It's not about being or participating in debates...its about starting them...A LOT. And mentioning  your atheism / attacking religion at the slightest reference to it. Believe me, i have witnessed this million times where there was no debate to begin with. They feel threatened by the very mentioning of anything religious so they attack it relentlessly, which screams their insecurity about their own beliefs. Now, if a religious person made a topic regarding atheism, i could somehow understand this behaviour.But that's almost never the case. Its almost always other way around

 

I'm questioning this sentence: 

"It does show it is a very crumbling belief, at least among majority of it's followers (on interwebz)"

You're making a statement about the majority of atheists on the internet. This is flawed because you haven't encountered the majority of atheists on the internet, nor have you encountered a representative sample of the majority of atheists on the internet. The only atheists on the internet you've encountered are the ones who have revealled that they were atheists, meaning they were probably in a debate. You missed a huge sample of internet atheists who simply don't care about religion debates, who have probably never cared to reveal their atheism. So your assertion about the majority of internet atheists is a giant assumption.
