I hear a lot from people when I say "most" or "some" that I am generalizing, I never understand but that's not my question, just an extra tidbit. My main line of thought from anyone ranging from Christians, atheists, Buddhists to Jews. When you say that someone is generalizing, I've noticed that it is mainly negatives being generalized (such as "All atheists are baby killers" or "All Christians are rednecks" etc. etc.) and I can understand that, but what if someone gave you a good generalization, like "all atheists are logical, free thinking, intelligent people" and "Christians are kind, loving, and tolerant?" Would you still say I am generalizing if it is a good thing?
