I actually think this is a very common issue for people. For me, as a Christian to tell you my views is "holier than thou", "judgemental" and the like, but if I don't accept your views I am close minded.

I think this is where the circle begins. How do you convince someone you're not being judgemental without sounding judgemental?

In my experience it is less often the subject matter and more often the presentation that is "holier than thou" or "judgmental"

I know some people that can talk about their beliefs for hours without being offensive and others who can barley open their mouths without making you cringe.

Disparaging remarks about "religious" people are almost always addressing the "vocal minorities".
