If you're going to give advice, I think it might be better if you could be more specific. Please point out anything that I've done that's uncivil in any way.
I, myself, am a little overweight. I've worked on it, but I know it's not healthy. It is not insulting to overweight people to say that being overweight, at least statistically, can be unhealthy. Believing in things for which there is no reasonable evidence, can be just as unhealthy. There is nothing uncivil about saying that. I used to smoke. Smoking is irrational. I am uncomfortable in some social situations. That is irrational. There is nothing insulting to me about that. It's part of learning. As you learn about the world and the ways in which people deceive themselves, you'll see that belief in certain ideas is not healthy.
I am not insulting people, I am telling them that they are worthy of more. They can lose those beliefs which tell them they are not worthy, that they have to create fantasy worlds to live in in order to gain self-worth.
