No I see that Bruno's point is valid if atheism is equated with physicalism and the negation of the Abrahamic god (as he does here)... But it is a narrow view... most atheist would agree that they are agnostic on first cause and about what is the reality (those who do not have really in fact a religious attitude made of beliefs). He even point in the sentence you quote " Atheism, *******as I know it*******, is....". On the fact you're an asshole... again my mistake, it's simply a true fact and cannot be part of your list... I even wonder if a fact could be truer than that.
