to describe the tone of some atheists pushing their belief system. And as that article makes clear, that ad is seen as soft-peddling those beliefs, not being strident, though some atheists are still uncomfortable with that.

There are a lot of examples of strident proselytizing of atheism in this forum.

It's in condescension, the assumption and often the explicit statement that people who hold religious beliefs are stupid, or at least illogical, and therefore inferior to atheists.

As I've pointed out elsewhere here, there are a lot of widely admired Democratic leaders who consider themselves people of faith.

When you say people of faith are stupid or illogical, you're not just attacking Jerry Falwell, Jr., or Robert Jeffress.

You're also inevitably leveling that criticism at Democratic leaders such as Obama and Biden and Hillary Clinton.
