But I assume that what you have in mind is the fact that the atheist label is a slur used by religious chauvinists and mild bigots. Calling somebody an atheist even for general rational criticism of undesirable religious practices is the only expression of religious bigotry that is still tolerated in today's society. These people do not have a genuine commitment toward practicing secularism and pluralism. Cheers, Santosh
