re: #11 Sionainn

perhaps I’m being unfair, but tying in with a number of other things that have come up in discussion (and limiting it just to LGF) its something that comes up a lot. Applying other arguments to this discussion probably isn’t fair to you guys tho :p

re: #12 Sionainn

heh thx >> I guess what I’m saying is, at least for younger people (or maybe just for me :p), that’s what’s often offputting. It’s the sense of ‘we’re superior and special, and they just feel threatened by us’.

None of us are superior and special, especially in the area of faith. The only things we can argue are ‘who’s right’ (which has no solution) and more importantly ‘who’s actively doing harm’. Al Qaeda, the Khmer Rouge, and the inquisition all had particular beliefs that did immense harm, and those groups deserve scorn, but not the groups they’re basing themselves on.
