How dare they

It seems that these days all thats in the news is negativity. But then again, negativity is alawys in the news.

I dont mind negativity, but when i see articles about certain american's not wanting a mosque (its not even just a mosque) to be built 2 blocks away from the twin towers, and then the next day some randoms burning the Quran, or however u spell it .. it pisses me off.

I Don't follow a certain religion, infact i dont follow any religion, but not letting people build a muslim community center 2 blocks away from the twin towers is complete bullshit. It doesn't even make sense, the reason why is because they are afraid of terrorism. What? terrorism.. what they dont know is that terrorism is not bound by some form of religion and just because some people are fucked doesnt make everyone else fucked.

It pisses me off because this act completely contradicts what western society is trying to promote. We are privledged enough to be allowed to believe in whatever we want, Christianity, Scientology, Muslims, Hindu's, Buddist's we have the right and free will to choose what we believe in. Yet we dont now in todays society.

Some pastor wanted to make a day where people burnt the Quaran? There is no logic or common sense behind that, but blind hatred for almost no reason. We put this issue in a context we can more informally understand, You are dating a girl that recently broke up with her Boyfriend, however the boyfriend finds you and beats the living day lights out of you, so in retaliation you hit the girl. What? 911 happens, and is orchestrated by Al-Quaida an ORGANISATION that isnt bound by religion, and so in retalliation we burn the "bible" of a religion? what is happening

What im trying to say is this,

I'm not religious at all, I dont follow the work of the bible or Quaran. I may even toatlly disagree with religion as a whole, but that does NOT mean I can disregard religion as a whole. I believe in belief itself, the idea that i believe that YOU have the RIGHT to believe in what YOU believe, i may not agree with what you believe, but i accept that you believe whatever it may be.

This is the problem with religion, i feel as if you are so consumed with the teachings, people forget that belief is universal and a gift which should be cherished, we should not debate which belief is correct because belief is centered on human beings, and human beings cannot be completely similar; we are dissimilar and this is what makes us function.

I respect the rights of those who believe in religion, even though i myself do not, I just really wished many others felt the same way
