Wow. I have consistently seen the worst from FV proponents. Their reaction to criticism is not what I would attribute to learned theologians responding to critics of their view, but more akin to something else of a less mature manner.

I would think it would be best not engage a proponent of FV directly, and let them flap in the wind while you address the meat of the issue. There's no point in arguing with these people as their ears appear to be closed; it's much better to just argue against their view and show the falsity inherant therein. They appear to want to sidetrack discussion by being disrepectful and hateful, in order to draw attention away from criticizing their skewed theology. From there, they claim you're being uncharitable and mean and not addressing the issues.

I've had kinder treatment from non-believers, honestly.
