It does. As a "Bible-hating, Christ-denying commie" (an Anglican) I know it full well. Even in this forum, which is heavily moderated, I am frequently accused of "denying a Creator" and only pretending to be a Christian in order to promote a hoax, etc. There is constant disrespect and hostility toward anyone who is not a right-wing fundamentalist evangelical. Such behavior does influence my responses--more than it should, undoubtedly.When a person is angry at someone, does it lead to his objective view of what that person says? When a person is prejudiced against a religion, does it not lead him to assume things about how the adherents of that religion behave? When a person disrespects another person's beliefs, does it not color everything he hears that person say?
