    I've had dinner in the home of Muslim acquaintances and when they didn't serve me alcohol I didn't think of telling them to go fuck themselves because I don't believe that it's wrong for them to think that their religious beliefs apply to me as well. As a matter fact, I appreciate that they consider me their equal.

    • they don't consider you equal. not one bit.Morning_star
    • if they told you you aren't allowed to drink and that you were going to hell if you did, you might have had a response though :)monospaced
    • imagine if you had them over to your home, and then they told you that you and your spouse couldn't drink in front of them?monospaced
    • I've had them over my house and they were civilized (despite being Muslim).
      In the hypothetical case they threatened me with hell ...

    • ... I would not give a fuck since I don't believe in hell. But I would never invite them back because of their rudeness not because of their beliefs.deadsperm
    • ...'despite being a muslim'...`i'm interested, what did you expect was going to happen'?Morning_star
    • my sometimes extreme muslim friends never said anything if i was drinking alcohol in front of them, as much as i never criticized their choice not to.renderedred
    • we discussed the issue at length, over and over of course. what kind of a world you live in LOLrenderedred
    • LOL, indeed.deadsperm
    • To speak my truth, I live in this crazy utopia where people of different beliefs can have each other over for dinner without being cunts.deadsperm

    • In my truth that's what real tolerance is. Passing judgement on people (believing they're going to hell) but being able to share your table with them.deadsperm
    • deadsperm, you're not alonemonospaced
    • but what if they're trump voters -- dinner still on?Gnash
    • lol, that's every family holiday :)monospaced
    • as a good host they should have offered you some. When vegans come over I make sure they're taken care of._niko
    • ...same with chicks, you have no idea how many bottles of undrinkable zinfandels I've had to purchase over the years lol_niko
    • If you consider it a sin to serve Zinfandel to a host and you still serve then you're just being a cunt. I prefer someone that stands by their beliefs.deadsperm
    • as a host you take care of your guests FFS._niko
    • if crack heads come over I'll make sure I've to the finest crack! lol_niko
    • As a host I offer my guests the best I have to offer. As a guest I accept everything I'm offered with the same kindness that's it being offered with.deadsperm
    • If I want my personal needs met I stay at home or pay an establishment to cater to me.deadsperm
    • right, so if you invite me to your house and you hate fish, but I only eat fish, what happens?_niko
    • You think I would invite you over after this discussion? Fuck off proper!deadsperm
    • lol, aw man, I was hoping for an invite!_niko
    • but seriously when my mates and I get together it's the fucking UN, so many cultures and nationalities and religions, if i host, damn right i'll accommodate_niko
    • ...everyone_niko
    • your muslim hosts should have offered you something to drink, and if you were the only one drinking, you should have politely declined. That's the proper way_niko
    • Seriously, we're in the religion thread. I'm talking about not serving something because of religious beliefs not taste.deadsperm
    • but if they're hardcore and don't allow alcohol in their homes then that's cool too, no need to make it a big pompous thing on QBN lol_niko
    • You're not a fucking fishtarian, you're just being an idiot.deadsperm
    • _niko
      My post is a comment on the previous post which I think is stupid.
      I've reconsidered, you can come over but I'm not serving fish or Zinfandel. Bring ur ow
      deadsperm
    • ... bring your own food and drink.
      God bless!

    • :)_niko
    • Of course they don't drink, they into hash, you should have hit them up for a smoke....robotron3k
    • Is alcohol a must for every dinner?pango
