Because the belief in a god more often than not entails ridiculous, unreasonable and faulty logic. That's reason enough for someone who holds reason as something important and valuable, to try and stop ridiculous beliefs that are contrary to logic from flourishing.
It's not the lack of a belief in god that causes one to attack the faulty reasoning theists use, but the knowledge that the faulty reasoning affects others, directly or indirectly.
