From the guidelines: "don't be snarky".

I disagree strongly with the grandparent comment, but this is about as useful as commenting "Congratulations on getting your Doctorate of Sacred Theology. Glad you've single handedly debunked a millenium of study with your belief" would be when I comment that I'm an atheist.

FWIW, this comment falls afoul of the guidelines as well, and is even less useful since I did follow my opening with a real discussion. To quote the guidelines, report it to the moderators if you feel it's sufficiently problematic.

Have a good one!

I didn't say that your comment was an egregious violation of the guideline - had it been, I'd have reported it instead.

I reminded you that the guideline exists because it's good advice in this case, and had you edited your comment to get rid of the snark (as the guidelines suggest), you could have had a chance of persuading instead of alienating its audience. Too bad.
