FWIW, I agree with N's definition of agnosticism.
Jim, your acceptance of the word ‘atheist’ in this instance makes no distinction between an atheist who is tolerant of other’s beliefs and one who is not – and the questioner wants a term for one who is not. ‘Atheist’ therefore, does not fit the bill.

An atheist can be an antitheist but the one described in the OP isn’t – so that really is irrelevant.
"I get that but it starts off by asking "a person with no religion...". Well, isn't that atheism?"

No, not everyone who isn't part of a religion is an atheist.
Jim, just spotted an error in my last post.

*the questioner wants a term for one who is not [tolerant].*

...should have been one who is tolerant.
No problem. Typos are common on this site.
Non-believer
Heathen
Infidels
Outsider
non-proselytiser
Shruggist.
The belief that nothing is or can be known about the nature or existence of God, is a good reason to be agnostic; but the consequence (and true definition of an agnostic) has to be a belief that a God or Gods may or may not exist. One ought not confuse cause with the effect.
A non believing live and let live tolerist.
OG, that isn't the true definition of an agnostic. See my post at 13:29 Thu.
I would just say "atheist" rather than "antitheist".
Atheist doesn't fit, pixie.
I have just read the rest of the thread... there is no reason why not though. A person with no belief, doesn't necessarily prevent others from having them. I don't... but I think my definition above covers both options.
Pixie, the OP wants a word that applies specifically to tolerant atheists. Atheists come in a variety – not all necessarily tolerant. Therefore ‘atheist’ doesn’t fit the bill. I'm pretty sure there isn't a specific word for what the OP describes.
No, I suspect not just one word, although he/she asks for a "term". Maybe tolerant atheist, then.
A compatible person.
'Tolerant' was my suggestion.
Confused and / or boring.
