I've only met one dickish theist, my brother-in-law, whom I've only seen not being a dick once, the day I first met him. Since then he's spent his time lashing out at his mother for being gay (while still happily taking her help when he was near homeless) and my wife for being an atheist. Seriously, you'd think after how much he's needed the help of his family to recover from his self destructive tendencies he'd be thankful for the support, but no, he instead just judges and judges and pushes away the very people who he'll need during his next catastrophic fall... which will be coming any day now.
This dude, by the way, recently left his church because they were emphasizing conciliation and respect for all people over telling the congregation how everyone who doesn't believe as he does will be going to hell to suffer forever. He literally left a church because it was nice, and the beliefs he'd consciously accepted depended on everyone who dared disagree with him suffering eternally. That revenge fantasy was core to his christianity, so much so that he couldn't attend a church without it. That's the sort of person he is.
