This claim of stereotyping is not a valid one

Then why did you yourself say that's what you were doing?

Again, your argument is basically "I haven't thought of any way that makes sense, so there isn't any." This is what I meant when I referred to your presumption that your life experience is all-encompassing. If you can't even acknowledge that there may be other ways of thinking (rather than pre-judging anything I could say), you're not really listening.

I wasn't describing you, I was describing religious people in general and how I, as an atheist, and others, should go about treating their religious beliefs in order to best undermine them by way of first understanding them.

So...you were describing religious people "in general," I'm a religious person, but you weren't describing me? At least have the courage of your convictions, especially if you're presumptuous enough to have "undermining" religious beliefs as a goal. The sheer arrogance that it takes to both be so certain about the nature of the universe and to believe we all need to be saved by you is nothing short of incredible. I don't need your protection from myself, thanks.
