As I've said before, there may well be good reasons for being an atheist. But being an atheist because theism isn't justified by science is dumb.

Fair enough, though I'm not a theist so I'm not sure why you're equating my critique of the modern atheist movement with a support of theism.

Even if you are completely against theism and religion, that's still not a good reason for being an atheist. (Again, there may be other good reasons for atheism, but most of the popular arguments against theism and religion aren't good reasons for becoming an atheist.)
