pledge

I'm going to make some commitment, as one of the growing number of atheistic yahoos writing screeds on the web, not to ever say someone is stupid just for believing in gods. Although I find occasional use of terms like "faith-addled" cathartic at times, I recognize that many intelligent and sincere people have come to the conclusion that some religion or religion-like thingy is true. It is a position I believe to be incorrect, but that demands open discussion, not disparagement and dismissal.
