Nah, I'm a 'walls' kinda fella. I had some Theists tell me that I should be burned alive or gassed to death for my Atheism and as I understand it there are even those who'd try to slice my head off with a rusty bread knife if afforded the opportunity.
I guess that I might consider a draw-bridge as a compromise but I'd send you across first if you'd be cool with that...
If that's the experience you've had, then I don't blame you for feeling as you do. All i can do is apologize to you on their behalf. How they behaved is really not right at all. But please know that many of us are just average, everyday folks just trying to do our best in life like you.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
