While I myself am not a follower of any particular religion, I do respect others choice of religion. This assuming they don't try to push it down my throat. I don't try to press my opinion on you, therefore you should give me the same respect. That being said, the other night while a few of my friends an I were playing some Gears 3, we ran into what can only be describes as the racial equivalent of a KKK member. This guy was equating white people with the devil. He in simple words stated that his was the master race and all others were nothing but the devil. He very clearly stated he did not believe in equality, that no one was in anyway equal. He said things like white people will be slaves after the end has come. Now my friend Too Lo, a very well spoken and educated individual, tried to have a rational conversation/debate with this religious nutcase. This guy basically discounted anything that was not in the Bible. With of course his interpretations. This guy was getting schooled on history by Too Lo and was told by the guy that he needed to learn his history. Since anything outside of the good book is wrong. I just don't understand how people get to that extreme with religion still in this day and age. The thing that gets me is really just the fact that this guy was playing Gears of War... Seems like something that kind if person would consider evil. Especially since it was created by a "White Devil".
