Why do you allow people to attack and ridicule Christianity?

Interesting edit you did there...

@Singersong The Lord God Almighty, the Creator of all, my Lord Jesus is above all the mudslinging and name-calling and lie-telling and truth-twisting. We are warned that we live in an age where this happens and it will get worse. Those who do it and those who mock Him will one day have to answer for their words and actions. That's good enough for me for it all to be water off this Christian's duck's back and for me not to be lead astray by any 'piss-taking'.

I know, they really were stupid...

🙄

I said absolutely nothing of the sort but you clearly aren't someone to be taken seriously so I'll leave you to it😂

Trope? You were the one saying that nobody should be allowed to comment because it upset you. Take a look in the mirror...

Reminds me of, IIRC Dawkins, who says something along the lines of "xxx number of human gods, and the only difference between me and the most devout Christian is I believe in one fewer than they do".

Oh of course you were going to wheel out that lazy trope.

And there is the shutting down of argument that we were all talking about...

No we don't have to follow it, and yes we do have a say in the matter. However, Jewish ethnicity is strongly linked to the religion through family, culture, heritage, customs and a very long history of persecution, so I'd suggest comparing it to Jedi'ism is both flippant and offensive. And given that you actually had to ask these questions suggest that you don't know what you're talking about and are therefore in no position to make such a crude and ridiculous comparison, as PP said.

I have a faith of, my understanding. I am really an Omnist, which is I believe there are truths and truthes spirituality in everything.

I like this by Ricky Gervais - it is personal

Why shouldn’t they be compared?

No reason at all why you wouldn’t compare Judaism to an invented 20th century religion

a) rudeness ?
b) anti semitism?
c) ignorance ?

So you don't separate the ethnicity from the belief system? Do ethnic Jews have to follow the religion? Do they not have any say in the matter?

Judaism is linked to ethnicity, even if you're atheist, that's why.

So passage of time legitimises belief systems then?

depends who you are really. A large section of the population freely mock Islam all the time irl and online - and partly because it’s associated with brown and black people. They don’t care if anyone thinks they’re racist.

Islamophobia (and racism) is a big issue in this country. I sometimes wear a headscarf as a fashion accessory and at times I’ve been mistaken for a Muslim especially if I’ve been walking with Asian people .

As a result I’ve had all sorts from hostile looks in the street, to people in agency workplaces starting hostile discussions with me about the rise of Muslim extremism right down to having “ISIS” screamed at me in the supermarket.

My former flatmate (who is actually Jewish) was wearing a headscarf/turban and suspects some cretin assumed she was Muslim when they spat on her from a flat window while she was standing waiting for a bus . It was gross 🤢 the police came to the house to take a sample of the dried up saliva in case it was on the DNA database.

What they said ☝️

It’s all nonsense.

Obviously.

The fact that you think Christianity is seen as a white religion says a lot about you.

There's as much evidence for either. Why shouldn't they be compared?

Religion is complicated. There are family and cultural ties- even if people are atheist.

ok - so you think Jedi’ism is equivalent to Judaism 🙄

Does it's age make it somehow more "respectable"? Why?

Even older religions worshipping the sun or the moon, or an ancient rock, or whatever should be even more respected, should they?

This is just nonsense"

No - it’s not a typo . It’s an attempt to compare an ancient religion with Star Wars . It’s a piss take.
