I think religion should be a private thing between a person and their god, not something to be flaunted in public. In this day and age, it is absolutely ridiculous for Muslim women to wear traditional dress, calling attention to themselves and their religion. It makes no sense that Jews wear that stupid little cap.
Why do these people need everyone to know their beliefs? They won't convert me and they do turn me off. I do not care what religion you are.
I guess there's not too much one can do about their color, unless they are completely insane like Michael Jackson, but one certainly doesn't have to talk ghetto and wear absurd hip hop clothes.
Sadly, humans are flawed; they judge on sight, not upon substance, so it's how best to get by, with as little friction as possible.
Has it occurred to you that the Jews are not wearing their little cap for you, and that the Muslim women don't cover up their bodies and faces for you? It's about them and their beliefs. The fact that you don't like it is irrelevant to their beliefs. Though they probably wonder why you dress like you do. Surely you could afford something nicer!
I never said I didn't like it, or particularly cared. All I said was I don't understand why they have to be so blatant and force everyone else to know their beliefs. Religion isn't something that needs to be advertised. It is a belief between a person and their deity. I doubt anyone would become a believer because the silly little cap looks so stylish or because some woman wants to wear the Muslim dress.
I couldn't give a crap if a guy is gay, either, but I have never understood why some of them must flaunt it in public. Swish gays just look and act silly, not cool.
Well your opinion is your opinion, and that's fine, but I was mainly just trying to say that they are not trying to convert people with their dress. Just as you like to keep your belief of lack thereof private, their beliefs dictate they must wear certain clothing. Live and let live. To you the gay guy looks ridiculous, to others, not so much.
Honestly? Do you know ANYBODY that thinks the swish, flamboyant gay guys are not silly looking?
The stereotype is almost always a comedic character in the film industry, and that industry closely mimics America's present sentiment, don't you think?
Again, I couldn't care less about a person's sexual orientation or religion. I just don't need for them to show me what they believe.
"I just don't need for them to show me what they belive."
That brings it back around to what I was trying to say initially, from their perspective what YOU need isn't their motivation.
Michael Jackson had a type of skin cancer, so there was a reason as to why he changed his skin tone. It was a medical procedure.
"Stupid little cap."
It's called a Yarmulke, or a Kippa. Muslim women dress the way they dress, and Jewish men wear the Yarmulke because it is a choice of theirs. They are proud of their religion, they don't do it for you.
I never said flaunting it. Simply stating you are means you are open not flaunting. Its not saying "Hey I am christian, Muslim,Buddhist". Its if they ask you tell them what you are.
Is it normal to hide your race, and beliefs for the sake of peace?
