I wish this awakening also extends to where non religious people stop being discriminated or prejudiced against
Actually All lives matter, the problem is that the UNEVOLVED Right always misuses that!
It will eventually happen. It's just taking so long.
It's the christians that get whispered about where I live. They are not seen as 'fun'.
It depends on which country you are living in. Seems to be a big problem in the US. I have not come across it anywhere else in the world that I have traveled to, not even in Islamic countries.
I was in fiji 2 ywars ago and made the mistake of telling one of the waiters at the island hotel I was staying at that I was an atheist, because I was invited to their church service on the sunday. He relabelled me as an antichrist despite me protesting it wasn't the same and suddenly the service there changed. Fortunately I was due to leave a couple of days later.
To discriminate and prejudge is human. Elimination is impossible.
SO? We shouldn't do what we can to dismantle what we can?
@beenthere If you have to ask what needs to be changed, you are demonstrating your clueless White Privilege. And as BB King responded when asked what is the blues, "If you have to ask, you'll never know!" Your White Privilege depends on your continuing to Not Want to Know! It was your original diversionary and irrelevant comment about "human nature" that started this. If you want to continue this dialogue honestly, simply acknowledge its lack of pertinence to the original issue of the protests.
There is a time and place for that cause, but I do not think this is it. The racial injustice that is being protested against is much much larger. That message needs to be concise, focused and most of all heard.
I agree
