Man I'm sorry but I have to TOTALLY disagree with you here. Christians get persecuted so much today because they openly persecute anyone who does not share a similiar belief as them(im not talking christians as a whole, just the militant ones) And when anyone throws words back at christianity everyone is up in arms. I'm so totally sick of having people knock on my door preaching the lords word. Yep you have your beliefs that is fine, I have mine, do not mock or condemn me because we share different opinions.
I live by one rule, Do unto others as I would have them do unto me. I do not live by this rule because I am concerned of damnation by some all knowing diety. I do so because it my personal belief that everyone deserves the same amount of respect unless their actions show otherwise. Basically I do not verbally debase any religious person, unless they try to debase me, and in my life I have gotten more of that from christians than any other religions combined.
Don't take this as an attack, its just that whole christianity persecution comment really stirred me up. Christians run the united states of america, so to say they are heavily persecuted is just off putting.
I belive in what I see unless something proves otherwise I will continue to do so, and nothing in any religious script I have ever read has ever convinced me of anything, other than it was written by man not god himself. My family is very religious, I was baptised in a catholic church, but somehow I cannot swallow what they fed me. What happens after death is anybodies guess. Im not an athiest but the way I figure it no human on earth can tell me gods will, thus I will live my life the best way I can an hope that when I die, god sees that I at least tried to live by my own morals and principals and that I was a good man.
Rant over!
