I was really scared when I saw how overwhelmingly impactful the topic of religion is in the United States. I've watched this Youtube video recently discussing LGBT and the conversation was completely derailed by Catholicism. 

 

Here in Lithuania, older generation is religious mostly, but I personally don't know anybody going to church on a Sunday. Although, Catholicism is really used as a scapegoat to hate on all of the minorities in the country, because people don't want to take accountability of their own hateful feelings/thoughts and choose to hide behind the 'Bible said so'... 

 

It's really annoying how you can be an absolute awful prick just because of your religious beliefs. 

 

Yep. Personally I mostly hate how much it influences local politics. Like, we've got the SGP, a very, very strictly Christian political party. Usually scores a very solid 2% or so, nationally, which has been hovering around that for many decades, since their base is very strong yet very....undynamic. However, in certain places, including my own, it gets to 20%+, even above 50% in some smaller towns (like one that is part of my municipality). They want to rule with the Bible in hand, which just goes so much against everything I believe in (people being free in their religion, but religious choices having no place in politics, laws and so on).

 

And to think I know from experience it can definitely be 'normal', if people want. My own sister is Christian, yet treats everyone absolutely normal and with the same kindness. Same for her boyfriend. Heck, even my very own girlfriend is a Christian, but also the kind who doesn't try to convince others about it being the 'right' way or anything. If that was the case, she and I (a very much non-believer) wouldn't have been together for almost 6 years now  

 

But having grown up and still living in - and probably always living in - a town where it plays a huge role...yeah, a lot of people take it way too far.

To think back then there was still an entire continent named after one of the most insignificant Dutch provinces, instead of just a country
