Atheism vindictivness I think is borne from religious ramrodding. The problem is, they're not punching back at an equivalent level of the original punch, so to speak. So they end up being louder then the ------- who got them pissed off to begin with.
In the end, when it comes to religion, no matter what ones stance is on it, I think this is the best thought to adapt:
Whatever your stance is on religion, its a lot like a lift in your shoes. If it makes you feel better, fine. Just don't ask anyone to wear your shoes.
edit: If people would just keep their ---- to themselves, the world would be a much nicer place.

Wait, what's this... I agree with Ducimus? Well I guess I do!
Seriously though, I think your last sentence nails it.
I don't believe in (a) God, but I also can't say I'm an atheist; I can't prove he doesn't exist, so I can't be sure.
But I gotta agree with what some people already said here; some Atheists can be just as aggressive in bringing their point across.
Like Ducimus said, people need to keep their beliefs for themselves. The only time I feel the need to argue about religion is when it interferes with politics. Aside from that, I say live and let live.
