image Unkown. First off if you think you are not being offensive by what you are doing, you are clearly mistaken. You are clearly using your avatar as a way to make fun of something that many people hold high in regard as holy and sacred. You say your avatar is not offensive but looking at this screenshot of your most recent blogs (http://prntscr.com/2udnft ) you called religion a joke, clearly using your avatar as a platform to say that religion is not a serious thing and that is laugh worthy. Also, the fact that you are using a statement saying that the Bible is offensive cause it uses Jesus's name makes you look not only stupid but a jerk. The Bible uses his name in reverence and praise, while your avatar is intended to make people laugh at something that is of the utmost seriousness. Don't act like you're innocent because you are not, you know that there is a malicious intent underlying in why you uploaded this design. If you think my religion is funny, so be it, but don't publicate such an opinion as it is clearly inflammatory and offensive to others.

to be honest there are people who use religion as an excuse to discriminate on certain people (gays) bc they claim it's a sin or whatever
as a gay person i learned to ignore the hate/judgements coming from some religious people who are against homosexuality
as a religious person you should learn to ignore the hate as well and deal with the fact that not everyone is religious or respects your religion
i don't think it's that big of a deal if he mocks religion because let's be honest religion isn't perfect and religious people aren't either
if people find his avi offensive they should just ignore him and his blogs
not taking sides, i just think this argument is pointless

MichelleObama This logic applies to everyone who uses the Jesus tag to make fun of Christianity.

Disappointed by some of the comments saying it's okay to make fun of religion.

Being gay may not be a choice, but wanting equal rights and fighting for it is a choice.
Do those people who announce their beliefs deserve abuse because they may not have popular beliefs?

Yoshitomi actually i'd say that fighting for equal rights is something we shouldn't have to do because it's a right as a human being as opposed to a choice.
Sent by SPARTANJACK,Feb 21, 2014
I feel like no one's getting the take-home message from your blog at all =s although idrc too much about his avatar, I agree that it's just something disrespectful to do. I mean there's a line between having fun and actually being completely disrespectful to people who often internalize religion and do hold it dear to them. I think the issue with a lot of Tengagers is that they literally care about nothing and no one - so they can't see when they're having fun at the true expense of others.

Also, I don't think religion starts war spartanjack: people do. It clearly states in most religious texts that we shouldn't make war with anyone and that we should treat everyone well, etc. I know in Islamic texts it literally says that Muslims should get along with Jews and Christians. Just because people use religion as an excuse doesn't mean religion itself is faulty. I think people just take things too literally and don't realize that the rules set were meant for back when the books were created, and that we should have brains to actually mold everything based on how society is now. Basically, wars happen because everyone's stupid woo.
Sent by Inkread,Feb 21, 2014
He's entitled to his own opinion on religion, but that's never an excuse to mock :/ I dislike some aspects of it myself because of how it can negatively alienate certain groups of people, but still, it's better to live and let live. I find some religious theories fascinating.

If being religious gives you happiness and joy, it's the right of nobody to mock that, whatever they think.

Respect for michelleobama for posting this blog.

My take on this:

Look at the comments section itself, there is already a clear indication that some people take religion seriously and some don't. True, you have freedom of speech but there's also freedom to believe.

It is also true that "some", as Etienne would call it, religious people can be "harsh" to the gay community.  It is true that some of these people who are hateful and some gays learned to ignore it.

But what did you actually feel when they were bashing you? Were you hurt? Were you emotionally attacked because of something you believe you are, you know you are and you live you are? If something you believe in, or you live with, or you are, is MOCKED by somewhat a simple joke : would you just ignore it initially? wouldn't you feel hurt?

Now as a religious person, and someone mocked you, wouldn't you feel the same hurt?

Thus, because of this hurt, NO ONE IS ENTITLED TO MOCK one's lifestyle, belief and/or religion. If you are gay, so what? If you are doing good, happy and living in peace, who are we to judge you? As long as you are not spreading hate and negativity, go ahead live your life.

:)

Spread love, not hate. and the avatar is neither classy nor civilized (you are gradually scooping to the level of those preachy gay-bashing Christians and if you think they are hurtful, please reflect on that)

I am bisexual and I have a church group that accepts me for who I am. I believe in faith and in God but I live in a lifestyle that is deemed sinful by a lot of other churches. In my church group, I learned to understand the source of that hate and it's a very miserable thing.

SpartanJack A world where everyone has equal rights and entitlements will never exist.
You can't give a dangerous job to someone who someone with a disability which doesn't allow them to do that job, no matter how much they want the job.
Is that unfair?
             
But if you demand respect, you should give respect out.
And what's the point of wanting respect and wanting to be treated equally if you don't treat others the same way?
     
It's okay to mock them because "religion isn't perfect and religious people aren't either".
Not every gay person is a saint either?
But are we seriously going to judge an entire group of people based on the a-holes?
           
Not every war has been caused by religion specifically. Wars have been caused by lack of tolerance towards fellow human beings, whether it be political beliefs, physical features or religion.

Now that is just stubborn and immature. You have formed opinions and judgments but haven't given yourself room to grow as a human being and an individual. Sure, you may be strong in your beliefs and may think it will be impossible to change those views, but I have learned, especially with knowledgeable Tengaged users, that it is alright to alter what you believe because that is finding out more about yourself and also gaining insight into other peoples' perspectives. It is just idiotic to place blame on an entire group when there are many people in the group that are the nicest and most genuine people you'll ever meet.
