>Because you found him to be off-putting? Or you found his arguments to be weak?
It was the juxtaposition of the hubiris against the weakness of the arguments. I'm generally put off by people who think they're much smarter or stronger than they really are, and who use it to bully others.
>What about your religious views would you say are "radical"?
To give one example, I now believe non-Abrahamic religions (or a lack thereof) should be entirely illegal.
I did not hold any beliefs even remotely as fringe back before discovering Mr. Repzion, Richard Dawkins, Jackyln Glenn and The Amazing Atheist, Onision as a kid back in ~2011.
After that my impression of atheists gradually soured and I began to observe that in some sense, their attitude was not restricted merely to speech despite what they might dishonestly claim, and that their positions and the demand for that content reflected society's general attitude towards religious people.
I began to understand that this is natural for all groups, tribes etc, so it would be naive for me to allow myself to be on the backfoot.
