I do understand your position. However, for civil discourse to happen, each party must show respect for the other's viewpoint without agreeing to it. As a Christian with many non-Christian friends I've had to learn to do this reasonably well. I was merely encouraged that two such diametrically opposed viewpoints as stated in the post above had, nonetheless, managed to hold civil discourse. Imagine what the world would be like if we could all do that? Agree to disagree without disrespecting one another.
