I got into an argument with a guy at work because of this. I was talking to another coworker about a kid that was basically left to die by her parents "because religion", and I had mentioned that I have absolutely no respect for someone that lets their kid die for a religion they have no choice in at that age. The conversation moved to us talking about a study that showed that, on average, religious people are far less educated AND being educated is on average far more likely to mean you have a higher education.

Buddy overheard this as me calling HIM stupid, and started yelling at me for having an inappropriate conversation at work. Granted, yes, personal conversation at work and all. But he spent an hour talking about hockey with another coworker earlier that same day.
