I, however, feel absolutely no pressure to even begin to talk about my own beliefs on the subject, since you have already proven that you are the kind of person that doesn't respect another person's beliefs.
You always have to tip-toe when you are talking about other people's beliefs. They are the most useful and the most dangerous thing in the world. If you ignore or dispute them, they could end up killing you, but if properly nurtured could cause the birth of something new and potentially wonderful to this planet.
Attacking someone's beliefs is the same thing as pointing a gun at them in many ways. The things that keep someone going are much more mental than physical in my opinion.

Oh god, just say you're a theist and you dislike them atheists for making you feel awkward about yourself!
Also, attacking beliefs SHOULD be encouraged. Or if some US loony State Governor decides to legalize the Inquisition, you think the right thing to do is to let him do it because it's his belief? Fuck no, nobody in their right mind wants the phrase "Nobody expects the Wisconsin Inquisition!" to be actually a reason for concern.
Now that the cold turkeys are being dropped, allow me to drop yet another one (someone quote me if he doesn't get it):
almightywood, you like to fuck chicks? Or dudes? Or kids? Or dogs? Or dead bodies? Or trees? Or don't you fuck at all? Or are you to give an "I consider all possibilities and don't eliminate any but don't take a stance on any" answer? Just give me a fucking answer that isn't a completely washed-out Descartes' philosophical load of crap.
Edit: I know, not the best example, but I want to hear some certainty from this pansy.
