People have been saying things such as 'religion should die.'
I’m not in to religion but things like that shouldn’t be allowed. I think something needs to be done now. I don’t think bans are needed but things like this a very disturbing. I don’t know how things like this can be allowed. I’m pretty much a full atheist but this is ridiculous.
Bashing religion is one thing but saying it should die is too far.
I may be overreacting but something needs to be done.

I think you are overreacting.

Religion is a concept, not a person or persons.

It is a opinion and as such is allowed.

You may not agree on it, but there is no breach at all.

So then I can say that we need to do away with atheism and anybody who has anything to do with it?

Unfortunately Firewolf is right. It doesn’t hit as discrimination until they start flaming a person for their religion.

"Everyone who has a religion should shut up and die!"

or...

“I’ll kill all you Christians!"

et cetera

That is unfortunate. Sad prejudice is allowed.

Well, as I see it...

Saying that “religion” should die isn’t really discrimination...

Saying that the religious should die, that is.

I would say they should get a warning, a religion is a persons culture and people are going to get very serious about it if someone says something stupid like that, it’s only going to lead to someone to getting banned, I’d say take a precaution and mod the persons post

ya like i said before, a religion is a persons beleif, it should get at least a warning the first time, or maybe a 24 hour ban, or something, people take religion very serious.

A warning and then a ban sounds good if it happens again.

If what happens again? OP is definitely over reacting. Remember that this is the same guy who thinks I’m trying to make some kind of holocaust, he’s obviously paranoid.

If you’ve seen his arguments then you would know that he is the one throwing low blows and insults. That’s basically all he does.

We all know you aren’t supporting a holocaust but your discriminatory comments show you are.
