Yeah, that sort of shit irks me to no end.
You don't have to accept or believe everything you are told or learn about - in fact, it's much better if you are skeptical of it all at first. If people still want to hold that the Earth is flat because the church says so, so be it. That's their choice. It's dumb as hell, but if they choose that, then there's nothing I can or should do about it other than argue with them about how they are wrong. They should be able to justify it though - back it up with something. It's not ideal, but that's how respect of beliefs works. |
Exactly, too bad there's nothing in any of the "holy books" that explain our tail bone, yet the evolutionary theory makes it clear as crystal. I've challenged many aspects of the bible before with some of my thick headed relatives and friends over the years. I would get lame fucking responses like "god is always watching...talk like that will only anger him.. Do you want to go to hell" ... I almost told my uncle to fuck off once in a family gathering 2 years ago when we were going back and forth on this subject. I angered him when I told him that the actions of the Vatican church and the "Holy" Knights templar were murderers who tried to force their beliefs to villagers and less privileged common folk, it was so much fun.
