Religion is bullshit and everyone that believes in it are deluded fuck heads

I'm not trying to start an argument, but why would i respect someone who is religious because their parents are? My parents could be addicted to crack, or help the homeless at a shelter. At no point does this mean i 'should' or am 'inclined' to copy what they do. I cannot respect someone who only follows a religion because they are told to, or because their parents, or neighbourhood do. You have to know all the facts and then decide for yourself, if my parents ever tried to push religion on me id move out. Or as i did when i was younger, id just not follow it. Its not being disrespectful to your parents, its having a mind of your own.

Wikipedia's opening line on the word sums up where I am with this:



I don't respect or disrespect people by default, I'm indifferent towards them. If they do good things, they earn my respect. If they do bad things, they gain only disrespect. I know the wording sounds incredibly high and mighty, but I can't think of another way to word it.

So in other words the whole speech about you not respecting people of religion is bullshit because in the same way you don't respect atheists until they 'do good things'?

You're misrepresenting what I said. Here's what I actually said:



Clearly I used the word 'beliefs', not 'persons'.

Regardless, I don't respect nor disrespect anyone until I know something more about them than merely their theistic (dis)beliefs. Generally those don't come into it unless they're on the extreme side of the spectrum.

The religious beliefs themselves on the other hand instantly warrant disrespect from me as I perceive them to be unreasonable, irrational and a whole host of other things.

be a muslim , every muslim is happy

Virgin birth is possible from artificial insemination The idea of a virgin woman could be that of a man ejaculating onto her vagina, without penetration. 1 teaspoon of sperm is the average amount a person ejaculates, this contains 300-500 million sperm. Just your pre-cum, which is very small compared to that, is possible to impregnate a girl.

Jesus did not skip from birth to 30, there are stories of him actually not being the best of a child. He was actually a troublemaker. It wasn't until his teens that he matured and began to realize what he had. He had actually, if I am not mistaken, killed a boy and used his powers to revive him during his youth.



God man Adam and Lillith. Lillith rejected the idea of being equal to man. Lillith became nothing to god. God pulled the rib from Adam and created Eve. Eve, a woman, is now made from man. Man is now above women. There is no Apple, the Apple is just a suggestive translation. It could be anything.

There is also a lot of words in the bible that have been translated that actually can mean other things and just the small change in wording would make an entirely different statement. That's why only those who can read in Hebrew and read it properly will understand the true meaning of the bible. Anyone basing their beliefs off a translation is believing in something similar to the "word of god" but in truth, it isn't the true "word of god".

There is also a lot missing from the bible.

BTW, Agnostic here.

You're skipping around the issue here, how are you intending on disrespecting religious beliefs without disrespecting the person in question?

I don't respect any religious views, but if you say that you can't respect the person is saying that their religious view are the only thing to respect about them. When this is not true. Just because someone dislikes a specific belief of yours doesn't mean that is the only thing to respect.
