Wow...

Your first response to me is to criticize me (i.e. attacking the messenger rather than the message); and when I carify my position in response to this criticism...you attack me, personally, yet again.

Hmmmm........

Oh, don't act so shocked, sir. You came out swinging with great sweeping statements that seem to generalize all people who are religious. Yes, many people use religion as a weapon. And many others have not. Just like some atheists are respectful and some are not.

So don't be surprised, when you say snide things, when you receive statements in kind.

I made no such hasty generalizations...

Yes, many people use religion as a weapon.

Nice of you to acknowledge this; how ironic though after you criticized me for doing no less.

And many others have not. Just like some atheists are respectful and some are not.

Agreed.

Nevertheless, I argue, as self-evident by your and the other likeminded responses...you're interpreting this personally.

Neither the display nor I have made any specific declarations as to who individually or by group is what and is not regarding violence and religion.

So don't be surprised, when you say snide things, when you receive statements in kind.

Your personal fallacious interpreation...as with theirs...and not what I stated (i.e. strawman argument).
