Well, into certain subjects I could be kind of like a bible pusher so that's indeed a similarity, the fact that we both want to convince other people to have the same opinion as us, the difference is the motivation and if the opinion is well formed. A Bible pusher doesn't use very good arguments according to science and logic, as where I will try to do that, without always having the knowledge, I will admit.
That's largely because science can't explain religion and since people think that logic is defined purely by how people understand science, people think that religion is illogical. Opinions are not always scientifically sound, that's why it's an opinion and not "fact", yet you apparently hold "Bible Pushers" to prove their
opinions with science and logic, which is based entirely in the "fact" realm. In fact, science can't prove that God
doesn't exist either, and for that reason, that view is also an opinion, but no-one expects people with that view to prove it using science because asking the impossible of science would be ludicrous (which is funny considering that almost everyone does that to Christians regarding their belief system). Anyway, not the point but an important observation nonetheless.
An opinion can be well formed, regardless of viewpoint or proof of opinion.
Motivation is rather irrelevant since everyone is motivated ultimately to help themselves (you put this as deaf and blind being the same because they're both a lack of a sense, so motivation is all the same because everyone's motivation is based on helping themselves in some way).
