and think about it. EVERYBODY gets bashed for their beliefs, but the way you look at it, its like atheists vs all religion when its really not, its atheism vs christianity, vs buddhism vs islam vs judaeism etc.

and when you talk crap on a religion, you are telling that person that the thing that they value the most is utter crap and they are stupid for believing it. when a religious person tells you you are wrong, its because they think that convincing you will save your soul

look at it this way-
if i turn out to be right, then i did you a favor by letting you know the truth, if im wrong absolutely nothing happens differently to you.
if youre right, absolutely nothing happens differently to you or me, if youre wrong you just look like an asshole

EDIT: i dont mean you should be thanking me or whatever i just mean take into account where people are coming from when they talk about god, its not to ruin your day if you know what i mean. its like your parents or whatever telling you you shouldnt eat junk food as a kid; you disagree, you both think youre right, and you both think youre doing it for your own good

i think the thing i understand the least is the total animosity towards people who believe a certain thing. if the person is a jackass, they are a jackass whether they believe in god or not. if a person is cool, they are cool whether they believe in god or not. so why generalize about how terrible religious people are. grow up.
