Thinking religion is some sort of sacred cow that is the one thing you can't criticise about another person makes you a bigger douche. Way to follow the crowd, champion.LottoX said:Oh man, you're such a douche. Paying people out about their religions.
Why? They do the same thing!LottoX said:You can't really create blanket statements about the personality of people in certain religions, though.
Uhhh...can't you? These are people who actively choose to base their lifestyle on a certain ideology with set tenets. I feel a hell of a lot more comfortable generalising about people who all voluntarily profess the same basis for their life, than I do about people who just happen to have a certain colour of skin, for example.LottoX said:You can't really create blanket statements about the personality of people in certain religions, though.

What are beliefs for if not to be criticised?Ged Janet said:I am a Christian, and i go to church every week.... And I reckon people should be allowed to have their own beliefs and you shouldn't criticise them for what they believe in, and it's not fair to generalise them.
Mate i reckon you should go for it- she's just an ordinary girl. As you said, she may have strong principles and values, but she's just an ordinary girl under that.
never let the fact that someone goes to church every week fool you into believing they are a christian or that they take God seriously...Originally Posted By Nichhhole
because you find a large majority of 'religious girls' ie those who go to church every week etc, still sleep around.
Hillsong is a nice example...alot of teens are there primarily to socialize.]

Wow. Just wow.iamsickofyear12 said:What are beliefs for if not to be criticised?
Don't start with the strong principles and values bullshit. Whether it is intentional or not any time a religious person says something like that they are attacking the principles and values of everyone else, like they are somehow inferior just because they aren't based on religious beliefs. I would consider my principles and values stronger than most religious people and I am the most anti-religious person ever.
don't judge a whole religion by the actions of a few. big mistake.f3nr15 said:
