I mean, yeah, there are exceptions; I think I could assume a thing or two about, say, an ISIS fighter's personality. But people are fucking complex, and it is their life experience that shapes them, not belief in God or opinion on abortion. So to assume things based on whether somebody is "atheist" or "Christian" or "liberal" or "conservative" ticks me off. And so many people do it to the label they see as opposite their own. It promotes divisiveness. And then, the FUNNIEST (or saddest) thing is that, when, say, a liberal generalizes conservatives, the conservative does it to the liberal with the excuse that "they did it to me first!" Grow up you big goddamn baby.
So that's why I want Neo to clarify his post. Because I have no clue what the fuck your typical atheist or your typical Christians are supposed to "act like," and I'd love to be enlightened.
Oh, my post wasn't directed towards you. It was in response to the oroginal thread post.
I know, I was agreeing with you!
