Truth be told, me beliefs problay aren't that far from Cheeses, and the only part I take exception with is his "I need to prove that what you belive is wrong" attitude.
As for acknowleging the norm, Cheese made a blanket statement that relgion promotes hate. He also claims to hold to the scientific method which is one exception proves the assumption wrong.
He's my exception, the Dalli Lamma. Therefore he's wrong.
Some religions promote hate, fine I'll accept that, but the blanket statements that they all do is wrong.

Well I was under the impression that science was used to determine a pattern and establish the norm, but I could be wrong. That being said, there are exceptions that science can't account for and that's what faith is based on, correct?
I wasn't calling you the "religious type". It just seems so common to see those with blind faith say 'See, there's an exception, so you're wrong and I'm right.' I think religion is good for some people, but I also think it lulls people into not believing what's right in front of them.
Plus you get all the weirdos who think they see Jesus in a **** stain on a concrete wall...
