I think the difference is that a lot of people were raised in a religious environment, and later decided (IMO based on their level of education, no offense) that they simply didn't believe the fairytales. Then they spend the rest of their lives having religious people try to "save them". Meanwhile, the religious folk never make an attempt to understand, and perhaps its simply not possible for them.

I think I'm right in my beliefs, but will still take the time to listen and engage with an open mind, and if my mind changes over time, then so be it - I'm not scared of believing something new.

I'm just not quick to dismiss it.

You believe whatever works for you. I believe that its' all science and chance, no supreme power. But as long as you keep your preaching to yourself and don't judge me for mine, then that's all well and good.
