It's my opinion, I gained by theological studies. I also opine that the nastiness of some AF participants would be moderated by religious faith.
It's been my experience that nasty people who become religous remain nasty, they just don't use as many 'dirty' words while they are about it. It has not been my observation that people who are nice when they are religous turn nasty when they deconvert, although they tend to become less prone to worry about using 'clean' language.
