"Well I'll ignore your first comment ..."

Good. It was meant as a joke.

Here's a shocker: I agree with your sentiments.

The religion a person wears on their sleeve has absolutely nothing to do with the kind of person they are. That was kinda my point. That, and don't try to frame a discussion as "historical" and then annoit the person being discussed with a direct line to gawd's ear. At that point, the train jumps onto a different track.

It's like saying, "Let's talk about these apples," when the bowl is filled oranges.

But, yes, otherwise intelligent people still insist on attributing actions and events to invisible beings. If they are "believers," you can't have an "intelligent discussion" about religion with them because none of their arguments are based in reality.
