Religion
In reply to the discussion: bigotry abounds [View all]Irishonly
(3,344 posts)It was one of the first groups I checked out when I joined. It has never bothered me what someone's religious views are or if someone is agnostic or atheist. My friends are in all religious groups, agnostics and atheists. I am getting old enough that I am just tired of snarking at people and figure there is enough to be worried about in this world without getting obsessed with an fairly innocent statement.
I also avoid the Obama wars. It is my little obsession and I am not going to do anything about it. I strive for peace in my life and don't enjoy silly conflicts. This isn't a slam on the group and had I realized where the original post was, I would not have commented. I was just so upset that a hate crime was committed and as I said the church was not in my first thought when I read it. Had all of the nativity been destroyed my view may have been different but that is a different discussion.
