SO MUCH FOR TOLERANCE

OK, I'm assuming many of you have seen these two posts: the person who wants to play Destiny with others within the LGBT/Furry community, and the person who wants to play with Christians. Now let me say first this is not going to devolve into a theological or argument about morals. When the guy(or girl) who made his post about playing with other Christians, his thread was torn apart. He, his beliefs, and anyone who sided with him were discriminated and made fun of. He was told countless times that he was wrong and stupid for believing what he did. Now today there was another post made by a guy(or girl) wishing to play with with those in the LGBT and "furry" communities. This thread, thankfully, was met with nothing but kind words and willingness to play, even by those who were not LGBT. Why is there a difference between the responses to the Christian post and the LGBT/furry post? Neither was condemning those who didn't think like them, simply asking to play with like-minded people of similar backgrounds, yet one was discriminated and made fun of. Why is this OK? We supposedly live in this generation of tolerance, where everyone's beliefs and lifestyles are to be accepted, so why the intolerance? Everybody should remember the Golden rule, treat others the way you want to be treated. Ok guys, it's getting a little out of hand. This is not a topic about religion, it is about respecting each other. Remember, just be nice to people. It doesn't cost anything. You're not required to agree with them, but do not belittle or discriminate against them for thinking differently than you do.

    No. Stop it! Those of you defending Christianity and those against it, really need to stop telling people they are wrong for living a certain way and believing or not. Doing so goes against everything thing Jesus tried to pass onto us. I'm not Christian and I don't attend church but...even I know that [b][u]everyone[/u][/b] should turn the other cheek! Alot of people are too busy caught up in others views on their beliefs. When it should not matter who says what as long as you have your Faith in whatever you choose to believe. For it is my strong opinion that regardless of beliefs we should [b][i][u]all[/u][/i][/b] be treating each other with simple kindness and respect! So please can we stop with these posts both for and against all religions and sexual preferences. Im sure that Christianity gamer and the furry lover are still gonna have their beliefs and no amount of "hey stop persecuting this guy" or "hey fugg that guy for having different belief" is gonna change the world as whole. So all in all let's please keep these forums about Destiny and how much you enjoy it. And remember being the bigger person says alot more about you than winning an argument on the interwebs or irl.
