I believe most of you are former believers or grew up in forced religion, etc. Do you find yourself blanket/generalizing all "theists" in the same vein? All who believe a God exists is silly, moronic? Or do you take each theist is their own person and assess your thoughts towards them on how they respond/treat you? Maybe it's a mix?
I only ask because I see a lot of ad hominem attacks in responses when responding to theists on here. Personally, I don't care if someone calls me silly, moronic, etc. I'm geniunely curious if that's how you view all theists in general, if so why?
I don't really care what someone believes so long as they treat me decently and keep their beliefs out of our laws. I don't generalize about believers because I have many in my own family and understand that they are each individuals with their own outlooks.
