Oh, one more thing
Just as not all religious people are rabid, fundamentalist warmongers, all atheists are not bigoted, unyielding...well, warmongers. I think the point is that those that are</> get a lot of attention, and the ones with the microphones are the ones that catch people's eyes. It's not that Hitchens, Harris and Dawkins are the majority of atheists, but they can be taken that way since they're the only atheists getting the spotlight. (In that aspect, that of getting media attention, they are very like those loudmouthed, haranguing neoconmen who've hijacked the whole concept of religion.) That's what makes them a problem, at least as I see it.
