@prinz7 It is not: it is a remnant of the middle ages. Still, I am Catholic, but because I believe in philosophy. There is a difference between believing with your heart and believing with your head. It is better to be evil than dangerous.

@prinz7 My point however, is that we should not value opinions, but focus on content. I believe we are celebrating the wrong things in society. Not everyone's opinion matters.

@prinz7 Let me be clear; you cannot forbid religion or religious beliefs, and so if we want to be an inclusive society, even extremist views must be given a place in a civilization. We, so to speak, tolerate these views, but we do not esteem these views.
