I "report" on this conflict from a purely personal perspective - I see it in blogs, on forums, among my friends in the Swedish Humanist Association. Many atheists seem to have very different approaches to how to promote a naturalistic worldview, and some of them let this get in the way of doing their thing, and instead they end up whining at others more than they do constructive work. vjack, Thanks for your comment.

I think the thing to realize about atheists is that we cannot unite under the banner of nonbelief any more than those of us who do not believe in Santa Claus would unite under that banner. There has to be something else that brings us together, something in which we do believe and value.

And I see you made the same experience as the church have. If you din’t know ““being in the same boat” is an expression from the Bible for the church feel free to use it.

So i respect atheists and religious people who make charts or maps of their own views. Many misunderstandings can be avoided, and the no 1 perk: One can point out something which the opponent has written, while the opponent can't deny the the whole thing, saying: I never said that particular thing!
