how is it that some people think we are being racist?

Question

when we disagree with,islamists,homosexuals and catholics.did they never hear of freedom of speech.i grew up living among catholics although they did bully me cos i was in the minority,a protestant

Answer 1

You're not being racist because Catholic is not a race, nor is Islam, nor is homosexual. Maybe you're a being a bigot. More likely people are just picking on you because you're stupid. I'm around all those people and I'm not one of them and I've never been bothered or picked on by any of them soooo.....What's wrong with you?

Answer 2

You have to realize that critical thinking is missing in the world. No longer is debate concerned with premise and logic. People no longer have those skills. If they disagree with a point of view, they simply "shoot" you in the nastiest way possible. It is beyond their capability to reason and debate, so they attack you. A perversion is when we take something meant for a particular use and divert it to a wrong purpose. For example, the purpose of glue is to glue things. Yet people use glue in a way that glue was never made for. They sniff and get high on it. It is a perversion. Glue is being diverted to a wrong purpose. Sex is the same way. A man has a penis and a woman has a vagina. They naturally fit -- Yin and Yang in harmony. But put two yins together or two yangs together and instead of harmony you get a discordant clanging "noise". Its like forcing the wrong piece into a puzzle. You can try to make it go there, but it doesn't go there. It was never meant to go there. When you look at the body of a man and the body of a woman, it is very apparent what nature intends. Homosexuality is not natural. It is a perversion. That is pretty obvious.
Now the rebuttal to this line of reasoning will not be premise and logic and reason; it will be name calling. Homophobe or the like. Like I said, critical thinking is missing in the world. Or maybe I am giving it too high a name. Instead of critical thinking maybe I should just call it what it really is: Common sense.

Answer 3

Cause when you try to outcast a group of people based upon their race, religion or sexual orientation you make your self a RACIST!!!!! If you don't want labeled as a racist don't behave like one.
You can disagree with people as an individual. You can say " I disagree with homosexuals" and state your reason as long as it don't insult anyone of course. That is not being a racist. However to say things like its wrong and all homosexuals should be killed, or it should be illegal to be gay or aids is a homosexuals STD, and such things like that will get you labeled as a racist.
Anytime you judge a whole group of people you are generalizing which is also wrong. Anytime you judge others based upon their race, religion, or sexual orientation you are a racist. If you don't want to be labeled as racist stop judging people based on those things. You also sound like a bigot.
I really don't see why you spend so much time worrying about what others do or who they are based upon their race, religion, or sexual orientation. It's their life not yours!

For those who claim religion and sexual orientation have nothing to do with a racist person. I suggest you look up the word "racist".

Answer 4

for the most part racism deals with race and somehow people have begun to label certain religions to certain races. I think it is just because people are not open to opinions anmore, they think they are right and dont care what you think, I tend to get the same attitude at times unfortunatly, being a Christian makes it worse because so many "christians" judge others very harshly and incorrectly, I think we need to start teaching kids and people in general to make descisions for themselves , yet be open to the views of another.

Answer 5

Disagreeing with someone or their philosophies isn't being racist.

Being bullied or treated different becuase of your race/religion etc is racism.

Answer 6

Being enraged about segregationism is, more often than not, a manifestation of the fear that the segregated groups will retaliate violently..

Just another measure of control..
