Delicate Offers a Truce

[Delicate]

On reflection, I've found this thread illuminating.

I've seen some people respond with grace and restraint, to whom I want to extend the same grace and restraint back (and more).

The people you have not mentioned, are those that originally responded with grace and restraint, but were soon disappointed with your intellectual dishonesty. 

And yet, I've seen some respond with rage and insults. Not just passive cynicism, but a demeaning sort of cynicism that actively tries to pollute good faith dialogue.

Some of these may have started with grace and restraint. 

Others may be a bit "world weary" of the long history of theists that come here, that begin by asking a few "innocent" questions, but soon become condescending, intellectually dishonest, butt holes.

Then there are those in between. Those who WANT to respond in good faith but have unrealistic expectations of me doing 40 years of penance, or giving up on what I take to be true as derived from reason and evidence, etc.

And yet, you continue to fail to provide us with the reason and evidence you claim you have for your beliefs.

You're welcome to substantiate your claims.
