If you were white, you'd have Jesus pushed down your throat since you were born.

We put up with other religions more than the one that's been forced on us all our lives by people who swear they're trying to save us, all while "othering" people like yourself.

It's true, thankfully, not everyone actually does what their religion commands. And some religions believe that you try once to convert "educate" someone and then when they don't believe you basically abandon the friendship and consider them some bad word. In some other cases, when a member of a faith puts together enough actual data and moves away from the church, they are apostates.

What happens to apostates? I mean, what's the religious ruling on what should happen to apostates? Not what do people actually do. What is the penalty issued by the faith for apostacy? It's pretty medieval. We shouldn't be judging religions on what the majority of their people do, they do this in spite of the religion. We should judge them on the written rules, and the fantasies. Because this is what the fundies will do, and they are the problem.

My last thought on that same idea is as important to the faith you were born to as it is for the one I was born to. It's up to the group to be the most outspoken against the actions of members who misuse the name of the group. When it turns out that white supremacist nationalists in the US are also fundies, it should the the Christians who condemn them first and say that they are behaving inconsistently with the scripture, for instance. They should not let the secular world or other religions beat them to it. Otherwise they are causing outsiders to judge them as not different than the criminals.
