Quote by: Technosoul  That is an important point, it is possible that an athiest and a theist could be involved in lots of activities within society and never suspect their differences if the "sensitive" topics did not come up. They would all just be people working and living side by side with other people. |
I have seen this to be true many times.
Many of my friends who are Christians work at the same places everyone else does and tend to frequent the same social places as everyone else . Often a persons stance on belief systems is not known until it is randomly brought up in conversation weeks if not months later.
I also don't understand how a belief system that is 2000 years old holds back potential by virtue of its age.
I also would like to think that the current cultural practices of Christianity are not equally bad as the cultural practices being used in Islamic countries today.
