Her assertation is that she would have given an atheist a chance as a boyfriend--and her proof of evidence that all atheist men, not some--ALL are idiots (her words not mine) who don't know how to treat a woman in a relationship, was 2 men. That is absurd, it's illogical, it's a fallacy, and it's ridiculous. Does she have the right to be absurd? Yes. Could she have said "well I don't date them because our religious beliefs are different?" Yes. Instead, she decided to be absurd. I don't really see how you could defend that.

I can only speak for myself, but no. I have never tried to convert a Christian. I've never told one they were stupid. I've never refused to date a Christian, although I'm more cautious, as I'm not interested in converting myself. I've also never said that ANYONE is an idiot because of their beliefs. I said her logic was absurd, which it is--The issue a lot of atheists have with the religious is the treatment we get.
