But there are many people here who post condescending and blanketed things about theists quite frequently as well. Personally I don't like either being done. But if you're ok with one side of the fence doing it, it doesn't make much sense to call out the other side for doing it as well. Otherwise it's a double standard and a bit hypocritical.
That's because you have the misguided belief that christianity is true and supported by evidence that would convince anyone who examines it. We're just calling a spade a spade, and asking for proof that we're wrong. And, not only are we not getting it, we're being insulted for even asking it and not believing the tripe submitted as evidence. Condescension is a reasonable response to bullshit. It's isn't to people who don't share your beliefs.

You may not "reapect" his views, but that doesn't mean he is trolling. I can assure you he is not a troll.
He does a great imitation, then.
