I think I can feel something...PsychoWarper said:This thread is gonna create the Chaos Gods so at least my religion will come true
Again. Popularity should be irrelevant, and please stop taking the Saitama example literally.ThisIsMySwagPack said:I don't think millions upon millions of people are using Saitama as their way of life, Christianity and Islam are just that, their way of life. Add in the fact that hostilities between followers of these two religions exist for more than a thousand years and the fact that those hostilities are currently increasing due to the situation in Europe and you really don't want to meddle in that.
I agree it's far better if we just removed mythology enterily from the site, no reason to have that double standard.The Wright Way said:This is a horrible idea. If the double stabdard bothers you, then we can just remove the other mythology pages, but we're not giving God an actual profile.
It is important for matter like theseAogiriKira said:Again. Popularity should be irrelevant, and please stop taking the Saitama example literally.
First: People have started wars over shiny rocks. Don't get too riled up here.The Wright Way said:Let's put this into perspective. There's a difference between something that gets assholes spouting death threats online and something that literally has started wars.
Secondly, I'm a Christian myself. How the flying **** do you expect me to justify this kind of thing with my beliefs?
Third, religions are REAL to the people who believe them. If we add all religions then we may as well add real life characters. To the people who worship these religions, there is no difference.
And if I were to bring someone who believes in one of the many mythologies we've tiered, they would probably feel the same way.The Wright Way said:Let's put this into perspective.

Can you not?EmperorRorepme said:
You already have religions that are currently worshipped, thus making it a double standard. If you really think so, then start nuking the mythology profiles we already have.Ricsi-viragosi said:Yeah no, committing blasphemy to millions for no reason and acting like you can just brush off the controversy that does is plain stupid, to not say a more offensive word.
I don't know what you think this place is, but vsbattles has to conform to Fandom, which itself bends to whatever is popular. Committing social suicide, as far as they are concerned, is the same as plain killing this wikia.
Not happening. You have several reasons (even besides this) to argue that other religions shouldn't be on here, but we are not adding religions currently worshipped.
In what way is this blasphemy, to examine a religious text and analyze what the powers that be in perform, objectively? That seems a cop-out.Ricsi-viragosi said:Yeah no, committing blasphemy to millions for no reason and acting like you can just brush off the controversy that does is plain stupid, to not say a more offensive word.

That's not an argument, Kep, and does not actually engage what the OP discussed.Kepekley23 said:Common sense exists. Shouldn't need to tell you why comparing this to long dead religions with pockets of followers in modern day is a false equivalence, but apparently I do.
The thing is not every religious person is like you. It'd be nice if no one got offended but that will never be the case until this planet blows up.KaitlynTheKitsune said:I agree with Kira. It's a ******* massive double standard. Oh, and this is from an actual Christian as well by the way. I believe in God, but I have no right to force my beliefs down the throats of others. As such, I have no right to get salty over people talking about my religion from a more index-based standpoint. It doesn't harm me, my faith, or anyone for that matter. But either way, saying that Greek Myth is somehow better is just dumb. I actually know a guy who worships the Greek gods. Guess what? Him worshipping something less popular doesn't invalidate the fact that it is his belief. Either we treat all religions the same, or we treat all religions the same. There should be no argument about that one.
Long dead religions and yet Norse Mythology has made a comeback, and Shintoism is moderately popular in it's own right?Kepekley23 said:Common sense exists.

Then let's nuke mythology and nix religious discussion altogether. I agree to thisThe Wright Way said:Yeah, I really don't see how you can think you can just ignore religious controversy when 9/11 is a thing that happened and that religious persecution is still happening world wide.
I'm fine with nuking mythology, but the alternative is just idiotic.
Which is why I'm advocating for nuking mythology pages. Younand I recognize the fact that we have no right to force anyone to believe anything, but sadly lots of people worldwide don't.KaitlynTheKitsune said:I agree with Kira.

I truly dislike how this is just patently saying 'Yeah your religious beliefs aren't correct enough to warrant being a protected class' unironically. As in, that's the wiki's apparent stance on it.Promestein said:I dislike bothering to tier any religion to begin with because they're so divisive on top of having so many varying interpretations that making any page that covers it all is probably impossible.
There's a big difference between widely practiced religions like the Abrahamic ones and some pagans going back to Norse stuff, anyways, and acting like there isn't is just being intentionally ignorant.
Pretty reasonable i'd say. But regardless I know we aren't going to add Jesus to the wiki, but thats what creates the double standard in the first place. I'm all for removing mythological profiles.KaitlynTheKitsune said:I agree with Kira. It's a ******* massive double standard. Oh, and this is from an actual Christian as well by the way.
