that wasn't my point, my point was:

nd I'm still not seeing what I said incorrectly considering you ended your post with pretty much the same view as me.

that this was false.
it was not the same view at all.
also, as to picking apart sentences: they are what contain your ideas.. it is quite important to understand them.

people change beliefs. But, at the time that they have one, it isn't something they feel like they can control..and they don't deserve to be hated on because of that, especially when it isn't bothering anyone else.

I control my beliefs by making the choices I do. I accept that my understanding and views of the world come from my experience and thus placement in the system. by doing so I can influence it by making choices and creating possibility for new ideas.
You dont just 'have a belief' at a certain period in your life, it's an ever changing thing with maybe some bigger leaps here and there. This also goes for Catholics, buddhists.. anyone really. the thing is, do you open yourself up and actively reach for ideas that are quite different from what you are used to (you don't have to accept them as better/true) or do you stick within the circle you're used to and develop in there: willfullingly blocking possible betterment of yourself and the influence you may have on your suroundings.
If people support something that is considered harmful by others, people may choose to dislike them for it.
the 'I'm not harming anyone by my beliefs' concept is false when it controls who you support, who you fund, for whom you vote and who you don't do these things for or even are biased against. This is most likely to occur when your belief falls within or contains an organized religion that has invested in and seeks to affect the material world where everyone resides.
When you keep to your spiritual world, nothing can come of it. but hardly anyone does that 100%, not even monks, so take responsibility for your beliefs. I think it makes them more your own or proves that they really arent your beliefs but just something you like the sound of.
I've heard you voice your opinion on quite a few worldy events that seem to come from your way of seeing the world/belief system. which is good, stand up for it, act on it, but don't deny that it has an effect on others. I even presume you want it to; then also except others may dislike you for it.
People of a certain color shouldnt have to stand for their being of that color, people who belief something should stand for their beliefs.
I dont have spellcheck on this shitty ass pc and I g2g so sorry if some shit is wrong/fucked.
