Re: Is Neo-Atheism The Way to Go? [Poll]
[ QUOTE ]
I'm not sure how or why the prefix "neo" is used. Most likely because it's come to stand for the new-age atheist who is more outspoken.

I'm not sure either, although I generally lump one "neo" in with the next, neo-con, neo-atheist, neo-nazi.
Neo has become synonymous with rude, intolerant, and downright nasty people, and I think in many cases with the term neo-atheist, it fits like a glove.
