The first season of the Total Drama series will always be the best.

I'd go so far as to say it was the only good one.

I think when my fellow black ladies put bright colorful dye or braids or weave in their hair it does not look ok and it just looks really really bad.

not everyone can pull that off ladies.

It's not really that I have a thing against Christians, but as a whole, I've literally never met a collective of more close-minded oppressive people. I guess I have more of an issue with the intolerant "gay people are sinners" "anti-choice" etc. ones, which honestly seem to make up a good portion of the religion. (AKA, if you're Christian and you're a legit nice person, I don't mean you.) Plus I really just can't stand people pushing their religion onto others, and in my experience, they're the ones who do it the most.

Most of the Christians I've met have been perfectly nice people, and I accept there are a good few subjects we can't see eye-to-eye on (look at their debate against Bill Nye on creationism for a recent example), but what tends to get to me in terms of organized religion, is when they insist they're doing good--and legitimately believe so--when their actions... aren't always.  Granted, those tend to be the extremists of the group and it's unfair to base one's perception of religion off of them, but still.  When you have Christians who stop taking medication, or don't seek it at all, because they think god will save them--and they die because of it--I wish they'd rethink a few things.

I have seen a heck of a lot of atheists making fun of christians and pushing their beliefs on them ( Not all by the way by any means ).I have also seen many non christians who hate homosexuality. I have known many christians who practice what i do - to love all and that means hating no one and treating everyone equally and with love.For some reason this site has a lot of hate on christians and it's pretty hypocritical when a lot of these same people preach about stereotyping and generalizing ( not saying you in particular) . I'm tired of the hate . People don't have to believe what I do , but they don't have to make assumptions about me bc i'm a christian based off some non-christianlike behavior of people claiming to be christians. For the record our God teaches to love everyone and to treat everyone with love and respect and that we have no right to judge anyones lives. True christians know this is what's truly taught. Just putting this out there.

True, and I don't mean to say all Christians, but a lot of the active ones in my experience tend to be particularly...well, yeah, all the stuff I said before.

I should probably revise my original statement a little: I really don't mean all Christians. But I live near DC, and this is where all of the massive Christian anti-choice and anti-gay marriage rallies happen, so I can't say a lot of the ones near me are very likable. I know not all Christians are like that and there are some pretty shitty atheists out there too, but my issue is that there's a whole belief system (and there are other ones too that do this, but America is predominantly Christian, so I see Christian intolerance more often than any other religion) that some people interpret to mean they can stop other people from marrying or choosing what to do with their own body

There are radicals of all different religions or non-religions who make everyone else look bad and I don't like them much either bc they make everyone look bad . Also for the record , people also get crapped on and even murdered all over the world for being christian simple bc of their beliefs. It's pretty disgusting that humanity can kill for or force their beliefs on others. People should be free to believe what they want and others shouldn't dictate others lives period. It's actually none of our business to tell others how to live .

Its not surprise Christianity makes the most of the religion found in U.S.

As someone who goes to a Catholic School I rarely see Catholics/Christianity enforcing their beliefs on someone else, not even the brothers force me. Though I've seen homophobic religious people I've also seen religious people who support gays.

But that just proves, its not the religious part, its really just their opinion. They can use the bible to back it up but that doesn't mean it is the religions fault just be people who happen to have the need to defend their beliefs by using a higher power.

 

So in truth, if you see a christian claiming that they hate gays and don't want them to get married because the bible said so, it might be because they just hate gays and are using the bible as an excuse by overstating the mistranslated verse. After all, God loves his children.

Basically don't talk shit on peoples believes in general. Unless they are Jehovas Witness. firetruck those guys.

Indeed! I'm quota but i'll like this when i get more back!!

[Queen Tery 4,591]

I definitely have seen a lot of self-righteous christians AND atheists. Most people tend to be stern and forceful in the things they believe in. I have been and I still continue to do so. It's not exactly a bad thing, depending on the situation, but it can turn someone into quite the hypocrite. I mean, take homosexuality for instance(considering everyone wants to bring that into the religion talk). The people who are all for homosexuality and disagree with anti-gay statements tend to be hateful toward the people who disagree with homosexuality. While the people who disagree with homosexuality tend to mock people who are homosexual or who support homosexuality. Hatred breads more hate. It's not easy to give trust and give love. When someone pisses you off and disagrees with you, instinctively we want to one up them and prove we're "right." Another thing is, you tend to notice hatred from one side when you lean more toward or support the other. I see more hatred from christians when it comes to a lot of argument, because I disagree with what they're saying. But then other times, I'll sit back and hear something from the other side that I lean more toward and I'll go "Wow... did they really just say that? They're as bad as them." People have their reasons for believing what they believe. No matter how well you think you know someone, there's always something you don't know or understand.

That hate's always been around, and sadly people don't want to change that

 

I'm an atheist myself, and I don't go around bashing other people's beliefs.

 

My best friend is gay, and he doesn't care if he's bashed, he's happy with what he's doing.

I wish more people were like you and me on this subject since i don't bash either. I believe in free will. Less hate in this world is something great to strive for .

That's a pretty popular opinion actually. And sales would agree with you.

I TOTALLY agree with this one .

 

People are free to believe in whatever they want ,of course, without forcing other people to do so as well. Personally , I am a Christian, I don't judge people about their beliefs and ,fortunately, noone criticises me or forces me to do stuff .

Ah, I haven't paid much attention to this-gen yet since at the moment I'm dead broke. x . x

 

But I do remember the 360 demolishing the PS3 in sales for 32 months straight, with Xbox fanboys everywhere you turned your head, so I just assumed things didn't change. lol

PlayStation 3 picked up, it's pretty equal at the moment. 

 

PlayStation 4 is dominating at the moment.
