Since when did it become okay to make fun of people who pray or believe in God? I've come across some really horrible people who tried shoving their ridiculous opinion down my throat by trying to convince me that believing in God is stupid, or pathetic etc.. They talk as if what they're saying is fact. I know people who make fun of me for believing in god. I also know people who have "lost respect" for me for the same reason. People are free to believe in anything they want, and NO ONE has the right to shove their opinion down someone's throat. Ps. I am NOT talking about ANY specific religion so please do NOT compare religions together or accuse any religion of anything. Please be respectful. Thank You. IP: Logged |

Since when is it OK for people to shove religion down the throats of others?
I feel in my life to date I have had more people mistreat me, even physical hurt me from child to adulthood for not being a believer, for not praying.
I do not make fun of people personally as long as they do not shove it in my face.
And please do not tell people who do not share your beliefs that you will pray to them.
That is very rude and in essence a kind of mockery or even a threat.
I hear Christians b!tching that non Christians laugh at them;
but geeez...these same ones are often shoving their ways at others, even politically.
I have experienced personally too much abuse by religious people.
I would ignore them if they could bother to ignore me. But nooooo.....too many feel they have the right to laugh at the likes of me or worse, abuse, assault me, and or my child when little, but then whine when anyone laughs at them. They pray often wherever they are and make a big point to be obvious everywhere, like at football games and in public every chance they can create;
WITHOUT RESPECT FOR NON BELIEVERS around them;
and you know what?
I IGNORE THEM!
BUT IF I HAPPEN TO BE IN THEIR SIGHT, NOT PRAYING WITH THEM, I GET CONDEMNED.
They do not laugh at NON praying folks;
they go straight to self righteous anger. 
So no,
I am not talking about you but have seen way more religious people do far more than laugh at non religious folks.
I don't know where you are at that ANYONE would choose to laugh at you for praying.
Are you doing it in inappropriate places?
If so how would you feel if a Satanist sat down beside you and started praying?
If you are NOT out in public making a spectacle out of yourself praying anywhere you want to, without respect for people who do not share your belief or desire to pray;
then I do not see why anyone would laugh at you. 
You believe what you want.
Just don't shove it at me or do your thing in front of me and I will not bother you, if you do not bother me.
Keep your public praying to yourself; no putting on a show, we who do not believe do not want to see that display, it is rude.
Be assured no one cares that you pray in private.
Live and let live.
 If I have upset you I apologize ahead of time just in case you are offended.  IP: Logged |
