If someone flies in and makes insulting and ignorant noises then they deserve that reflecting back at them. The nature of this site means that this difficult subject gets addressed when, for me at least, it doesn't in real life. Well very rarely. Personally I sicken of both Christian (I don't see other theist representation) and atheist propaganda shoved in my face on places like Facebook. I just don't want to know.

Naw, don't blame maleness. I may be the one female you consider rude, but while many Christian males (not all here are polite) we have a couple rude Christian woman from time to time.

I think Rasetsu is right, it's often the complete disagreement that rankles as much as the tone.
If there is a god, I want to believe that there is a god.  If there is not a god, I want to believe that there is no god.
