Now we have to be on the lookout for "anti-Christian" bias

The entitlement on display is astounding. What about the important holidays of other religions that lack the lay resonance of Christmas?

And, sorry, homophobia is not a protected religious practice.

They come to the same conclusion high IQ people of every culture and religion eventually come to- religion is a bunch of hogwash created in a time when spiritual beliefs were necessary to police society.


It's not hogwash. It was the era's effort at making sense of the world.

The idiots that still truly believe in the most prominent religions of the world should be able to practice as they wish as long as they aren't infringing on other's rights. This goes for all CHRISTIANS, Muslims, and Jews. Practice your bull crap all you want but you must stop HATING on others just because they aren't in your CULT. I ain't putting up with it no mo.

People who identify as Christian are not some monolithic group.


Then it is time to speak up and show it, then.

Doing the good work humbly and quietly. I never believed in hell, but Jesus take the wheel on these fckers.

Are they making hostile comments about the "tenants of Christianity" or are they just criticizing right-wing politics?

Starting in the 1970s, evangelical Christianity has become less of a religion and more of a right-wing political movement.

OFFS. Are you standing up for co-workers who want to take off holidays that aren't Christian? No, no you are not. And you do not for one minute see that as "anti-Hindu" -- you see it as anti-everyone-wanting-time-off-for-their-own-beliefs-when-it-isn't-convenient-for-me.

Also, no one needs to take off Good Friday, FFS.

We're pretty much at this point making fun of all the conservative religious people of the world. Get over it people. Your religion isn't what you were brainwashed to think it was. Love everyone.

This is my post. I won't engage further except to note that the posts between this response and my original post provide at least some support for my point.

Agree, religion does as much harm on this planet as it does help. The senseless hate has to stop.

I highly doubt any christian is unable to take Christmas, Easter or Good Friday off from work. Most school systems close for these things.

They support the point that you are a hypocrite, if you only want your days off and don't support the rights of others to take their days off.

And I don't see people of other religions foisting policy down your throat the way "pro-life" is foisted on everyone else.

I'm no fan of religion as I realize it's all based on a fake premise but I do think people of all faiths should be given the same freedoms to practice as they please so long as they aren't infringing on other's freedoms.

I thought recently some evangelical Christian’s were convinced Trump was the actual anti-Christ?

We are at slippery slope time. If someone is pro-choice, does that make them anti-Christian? If someone calls out the crimes in the Administration, does that make them anti-Christian? If anyone is Jewish, Hindu, Muslim or any other religion, does that make them anti-Christian?


If/when I witness ill will cast towards anyone in my network that is based on bigotry of any kind, I will work towards thwarting that threat with every resource I have. Do the same.
