Subject: RE: BS: Follow Jesus, not religion Andrew Sullivan
When I tried to post some of my beliefs about life and death from a "spiritual" viewpoint some months ago, I was attacked and ridiculed relentlessly until I just had to stop. I wasn't trying to force it on anyone. I just wanted to talk about it, which proved impossible. Which is why I don't discuss it anymore. And yet some of these same people are now saying we shouldn't be attacking others' beliefs. Pardon me if I don't take you seriously. What we shouldn't be doing is discussing or sharing those beliefs in any way, shape or form. I was wrong to do it and the hostility I received proved it. But that also means anyone else doing it is also wrong and therefore deserves to have those beliefs attacked. No more double standards. Just keep your religious and philosophical beliefs to yourself. End of problem.
