Mr. Dictionary agrees with you, Leigh. But we knew that.

Not only that, but if the author had any purpose in that piece besides venting or antagonizing people, he's almost certainly failed to achieve it. Yes, I've met Christians like that, in person and on-line. I'd like to think I'm pretty good at flaying them, when I can be bothered. Had a good ol' time of it, too, for a while.

But by painting the picture that each and every religious person out there is like that, he loses whatever sympathy points he may have gotten.
