Reply to comment by noahboi1917 in TIFU by making a comment about a star. by noahboi1917

It's most likely a thing of respect, Judaism and catholicism are heavily Christian centered they just probably felt like you were being disrespectful, to think a star of David is on par with a pentagram or pentacle is a little out of touch. I feel you because I had once lost my own faith and studied other religions but trying to be a know it all around generally close minded individuals will never go over well, understandably so.

I get you, but I swear I wasn't trying to come off as a condescending know-it-all. I thought I was just sharing a fun fact.

Nah I believe it, but that's how people will see it, especially if they don't know much about their own religion which is usually the case sadly

Thank you! My own mother has been a Christian for like 40 years, but I know so much more about the bible than her. It's weird.

I bet it was the proof of David comment. No matter how you meant it, you did say (albeit indirectly) that there is no proof of much of their beliefs.

If they don't know you very well, it's pretty reasonable to think that you might be trying to start an argument.
