My observance is from multiple posts. The reason I attempt to spar with you is because you are rational and a gentleman. In the spirit of refining dissent against small minded adherence to biblical 'fact' and repression of modern truth, there is space for the modern atheist to thrive. There is a less brazen and rude path you could follow to allow modern truths to self reform religion instead of inflaming the issue needlessly. I do not think it is a lost cause to create points of agreement rather than stress the most contentious arguments.

In a separate matter both my wife and I assisted Sister Mary Beth in Vatican research under Pope John on topics from Astronomy to Witchcraft in the modern age at Boston College.
