The one in question would never concede religion *CAN* be responsible for intolerance, but even if it could (and it can't obviously ), then the fallback position is atheism is no different because of those evil Chinese atheists and Stalin argle bargle. Naturally this relies on the targeted audience being too stupid to realize atheism has exactly zero doctrine and/or dogma that even suggests intolerance, much less commands it.
