RELIGION: WHY DO PEOPLE GET INSULTED WHEN CHALLENGED ABOUT THEIR RELIGION?


[+] serious ballot by wideheadofknowledge
ACTIVE Mon Nov 06, 06 - Sun May 09, 10

What with Richard Dawkins riding high with his fantastic book "The God Delusion" I thought it was time to take a break from showing up 9-11 conspiracy nerds and focusing back on my favourite topic of old....

So why do people take offense at criticisms of their religion?

They have too much invested in their beliefs to consider they might be wrong
knee-jerk reaction
Innate hostility
Not understanding it well enough to defend it.
Defense of personal reality
Their own belief is not that strong, so they fear criticism
All of the above.
Because they consider their religion to be true.
Because what gives anyone the right to tell someone else what to believe?
becuase religion gives you hope
Is anyone 'supposed to' 'criticize' or 'challenge' other people's beliefs?!
Because religion's critics often make damn good points, and that leads to resentment.
