People who display their religion on their sleeve bug me for some reason. Dedication to your faith is great, but I still think it's tacky unless it's a tenet of the religion.

It may be annoying to a few people, but it has to be allowed to ensure freedom of speech. Banning of this in places like France is basically oppression.

I'm intolerant because I don't like something?

 

OK fine.

 

Are people NOT "intolerant" if they don't like gays, jews, whops, muslims, etc then? The word that got me was "snobbery". I never considered that declaring some affiliation could be snobbery.

I said I don't like a thing, not a people. I like Christians, but I don't like the shirts that say things like "HE WHO HAS THE SON HAS LIFE.". It's amazing to me that you're equating my DISLIKE of a type of garment with HATRED of a group. Also, I have no problem showing religious affiliation of some kind or another but when a shirt says what that says it just rubs me the wrong way and it seems like you're putting down other religions. Just like I said earlier that I don't like asparagus doesn't mean I hate all vegetables. It'd be like me saying you hate America because you dislike stances American liberals take.

 

Also, Chewbacca, nowhere did I say that the shirts shouldn't exist. All I said is that I didn't like them and they come across as snobish to me. It's probably like how Red Sox fans felt after they saw Marlins fans walking around with World Series Champions t-shirts in 1997 and 2003. They don't like it, but they don't think they should be banned or something.

 

That said, I guess I should come out and say it. I don't like the way the new $20 bills look so I must be some Communist-sympathizing anti-American freak.

You guys need to lighten up. I've got the perfect song to do that:

 

I don't care if it rains or freezes

As long as I got my plastic Jesus

Melted on the dashboard of my car...

I completely agree.
