Somebody posed the following question (and I paraphrase): "If somebody were to ask you not to take God's name in vain in their presence, would you agree to do so?" Most of the respondents -- whether theist or atheist -- said that they would; after all, it was a minor inconvenience, and it's just good manners.
This Locrian fella took an extreme view, though. Here is his response:
Absolutely NOT. Most likely, if the request WAS polite, I feel it's my duty to politely request the complainer to stop believing in just bullshit. I would counter request that they actually go home and read their bible, beginning to end and quiz them the next day to see if they really had. If they DO read it, they wouldn't need religion, if they didn't I'd tell them that they really weren't a believer anyway.
People who request such a thing are only making their own version of their religion, like all so-called believers do. They're most likely thinking, "I'll get points from the big guy if I make someone stop.", or "If I allow this person to keep saying this, I'LL GO TO HELL!!!"
I really don't think it's polite to even believe in it, or smart, or responsible.
Now that's just needlessly abrasive. Even if you don't agree with their beliefs, only a first-class jackass would say that it's his duty to "politely request the complainer to stop believing in just bullshit." (Hey, I do think we sometimes have a duty to correct other people, but not in that way!)
This guy claims to be somewhat mature (in one thread, he was talking about a driving experience), but he comes across as a hostile ten-year-old.
