I knew I shouldn't have allowed myself to get into this.

WHAT THE BLOODY FUCKING HELL CONCERN OF MINE ARE OTHER PEOPLE'S RELIGIOUS
BELIEFS????????

My relationship is between me and my deity or deities. It is no more my
concern what YOUR relatiuonship is with your deity or deities than it is
what you you had for breakfast.

If you want to discuss your beliefs with me, or I want to discuss my beliefs
with you, then fine, we can have ourselves a pleasant conversation- if it
gets unpleasant, I guarantee I'll terminate it. But there is NO WAY I will
tolerate ANYONE trying to tell me that THEIR way is right, and that
therefore I must do things their way, any more than I would ever attempt to
tell someone else that their way is wrong, and they must believe my way.

In the Christian Bible, there is an appropriate quote, " In my Father's
House, there are many mansions". There isn't anything that says we all hafta
crowd into the same undersized bathroom in the same shack in order to have a
viable relationship with That Which Is. If you are so small minded that you
can't accept the thought that other people have other ways of thinking, then
please, kindly keep your small mind and your selfish thoughts away from me.

One of my firmest tenets of belief, is that That Which Is is big enough,
GOOD enough, to come to us as we can best understand- and my way of
understanding is no more your way, than my shoes are made to fit you.

I'm sure you believe whatever you believe, and I'm sure it's usually a
comfort to you. But keep it to yourself- I'm not interested.

To the rest of you guys on TheForge, my apologies. Narrow minded bigots,
particularly those who attempt to promote their beliefs through emotional
arguments including "terrorist", having nothing to do with the topic under
discussion, really irritate me.
