Let's not be unfair. PZ appropriates the entirety of science, too. PZ pretends to be the representative of the sciences, especially of developmental biology, and yet he hasn't done research in over 10 years.
He's following in the footsteps of Reverend Dawkins which for him has been a good gig.
Philosophizing and polarizing must be better than that sciency stuff.
Depends on whether you enjoy authority and the ability to give marching orders at the click of a keyboard, or whether you enjoy hard work and discovering new things.

You must own the merch - all the merch: books, t-shirts, thongs with a big red A, website subscriptions, etc.
How can you be a good atheist© without it?

science will enable us to annihilate ourselves in thermonuclear war and then it will have taken away religion
That will depend on whether or not the cockroach sapiens that replace us are religious or not.

If I really believed these dudes were atheist evangelicals, the part the pose, I would find that distasteful and strange -much like grown-ups playing Rational Response Squad. When you distill it down though, they are really no different than English professors who write pulp fiction. Ev'ry body gots to get paid.
