Boarding, cars, skiing, hobbies, are WAY different than Religion. Religion is not a hobby it is a lifestyle. A lifestyle that teaches you what they think is right and wrong and what is true and false. NOW, if a skateboarder came up to me and said hey man, join my group of skateboarders, we are morally superior and our lifestyle is the best, all you have to do is follow these commandments and the skateboard god will give you ever lasting life, I would then have a serious problem with said individual or at least their belief.
This forum is mostly based on opinions. We have a right to those opinions and due to the fact that religion is highly subjective due to the fact there is no evidence of God’s existance, there will be no right answer. Just debate after debate. At the end of the day nothing is accomplished but there is nothing wrong discussing it. Also, it is a forum, WITH a thread title, if someone does not like the content, guess what? They can go read another thread.
IMO if someone is getting butthurt by someone else’s post then they HAVE the problem not the poster. Learn that everyone has opinions and some of those opinions will not line up with yours. So don’t take it personally. Just recognize that opinions are what they are.
When people start labeling me as a religious nut and ATTACKING my beliefs, that’s when it crosses the line and becomes wrong. I agree, we are entitled to our beliefs. That’s why I don’t tell you to go to church, etc. It’s your choice. But when people start, again, ATTACKING…that’s a whole nother story and I feel bad for the person who finds the need to do that.
