Yes, but they use Islam to promote an anti-theistic goal. Atheism gets a bad reputation because of this.
What silence? What community? Some atheists like 'New Atheists' & some don't.I do. We don't share a belief system or tenets.

Obviously atheists and "New Atheists" share the same belief (their disbelief) but are not the same (see my house parallel).
-
You don't think a lack of faith and an opposition to faith are the same and neither do I. So what are we arguing about?

Why are they both called atheism? Dawkins is called an atheist, not an anti-theist while the latter is more correct.

You do not think this correctness is important while in real life it does. The most vocal determines the label & that's Dawkins.
-
I don't care about the label.
-
You and many atheists do not care. But at the same thing don't really like the public image of atheism. It's one or the other.

I am not part of a tribe called 'atheism' - people can evaluate me on my own actions and values.

Atheist describes my position on the existence of god. Anti-theist, my attitude towards god-beliefs. Humanist, my values
