The full text: findingtruthtoday.typepad.com Insecurity is a feeling of general unease or nervousness that may be triggered by perceiving of oneself to be vulnerable in some way, or a sense of vulnerability or instability which threatens one's self-image or ego. Insecurity may help to cause shyness, paranoia and social withdrawal, or alternatively it may encourage compensatory behaviors such as arrogance, aggression, or bullying, in some cases.

From reading atheist tweets and blogs and from watching atheist YouTube videos it is very clear that atheists are emotionally insecure.
