I came her because i think atheism is sexy.... for some reason. I am weird at best.

I am against religious fundamentalism, though i am sort of a sky believer when things gets tough though i dont like practice it or anything. Like i am essentially ok with people believing in stuff, but its when it goes to the extremes that it becomes dangerous considering throughout history this has been a problem in terms of human rights, science etc. Like every culture where religious fundamentalism has gotten its grasp, then science or human rights have been problems in most of the ways in terms of a huge superstitious view that your god watches you and that your culture should slaughter that culture.

Though to be fair i am pro "good vs bad culture" so i am ok with racism if it doesnt go away from Golden rule ( i tend to watch atheism is unstoppable on youtube sometimes") when i say racism is good. I dont mean the "i hate blacks or yellow people" type, that goes against golden rule and is just discriminatory, nobody likes to be punched for example so it would just be terrible unethical. I mean if its bigoted to lets say your own culture or their culture practices to remove clits of girls. Then if that is racism then its good. Since its objective good vs bad culture, whether you are religious or not that is productive talk to not mess up future generations on bad values. Aswell as bigotry there is logical and inlogical bigtory, example hating homosexuals is ilogical bigotry because having laws to make it illegal (unless it is harasment) then no, its privacy etc. But if its like a adult showing kids pornographic images that is abuse. So being bigoted towards views that are immorale is ok, even if you infringe your views as better. But its ok since its good vs bad morals.


Well yeah i told my lifestory. Nice to meet : D

Most of the time i am a RPG junkie honestly. I play Final Fantasy alot.

Hi...

lol, m'boy can reconcile racism and the Golden Rule.

We aren't allowed to be rude in intro threads, so...hullo.

Hello.

Welcome.

welcome to our little band of heathens

I don't follow how condemning others and other cultures for the practition of genital mutilation is supposed to be racism.

Hi.

You have a novel definition for racism. I play RuneScape.

Well not in terms of belittling them for being of another skintone or wanting to encourage culture supremacy. But often it is gonna be implemented as that you have a bigoted view that other cultures are inferior, which isnt true since criticism should be a thing with both western and any other culture if they are objectively bad.

The problem is often the overly sensitive police will think you have some racist agenda or something. So thats why if thats the case then you seriously have to be racist if thats the way to actually take up issues to help future generations. And i dont mean if it breaks golden rule, just in terms of questioning bad parts of every culture in order to pass on the good parts.

For example harmless ones like traditions that is harmless would be pretty condescending to like for example say its bad or it should be banned, kind of like banning ice hockey marathons or wicca rituals. But if it does contain some serious abusive ones that are objectively bad like human sacrifice to mention some stuff.. then yeah. I am all for not being ok with it. Like i come from norway, but lets say if some nutjob here decided that he needed to revive sacrifice to the gods and that the wheat has withered or something, and that they had made the gods mad so it requires a human sacrifice called bloting. if that would happen i would just be like "No!. Nope" For example in african countries i think they hunt superstitious witches most likely, though i dont know much about african countries other than civil wars and etc. But if any sane person lived there, to promote good parts over bad would be lethal and better for everyone living there.

According to Oxford dictionary: Racism, noun
Prejudice, discrimination, or antagonism directed against someone of a different race based on the belief that one's own race is superior.

So, if I have ideas that aren't racist, but because others think that me having them means I am racist for having them or that they must mean I also have racist views, that would make me racist?
Wouldn't it just make those other people wrong?

Yes but in case of politics this seems it seems always that way. Like to take on example, religious fundamentalism i am against, not against religion per se though. But its also a case that people who are against jihadism can also be pretty bigoted like "sandnigger" to mention a few which is racist to say, which is different to be against people who think killing people in the name of something is immorale and has bad circle of hatred that one shouldn't pass on. Not to mention nationalists who think that its not ideas that matters but your race which i dont share or believe in, i believe purely in passing on better ideas, not what your ethnicity is. But you are often put into that category if you were to raise an eyebrow on those bad ideas. And that is usually the problem.
