Why the fuck is Morpheus not being used for anything other than religious topics now?
ThomasBankston
If you say supid, ignorant bullshit I'm going to call you out on it. Regardless of the topic.

I don't look down on them as being unintelligent or gullible... I look down on them as ignorant.

THIS! THANK YOU! I am an agnostic, but I am so sick of the Christian bashing on this site! I love Imgur, but I hate the bigots of all kinds.

Not really, it's equal opportunity. ALL religions get it. (inb4 atheism is somehow a religion)
jimmiesextreme
I prefer to refer to them as metaphysical isms and stances.
Stroodle
It's not equal opportunity if atheists mock religious people but refuse to be mocked themselves
dassemultor
This is such a tangle of weird assumptions...atheists don't respond any worse to mocking than religious people do.
Stroodle
It's not a weird assumption at all. Your original comment is essentially "Anybody can be bullied except the people who believe like me"
dassemultor
No, it isn't. My original comment said it's not 'religious bigotry'. I never said anyone 'can't be bullied'.

I'd ask you to reassess your definition of 'Religious'.
lily10110
Religion is defined as set of beliefs, whether you like it or not even Atheism is a religion by definition.
Bouncehouser
Religion: Noun:
"The belief in and worship of a superhuman controlling power, esp. a personal God or gods"
Stroodle
So, honest question - other than flimsy semantics, what justification do you have to demean religious people? How is that different from
Stroodle
demeaning any other group?
Bouncehouser
People don't automatically owe your views respect. Especially if they see them as damaging. You do not have the right to not be offended.
Stroodle
Yes, but you cannot claim the moral high ground over religion by belittling its practictioners. This makes you the very bullies you accuse
Stroodle
them of being
Bouncehouser
But all you can say is what 'you' find belittling. And bullies bring the torment to you. I'm guessing if you closed your browser...
