I get it, the possibility of firmly rejecting the contents of a persons beliefs as both false and bad - but strongly denouncing any attempt to prevent them from holding such beliefs.
I see it's value, I believe in it's necessity as a right, I'm concerned that it's naive and more aspirational goal than statement of fact with respects to facts about human beliefs and compulsion to and by genuinely held belief - but being such a happy and non miserable guy...hopeful, lol - I agree with all of that.
I still can't help but say that when we're dealing with things that are both false, and bad...we're dealing with things that people shouldn't do, or shouldn't believe. That's why I, personally, can't say I'm all in favor of everyone having their own meaning making myths. I see the contents, and I see that people shouldn't believe these false things.
