You know I grew up in a country which taught tolerance among different faiths.
As a believer in God I can accept people from other faiths fairly well especially when theirs is a monotheistic one.
I don't even in the slightest hate atheists.
But what I don't get is that many atheists seem to share a passion of hating anything religious. I mean they don't have tolerance towards anything religious.
I for one think even atheism is just another belief but this will anger too many atheists.
Tolerance is not taught in schools abroad? and taken as a value? Or is it because atheism attracts too many fundamentalists and view anything religious as hostile? Could it be guilt masquerading as aggression? or fear? or pas disappointment that resulted in blaming God? For one if one day I found that God didn't exist I'd just happily stop believing simple and square.
I may draw flaks from this post but at least I expressed myself on the way this thread has been used.
