Ok...you've got the word racism meaning hatred toward other races...So is there a word for religious people that think the same way about religion? I know people are going to say that religious people don't "hate" others...but come on now...I haven't met one person that doesn't have a problem with someone elses beliefs. I just want to know what that word is.

If I knew the word for it would I have posted a question asking it? I'm asking because my boyfriend and I were wondering. He is Lutheran and I am Agnostic. We enjoy discussing religion...

It is GOD-

Supreme Being. Each of the major monotheistic world religions worships a Supreme Being, who is the sole god of the universe, the maker of all things, omniscient and all-powerful. God is also good. In ancient Israel God was named Yahweh. The God of the Hebrew Bible also became the God of Christianity, but generic words, such as theos in Greek or Deus in Latin, were often used to refer to him by other religion.

I do not thing there is any dispute about GOD is there and he is called in different names according to their individual faiths, belief etc., etc., -

When Jesus was comforted by the crowd because of their none belief. He charge them with the word HYPOCRITE to say I am a Christian and yet in their inner mind flares with prejudice, racism and as you have clearly wrote Hate-Hatred.

If there were more Christians in this world, would they really love each other as Christ taught (us) them? If so would JFK and Martin Luther King will be still a live or at least of not had died the way they did? Since we're honest with other and know the truth. We must avoid practicing other so-call christian failures.

There are already too many ugly labels, we better see human beings as our brothers and sisters and we will peacefully seek consensus for a better living. All childish disputes may end soon to make way for love, unity, peace.

Hmmm......interesting question, I never though about this before, but I might say intolerant. There is most likely a better term out there, but that is what comes to mind when I read you question.

since you said you haven't met one person that doesn't have a problem with someone elses beliefs, i guess you are also including yourself, so what do you call it?
