But yet they cannot even spell grade school English words? Why do some people have a problem with others beliefs, and are so quick to come on and insult? (In a religion site if I may add.) What the fight rooms filled? MTV off the air today? Mall closed? Satanic worship hall shut down? So what we have a problem with religion, and God and Jesus, and the Jehovahs Witness' and Allah, and Wiccan, and Pagan, and Kirshna(sorry if I left out any) so we come to THERE site and INSULT them. Now that is priceless. Leave everyone to there own religion, just ask your questions, and let peace be with everyone. No matter who there God is, most here have genuine questions.

It is true that Jehovah's Witnesses are not loved by everyone.
http://jw-media.org/newsroom/human_rights.htm
Some people hate Jehovah's Witnesses out of ignorance, or over some misunderstanding. A few may have had a bad personal experience with an individual who claimed to be a Jehovah's Witness, and prejudicially extended their animus to this entire Christian religion.
However, it seems that the majority of anti-Witness hatred is motivated by religious intolerance and bigotry. A few may even be motivated against their Christian worship by the unseen 'god of this system of things', Satan the Devil.
(2 Corinthians 4:4) the god of this system of things has blinded the minds of the unbelievers
Interestingly, such "hatred" should be expected by true Christians in this time of the end, and it actually helps identify Jehovah's Witnesses as Christ's true disciples:
(John 15:19) If you were part of the world, the world would be fond of what is its own. Now because you are no part of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, on this account the world hates you.
(Luke 6:22) Happy are you whenever men hate you, and whenever they exclude you and reproach you and cast out your name as wicked for the sake of the Son of man.
(1 Peter 4:4) Because you do not continue running with them in this course to the same low sink of debauchery, they are puzzled and go on speaking abusively of you.
(2 Timothy 4:3-5) For there will be a period of time when they will not put up with the healthful teaching, but, in accord with their own desires, they will accumulate teachers for themselves to have their ears tickled; and they will turn their ears away from the truth, whereas they will be turned aside to false stories. You, though, keep your senses in all things, suffer evil, do the work of an evangelizer, fully accomplish your ministry.
It seems signficant that the relatively small religion of Jehovah's Witnesses are the ones best known for their worldwide preaching work. Yet Jesus commanded that ALL who would call themselves "Christian" perform this public work:
(Matthew 28:19,20) Go therefore and make disciples of people of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the holy spirit, teaching them to observe all the things I have commanded you. And, look! I am with you all the days until the conclusion of the system of things.

I have ask this one myself. I am not a Christain but once was and the fact of the matter is as long as Christians try to spread the gospel they will be attacked by the non-faithful. Your Bible tells you this and prepares you for your trials. If your going to spread the word, you better be able to defend it.
So many young Christians immediately go out and try to convert but they are not ready. Spreading the word and faith is a delicate matter and you should know your stuff. For every insult or attack or misguiding, the Bible prepares us with an answer, you just have to know those answers and without them you could be made to look like a fool.

People always have to put down everyone else mainly because they think their way is the right way. This is the only explanation for it. All that people need is to be more open-minded towards people that may be a little bit different from them. If we all were a little bit open-minded, we would not have a difficult time understanding where they are coming from.

I have actually heard Christians calling non-believers Idiots! In the name of God...give me a break. They need to read their bibles.
Those with no or little beliefs are quick to call those who do believe anything "less intelligent" or just plain stupid. Intelligence has little to do with religion.
I don't believe in Santa but I don't hang out in the Holiday section trying to change the minds of all those who do believe in Santa, or call them idiots in the name of "enlightment". Nor do I post quesitons like: What kills more people Santa or Aids? Where is the PROOF there is a Santa?

Because some people just ARE!! Let them be..If you do not agree with them or they do not agree with you..Why does that really matter..Either they are not very secure in themselves or you are not very secure in yourself..This talk is here..Always has been always will be..If you can not take an insult every now and again you should not be in here, perhaps?..Some people are just rude and others are just nice..It is truly a spectacular mix of the real world..Would you not say?

I would say the bulk of those that are quick to insult are insecure in their own beliefs, and therefore must tear down others. If what you are getting at is that we should all be respectful of other peoples beliefs and expect the same in return, then I agree.

I agree. If you don't want to be offended, don't go to a particular section or question if you think you'll get offended. Everyone must get offended every day, but some people just take it too hard. LET THINGS GO! DON'T HOLD GRUDGES! Don't love your soulmate for their faults, love them for everything including their faults! Most people are simply too ignorant to know the right path to travel on or have a limited vocabulary.

Good point. This place is full of those who are not actually of one religion, but pose as them to try to incite hatred.
For instance, some of the athiest people are quick to tell others they are going to hell even though they don't believe in hell.
A lot of them are young kids who just like to make mischief. Some though are actual "retards"

It often makes people feel better about themselves to try and make people feel, or appear stupid, some seem to think that the better the insult the better their argument. I sometimes do this, but feel ashamed afterwards.
As you said, it is no good way to exchange ideas.

actually, a fag is NOT a cigar; a 'fag' is a cigarette-a cigar is a stogie....i suspect that people have been insulting each other since there have been people on Earth, and will continue to do so as long as people exist
