The Antichristian Phenomenon

I am especially annoyed when people think they should “respect” a persons religious beliefs. I will not go into much depth because people like Richard Dawkins have already elaborated enough on this issue. However I recently saw another example that shows why doing that is so wrong.

Iran has passed a bill that invokes the death penalty for porn stars

Let me make this a bit more clear: People have taken it in their hands to murder other people for something that they did to themselves (In this case, the horrible crime is to have sex in front of a camera or be in any part an accomplish to it).

How is that for respect for you then? I wonder if there were more islamists in the first world, would they require we respect their right to kill porn producers because they “Corrupt the world”?

It is especially worrying that they will kill people with whom they do not agree in moral issues. They will kill people because living their life, without hurting anyone, is not the way that some guys, hundreads or thousands of years ago, heard some voices in their head say it should be.

No, I will not respect a religion who decrees such things. Do not even try to tell me that they are misguided and that is ” not what that religion of love is about”.

And I’m certain that the little fucks who pass these laws, don’t waste any time breaking them when no one is looking. Same way that the Brothel industry was booming in the Victorian age (yes, another great example of good solid Christian morality). In fascistic environments, like all monotheistic religion and theocratic nations are, the rules are only for the common people. Not for the rulers.

If you want respect for your religion of choice, I want to see you right now, on the fucking street, protesting against the things, people who claim to represent you are doing to the rest of us. If you want me to respect your “Religion of love”, you’d better be the biggest activist against all that and not sit at your home, ignoring it and let the rest do the dirty work.

If you want respect, I want you to be fighting ti preserve the rights your religion is trying to take away from everyone else.
