Where are all of the "moderate" or "rational" theists who say, "I disagree with you on a lot of things but I share your concerns over this soil of mass stupidity that people who claim my religion have fertilized."
If I were ever to become a theist again I can only imagine that my affinities would remain where they do now as an atheist.
