How tolerant are you of other religions?

Obligatory blog post: [spoiler]I was in the car with my mother the other day, and we had somehow found ourselves on the topic of God. I don't recall all the specifics, but long story short, at one point she said "Atheists shouldn't even exist, it's just wrong." When I didn't immediately agree with her and instead defended an Atheist's right to simply form their own beliefs, she semi-freaked out and asked if I was Atheist in the most judgmental tone :/ I replied no, but I am a closet Atheist IRL.[/spoiler] I consider myself to be pretty tolerant of other people's beliefs ^^ After all, they're just that; beliefs. There's really no right or wrong answer, it's all a matter of opinion. I find it really saddening that there exist extremists within some religions, though, and it's kind of hard to be tolerant of those people specifically. As long as you're tolerant of me, I'll be tolerant of you :P

  • I'm tolerant, but only if the people in question afford other people the same tolerance. Example: my parents are Christian, I'm atheist. Normally this wouldn't bother me, but last month my mother said I 'should be Christian' and then implied Christianity has the monopoly on the moral compass. That sort of thing is one of the fastest ways to piss me off.
