Religion is a belief system, it is something that people consciously (or unconsciously as it often happens) choose. Race, biological sex, sexual orientation are inborn traits. People don't choose them. It's not fair that a person should be demeaned because of them.
There's nothing wrong with believing in any religion, provided you don't try to negatively affect others. Christians try to negatively affect others. They try to pass laws based on their religion. They persecute homosexuals, on the basis that their religion says that sexual orientation is a choice (totally unfounded and debunket claim), and demean gays using words like "perverts", "unnatural", "mentally ill" etc. I know a certain Christian on this very site who's been harassing me these past days with some vile messages that I find nothing short of disgusting (comparing gays to babies born with 8 legs, and that's not even the worst of it). And therer's also how they treat women.
Beliefs like these should be challenged and they should be bashed. Individuals like these deserve no respect.
Hey, just in this very topic I saw some Christians bashing Islam, yet they have the nerve to moan about peopler criticising their beleifs. That's another thing against them.
If have nothing against Christians who respect others regardless of their religious beliefs (or lack of), sexual orientation etc., and they too should stand up against the biggots, least they'll be all lumped together.
Oh, and if you took that quote ("I've noticed Christians are hypocrites") from me, you've taken it out of context. I specifically said in what aspect I found them to be hypocrites.
