    Thanks.

    If whatever you believe means you feel you have the right to be unkind to people who believe otherwise, it’s problematic. Even if you want to hold onto a different definition of whatever it is you believe, if you use it as an excuse to be unkind it’s still a problem. It’s not the label that’s the problem, it’s the behavior.

    If you end up acting just like them, why should anyone believe you’re any different?

    Very “it’s not a warcrime if it’s not wartime” energy.

      Sounds something that a nazi would say.

      It’s the same tolerance paradox. I don’t have to be kind if your “beliefs” create suffering.

          Text comprehension isn’t your strongest side, is it? But then again, religion has been suppressing education for centuries, so it makes sense.
