I am getting seriously fed the f*ck up with being sneered at and/or thought of as having the brains of a brick because I believe in God/Goddess/Entity and the current mindset seems to be you're only intelligent if you don't.
I don't blame you a bit for being offended. I'm a hard atheist with no mystical beliefs whatsoever, and my eldest son is an intelligent, Torah-observant Jew whom I obviously love and respect deeply. Having philosophical differences with someone should not be expressed by denigrating that person. I don't have to respect your beliefs, nor you mine. I do respect you, and your right to believe as you wish.
