why not religionism ?

I must have missed where you explained about the different forms of discrimination. My apologies.

Yes, discrimination can be a neutral and even a useful act, but that is manifestly not the tone taken by the OP. Winter was clearly referring to religious discrimination in its most negative sense, and I’ve chose to follow his lead.

No one is claiming that negative discrimination is a exclusively tool of the church - people discriminate for all sorts of reasons. But - not to belabour the point - this particular thread happens to be about religious discrimination. And I stand by my earlier point that the majority of people doing it are religionists. I’ve been discriminated against by these types and I’m not even religious.

that's all i was looking to point out while the church has used discrimination to cut people off, even burn them at that stake ect.. the term is not synomous with religious based hatred. there is a contrast most people over look which is why religionism is not a detorgorty term like racism. in that hate unlike with racisms is not intrinsically apart of religious discrimination. rather religious discrimination is paired with hate.

*shrug* Like Angrboda implies, a difference which makes no difference IS no difference. Who are the people most likely to practice religious discrimination?
