diegocaleiro didn't just say they were just irrational:
I strongly suspect that this isn't a case of "My family members don't believe as I do, therefore fuck those guys." but rather "These family members know that I am nonreligious and aggressively proselytize because of it." This probably isn't even about rationality or LessWrong, rather atheism.
Note also that it is diegocaleiro who initiated the conversation, and note the level of enthusiasm about the idea received from other posters (Only ChristianKI and Benito's responses seem wholly in favor, VilliamBur and drethelin's responses are against, shminux and BenLandauTaylor's responses are neutral).
Outside view: These family members know that [diegocaleiro joined a group with weird non-mainstream religious beliefs] and [are trying to deconvert him].
