Any my Question is this:
Should we respect religions as a whole?
And what I mean is stop being so polite when it comes to the religion its self (I don't mean being a complete jerk to any one person as that's just cruel) and to show everybody just how stupid and evil and irrelevant it is to the whole world.
We???
I never saw Atheism as a kind of collective which had some kind of guiding principles for people to follow and really dont think it is or ever was.
I have my own personal mindest and principles.
I dont think of it to be alright to discriminate religious people because of their belief.
I rejected religion on a personal level and I think atheism is also a personal conclusion to reach.
And the only circumstances under which I believe it to be alright to publicly protest or even call for the abolishment and maybe even criminalisation of a faith, is when that faith intends to inflict harm onto sociaty or individuals.
I also think it is nececery to keep religious skripture out of politics.
Which is my personal opinion and not some general guidline I follow.
