See here is point, you should. In a Liberal Democratic society everyone has the right to believe what they want to believe. We should honor that no matter how foolish we may believe other's beliefs to be. Of course you also have the right to laugh in their faces if you feel the need, but you should be the bigger man and just be respectful and move on.
Put yourself in their shoes, they probably laugh at you for thinking God is the "imaginary man in the sky."
I understand it gets annoying with a lot of "born agains" and people like that who are always trying to push their religious beliefs on everyone else, but then its their right, and you know maybe they have good intentions, if they didn't care about you they wouldn't try to "convert" you.
I suppose I feel like I have no right to judge them when I am always trying to push my political beliefs on others.
