There is always discrimination to a point. The Bible even tells you that you should discriminate against those who are not following the Bible. And those who are "of the household of faith" should get preferential treatment. And I agree with it.

They have to be taught the difference between right and wrong for example a lesbian can’t keep going out doing what she’s doing and claim to be a good serious Christian girl when it clearly says in the Bible its an abomination
I mean respecting and tolerating people who don't follow their religion or have different beliefs than them. I also mean not being so quick to point out people's sins and saying they're going to "hell" and respecting lgbt people even if they don't agree with their views.
Oh. Right. 👍 Well, I think there are two ways of looking at this. Are Christians supposed to be loving and kind towards others? Yes. But are Christians supposed to teach people the way of righteous living? I would say the answer to that is yes, too. (Because who else is going to teach them?). But I think it's probably more effective to introduce people to their Savior -- Jesus Christ -- before trying to change their life. Because if they're not willing, and if they don't even see the point, then they're probably just going to be annoyed with you.
Point is, it wasn't a loss. They were child-murdering slimeballs. They weren't a culture; they were a GANG! The Spaniards had a lot of bastards in their ranks too. So it was probably for the best that they went to war. Greed, violence, and superstition killed them all off. Also, the Spaniards were susceptible to New World diseases. It was a two-way street in almost every respect. But the Spaniards had gunpowder. And that was the great un-equalizer.

Since I'm not familiar with all the possible meanings and interpretations of the words judging and discriminating, I'll stay neutral.
I'm Christan by the way, but not a saint.
The whole point of religion is discrimination. You think you have the truth and others don’t.
That's what's known as the "No True Scotsman" fallacy.

all humans must discrimminate. to note who is like and unlike us is a basic requirement of biology
we must take care of our own genes first
They still respect others. They treat them better, rather then how they get treated. It’s like giving someone a rhetorical answer
Save Us Taco Gate
You're confused.
A true Christian does nothing but discriminate, it's part of the job description.
Nobody has the right to define somebody else's faith or what's in their heart
I agree but I also want to point out that saying something is wrong isn't discrimination.
That's what we call the no true Scotsman fallacy. It's like saying no true feminist is like this, and so on..
The whole point of religion is to discriminate, so any real religious person discriminates
In Iran or most middle eastern countries they throw gays off buildings
And behead Christians
Christians can discriminate against the unrighteous
A true christian, would understand the bible, BOTH VERSIONS OF IT
Not just Christian , a true religion should never discriminate others and promote hate.
No True Scotsman fallacy
@AndrésC64 I think she is saying all religions suck lol
True Christians are going to be anti homosexual, tattoos, living together, anti cursing , anti smoking, anti drinking, anti slut dressing.
That depends what you mean by "discriminate."

@Jamie05rhs Ok I get what you're saying.
Thanks!
"Love your neighbor as yourself." Jesus did not say "love certain neighbors more"
Yeah, right. Tell that to all the people who were forced to convert to that religious dogma and the countless cultures destroyed.
Because Aztecs kidnapping children and cutting their hearts out with spoons was SOOO worth preserving, right?
@ObscuredBeyond The fall of the Aztecs came from war with the conquistadors and exposure to Old World diseases they weren't immune from.
