I was stunned to silence when I read this...

I like it when people use the word "gay" in any context other than a homosexual one - it only proves that they have the maturity of a five year old, as if their obsession with shooters didn't already do a good job of pointing that out. It's also pretty amusing that he pointed out Skyrim considering the fact that, y'know, it's set in the bloody medival era and doesn't even have muskets, let alone generic modern firearms.

But just for fun, let's play around with his logic a bit.

game - gun = gay
game + gun = -gay
game + gun + Arem = ???

But that was written by a religious follower :U

Might want to be a bit more careful with your topic titles if you're trying to avoid hypocrisy there

The point he was trying to make is that you CAN be religious and still love the people who are different around you in whatever aspect, and gives several examples using mainstream religions like Christianity and Islam to prove it.

Basically, don't judge.

Yes, which is why writing "A really good article about the hypocrisy of religious followers" in the title doesn't really mesh very well with the message the article is presenting
Because "religious followers" is an incredibly broad category

I wouldn't normally be this pedantic but it's just something you can't do in the same topic as you post that article in

Oh, I see what you're talking about. Yeah, sorry about the horrible wording. I meant something else entirely, but it didn't come across that way.

Allow me to fix that.
