God is not religion. There are religions with multiple Gods and no Gods at all. Irreligion is not the same as atheism. You can be an atheist and be a part of a religion and you can be irreligious and believe in a God. Also it is not just irreligious people or athiests who are trying to convince you to not believe in something. Other religions and even sects also do this all the time to convert people. As an atheist it annoys me when people generalise that atheists are out there to destory the beliefs of every religion out there, frankly I don't care what anyone else believes in. |
Ok fair enough but there has been no evangelism or converting between religious sects on this website AFAIK. However i will not contest your points made. Personally Im just tired of this whole mantra that religion is dumb and holds people back. And comments like "only retarted or ignorant people could believe in God". Obviously im paraphrasing there but these comments keep being parroted and frankly they are insulting to those of us who do believe in a religion/ God.
I respect everyones beliefs and I only ask people to do the same to me. I dont want to be berated for believing what it is that I believe.
Long Live SHIO!
