Does anyone here think there is too much religious entitlement here on DU?

410. Justin, a little motherly advice

You are confident and content in your beliefs. You treat others with respect and kindness. Don't worry so much about people ridiculing your beliefs in an online forum. They have a right to their point of view and you have a right to yours.

I feel safe in saying that much of the world considers my Dieties to be myths and myself delusional for my beliefs and practices and many think my beliefs are evil. They are entitled to their opinions and as long as they are not infringing on my rights or threatening to cause harm, I just let it roll off my back, because I am confident in my beliefs and need no outside validation. Also it's just not worth stressing over.

Find comfort in knowing that out in the real world, in the US, you will rarely face bigotry in regards to your religion. Out there is what truly matters.

If someone were to call me crazy or delusional, my response to that is to say "I don't mind that you feel that way, I understand we have different views on the topic of religion and I am content with mine."
