This is a question Bullshit and Bullshitters

We've had questions about lies and liars in the past, but this time we're asking about the sort of fantasist who constantly claims they've got a helicopter in the garden or was "second onto the balcony at the Iranian Embassy siege". Tell us about the cobblers you've been told, or the complete lies you've come out with.

Thanks to dozer for the suggestion

I think what he's defending
is being open-minded and humble as to the status of one's personal beliefs, rather than being arrogant and condescending.

Precisely this.

Yet you post in such an arrogant and condescending way
Perhaps that's the issue here.

I respond to patronising, ill-informed accusations strongly, such as "just because you don't understand science", yes.
I don't see how that's arrogant or condescending, though. Particularly in light of my apology of the post being clear that it was just a bit of fun and having a dig.

Just a bit of a laugh - that's all - a bit of teasing.

So you made an arrogant and condescending OP here
in response to...well, nothing. You just fancied a pop at atheists. Now you claim it's just a bit of fun and you're just teasing. But when atheists do it, that's what makes you angry. Right? Just so I'm clear on this.
