One disputed assertion makes you contrarian?

My suspicion was that atheism was more about being against something (faith, or theism if you will) than being for nothing or believing not in God, this is what I meant. After reading many of the posts in these forums over the past few months I felt that many of interactions between 'atheists' and 'theists' was more like oil and water and antagonistic at times.
