I was a member of an atheist board for several years (basically saying many of the things you say here) and often christians would come in and tell us we were all backwards. Now of course, I knew of atheists there who would crash christian sites as well, so I guess it evens out.
I never did it myself though.
But in retrospect, I think for both sides, it was a case of people not being completely sure of their own beliefs needing to hash it out with others to confirm for themselves they really believed what they said they did.
