If I told you Udo is always with me, hears my thoughts, and helps me if I ask him - so long as what I'm asking is in accordance with his will, of course - would you respect that belief? Or would you think I'm crazy?
If I told you that when I die I'm going to take a similar form to Udo - he created me in his image, after all - and the two of us were going to hang out in paradise for eternity, would you respect that belief? Or would you think I'm crazy?
If I convinced enough people that Udo was real and they befriended him, too, and we worked to make society comply with our beliefs - perhaps even killed others in Udo's name because they didn't share our beliefs - would you respect our beliefs? Or would you think we were crazy?
I think we all know the answer to those questions.
And yet, I'm supposed to respect religion?
If you're not a religious person, then just don't post in the thread. If you don't like it, you don't have to read the posts. It's disrespectful to the posters on here that do believe in something more. You have a right to your own opinion, but don't go around and bash people's faith.
