I am interested in religion in purely an academic sense, but people get offended when I ask questions about their religion. It is very frustrating. I’m not judging. I’m not trying to disprove anything. I genuinely just want to understand.

Because religion is one of those sensitive topics to avoid. Some people prefer to not discuss it at all and avoid any potential conflict

I’m a christian, and if youre interested in that religion, feel free to ask me questions! (Keep in mind I’m pretty young and took time away from the faith and recently got back to it) :)

i would still call myself a Christian because i do believe in Christ but i also have deep issues with some of the things i was taught growing up and i believe passionately in the importance of rationality and intellectual curiosity. i really don’t think you will offend me because even if you were gonna judge me i could honestly understand how a person could feel judgy of Christians rn. my DMs are open if you think you wanna ask questions.

Asking questions is never something to be ashamed of or to be offended by, as long as you are doing so respectfully and sincerely (which I’m assuming you are) and if someone gets upset with you, chances are they didn’t have the answer
