I see over and over name calling and belittling on these questions posed in the Religious section. If it is not your religion, the one you were raised with and feel is your belief system why degrade or slander or belittle it?
In psychology it is said that we often attack and try to belittle what we do not understand, this is often a defense mechanism caused by fear, and often fears is only the misguided reaction to something we do not understand.
Why be so ugly towards others that ask questions dealing with different religions here? I can not personally believe that any God would be proud of some of the abusive, childish post shared here in response to some pretty sincere questions.
It is fine to defend your religious beliefs, but do so in a respectful manner, right?
I don’t think anyone here is trying to FORCE another person to believe as he or she does, I believe that many are honestly seeking answers to questions, trying to better understand something they do not understand.
So, again I ask, why do you believe there is so much disrespect here?
If I came to your church, place of worship, mission, circle, gathering… and I honestly wanted to find out more of your religion or wanted to share some of mine… would you be disrespectful or would you be loving and try to share with me?
I personally think it is fine to disagree, but not to be disrespectful and hateful in the process.
