Hot take: atheism, in some of its acceptions, is a religion. Not all atheist are this way, but too many are simply with the belief that no god exists and that faithful people cannot be right and that what their doing is wrong.

The problem with that belief is that it's as intolerant and hateful as the most fanatical believers. And religion wars never have been a good thing.

That’s not hateful or intolerant. Hateful and intolerant isn’t disagreeing with you or even vocalizing a belief that you’re wrong. It’s certainly not voicing that a religion is harming others (I.e. wrong).
