Trouble dealing with family about my unbelief

[Rokcet Scientist]

Excuse me! Believing a great lie is to be 'commended'? Why?

You speak from a position of supposed enlightenment

Since you're guessing that you speak from baseless assumption. I.o.w. you're biased.

yet demonstrate the opposite.

Since that is continuing a baseless assumption, you're prejudiced.

Just like all believers.

And conveniently you avoid to answer the question why believing in nonsense is to be "commended".

Good luck getting that toothpaste back into the tube.
