You don't see an appreciable difference between your experience, where someone disagrees with you and calls you ignorant for that-and frankly, I really do think there's probably more to it than that- and mine, where someone disagrees with me and then tells me straight out that I don't disagree for the reasons I've stated, nor for any legitimate reason, but really just because I hate his god?
I have been accused of being disingenuous. Of not actually believing what I say I believe, or of pretending to my self that I believe something when I really believe differently.
It's whatever. Water under the bridge. Just saying there is plenty of that attitude to go around here from your side as well. At least Randy doesn't use profane, nasty language when he does it.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
