FWIW-the other "side" says exactly the same thing about the unbelievers. And they don't need provocation to say it. So that argument won't hold water.

And for you edification- I was the one sho used "true believer" because that is one of my favorite books. I do not believe E used the term- but she might have used it after I did.

I am unaware of a single instance where E did either of those things:
1) characterize her interlocutors here as "true believers"
2) State that they as a class are impervious to facts.

If I am wrong, I will graciously admit it, but the burden of linking confirming evidence falls upon you. Otherwise I will remain secure in my impression of E's superior debating behavior. :-)
