Why does this more feel like somone stole this from an old racists Facebook post?
Exactly what I was thinking. Seems like the kind of childish meme that old people post.
I respect people and their beliefs as long as they respect other people and theirs.
I don't have time for people who use force to make others believe in their god. I didn't put up with Christianity being forced down my throat in primary school, and that stance won't change, however; if people want to politely talk about it, I won't shut them down.
Religion, as a baseline, disrespects our intelligence.
Respect is a reservoir. It fills slowly, and when the damn breaks, it empties all at once. Once that happens, it doesn't fill up again until the damn is repaired.
A man can believe whatever he wants, but when he spouts off some racist bullshit, suddenly all of the redirect for his beliefs fades away too. Everything he said before is tainted, and I've no reason to respect any of it.
"I can't do that because of my religion"
That's okay.
"You can't do that because of my religion"
Not okay.
I respect people. A silly belief is silly.
Everybody gets a base level respect, they can either earn more, stay the same of lose it.
They can nevere get respect by demanding it
Then they have to respect mine 🤘
exactly, mutual respect is the only way to go
I respect your right to play make believe
Respect the person but their religion is their own game. Boundaries!
I am still very much annoyed when I found out this week that Catholics can eat eggs for lent but not chicken since potential life isn't actual life if it is tasty.
Zero mutual respect zero. If they don't want an abortion they are welcome to not have one, but that live and let live wasn't enough for them.
uh, eggs you eat aren't gonna hatch. I don't see potential for life there. and it doesn't have to do with life anyway. even complex animal life. Fish are on the menu.
You don't have to respect religious beliefs, but every person that treats people with respect, also deserves some respect.
You have to respect my wish to not respect your religion,
Every religious faith has to negotiate between the mores of the society in the era and its scripture.
Jesus is now a brand, as we can see in thr juxtaposition of the He Gets Us Jesus and the mores actively practiced by those who promote and finance the HGU campaign.
I respect the identities of parishioners. I respect that they have beliefs. I respect when their principles are consistently held.
But once they are a danger to themselves or others, I cannot any longer afford that respect.
I have no issue with faith until it wants to direct the government. Then I get cranky.
Human sacrifice was also a widely held religious belief...
I think the rules don't really apply for outright murder more like don't yell at someone for having a weird head covering.
Now do it with a christian instead.
Why? We don't have to be EEO about religious mockery. No obligation at all that every religions get yelled at exactly the same amount.
Besides which you have to at least pretend to respect Christianity since it rules the world. Even if you hate it it is is still one of the biggest facts of living on earth.

In the US, I can't discriminate against a person because of their religion. It says nothing about respect. Especially if you're using it as an excuse for shitty behavior.
