So if that's something that you care about (and it may not be, I get that), it's important to consider that these individuals come in more shapes and sizes than you think.

Oh I know - and yes I used to care, but I've used up all my patience in trying to be nice or understanding when it comes to dealing with these folks. I think the lack of any empathy or understanding for their position or views has been chipped away by the now weekly 'confrontations' with them (fundie literalists) outside my church or at my doorstep... six months of the constant "witnessing" has been enough, so I'm done with bothering to 'play nice' and have decided to treat them exactly as they have treated me and mine over the last two years.
