SO MUCH FOR TOLERANCE

OK, I'm assuming many of you have seen these two posts: the person who wants to play Destiny with others within the LGBT/Furry community, and the person who wants to play with Christians. Now let me say first this is not going to devolve into a theological or argument about morals. When the guy(or girl) who made his post about playing with other Christians, his thread was torn apart. He, his beliefs, and anyone who sided with him were discriminated and made fun of. He was told countless times that he was wrong and stupid for believing what he did. Now today there was another post made by a guy(or girl) wishing to play with with those in the LGBT and "furry" communities. This thread, thankfully, was met with nothing but kind words and willingness to play, even by those who were not LGBT. Why is there a difference between the responses to the Christian post and the LGBT/furry post? Neither was condemning those who didn't think like them, simply asking to play with like-minded people of similar backgrounds, yet one was discriminated and made fun of. Why is this OK? We supposedly live in this generation of tolerance, where everyone's beliefs and lifestyles are to be accepted, so why the intolerance? Everybody should remember the Golden rule, treat others the way you want to be treated. Ok guys, it's getting a little out of hand. This is not a topic about religion, it is about respecting each other. Remember, just be nice to people. It doesn't cost anything. You're not required to agree with them, but do not belittle or discriminate against them for thinking differently than you do.

    Because the Christians have been in bad news alot lately. Now the human mind is easily influenced by news. If you keep telling a country that grass grows better with Water with sugar in it. They will believe it. Especially when you show some statistics. Why say this? Well, since we are accepting everyone for who he/she is, more and more. No matter what sexual prefence they might have. Now when a Party says it's a disgrace and against my believes so they shouldn't have the same rights as that party has. Like Christians and gay marriage. They aren't tolerant. And they get bad publicity around the other people. Now imagine, that we see every Christian the same. They all want to ban or prevent Gay Marriage. Not so hard hey? Now the Atheists see a Christian (Innocent or not) they go bashing him, Because his religion is intolerant against homosexuals. But He might not be. But his religion is. Prejudice runs on both sides. Intolerance as well. This will never end. It's like Isreal vs Palestina. Xbox vs PS. Capitalism vs Communism. It never ends, because we cannot rise above this. It just shows how primitive we are. How stupid we can be and how idiotic we will become.
