If you air your ideas about your beliefs in the real world, expect people to talk back. The fact there is even a discussion about the subject of virtual girlfriend's online (if they do harm anyone it could be argued it is only be the person indulging in it, which can't often be said of religious faith) is surely testament to that, no?
This. I might be completely mistaken, but I also get the feeling she's referring to me (based on some of the wording).
Just in case, I have no problem with people (including CL) believing in anything that makes them happy. That's never been my issue with her specifically.
Not referring to anyone in particular, as I honestly can't remember who it was that said what in this thread. Just something I've noticed throughout the forum in general and is not specific to this thread. Though as I said, does not apply to everyone, but it is something I have seen.
I'm glad you don't have a problem with people being religious.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
