Yeah being aggressive and hostile with your beliefs is a sure-fire way to get people to turn against you and your ideology.
You don't win hearts and minds by lecturing people.

Are you talking about me lecturing others?

Well, the whole point is to uncover the truth through things like bringing forth evidence and even debate. If they didn't wish to be refuted then they shouldn't have disagreed with the person starting the thread. Come on now. 

Or are you talking about the others? Well, the beliefs that they support haven't changed yet, and too many of the world's religious groups still hold rational that society should in some way discriminate. I have a problem with this. 

"People like you are responsible for the Holocaust" is a bit uncalled for.

You're allowed to have your convictions, but this kind of hyperbole, (not to mention Godwin's Law) just kills any chance of reasonable debate.
