To start, you can’t chalk anything in psychology up to something so simple as “they’re just angry at themselves and taking it out on us.” Furthermore, Coyne’s thesis is not only completely at odds with my own personal experience—“faitheists” on the whole seem to prioritize a cooperative approach and rarely seem to respond in kind to the personal attacks some “New Atheists” heap on them—but it also goes against the only scientific evidence on the topic that I’ve seen.<ref>[http://chrisstedman.religionnews.com/2014/07/15/atheists-everyone-leave-psychoanalysis-disagreements/ Why atheists (and everyone) should leave psychoanalysis out of their disagreements - See more at: http://chrisstedman.religionnews.com/2014/07/15/atheists-everyone-leave-psychoanalysis-disagreements] by Chris Stedman</ref>}}

An irony of Coyne's railings against religion is his insistence that atheism is not a religion despite the evidence that it is a religion (see: [[Atheism is a religion]]).
