Gotta say I agree with you on this, Mike. Who ever said that atheism means having to make everyone else believe the same as you?

The problem is, close-mindedness isn't restricted to creationists. When an atheist says "anyone who believes in god is an idiot" or something, that's being close-minded.
​
As an atheist I can and do accept that some highly intelligent people will disagree with my position. That doesn't make them ignorant. It simply means that they've chosen to predicate their beliefs on something different than what I've chosen.
