What a ridiculous comment. A flame war? Do we still live in the 90s?

It is clear I am being unfairly targeted for my views by you and this community.

You happen to disagree with what I am saying and are not creative or brave enough to come up with a meaningful response. Be honest with yourself.

Ive said nothing abhorrent. I defended my religious and spiritual beliefs against a community which is clearly very pro atheist.

Dont tell other people what to do and stop disrespecting others’ religious beliefs. Let’s start with that.

I don't disagree with what you're saying—but more importantly, that's beside the point. The point is that you shouldn't be crossing into calling names, attacking other people, or fulminating—especially when the topic is an emotional and divisive one, like religion.

Incidentally, it's generally a bad idea to identify the community as hostile. That comes from a cognitive bias which we all seem to have: we place greater emphasis on the things we dislike, and are more likely to notice them in the first place. The things that we consider favorable end up getting far less emphasis. This leads to false feelings of generality, and a negative sense of being surrounded by enemies. The people who disagree with you feel the same way, because they have the same bias (like I said, we all do).
