You have no right...
You have no right to call someone 'stupid' for believing in the Bible.
You wouldn't want someone calling you stupid for not believing, so what makes you think you have that right to say that?
Someone being religious doesn't make them stupid. They have just as much right to believe as you do not to believe. Stop being so hypocritical. I'm oh-so-sick of hearing my religion bashed by people that obviously have no idea what they're talking about.
If you're not religious- fine, but don't get mad and insult those that are. You're not going to change anyone's mind; you're just making yourself look like a jerk.

My friend Urvashi's Christian and she cops so much crap for being religious..
And since I'm middle-eastern I used to get plenty of racists asking why I don't wear a hiijab, asking me whether I eat pork, do I hate America and if my fathers a terrorist. All this because I come from Muslim desent. They didnt believe me when I told them I wasnt even religious. I mean, even If I WAS muslim did it matter? Did that degrade me as a person?And did that necesserily mean I was a terrorist, so on and so forth?

I don't think people who believe in it are stupid, because although it makes no rational sense to me and I personally don't believe in it, religion does a lot of good for some people. There is nothing stupid about having faith in something.
If people know their opinion is going to offend someone or rile them up, they should keep it to themselves. Bashing someones beliefs is just looking for an arguement, which is immature.

I agree. It's not stupid to believe in something, it's a personal choice, and even if you might not agree with that choice, you've got to respect it.

Yeah, that's true, but you don't have to flat out call someone stupid for what they believe...

No matter what you believe - or do not believe - you will always end up offending someone.

Good point.
But you also have to make sure that you yourself are not (no matter how unintentional) putting forth your beliefs in a way that other people see as offensive, or like you are bashing them.
But you do make sense.
