What a completely ignorant statement. Just because people posses negative views of religion doesn't mean "no one wants to hear about". How about actually disproving and arguing with good faith instead of posting such a meaningless ignorant comment?
Your kinda proving his point by insulting him immediately haha.
critiquing is 1 thing and insulting is another haha
I don't agree. It does come across slightly insulting. A better critique could be like..
I don't think people having negative views of religion means no one will is willing to have a proper discussion about it. Have you tried discussing your ideas in a way that...
Because I go on Lemmy for the news and for uplifting discussion. Many of my beliefs, such as kindness, compassion, and personal growth do not cause a stir here. However if I discuss some of my other beliefs, I will generally be down voted because the overwhelming majority of users here disagree with me. My goal when using Lemmy is to have constructive conversation, not contention. I want everyone to feel welcome, and in return, I want to feel welcome myself. Hope this gives you some context for my earlier "ignorant statement." Happy Thanksgiving!
