pretty fucked up how christian beliefs are referred to as “stories” but indigenous beliefs are referred to as “mythology”

im gonna start calling it all “christian mythology” now and watch people literally melt in fury

I call it Christian mythology and the amount of angry looks I get from old people in public when I say it is honestly baffling and hysterical.

how come everyone here saw a post clearly meant to point out how people treat indigenous peoples’ religions with disrespect and decided to make it all about pissing off Christians?

the point of this post was very obviously “treat indigenous peoples better” but you have chosen to read it as “treat Christian religious beliefs more poorly”. i wanted people to reflect on the language they use to talk about the religions of indigenous peoples but that intent was apparently lost on many people.

i want you to ask yourself why you are more willing to make the effort to treat certain people unkindly than to treat other people with respect.
