Me too. I believe in intellectual debate, but coming to a site that says it is first and foremost a site for God, it seems like calling religion “magical nonsense” and the faithful, “loser adherents” would be a little anathema to the principles of the site. Just my thought...

There's nothing "intellectual" about throwing buckets of perjoratives, IMHO.

You are, of course, quite right. Maybe a better way to put it would be “I believe in recognizing differing viewpoints.” The perjoratives are adding insult to injury in context, but ironically, it’s all some people have up their sleeves.
