..and also that the God is the same for all of them, they just have different lore.
Different DLCs, as it were
Jew is the base, Christian and Muslim are DLC
There are more even, which surprised me when I first found out. Even Rastafari is listed as Abrahamic there.
More like jew is sequel and first part was zaratusztrianizm
More like faction choices.
The same fictional all seeing man who cares when they masturbate or who they make love to.
Can't unsee
I mean, considering what happened next in this episode...
As a boomer, I don't recall my parents teaching me anything about prejudice, the same at school. The only guidance on prejudice came from my religious education (I'm RC by birth) and to be honest it was completely the opposite to this sentiment. We were taught, for example, that Protestants were evil and that we should never befriend them or trust them.
I stopped going to church when I was about 11, it no longer felt relevant and the teachings were against my own personal beliefs. I had grown up with friends who were of different faiths, Jewish, Protestant, Muslim as well as Catholic, and didn't consider them to be anything other than buddies.
Some religious teachings have value, but by promoting prejudice as well, the impact is diminished. The only times I have been in church since I was 11 were for weddings and funerals.
Right, they're not a problem for me. We could get along all day but I'm a problem to them as a gay atheist.
E: I'd really like to know why the downvotes. I've literally been discriminated against for one or the other by religious people alike for the exact same reasons regardless of creed. I'm not just gonna forget that to sing along to kumbaya and pretend the world is rosy.
I feel this. I've met a few exceptions (including my sister, who is wonderful and my best friend), but much of the time I can only get along with religious people until they find out I'm queer. It's pretty uncommon, at least where I live, to meet a religious person who'd even want to be friends with me, knowing that.
Right! Like the moderator up top said don’t criticize people for their beliefs. Are you fucking kidding me?! So their belief that you should be killed is OK?
We all know how the cartoon will go in a couple of seconds.
Only a select few people actually profit from hatred and division between us. Let's not give them that twisted satisfaction. ✊🏼
Idk, a lot of people relish in doing the discrimination. You can see it in their faces that they're having a grand ol' time making others miserable.
Yeah but they don't derive any material benefit from the misery. Only the politicians are profiting from hate.
Hell, my Jewish friends be hanging out with my Muslim friends.
