Equating "that is not true" or "bullshit" to being militant is fucking absurd. If our species never questioned anything we'd still be dragging our knuckles. The reality theists do not want to face is that WE DO KNOW what causes god belief. Evolution and psychology explain why people make up and believe false things.
Humans SHOULD value rights, but that does not mean a claim by itself deserves to be valued.
I think we're agreeing?
