Someone who has the guts to stand up to and criticize some aspects of religion, which for some reason or another remains a complete taboo in our society.
Notice how critics of capitalism aren't called "angry socialists", critics of modern liberalism aren't (or at least shouldn't be) called angry conservatives, etc.
Whenever someone deals with religion, however, he must don kid gloves.
Of course, there will always be those immature twats who take it to the extreme- i admit Brian Flemming is probably one of them. But you still shouldn't discount every one of their messages - keep an open mind! (though not too much so)
It should be noted that the vast majority of religion-critics don't "hate" religion - they're just tired of its near-immunity to criticism and debate.
Outside of religion, cutting off a baby boy's foreskin is most often seen as despicable and wrong. But once the protective shelter of faith is granted, it becomes a taboo to say anything about it.
Another example: the drug peyote is normally illegal, but some native americans out west are allowed to use it for one of their religious rituals - also, voodoo worshippers of a certain haitian-american sect are allowed to sacrifice certain animals (i'm not making this up)
It's weird how the moment the "faith" cover is given, a person's actions are suddenly almost off limits. Somehow, we've just agreed as a society that that's how we should work. And anyone who questions this norm is quickly labeled an "angry atheist".
Odd, don't ya think?

1st day of April, All Fools Day
Hooray For That Judge In Florida, an atheist became incensed over the preparation for Easter and Passover holidays and decided to contact the local ACLU about the discrimination inflicted on atheists by the constant
celebrations afforded to Christians and Jews with all their holidays while the atheists had no holiday to celebrate.
The ACLU jumped on the opportunity to once again pick up the cause of the godless and assigned their sharpest attorneys to the case.
The case was brought before a wise judge who after listening to the long, passionate presentation of the ACLU lawyers, promptly banged his gavel and declared, "Case dismissed!"
The lead ACLU lawyer immediately stood and objected to the ruling and said, "Your honor, how can you possibly dismiss this case? Surely the Christians have Christmas, Easter and many other observances. And the Jews--why in addition to Passover they have Yom Kippur and Hanukkah...
and yet my client and all other atheists have no such holiday!"
The judge leaned forward in his chair and simply said "Obviously your client is too confused to know about or for that matter even celebrate the atheist holiday!"
The ACLU lawyer pompously said "We are aware of no such holiday for atheists, just when might that be, your honor?"
The judge said, "Well it comes every year on exactly the same date---April 1st!"
"The fool says in his heart, 'There is no God.'" - Psalm 14:1, Psalm 53:1
HOORAY FOR THAT JUDGE

A modern teenager who claims to not believe in God. Most of these teens don't have faith because
1). They spend too much time on the internet, (Tumblr), where people force their opinions on you, so in the end they get sucked into believing something because "It's cool, man."
2). They never get what they want, i.e. lots of friend and beauty, so they blame God.
3). They refuse to have even the slightest bit of faith because movies and media nowadays make it hard to believe anything.
Teenage Atheists also tend to be huge feminists. Can't find another hobby? Why not bitch about women's rights for no apparent reason?
And lastly, Teenage Atheists are also liberals. Again with the internet pushing opinions on you, they surround themselves with pro-abortion, pro-feminism, pro-marijuana, pro-atheist atmospheres.
Woman #1: Geez, nobody has faith anymore. Especially these fucking soft grunge teens.
Woman #2: The term you are referring to is Teenage Atheist, Carol.
Woman #1: Well, I guess God isn't in style anymore.

Someone who is an atheist but has a wide knolegde of science and religion. The evangelical atheist has choesen science over religion with good arguments as to why he or she has done so. It is basically a religion without a god.
(Looking at some of the other definitions i decided to post a half decent one. The other ones seem to look at evangelical atheists as assholes... that is not true. You will encounter some but at least they put forward logical arguments about their view unlike religious people. "Yeah well god said let there be light and it just appeared..." makes perfect sense.
Evangelical atheist - Hey im an atheist :D
OMFG WTF LOL UR OBVIUSLYY GHEY COZ ITS TRU DAT GOD WOZ MAKE DA WORLD COZ IT SEZ IN THE BIBLE SO UR RONG LOL
Evangelical atheist - But i have scientific evi..
NO DA BIBLE SEZ DAT IS RONG K BAI

The Atheist Helpline is a condescending term used to refer to Atheist Chatrooms ran by Christians on Discord. The term was coined by Darth Dawkins.
We are waiting for more people to come into the Atheist Helpline before we start the debate.

A poor kid that ironically is named Christian even though they're an atheist. They constantly have to deal with people asking "Hey Christian, Are you Christian" In which you say no, And they end up saying "Then who are you?" This tends to annoy the living hell outta them. So please, If you ask that to one, Stfu
Griffin: Hey Christian, Are you a Christian?
