I completely understand how you...Hello there Math!<br /><br />I completely understand how you feel. Even having experienced such things myself, I am still flabbergasted when I see others speak of it. Even worse is I know others have had it a LOT worse than I have. Also you would think, that even on a most basic level, people would get along just to avoid the drama and extra crap in their lives. Sadly it seems some people just can not live without causing stress,suffering,grey hairs for others. It's disgusting really :(<br /><br />Tolerance also really depends where you live in North America. It seems once you get at least a mile or two (think that is between 600 and 1200 meters to you) away from the more "crazy" churches, things really seem to calm down. Enter the more liberal part of town and the attitude turns from fire and death to either friendly curiosity or "we really don't care about religion here, be cool and we will be cool".bookofstorieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14220507594275219138noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8714985295476447494.post-27819124835246249692012-06-07T02:47:15.461-07:002012-06-07T02:47:15.461-07:00The bigotry you went through is so intense that it...The bigotry you went through is so intense that it seems unreal to me. I had to read parts of your rambling twice for my brain to register all of it. I'm glad I was born in french Canada... Religion has lost most of its influence here since 1960 or so, and even my Catholic teacher in religion class never said a word against my pentacle. I thought such tolerance was the rule in the rest of North America, but now I wonder if it's just a local exception.Mathnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8714985295476447494.post-19243204428709513682012-05-24T11:27:28.068-07:002012-05-24T11:27:28.068-07:00@BronT
It is regrettable what many people of gott...@BronT<br /><br />It is regrettable what many people of gotten in their heads. "You are different from me, so you must be evil" isn't something that should be lived by, difference should be embraced or at least tolerated (assuming they do no harm). Maybe one day many of the followers of Christ who seem fit to hate and condemn will remember Christ didn't come to do that.bookofstorieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14220507594275219138noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8714985295476447494.post-4045825507736627772012-05-24T11:25:17.498-07:002012-05-24T11:25:17.498-07:00@Ravenna
