Hey Frank...

[AtheistCrusader]

5. He's being bombastic to sell his book.

It will sell well with religious audiences desperate for any weakness in the atheistic worldview and his job is to sell his books.

He's not stupid. He knows better.

But he's also a raging asshole for the way he complains about atheists who are, in reality, just trying to shore up the firewall between church and state. He's handing the religious ammo to use against atheists. For that he's a dick.
