1. You cause unrest and violence in the world by willing to die for your beliefs.
2.You have a closed mind and do not appreciate ideas.
3.You fight for trying to convince as many people to think like you as possible.
4.You are coward for being so easily reached by 'fear' tactics...something that religion always uses.
5.You spread your disease to your children...people who have not yet developed independent thought and rational thinking.
6.You ignore the most obvious things and can't think 3 dimensionally.
7.You TRULY believe what you preach.
8.You don't ever have private mental sessions where you thoroughly examine your beliefs in a way not tainted by others.
Is this you?

No it's not me. Who are you any way to judge religious peopel? I'm Christian but I do not recognize myself in the description you gave above, except for n°7. But it doesn't make me coward or violent or else....If I'm willing to die for Jesus I will not use violence to convert people. Why do you believe we don't think? If religious people we're that stupid they would all have jobs where thinking is not necessary....So many of us were great thinkers, can't you just admit this fact? How many languages do you speak? Can you speak French the way I speak English? Give me a proof that you are more intelligent than me....You need proofs but you don't give any. Can you write a real argumentation? Or is it someone else's ideas you borrowed?These statements are just unvalid without a serious argumentation. Can you base this on a serious theory? Can you use sociology to explain religion? If you don't send me an answer I'll think that you admitted you're wrong. Good luck, I'm waiting for a serious essay on the subject.

I am guilty of 3 and 7. I try to convince people that reality is real. I truely belive reality is real.
Am I a bad person for this? As for non-religious families forcing their opinion on their children, that is a lie most non-theist let their children search for their own path in life. Be it theist or non-theist.

Your mere statements are tainting other's thoughts as they read them, in reality. If a child is raised in a non-believing family he is being forced into believing that way himself. Non-religion is being forced down his throat. By going to school and hearing different opinions being taught, or coming here to Yahoo Answers, or reading the paper or watching the news, you name it, every place you go you hear someone's opinion, which indefinetly taints your way of thinking.
And who's to say that a praciticing religionist hasn't THOUGHT THROUGH what they are doing? Perhaps you haven't? EVer thought of that (without thinking your way OUT of believing)?
