Raising Freethinkers has what I found to be a very good response to that. Make him examine irrationality in his own thinking. Is he afraid of the dark? Does he get annoyed if his food isn't prepared in a particular way? Can he see or touch or in any way explain WHY he holds those ideas? And if not, does that make him stupid? If he can relate his own capacity to believe irrational things, he will be less likely to judge others for doing the same.
