Re: The J-Word (A Thread That Shall Explode in Wank, Just Watch)

I don't know, I grew up around a lot of Jewish people who don't even follow those practices, so those sorts of debates only ever came up rarely. We did have a Orthodox Jewish community but they largely segregated themselves from the rest of the Jewish community.

But I think most religions have some ridiculous practices that need to be ditched, for some people that means taking that certain practice out of the religion, for me it means not following religion at all whatsoever. These are just my personal morals, but if I'm not good with the rules of something, I'm not following it.

But these sort of critiques always come up with and practices people don't agree with, it can sometimes be hard to have a dividing line between being respectful of someone's religion and seeing something that religion is doing as wrong. After all if someone came up to your door and said, "I get to kill you because of my faith." you would probably have some objections. And while you may say to yourself, "Yeah but that's an extreme example." remember that historically it's really not all that extreme. We NEED to question our religious practices for fear of giving a corrupt institution too much power.
