Let me clarify it for you: race and gender - we get those by birth, therefore critisizing or ridiculing someone for being born of certain color or sex is offensive and inappropriate. Religion, on the other hand, is a pure choice. I can argue or ridicule your choices to my heart's desire.

Most people are 'born into' a religion too. Your parents were Jewish/Hindu/Christian/Muslim/Satanists, so you were one.

Many have religion as a habit, never start thinking for themselves, and stick to it. A few even refuse to think even if they can, as it will conflict with their religion.

And a few are so dumb that they actually turn to a religion for their 'salvation', and start typing 'G-d' instead of 'God'.
I see your point. BTW, can you or someone esle explain this G-d vs God crap? Did I miss a memo from the Mods informing us not to mention that word again?

flyerwhatever refuses to write 'God' or 'Lord', as he claims that that is using his name in vain. Yet he does say 'G-d' and 'L-rd', therefor just making a different title, and therefor using the name in vain anyway. God and Lord are not names but descriptive titles.

'Thou shalt not have any other god before me' G-d != God

Therefore, whomever worships a fake god and is going to hell!!!!

Some people can't type God. It's considered taking his name in vain. I *believe* that this is popular amongst Jews.
