4. They think the same about atheists
Its not a new idea, its just they have newer targets for their hate.
Lots of Christians think non-Christians are tools of the devil.
We have a regular here who calls his detractors deceiver which is code-speak for the devil.
The idea is if you arent with them, you must be against them and working for the other side. Many of them are indoctrinated with these warped ideas from childhood.

From this thread:
https://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=view_post&forum=1218&pid=309908
The claim by MN, an obvious one, is that this unspecified "regular" calls his detractors deceiver.
Your first link leads to this response to MN, by me,
The deceiver might have put that thought into your mind.
It is obvious from a reading that the deceiver does not refer to MN, but to an unnamed entity which might be deceiving MN.
So MN's claim is incorrect, and unsupported.
So that should end the matter.

If you replace "apologia" with the synonym "defense" the meaning doesn't change, Gullible
