You’ve clearly assumed it, but whatever, I’m too busy to find examples right now, so let’s just assume you really are giving religious people, myself included, fair consideration as intelligent human beings.
Which is what you should have been assuming this whole time. Funny thing is you’re the only one who seems to notice this intolerance you’re speaking of.
I am not referring to your ignorant generalizations of the Bible, I am referring to the fact that you literally said, “I hate Christianity.”
There are no generalizations. There is good stuff and there is bad stuff. For me the bad outweighs the good because there are other works in which I can learn the same lessons that The Bible teaches. Also “I hate Christianity” =/= “I hate Christians” but then again you already know that.
I don’t have time for a youtube video. I will simply say that if it was racist of me to say I hate black culture, it is equally hateful of you to hate religion. That was why I used my dramatic example. I have little time to post here, so I wanted to get some attention and draw the parallel that if you hate the chosen culture of a people, you in many ways are hating on the people themselves. Sorry youtube video, and sorry Lord Haseo.
It’s just someone saying “bullshit” but I’m glad I didn’t waste the time to find an informative video…not that it would have helped any.
Also that’s a very poor example you’re using as the line between saying “I hate Black Culture” vs saying “I hate Black people” is very minuscule while hating Religion and being okay with Religious people are completely separate.
Boy, you sure know a lot about me for having interacted with me so little and really not understanding my posting history. Nice assumptions.
You have been more or less the same thing but okay buddy.
Not even sure why you bring this up, honestly. I am calling your hatred of Christianity bigotry. Why did you even say this?
“Hate the sin, love the sinner”
That’s why I brought it up
But here I want to reassure you that I didn’t call you a bigot for hating the Bible. I am calling you a bigot for literally stating, “I hate Christianity.”
Christians are a group (which happen to fall under that umbrella of Christianity, which you hate).
You know what the funny thing about this is? This all started because I said I hate the Bible. I didn’t say that I hated Christianity or even Religion in general. Just some food for thought. Furthermore I believe the only person to outright say “I hate Christianity” was Darth Lucas and he clarified that he meant that he hated the Bible and not those who read it. So basically you’re bitching about absolutely nothing.
There’s actually a study that shows that Atheists tend to know more about what’s in Religious texts (primarily the Bible) than actual believers. As someone who used to be a “militant Atheist” a few years back I learned many things about the Bible to fuel my hatred of it and to know what I was talking about when I debated people.
Citation please? Just because I call it like I see it doesn’t mean I’m being overly sensitive. I have far harder discussions in real life with atheists. Why would I be too sensitive to handle featherweight arguments on an Internet board with people I will never meet in real life?
Pick any of the posts you’ve made accusing people of being bigots because they don’t like your religion. Also you bring up a good question but I have no idea why you’re crying so much to people you will never interact with face to face.
No, I think any firmly held belief can do that. Including atheism.
See: Lord Haseo 😉
WRONG ATHEIST
