Initially I was thinking my answer was NO, but as i was pondering a response, I realized my answer is YES. They are worshipping a non-existent deity and most feel the need to impress their belief onto me and some even quite vehemently. So yes, I do prejudge a theist from what I have come to expect of them.
There is no god and if one believes in a god, that does suggest a person unable to think for themselves or comprehend logic and in a lot of cases even science. They are 'battered children', "Daddy, I love you. Please don't send me to hell, I won't do it again. Please make the 'bad' logic go away. Please make the 'bad' science go away.". I feel sorry for them and wish I could help, but it is beyond my power to do anything but just be there when they are ready.
(This does not include deists, but they are just as guilty of worshipping or even acknowledging an invisible sky-daddy. They do not, however, attempt to follow any sort of dogma that forces them to impress their belief onto me.)

You make people miserable and there's nothing they can do about it, just like god.

Science is like a blabbermouth who ruins a movie by telling you how it ends. There are some things we don't want to know. Important things.
