Does anyone else feel disgusted by religious words?
#13
RE: Does anyone else feel disgusted by religious words?
I tend not to get upset at religious phrases, like others have said unless it comes with the implication that it's reflecting a spiritual/god relationship state.

I'm not concerned at all if someone greets me with a Merry Christmas or Happy Hanukkah, or a peaceful greeting during Eid, I don't have any problems joining in any persons peace. I'm even okay with an offer of prayer, or a 'bless you'.

Like others have said it's when terms like fallen, sinner, broken, unsaved are used to describe a possible spiritual state, then i feel the person has no right.
I wish they would learn to build rather than break.
