    It annoys me that my fellow humans should stick to backward beliefs , yeah, partly because I live among them so they can have an impact in my life and partly because I quite naturally love humanity and seeing friends go lunatic is not pleasant.
    That being said I can learn from different theories provided they make sense.

    No as long as they are able to respect my right to my own beliefs and as long as they dont harm anyone in the practice of thier own.

    If they are racist, bigoted, and homophobic beliefs, I am indeed annoyed.

    No but it annoys me when they try to force it upon me or act like a snoot thinking they're right and what not.

    well it depends on their beliefs.. if they believe the sea is red and i believe it is blue.. then i don't mind.. but if they believe God is a man, and a naked woman is decent.. i think we have a problem here.. i won't argue but that person is.. who is it again?

    Good question.
    It does partly because I feel they are wrong if not belivers in God they are the ones that cause the suffering in the world.so when they say leave them alone I am wishing they would also leave me alone.
    This is my concern

    They used to, but now I'm far more annoyed by personalities than I am by their beliefs. I'll still argue though. :D

    That actually depends on what kind of beliefs they preach. If it's religious I couldn't careless. If it affects me personally in some kind of way, I guess it does annoy me.

    Not really, sometimes to be fair, specifically when someone keeps arguing me everywhere just for the sake of arguing and proving me wrong, not for the sake of discussing or just learning etc... - However, I'd say the people seem to be annoyed with me for my beliefs more than I am annoyed with them - I don't think that my belief is an enough reason for someone not to like etc... specially when I remain tolerant to them, yet I still can feel it annoys them and it is changing them towards me... I say here... that's their problem, there is nothing that I can do!
