If the shoe were on the other foot



"We despise all reverences and all the objects of reverence which are outside the pale of our own list of sacred things. And yet, with strange inconsistency, we are shocked when other people despise and defile the things which are holy to us." - Mark Twain

We're not so different



If you know me, chances are you know I don't follow any religion. You may know that I sometimes rail against Christianity.  You may also know, I have similar feelings for most religions.

What you may not know  is,  I have no desire to end your religion. I will never knock on your door at 7:00am Saturday morning to tell you, " God does not exist. You are not going to Hell if you don't change."

I do not wish you harm because you pray to a god of your understanding. Regardless of whether it's  Christianity, Islam, Judaism, Santeria, Sikhism, Hinduism,  Paganism, or whatever, you are very close to my feelings on religion. That is, you disbelieve all of them, save yours. I just don't believe yours either.

I have no belief in 4,200 religions, the theist has no belief in 4,199 religions.
See, We are the same :-)



Namaste.
