No matter what you might think, I don't lump all Christians/theists into the same pot. You are barely on the same spectrum as someone like Hinds.
I 'do' though think reli ...[text shortened]... t, but can't apologise for holding that view, though appreciate how this could be angst causing.
I failed to answer this after you replied (in my defense I can only say that I have a lot of stuff on my plate), but your answer is appreciated. I get that we don't believe the same things about religion, but I have the same problem with many Christians here, too. I do not expect any atheist to apologize. But it's like saying to an American, "Hey, America sucks!" You're gonna get a fight. And I don't see atheists making a habit of telling Americans that America sucks, even if they believe so. Well, maybe the impolitic do. Anyways, thanks for replying.
