Perhaps someone should explain to this person what YA! is for.
Make sure you dumb it down enough.
Maybe draw pictures.

You might notice, stronzo, that my original question was actually a very good one.
Another hypocrite. You didn't attack the theist when she used the same tactic against me.
Do you guys even notice your own hypocrisy?
seriously.

I think she feels threatened that her intellect isn't quite up to par.

Although I agree with most of your conclusions I wonder if you realize that pointing out peoples flaws in thinking the way that you do puts them in a defensive frame of mind. This in turn closes the mind to new ideas mainly because if we feel threatened (either physically or emotionally) the fight or flight response is triggered and we go into self preservation mode. Saying that they do it to you is a flawed argument, two wrongs do not make a right. If all of your arguments hinge on the assumption of flawless logic then you might consider applying logic to the idea of your equivalent retaliation responses.

I think a lot of people can't handle it if everyone doesn't share his/her viewpoint on everything. Personally I think that would be really boring. I like listening to what others have to say. I may not agree with them, but I do listen and respect their opinions.

Didn't you know the only things that are ok are the ones she agrees with?
Not that I'm sucking up here, but I thought you're question was completely valid.

Ridicules isn't it? They don't consider that they aren't respecting other's freedom and life values when they preach and try and impose their values on others. (eg: abortion laws)
But if you dare to criticize them they cry "You're not respecting my religion". It's pathetic!

because they wanted to make somebody look stupid, but they're too lazy to actually make a real statement.

Perhaps we should ask honest questions instead of engaging in shape-shifting hyperbole in an attempt to self-aggrandize. Pretty thin-skinned, there, eh?
Oh, and the sun rising (the rotation of the earth) is not falsifiable...
