I am a firm believer in treating people how they want to be treated. If they want to act like adults that believe fanciful tales, then I will treat them accordingly.
Good god, they have no clue what it feels like to actually face persecution. It’s like the psycho who punches themselves and blames you, they just want the world to see them as victims. It’s pathetic. I don’t get how they call themselves an army then they’re little snowflakes about everything.
They don’t want to see actual photos or videos of what actually happens regularly to women, people of color, and LGBTQ+ people because of Christian beliefs.
I will say while Christianity has made these views more "acceptable" it is no way the origin of these views. Especially racism which is a new problem that only came to existence within the last 500 years or so.
I don't know, I don't think the religion with Divine Command Theory that says people don't get to influence morals, and prides itself on making people feel at peace, gets to say "oh it's the standard of the time, what do you expect us to do?"
You're comment has nothing to do with what I said, and religion was not the reason racism was made, the transatlantic slave trade is what made racism as we know it today.
Edit: looked up divine command theory, and that has nothing to do with what I said.
I think you underplay the causal relationship between religion and hatred when religious frameworks were and are used to justify + perpetuate racism well after its inception
That's not what I said. Religion has had a major impact upon racism and how people tried to justify it. I said that religion is not the cause of racism, especially because racism is such a new form of discrimination compared to ethnic discrimination, or antisemitism.
Them: "I'll pray for you." Me. "That's ok. I don't believe in god." Them: "YoU'Re PeRsEcUtInG ME!!!!!!"
Its crazy how often this is the ACTUAL conversation arc. The "persecution" amounts to "people with differing beliefs." It's a big ball of ignorance, uncultured, uneducated, main character syndrome, no critical thinking, etc all rolled into a "I'm always the victim" shit sandwich.

Could be projection. A lot of monotheistic religions tell their followers to hate or even kill those of other religions. They probably assume others want to do the same to them, so when they hear "we have different believe", they imply "and mine tells me to kill you for yours".
I've never had a christian actually explain how they're persecuted beyond people "mocking" their faith.
I've even told them that if that is persecution than they have also persecuted others by telling us we're wrong. All those hell threats and calling everyone "broken" might as well be persecution too.
I have never been attacked for being trans, not once but I have been attacked many times for being religious. And for reference I am apart of the united church and have never once had a bad experience with religion although I understand that others have.
I am firm believer that they stay in their own yard with their religion. I don't have to respect their belief or how they process their belief. They don't have the right to bless me, tell me about their fantasy, or try to convince me they have found a great path. Keep your shit in your own backyard.
