What's your biggest beef with religion?
#57
RE: What's your biggest beef with religion?
A lot of people who believe in their religion tend to get violent or ostracize people who don't believe the way they do. Even though they don't have concrete evidence that their god is real, or his ideas are what's best for the whole of Humanity. For instance, there's a verse in the bible where Jesus tells his followers to pray privately, and don't proselytize like the pharisees. If people actually followed that, and kept their religion low key while letting other people get on with their lives, we wouldn't have nearly as many problems with religion. We'd all get along much better, respecting different beliefs. You want to follow Jesus? Fine.  Don't try to force other people to follow him.

You can have all the crazy beliefs and rituals you want. As long as you aren't hurting other people, we have no problem. Just also respect other people's beliefs, as long as they aren't hurting other people.
