Unicorns as comparison is offensive, because it's offensive to think that you might be worshiping the propositional equivalent of a unicorn. Believers already think that other believers are dumb and/or irrational for believing in other unicorns, and quixotically, they think the same about atheists for not believing in -their- unicorns.....despite agreeing with them in regards to all the other unicorns.....because it's just so damned obvious, isn't it?
Well yes, yes it is.
