they don't like you because you don't believe in the same faith or same religion as them.

So. According to you, your race changes when you believe a different religion?
The word you're looking for is not "racist".
Perhaps what you're observing is the banter between those who have found the truth and those who have a concrete mind. (thoroughly mixed up and permanently set)

there are more good 'religious' people then bad. the good ones are alot more quiet then the bad.
just because someone is 'religious', it doesnt mean that they are perfect and withou sin! they make mistakes too
religion should never be used as a means to threaten others and make them feel uncomfortable. religion is about peace and love, respect and making others welcome.
people twist religion for their own selfish purposes. this is very wrong. religion is not an evil thing. people can use it for evil purposes.
if someone insults you, tell them that its not right and that that is not what religion is all about. some people believe that they are right and everyone else is wrong. bad attitude to have!
dont worry about these people too much! they cant tell you what to do and you dont have to listen to them or their comments.
have a nice day!!!
smile!! :-) things get better!

Because they are fake. People are people..with feelings and interests and needs besides religion. Jesus has not come back yet and while there is breath left in peoples body, there is still hope they will accept Jesus. So, that being the case..we are to love one another..even our enemies..and love can also just mean respect and tolerance. There is no excuse to express hateful and racist remarks or put them into actions.

prejudice is not a respecter of persons. Most all people harbor some bias. Not just believers. No one is perfect. Just doing the best we can in this world.

If they are acting racist isn't it true that,that would be a learned behaviour then...doing what they have seen others do.Imperfection is certainly no excuse...however if they are sincere do you think it is possible for God to lead them in the right direction.

They are that way because they believe that is how their God is!
God is a racist. Imagine that!
Believing one religion to be superior is no different then believing one race to be superior! It is all a form of racism!

Most religions claim in one way or another they are the "chosen" people. Right there it sets them off as better than everyone else.

Because it is their duty, and ultimate goal, under their religion, to try to get you to "see the light" and convert you to their religion. When they see their attempts fail, and you remain steadfast in your convictions, in their eyes, you have chosen the wrong path, and are not on the same level with them.

Same reason some atheists act so racist.
