Dear Christians,
When you ask me to respect your beliefs, what is it you're asking me to respect?
When you ask me to respect your beliefs, what is it you're asking me to respect?
Is it the idea that I deserve to spend eternity in hell just because I don't share your belief?
Is it the idea that, because a woman was tricked into eating a piece of fruit, by a *talking
snake*, that all of humanity is subsequently flawed and full of 'sin'?
Is it the idea that when your god regretted making humans, he killed them all, including all babies and children, and killed all the animals?
Should I respect the idea of forcing children to live in fear of hell?
Are you asking me to respect the idea that homosexuality is an abomination and that if a man lies with a man, as with a woman, he deserves to die?
Is it the idea that I can beat my slaves as much as I like - providing I don't beat them so badly that they die within three days?
Are you asking me to respect the idea that I shouldn't suffer a witch to live?
Do you want me to respect the idea that a rapist, or a murderer, can get into heaven, as long as they find Jesus and are saved, but I can't get into heaven as an atheist?
Is it the idea that to save humanity from his very own plan, god sent himself to Earth, as his own son, to then sacrifice himself as his son, to himself as his father, in order to save us from hell...which is his idea and plan in the first place?
Am I to respect your belief that it's more important that a child is raped, than your god impact the free will of the rapist?
Are you wanting me to respect the idea that a human sacrifice is the only pathway your god could have chosen in order to get people into heaven?
Is it the idea that when allegedly presented with an empty tomb, you think the explanation of 'a man rose from the dead' is more reasonable than 'something else happened'?
Sorry to tell you, as much as you think I should respect your beliefs, I just can't.
