here's one: Seventh Day Adventists are all apart of a cult. Not true. If you look up the word cult, the object of such devotion. (dictionary.com) then i guess you could say they are a cult, but only because they believe in Jesus who came to die for them and God who sent his son Jesus. If you say they are one, then you must say all Christians are one too, because SDA's are Christian. They just believe that the 7th day (Saturday) is the sabbath that is mentioned in The Bible in Exodus 20. and many other places in the Bible such as in Exodus 16 where God gave manna to the people of Isral and told them in verse 23 to gather extra because there wouldn't be any Sabbath.

Another one: All Seventh Day Adventists are vegetarians. No, it is true that they strive to not eat meat, but it is not against their religion to eat meat, and many do.

Probably the most common stereotype that the Non-Religious have of the Religious is that the Religious are dumber or crasser than the Non-Religious and are, therefore, only Religious because of this stupidity. Conversely, many Religious People are incredibly intelligent and simply have a disagreement about the nature of reality.

Stereotypes might not necessarily be true. People consider Irish people to be drunks. Canadians as too polite and Americans as obese.

What is to make a stereotype?

Stereotypes are widely held common beliefs about social groups, or different types of individuals. Stereotypes are beliefs, most of which are wrong. Stereotypes are not in and of themselves prejudice, but prejudice can result. For example, many believe that the Japanese are particularly brilliant, and there are similar stereotypes about the Germans being brilliant in science and engineering. These stereotypes don't seem to be negative and are possibly harmless. But even stereotypes like these might be used by some as a basis for harmful prejudices. There are many very unflattering stereotypes about many other nationalities and groups of every kind. So individuals don't really 'make' stereotypes; they develop over time within large populations and for various reasons. Individuals who don't give stereotypes much thought, or who are prone to prejudice, might easily fall into believing many negative stereotypes about groups and individuals from those groups.
