If someone disagrees with your beliefs should you block them and sterilize your world?!


Question: It seems to be a pretty popular approach around here. Some people can't handle disagreement, humor or thoughts that are outside their little world.

If you're talking about jenasauras, blow her off, she's a super hypocrite vegan that wants to own chickens and goes to the zoo and plays hide and seek with an ape.

Absolutely not. Just like in the business world,
competition is the spice of business.

No but you may need to set some boundaries and demand respect for your beliefs. If someone is persistently insistent that your beliefs are wrong I would definitely limit contact with that person as their negative thought patterns are damaging to your psyche.

Unless they are being hateful, then no. After all, people should be entitled to their own beliefs and besides, this is a free country after all.

No...disagreement is healthy, and often leads one to think about his/her stance. Try to learn about and respect what others are saying.

Only if you want to become extremely narrow minded, dull, out of touch with reality, and, believe it or not, sometimes WRONG.

Ideally we never quit learning as long as we live. Stay with your beliefs as long as you think they are valid, but never block yourself off from the beliefs, opinions, views, or discoveries of others.....who knows if they have something better than you have that you just might be missing out on.

A sterilized world is a dead world.

every one has the right to there beliefs you cant take away and nor should you .it is also your right no to agree with these beliefs as far as sterilise your world that's up to you also big job ahead but my saying is live and let live :-)

Anyone can disagree with me as much as they would like to.

That doesn't mean that I have to listen to them or be their friend.

No..not at all. I may not like what they have to say....but I listen just like I would expect them to do the same/give me respect. AND SOMETIMES they do have great counter arguments/parts to what I have to say...just not go eat a steak. Sometimes it really makes me think....and I have to admit I like it better when they can counter argue what I have to say...that means they thought about it. Now to what degree varries greatly..but they still thought about why they do what they do/their choices. When I talk about being veggie all I want them to do is think about their choices...that's it..whether or not they change isn't up to me...and doen't happen but every blue moon(and so far that has only been very small things..very small things). All they want me to do is think about my choices too...and I respect that. Now I can tell you more often than not I don't change anything...but that is beside the point.

If I am completely secure in my own beliefs, what other people believe is irrelevant.

just disagrees then it'd be fine, I suppose. everyone is entitled to their own opinion. But if they're mocking my beliefs and won't listen to my opinion on the subject then that person is simply ignorant and isn't worth my time. so it defends on how the disagreement is being presented.

Some times the best yipe of friendships bloom when having to work with the challenges of differen beliefs. after all the is only one YOU, and it can get pretty lonley if you block any one who has differen beliefs than yours.

Hmm, I wonder why this is in the V&V section...

Look, if someone disagrees respectfully, no, I won't block them. However, there are many trolls on here who seem to get a kick riling up--in one or two cases actually harassing-- vegans. And those are the ones I probably would block and/or report.

No, but if your on a set goal with your beliefs it goes help.

sanity eludes you, doesn't it?

I believe that people should ask honest questions and not pretend to be asking for information, when the are just looking for agreement. When someone does this I block them, as a way of marking them so I will know not to waste my time with them again. Usually do not answer argumentative question, but if I do I expect a biased response and do not block because they give fair warning of their intentions.

When it gets to be harassment, yes.

No, I block people who seem to produce childish, agressive, troll-like output.

If you dis-agree with me in a logical and respectful way, you don't get blocked
