It's a two way street.
I find it rather amusing how some here can say that christians
or religious people in general are intolerant, and are generally
quite quick and liberal to apply all kinds of labels on them
forgetting that the MAJORITY of religious people are actually quite
tolerant and respectful of people who do not share their views.
After all it's the intolerant and ignorant that make the news.
Going by the same logic, are you really any better then Rony
Tan? After all you can criticize him for being ignorant and biased
by not bothering to truly know the people he critiques? Are you not
doing the same thing?
As I said, it's a two way street, the excesses and follies of
religious people who are blind and insensitive in not regarding the
views and feelings of others seem to be quite present in many in
here who think that it's a cool thing to use heavy-hitting words
around in here, ironically by those who are angered by such
behaviour.
Just a thought.
I would respect you if you critique religion, Rony Tan and what
have you not in the way YOU think he should have done it- that is
in a engaging and honest way that does not disrespect them... but
if you are basically using his own methods to retort... then you
are pretty much a joke are you not?
