Everyone is entitled to their opinions, even though I don't always agree with them. I turn the other cheek when someone is just trying to get a rise out of me.
As for my views of people, my perception and judge of character is decent enough. It's not perfect, but it serves me well and will get better as I use it. Nothing you can say will speed this process up.

Seems to me your missing the point. The conversation was not about defending your beliefs to ME, but rather to zealot Christians like Isaac. In fact, I specifically stated "try telling Issac his god is just one in the crowd, nothing special and not any better than yours".
Now obviously the chances of his response being altered because of our open dialog have increased significantly, but one has to wonder why you'd change the subject in the first place, when you have so much faith your judgement of his character, but more importantly, what his response would be. Remember, he was calling folks (probably you) Socialist before my arrival.....I merely stepped in and showed everyone how the game is really played.
