Yeah...I figured this would happen, just not to this extent. However...if this is the way the thread went...I'll voice my opinion.
Do I believe that other religios are wrong? No, I don't. Do I believe that all those who follow a religion are dumb? No, I don't. I am the kind of guy who sits back and watches the action from afar...as it should be. I, however, have noticed that the only people I've ever been irritated with over something they tell me or something they're trying to "sell" me are Christians.
Why? In my mind, the Christians (not all of em) believe that their reigion is superior, cause they have Jesus Christ as the Messiah. Some like to try and tell someone else what religion they should follow, becuase Jesus loves them. If that's the case he loves everyone, right? So these people tell me that believing in Jesus will save my soul from eternal damnation? Why must I wait to be saved? Do Christians believe that God will help them in life?
To me, the answer is no. I have always tried to look on the spiritual side of things, to see if God could help. A year ago, I gave up. Same reason my aunt did (she did cause her and her family prayed and prayed for the life of a loved one, only to have him die right in front of them)
DO I want to force my beliefs on others? No, I do not. I've always lothed people who told me what I need to believe in. I've been told several times that I'd go to Hell (the Christian Hell, mind you) and had my car keyed at school over my beliefs.
We may be the most civilized Christian nation on earth, so why must we deliver our payrolls in armored cars?
Look...I do not bash what someone believes in, as I tihnk it's not right to tell someone what or who they should follow. Why can't others do the same? Seems to me that there's be less pissed off people if other religions didn't force their beliefs on us, trying to change us.
Don't you think?
