Gramme: RE: Tolerance & Atheists/Rationalists.
It sounds like you are pretty severely under informed on the stance of most atheists (certainly the most visible figureheads) on the idealised, liberal version of tolerance. Read practically any book by an atheist thinker and you'll soon realize that we stand fervently against religious moderates and others with credos of blanket tolerance because there are ideas that are demonstrably dangerous and harmful that cannot be conscionably defended under the banner of tolerance.
I suggest Sam Harris's The End of Faith, or if you're feeling a bit more adventurous Christopher Hitchens' God Is Not Great.
Please take the time to ensure that you're not totally misinformed the next time you'd like to speak on the tenets of atheism.
