You can't humiliate someone into changing their mind, especially something so critical to their identity. Minds are changed slowly, with love. With conversations and questions that make them think about it later. If you dunk on someone, they'll just remember how mad you made them what an asshole you are. If you tactfully ask them questions that expose their own hypocrisy, you might just trigger a shower thought epiphany.

As an atheist who grew up in the buckle of the biblebelt, Christians often took this exact attitude to our ilk and it fucking sucked to live with.

Thank you! I couldn't remember where I found this one but it hits me.

Source? I'm afab and fucking sick of being told this with a flimsy hand wave of 'biology'. Give me some stats.

Me too. Thank you.

I thought it was an optimistic take on atheism but hey who knows
