Well, you feel slighted perhaps cos you see New Atheists as your tribe, but I think the piece contains some interesting criticism.

So you're a reformist too. (As am I.) Well, the author's point is that reformations can be very bloody.

I don't disagree with that and I'm not sure New Atheists do either. Quite a lot of writing about religious sectarian violence.
