First they assume a nefarious reason for the comment/question, then immediately twist the question into something its not and then launch into a tirade of damnation. This takes place in a matter of seconds so its like there is pre-set "attacks" in their minds that are ready to go and all it takes is a trigger word to fire off the counter-attack.
Therefore its impossible to have a meaningful theological conversation with them.

The other day a thought came to me. "Is your faith so weak and fragile that mere words will cause it to collapse and crumble?"
I thought "How true!" (been saying that a lot lately along with "Amazing!")
Really, think about that. Is your faith so fragile it'll pop like a balloon with the tiniest pinprick?
