You would think that this would be a place for people of all races,sex,religions,etc to get along but isn't. So much judging and hating. Blows me away.

What I mean is,...there are more things in life to worry about than judging people. I try not to judge people. But you see it so much everywhere.

I am sorry but I am not judging anyone,...I am just saying that there is so much between different religious beliefs,etc. I don't hate ANYONE. Thank you for your input however though your comment seems a bit out of text.

Why would I think that? It doesn't make sense.

How else do people learn best except by interacting with people think differently, or especially who think in opposing ways? The worst mistakes or misjudgments we can make can open the door to learning the most valuable lessons in life. This learning process should be used constructively to share, study and gain from one another. No, it should not be used to discredit and reinforce more separation or division. I am sorry to hear you have had such a negative experience. May I offer comfort to you that some of the worst attacks I have gotten from people, some of the worst resistance or rejection of my ideas, have led to the most rewarding revelations and change of heart and mind. Sometimes the harder we have to work to reach an understanding, the more valuable the lesson gained. So even if 100 or 1000 interactions get us nowhere, the one that does is worth all the effort invested. Please do not give up but keep searching for better ways to communicate and open up healthy dialogue with mutual respect between parties. The only way to enforce a higher standard is to practice it. Keep it up, and do not stoop to the level of those you despise. You will influence more people by being a better example of what communication and interaction can and should be. Best wishes and hang in there!

Umm, I kinda hate to point this out to you, but...
by ranting about how much judging and hating is going on here, aren't you judging (and possibly hating) the judgers and haters? Hmm?
It's nearly impossible to be completely non-judgemental. It is, however, possible to be tolerant and polite even when you've judged that you think someone else is wrong -- and I think *that* is often lacking here. Not from you, though :) That's my judgement, anyway...

Welcome to real life. The ugly under belly of society. Where anonimity allows one to voice their true feelings about subjects such as religion, sex, and race without consequence or fear of retribution.
Believe half of what you see and none of what you hear.
How do you know your best friend or neighbor isn't just like this?
Closet bigots, racists and sexists are the worst society has to offer. It's why things never truly change and why governments stagnate in the past. Is it any surprise that such opinions surface on such a medium?
As I said, welcome to real life.

Yes it is unbelievable. Everyone is entitled to their opinions, but the way some are expressed here are really offensive.

I think it's because it's anonymous and people don't have to talk to other people face to face so they feel free to let their judmental hateful sides out.
