    That transaction happens one by one and is solely between God and the individual.
    Its as easy to cast dispersion on "religion" as it is to cast it on any other human activity. Its best to separate faith from religion. Religion may be a fine way to help you come to understand God better (or a shitty one depending on which one) but anything thats not between you and God is meaningless.

    There is nothing more insulting to any GOD that might happen to exist...

    ...than to be thought of as that cartoon god described in the Bible.

    So, YES, atheists and agnostics show more respect for any god that might exist than anyone who claims the god of the Bible IS GOD.

    The fact that substantial number numbers of Trump-worshipping evangelical Christians refuse to get innoculated for the worst pandemic in a century is prima facie proof of my statement.

    Atheists actually avoid religious discussions, in most cases. They have learned that religious people will judge them badly and may be aggressive. Fellow workers will treat them badly. It can hurt advancement. So we keep quiet.

    I do not think the individuals are an insult to job.

    I do not put that much thought into individual, obscure message board posters. I am broadly interested in the great intellectual thinkers and philosophies of atheism, of Christianity, of Confucianism, of Hinduism, of Daoism, etc., and I have the posts to prove it.
