For anyone to answer: do you categorize all under the same group?

Question

For eample, do you categorize all Christians as the same? All atheists? All Muslims? Or do you just not "like" certain people of some category, and think, like anyone of any race or group, that some are good, while some give that group a bad name?

On the other hand, do you just hate/despise certain groups for the actions or words of what only a some or a few in that group do?

Say why or why not?

Answer 1

Well, if you were to say that because of a few, then the whole group is bad, that would make you a bigot, or some form of bigot.

I personally believe there are good and bad examples of every group. Though we often have stereotypes of what each group is or should be. For instance the stereotype is that Christians are all loud-mouth hypocrites. That is far from the truth if you attend many Churches that I've been too. Not that it is not the truth of some Christians, but you cannot apply that as a whole across the board.

Just like not all Muslims, nor the majority, are insane Jihad warriors. The Koran does teach non-violence, and violence as a last resort. So you cannot classify all Muslims as whack-jobs.

I believe that there are more good than bad in any given group. There are many more loving, caring Christians out there than there are loud-mouth hypocrites, but people only see the hypocrites cause they are loud-mouthed.

I came up with a saying once, and it goes not only for Christians, but that is who it is about...

It takes only a few words to say "I am a Christian", but it takes the example of your life to show that you are a Christian.

Mahayana and Vajrayana use Theravadin practices, nevertheless now and returned in a changed style.

Some people rationalize violent acts by saying it is their "God's will" when it is in fact their own will. I give people the benefit of the doubt that they are good until they prove otherwise.
