How Society should view religious beliefs.

*Thread is in response to XBoxdotcom's thread* Our society should transcend the need to respect religious beliefs when forming norms and paradigms. Religious views mean nothing and should not be taken into consideration when something such as a school year is being planned or an event is taking place. Discuss If you agree, comment If you don't agree, tell me why. Edit: For those that don't agree, think about it this way "The only way to please everyone, is to please no one"

    We need to be respectful. Would you like to also say this about traditions? Ok so lets say no one likes religion or traditions. World is boring, we are all just playing holo chess until we die, and we know when we die there is no afterlife, so we fear death and try to live forever. No one can find a cure so out of panic we all revolt and overthrow the government and decide to create a religion to comfort us. Why is religion bad? I do not know how it could be bad. There are just some people who are bad, not the religion. Today society is suppose to accept people's beliefs and skin color, and nationality, and culture. To stop tolerating religion is to cause mayhem and destruction, and to form no terrorist groups, also it would be promoting racism. Here is an example of how respect for religion is. I have friends who do not believe in God. That does not bother me because they are not jerks about me believing in God, and an afterlife. Can't we all just accept beliefs? I know this is a very controversial thig to talk about now, and that shows how intolerant some of today's people are. Just let everyone believe what they want. Another example: you wouldn't tell a 5 year who believes in Santa and the Easter Bunny, and the Tooth fairy that they are not real, would you? I wouldn't! You may say: "oh but their Parents will tell then eventually!" That may be true but the parents would be mad at you, and you would make the 5 year old cry. Please be accepting, and be open minded, and understand that discrimination is not tolerated.
