Why would I get worked up over something I think is imaginary?

The nice thing about being an atheist, for me at least, is that I look upon all religions from the worship of Mithras to modern Protestantism in the same way.

I think they are silly.

Jazzman was just pushing your buttons by being bigoted against Christians (I assume you claim to be Christian) to show you what it feels like to have someone tell you people you care about (i.e. the "Virgin" Mary) are sexually immoral and worthless.

Obviously he hit a tender spot.

Myself, looking at the whole wearing a dress, living with 12 men, and never knowing the touch of a woman thing, I think Jesus was gay. Look at all the time "the apostle that Jesus loved" spent with his head on Christ's breast.

Hmmm...
