How can you argue with this statement? “In my humble opinion — and this is meant as an observation, not a challenge — that disdain emerges from an almost subconscious conclusion that to believe in God too fervently betrays a certain intellectual infirmity.””

I find little there to argue with. The Bible clearly says pride contributes to unbelief.

But, if anyone says it's arrogant to have no doubts about one's own beliefs, I'd have to say he's wrong.

I believe most people have doubts. To say differently says we're not human.
