I am all for religion, or organized thought however, it is really bothersome when someone tries to force their beliefs on you. Someone yesterday said they believe in a deity that believes in the goodness of people and that is what I think should be the foundation of religion. I grew up Catholic, but currently am on a path to find out what is right for me. I have found recently several hyper-religious people who feel the need to judge other people for their decisions or actions, and do so publicly via Facebook or other outlets. Do not scorn me. You have the right to believe what you want and so do I. Because my actions do not align with your beliefs does not make me a sinner.
These are the same people who live the Bible so strictly, they still believe gay people are sinners. That they are, and I quote, "giving into the temptation of sin." What sin are they committing? Is love a sin?
People don't understand that the world is always evolving and changing and stuff that might have been right thousands of years ago isn't what is right for us now. It is the same reason why laws have changed, to better suit our society.
