Conversions

[pineapplebunnybounce]

Personally, I recognize religion to be the evil that it is. An ideology/belief that is based completely on bullshit and fear, with enough "good parts" to stop it from being weeded out because it comes as a package deal. I think it's good that there are people fighting against religion, I wouldn't mind doing so myself. But I don't talk theists in my life out of their religion. The way I respond to an ideology is different from how I treat people. They like to discuss religion with me (I find this kind of odd because these people come from rather religious families but apparently they feel they cannot talk about how they actually feel about some of the teachings), and I don't mind discussing these things, I say what I feel and I try to get them to see their religion through my lens. But if I have any agenda it would be for them to view their own religions objectively and fairly, not just pretend like the bad stuff isn't there, I think that's what I do try to do because it's just so hard to talk to someone who insists that the bad ones aren't "real muslims" or "real christians".
