Well, with mutual respect for you, Guy, thank you for such a thoughtful play by play. I might offer a counterpoint earlier in the timeline though. Might you be making an assumption that he is refuting anything Jeff stated. I don’t see any attempt. It’s written in passive voice. I see a passing comment, that views Christians in a certain light and nothing was directed at Jeff. Even the “go ahead and believe your delusions” in context, was generalized at all believers. Dude seems to be making a passing comment about a topic, and generalizing about believers and the bible, not arguing or refuting. 

Your bro complains that people don’t “get him or make attempts to understand him”. I think thats the problem. Engage baiting, with religion is cause for misunderstandings, like putting “politics divide” in your bio and then posting political. I believe the first flawed assumption is that Jeff’s point was being refuted at all vs a passing comment and now we all get to see a tantrum. But hey, you know what they say about assume… anyway… that’s my take.
