it's like people who obsess over star trek or role playing games. all that time you could have spent learning stuff instead of fixating on one random story or subculture. i don't get it, and was hoping for a deeper insight than you just being defensive. sorry for worrying your fucking sensibilities.
Knowing and believing are 2 different things. Knowing about Lent and believing in Catholicism, or Protestant Christianity are different.

I cannot understand why people who do not follow a religion vehemently attack the belief of others on these forums. Is it because our two hosts have decided to be agnostic or atheist?

As others have pointed out in this and other threads, Chemda does not know the detail of other religions but often criticises them for their ridiculousness. Strangely she still gets defensive over Judeism from time to time.

Lessons that should be learned from the forums: Displaying your knowledge to the ignorant is not appreciated by the ignorant. Displaying your ignorance with pride just makes you look pathetic.
