Lack of respect.?

Question

I've noticed a lack of respect in the Christian community for anyone who practices paganism despite the fact that several of their holidays and customs come from the faith they call evil, but they're more accepting of other non abrahamic faith systems. You'd think after burning us for 1000 years they'd feel they'd done enough damage to our faith. Why after 1000 years do they still perpetuate the horrible stereotypes they started, but they are accepting of other faiths ?

You know, funny you should mention that, the Bible said nothing about witchcraft until the KJV, where certain passages were changed to reflect the current policy. In fact Jesus is reported to have gone to the Druid academy in what is now the UK. If Jesus liked us, maybe y'all could show a little common courtesy?

See? It's not about what we beleive or do not. It's about respecting us, and not just deciding we're obviously evil. Christians dont dismiss buddists, or Shinto-ists as evil- why us?

Answer 1

I think it's because historically the conquerors were Christian and the ones they conquered were pagan. The winners demonized the gods of those they overtook. As for the holidays, festivals were held at the same time to keep the natives happy. I'm not wording this very well, but I hope you catch my meaning.

Answer 2

I think we should respect each other as people in general. And as i've said before if you dont' believe the same way I do that's up to you i'm not going to force my opinion down your throat. If asked I will give an opinion and i'm glad to try to help anyone at all if I can. But believe me it's not only you that gets disrespected Christians get disrespected as well.
