I dont think he is intimidated by God, just has a different way of thinking. But, you still dont say everyone who believes in God is dumb. By that logic, Millions of Muslims, Cathloics, Christians, Jews, Buddists (Faction that believes in a God, not the true buddists) ETC ETC are dumb. Thats a huge part of the population. So that means almost everyone on Earth is dumb. You dont need to agree with people's religion, or get mad when they try to convert you, just brush them off, or listen. What ever you want.
Although it is narrow minded and he is wrong 100%, it is still his opinion. The problem with that kind of opinion is that sometimes others listen to it. Kind of like Hitlers opinions. It spreads and corrupts. This kind of rash, haphazard thinking leads to much worse things than a clash of opinion......
