Forums - General Discussion - Are you offended if someone insults/supports a religion/political group?

Not if what they are saying is intelligent and isn't being said just to cause trouble.



We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers…Also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls.  The only thing that really worried me was the ether.  There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge. –Raoul Duke

It is hard to shed anything but crocodile tears over White House speechwriter Patrick Buchanan's tragic analysis of the Nixon debacle. "It's like Sisyphus," he said. "We rolled the rock all the way up the mountain...and it rolled right back down on us...."  Neither Sisyphus nor the commander of the Light Brigade nor Pat Buchanan had the time or any real inclination to question what they were doing...a martyr, to the bitter end, to a "flawed" cause and a narrow, atavistic concept of conservative politics that has done more damage to itself and the country in less than six years than its liberal enemies could have done in two or three decades. -Hunter S. Thompson

I hate it when people say "A-rab" instead of Arab. It is just so racist, like they are all bad people or something and it's just not true.



I think the context is more important than yes or no.

But yes, I often offend religious people, but it's hard not too. I only offend some social groups like chavs, emos, hippies, BNP etc... But I'm cool with the other 95% of groups.



I'll debate against all religions, since I think they're all pretty much worthless. Conversly if someone thinks I'm a nob and wants to have an intelligent debate about why my views are stupid then thats fine by me.

BTW Religion does not equal race.

Doubt is not a pleasant condition, but certainty is absurd.

5 THINGS I'd like to see before i knock out:

a. a AAA 3D sonic title

b. a nintendo developed game that has a "M rating"

c. redesgined PS controller

d. SEGA back in the console business

e. M$ out of the OS business

I don't really get offended by what other people think or believe until they try and force their opinion on me and call it "fact". Everyone has the right to think or feel the way they want. It's when they start trying to shove it in my face that I get annoyed.

Instead of seeking to convince others, we can be open to changing our own minds, and seek out information that contradicts our own steadfast point of view. Maybe it’ll turn out that those who disagree with you actually have a solid grasp of the facts. There’s a slight possibility that, after all, you’re the one who’s wrong.

I can see where this thread is headed....
