Fun fact:
Not everybody's reason for being offended has anything to do with Christianity or religion. Try again.
Then why don't you explain to us what other things it's about.
I've been posting about it in other threads, so this post is really just going to be a copy-pasta of other things I've written.
This isn't about Christianity or religion. It's about making fun of people's beliefs. Like "LOL, there are people that are so crazy that they think the world is going to end! ROFL!"
It's not . . . funny. People being with their families, eating what they feel is going to be their last meal . . . that's not funny. It's not something to make fun of. People quitting their jobs, giving away their money and their house . . . that's not funny. The belief might be ridiculous, but it's not something to mock.
It just strips people of their dignity. It's belittling.
At least with Southpark and Family Guy and shows like that, they mock anything and everything. But with Gaia, it's not like that. Gaia will ban you for trolling and making fun of others. I got a warning for saying "they're being dicks," 'they' being an anonymous group of people.
If someone went around posting a picture of a Raptor Jesus in a Religion/Morality thread, they'd be warned for spamming and for trolling. For posting material meant to annoy, bother, or irritate people.
Why is it that Gaia doesn't have any religious symbols - no images of Christ, or Buddha, no star of David or Pillars of Faith, but it's perfectly find to post memes mocking what beliefs they prescribe as being silly? If we're going to mock anyone who believes in the Rapture, then why not mock anyone who believes in Jesus or Buddha or God? These beliefs can all be seen as irrational or crazy or strange. By making fun of some and not others, you're saying that some are stupid and others are not. Some are worth showing dignity and respect to, others are not.
Apparently, people who believed that they were going to leave this earth yesterday are not worth showing respect to.
