MODERATORS
The culture of other people, and by proxy their religion, does deserve respect. We are talking about tradition that has been passed from generation upon generation. This inheritely demands respect, assuming your not a redditor who sees themselves as above everyone else.
"I am right and if you disagree you belong to [group of people I don't like]."
Yikes, spoken like a true religious person.
I'm not religious, I just have basic fucking empathy. Great strawman BTW.
Did you really not get that lol
You are reducing my point of "cultures inheritely demand respect for its generational perseverance" down to "I am right" You either can't think of a valid argument against my point, or you somehow gained enough compassion to not want to argue that other people's culture is not inheritely respectable.
I don't need to argue facts. But you go ahead and have fun with that if you want.
Yeah no I see that. God forbid you be wrong, right?
