After all, how many of us would let it slide if someone said, I know I have no evidence to provide for the existence of the fairies that dance naked in my garden at midnight, but I still believe in them and their cavorting beneath moonbeams.
No delusion is above reproach, no matter how kind the individual is.
I'd want to be friends with Mr./Ms./Mrs./whatever moonbeam fairy because their world is so much more interesting than mine and their belief isn't appreciably harmful.
While I find god belief silly, I'm not going to chastise any theist who admits how illogical it is. Why would I? I'm not a heathen proselytizer. My goal in life isn't to bring new people into the un-flock.
Moreover, in my experience, this kind of theist is mostly benign. Their belief is usually a source of personal comfort rather than the foundation of their entire worldview. These generally aren't the people who point at the bible in order to justify heinous shit.
Ooh! Someone else who enjoys Live!
Disappointing theists since 1968!
