You're likely to be surrounded by them through sheer force of numbers. Have you ever wondered whether or not the good relations you share with them might have something to do with simply being assumed to be part of the fold, in some way or another? At the very least "well, he hasn't found god yet, poor little guy, but someday he will, and he seems nice". That shit is unbearably insulting to me.
No, that thought has never crossed my mind. It's not like that. I guess I'm not as cynical as you.
