Intolerant was actually in reference to: "Harris has been criticized by some of his fellow contributors at The Huffington Post. In particular, RJ Eskow has accused him of fostering an intolerance towards faith, potentially as damaging as the religious fanaticism which he opposes."

in·tol·er·ance
Function: noun
1 : the quality or state of being intolerant

No parody here.

Ignorant - SH calls himself ignorant in the article: "Any intellectually honest person must admit that he does not know why the universe exists. Secular scientists, of course, readily admit their ignorance on this point."

Fool: Atheism is defined by Webster's New World Dictionary as, "1. the belief that there is no God, or denial that God or gods exist. 2. godlessness". An atheist, therefore, is a person who believes that there is no God. The Bible confirms this in Psalm 14:1 - The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God.
