Which includes judgment and condemnation of groups with differing ideologies (including atheists and counter-belief systems).
True, but we aren't talking about them. Theists have their problems obviously. We don't always have to look at others before looking at ourselves. Or justify our faults by finding faults in others.
In this case, if Atheists wouldn't say believers are wrong for their faith in God but that they simply don't believe in God and are very skeptical over any faith or first hand experience as knowledge of God. That would be far more respectable.
I think humans don't like more neutral point of views and always feel like they have to take a fight or flight. They feel like they have to take sides.
It doesn't have to be that way.
