Re: @Atheists: Do you hate religion? - February 17th 2011, 01:30 AM

I dislike religious people who claim to be open and yet resort to tantrums to win a debate. I dislike people who blindly follow a religion or try to convert me. I do not dislike religion only those who say they're one thing and mean another. Greed and power starts war masked in a guise of religion. Religion is simply interpretation as is our whole world. As a nihilist I dislike people who say they're religious or athiest just cuz . . .

I however have admiration for those who follow their beliefs but do not try converting others. Some of the most intelligent people in history were religious, this pettiness existing from athiests towards religious people it irks me. Is your faith the new iq test, is believing in something childish? It's not, so why say it?

I have often seen people degrade someone for their religious beliefs when clearly that religious person is more clever and open. Maybe a quote might come to mind here. Don't judge a book by it's cover. Sadly I find I am ashamed of people like this as they give athiests a bad reputation.

I believe in schools religion should be a choice. Eradicating it is as bad as enforcing it. Otherwise you can take away someones most important thing in life.

I believe that before a person wishes to speak on subjects like this, they should first acquire the knowledge and acceptance necessary to do so.
