Sounds super offensive...
Im anti-religious for a reason, History shows how well a total belief in your religion can lead to bad things.
everything from science suppression and oppression of minorities. Im transgender and bi; Christianity has been a roadblock one of some serious worry for my kind. So yeah I dont consider those people or types of people reasonable. In the US Christianity is a cult in some states. the fact that I can make a destinction really just shows my patience and loyalty to histories complex nature.
something that irks me greatly though is peoples insistance that religion should be protected like race or sexuality. its not a trait- its an idea and one that can be varied. you might as well protect political constructs too at that point. I like the ability to criticize these things. I shouldnt be forced to publicly respect someones ideas, speacially if theyre lamentable Like that homophobic belief christians sometimes hold.. but thats just a tangent.
