about this story
photo 1: Everyone is different and has different opinions and beliefs. That is what makes us human and there is nothing wrong with that. When it comes to religion, the topic of belief can get a little controversial. No matter what you believe when it comes to religion, that belief should not become law.
photo 2: We are taught at a very young age that everyone is different but that truth is something that gets ignored when we get older. Also, who we grow up with will affect our beliefs. For example, I am an atheist just like my dad. I was not taught to specifically not believe in God but I was not encouraged to believe in him either. I was able to make that decision. This is something that everyone should have the right to have. They should have a choice.
photo 3: Sadly, there is a big crack in how we do things as a society and this ability to choose is not always the case. Everyone thinks that they are right all of the time which leads to people forcing their beliefs onto others. There is nothing wrong with thinking you are right but it becomes toxic when you force it on others. I believe that God does not exist and I think I am right. That does not mean I get to force you to not believe in him just because that is what I think. It can be broken down into a simple example. I love the color green. You can hate green. One is not more valid than the other. If I want to wear green, I will. If you don't then you won't. As long as it doesn't hurt yourself or anyone else, believe what you want to but to put religion into laws is wrong because the law is for everyone and religion/belief is not.
photo 4: I know that there are hundreds of religions and while they can all be beautiful in their own way, they should not be forced on anyone. If someone is allergic to a certain flower, you can not just give it to them because it is your favorite flower. You need to be respectful of everyone and everyone should have the right to believe whatever they want.
photo 5: Some may believe that they are trying to help and they know what is best for you but that is up to you and you alone. Just because someone opens the door, does not mean you need to walk inside. If you want to go inside, you should, but if not, you shouldn't. It is as simple as that.
