One of several things could be going on here. You could be quote-mining, misreading, or just plain wanting to pick a fight. I'm not sure what yet
I think it is more of just wanting to see how much back peddling you will do and how much you trip yourself up whilst doing it.

Re: How do these ideas co-exist?
Hi Yenmor,
"The lady doth protest to much, me thinks."
Airing out your boyfriend and his familie's dirty laundry on a anonymous internet forum is not a way to reconcile the way you feel about it. This has nothing to do with the Dunning-Krueger effect and perhaps more to do with you not wanting to appear elitist and judgemental. Which is precisely how many fundies act.
