I'm as much as an atheist as you presumably are but you should have respect for people deserving of it, regardless of their beliefs.

Why would it give us a bad name? I've seen plenty of arguments that religious conmen/terrorists/door to door preachers aren't representative of religious people in general so why should an over-the-top aggressive atheist all of a sudden paint us all in a bad light?
