Example: my aethiest friend had scheduled his birthday party for Dec 2nd, which was a sunday. He had to work that afternoon and evening, so he scheduled it for the morning. Well, I had church sunday morning and do my very best not to miss it. Telling him this, didn't go over well. Yet I found out later that he was totally fine with some jewish friends of ours giving him the same reason. I don't get it. I totally agree with people believing in their own religion as the Bible does say not to force our way on others. I mean how often did the people in the Bible find others forcing their religions or interpretations of the same religion on them? My question is: Why can't I have as much respect for what I believe as those of other religions? Any thoughts would be greately appreciated.
