Reply #54: What many of the people whining about respect don't get [View All]

Is that I have no real hope of changing THEIR minds or getting them to see reason. Their delusions are too deeply rooted for that, and I lack the infinite time and patience to wait for them to come to their senses. I'm much more concerned that people who have not made up their minds about things see their bullshit for what it is...bullshit, and that lies and nonsense don't go unchallenged because people are concerned about bruising the delicate feelings of belivers, woo-wooers and their apologists. If you say silly, ridiculous, illogical, demonstrably false things about your religious beliefs, expect the same respect that you would show towards a teabagger who claims that Barack Obama is a foreign-born Muslim.
