In need of a more humbleness. Why condemning the Theistic position makes no sense.

If by this you mean why should their beliefs be a private matter, then the answer is that while that would be preferred, most of us aren't suggesting that. Do what you will amongst your peers.

We are suggesting, however, that they not attempt to legislate their beliefs, discriminate against those that don't share those beliefs, retard scientific progress, teach religion in public schools as fact, and knock on my fucking door trying to draft me into their death cult.

Practice your religion, sing your songs, wear your shirts, vote the way you want to vote, just don't involve me in it.
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great
