No I don't really think that, so in case anyone was really offended even
the slightest, I apologize. My intent was only to demonstrate a point.

I have friends who are believers (even a buddhist, a friend's wife from
Thailand), and I get along fine with them. None of them tries to turn my
head constantly, and I try not to crack inappropriate jokes about religion
and so forth. To me, religion is basically not an issue at all. Bad manners
are.
