I can't help but think that people who ask questions like this aren't doing so in the pursuit of rational dialogue. Even with minimal effort and consideration, one should be able to recognize the inherent arrogance and perceived moral high ground that permeates these questions, not to mention their baseless and often contradictory assertions. People who are out to learn something usually don't ask questions like this. People ask questions like this in order to get a thinly-veiled jab in on whoever doesn't share their particular world view.
I simply have no desire to pretend that I respect that.
