When you sit down to enjoy a good meal with company, the last thing you want to do is openly mock them for praying.
It'd be more respectful to stuff on the table.
I don't, the comment was an over exaggeration on an action I may participate in given my current mindset. I understand respecting others right to express belief, but that doesn't mean I can't find something they take seriously humorous. The whole "I want to get offended just to be offended" thing is really getting out of hand. It's how tumblr feminists treat situations. No matter how minor the incident may be, they blow it out of proportion and state it's outlandish ridicule.
And if you actually think laughing at a dinner table for someone's beliefs being different is more disrespectful than stuffting on the table, you're perception on reality is so warped it's depressing.
Lalam has been itching for a fight ever since he pulled a post from /pol/ to try and start garbage here.
But I didn't start this. I made a harmless comment that was blown way out of proportion. I've been defending myself ever since.
i dont consider mocking to go hand in hand with it
that goes hand in hand with being a pretentious cunt
I don't really see any argument here, but okay. The only thing you've really done is come and insult me because I'm disagreeing with you. The "armchair philosopher" thing started in a previous topic. If you want to talk about mocking, you're the one actually doing it.
just because she "understood" it doesn't mean it was right
it's not referring to people using your grammar issues in their argument
It's saying you ignore points and jump right to grammar because that's all you can figure out what to do.
sure they're not immune from criticism and debate but that's not harmless laughter. if you have dinner with people who follow a religion hard enough to pray before a meal you shouldn't start laughing them "harmlessly", because it's not like they're going to be laughing. just stay silent and pause, damn. beliefs shouldn't be contested at a loving dinner table.
It is. I've had several religious friends who I've had a good laugh with because we could get into great detail about some of the more silly things religious beliefs offer. You guys keep assuming what you think will happen is what has to happen. Stop it, stop assuming you're the keeper of all social interactions and define exactly how dinner discussions will work.
