i am a christian , living in a middle easten country (where almost half of citizens are muslims and half christian). yesterday, me and some christian friends were discussing marriage between these 2 religions.and we know a girl who got married to a muslim. they started to say bad words and swear at her abt how she betrayed her christianity (although it was a civil marriage and she still is christian and still have her beliefs in christianity)
when i started to argue with them abt it, how they have no right to control what others do and how its none of their business. they said its our opinion, u have urs...u should respect our opinion.
sorry but this is no opinion.
since they have been born, they have been fead by their racist parents abt muslims (my dad is racist towards this too, but it didn't affect me). this is not their personal opinion. they know nth abt islam. they just know that they should hate muslims. why? euhhh just because! or because some stupid wrong interpretation of the quran
and with all of this, i which if all christians follow christianity to the fullest. my friends, mayb they read the bible once in their life, at school, in religion class. they go to church on occasions and holidays to dress up. but guess what? they are christianss.. yeaaahh!
First be a true christ follower, then, read abt islam, and they don't agree with it, fine! that's called an opinion. but hate ALL the ppl in it and discriminate them? that's a stereotype!
there's no excuse for racism!
everywhere there's gd and bad ppl.. doesnt matter which religion!
i would also like to point out that i also really dislike the fact that when a child is born into a family (of any religion, nth specific), the child immediatly takes after the parents religion. i find no excuse to it. their beliefs are decided for them before they can even talk!
they say in religion there's free will... i dont think so. it is imposed on ppl. a soul doesnt decide in which family of which religion it will be born with.
if a person reads and gets informed and then disagrees with the beliefs of a certain religion, its his opinion...that's called opinion.
here's an example: just like i didnt decide that my name will be carla, and my parents chose it for me. u can't hate me because u knew a carla that u didnt like.
so is religion.
religion is sth gd, it is a way of life. not a reason to discriminate a life. and i believe every religion has a gd msg behind.
i try to deliver this message everywhere... its not an opinion, its a fact. but unfortunatly, i get the same msg: this is my opinion and u can't change it!
pfff.. im sorry but this is no opinion. its a brainwash
