Plus you need to know these terms in order to know where you fall yourself.


Except at no point in your life is having a word for your philosophy on supernatural matters really going to have that big of an impact outside of religious conflicts (which, generally, hold agnostics and atheists with the same disdain anyway).

The point is not that blood type and religion are similar, the point is that they are things that are unique to people and no one else really cares what your belief is unless it somehow affects them personally. People don't know the difference because it's not important to a lot of people, just like how most people don't know the history of the divide between Western and Eastern Rome. Personally, I think that period of Roman history if fascinating, but I don't go around talking down to others if they don't know that the term 'Byzantine' was posthumously created to distinguish the Eastern half of Rome from the Western.
