At the same time I found it very sad that so many atheists would 'double-down' on the tooth fairy/Christian God comparison. Others tried to distance themselves from the insult by saying they could respect the person without respecting their beliefs. That doesn't work. By implication they are saying that the admirable people on my list were too stupid to dismiss a childish belief.
When you act like a dickweed in your opening sentence, don't expect us to grant you any ground. Get over yourself and stop playing the victim.
