You chose the right angle of attack (if, of course, you want to attack people), but you came up with an insupportable conclusion.
In A, I suggest that ridiculing someone's beliefs is disrespectful.
In B, I suggested that someone's slant (on anti-gay propaganda, I note you failed to mention) might lead them to deserve to be ridiculed. You assume that meant by me. Given point A, you assume incorrectly. Even if you assumed correctly, the worst you can accuse me of is disrespect.
From (possible) disrespect, you take a huge leap into questioning validity of viewpoints.
If you're going to argue with logic, use logic. If you're going to snipe on the internet because you have issues of your own, don't pretend to be using logic unless you actually are using it.
Woah woah woah! Why are you so Angered by this? Am I not allowed to ask Questions without You foamin?
You said that we shouldn't ridicule people for their beliefs and I agree with that. But you also said that a belief that doesn't sit well with you -should- be ridiculed.

You're saying that one instance where you say ridiculing beliefs is fine, and then another where you say ridiculing beliefs is -not- fine, is not being Hypocritical?
Can you explain how that's not Hypocrisy?
And if you can't understand what Logic is, you can't possibly understand how I'm Right.
IIN that Athiests and the like go out of their way to disapprove God?

"I think it's disrespectful to ridicule another persons beliefs"
"If you take this view then you deserve to be ridiculed"

So which is it? I might be Confused here but are people's viewpoints only valid until they disagree with yours?

Okay let me get this straight.
You're saying that one instance where you say ridiculing beliefs is fine, and then another where you say ridiculing beliefs is -not- fine, is not being Hypocritical?
Can you explain how that's not Hypocrisy?
And if you can't understand what Logic is, you can't possibly understand how I'm Right.
Also- how would you define "Logic"?
