[U]But,[/U]if Azz, or myself, just as examples, made comments about "aspects of a religion we dislike", say, for example, christianity, people will accuse us of religious prejudice.
Yet a christian criticising islam is not religious prejudice???
But thats all bit odd really, surely its the wrong way around?
Azz and I dont show religious prejudice, as we think they are all dumb equally
Whereas, you guys are showing biases all other the place, be it Rune with her RE in schoos bias toward C of E plus one or two 'approved major religions', Ramble and her knee jerkism about racism just because someone moans about Muslim Halal (yet doesnt say the same when chrisitinaity comes up), or Luthien harking we are a C of E country, you wouldnt want a catholic monarch!!
Sounds like a whole bunch of relgious prejudice to me!!!
.
One wonders sometime how you can bare to grace us lesser mortals with your presence, being on such a higher plain than the rest of us, it must be terribly frustrating for you, to have to continually inform us of our misgivings.
Not sure why someone would be accused of religous preducie , for simply voicing something you dont like about it.
I an not predudiced about Islam, I dislike some of its practices, as I dislike some practices of other religions too , including my own.
I have no problem with your aithisam or dislike of my relgion, what I do object to , (in other threads) is the mockery that gets thrown onto those who beleive in a God, by some who dont.
if one does not believe, that fine we all have free wil, but dont mock those who do.
Seems we have gone way of topic now

Exackery what i just posted!
Im not an atheist.
And you guys always say its "mockery" when we talk about your favourite religion, but when its another religion and you are commenting upon it, it just "comment".
I can see muslims up and down the land now up in arms at your mockery of their religion
Its Chef from South Park all over again.

I`m not mocking anyone .
I referred to the term , in response to your post stating .......
NO ONE , in this thread has "mocked " any religion , not sure why you seem to think otherwise.
Think I need to go get another glass of wine, it might make the way this thread has gone a little clearer

So, no matter how hard I try and trust me I have, I just can't believe in he/she/it/them, or follow any religion there of.
However, if I'm proven wrong then so be it.
What does that make me? agnostic, or atheist.
