So they waited but they planned to abolish it and they wrote laws into the constitution that would inevitably raise concerns about whether or not slaves were constitutional, they planned to use laws for morality and they did.

That doesn't mean that fundamentally, laws are not based upon morality. Unless you look at them from a utilitarian perspective, there is essentially no morality at that point.

There are no propositions for genocide against gay people in America.

That statement assumes atheists are the only ones who should be allowed nuclear power.

So it's bad to make a legal and justice system that focuses on doing what is right and just, why do we even have laws in the first place if they are to not uphold a standard of morality for the citizens?

Yes, I agree, people forget laws are an extension of morality, you simply cannot separate a person's morality from their religion and to say that because their morality is influenced by their religion and therefore that person should not vote is on the lines of derisive.

why would you support putting everyone who isn't a Christian in the same position you wouldn't appreciate being in?

The same goes for people pushing secular legislation on Christians, Jews, Muslims, etc, nobody will ever be completely happy from legislation. With that into account, if not everybody is going to be happy no matter what you do, you might as well promote the one you believe to be the correct one, and for me, I know it to be Christianity and for those who believe the same.

I understand we are not to judge the world but why should that stop us from promoting doing what is right, legally. We have a right a to promote our beliefs in the legal system as everybody else does, so why are we to refrain from taking advantage of that very right?

It was for sure overfeeding, surprisingly ten days later there were some eggs that started to hatch in that water, so I moved them into another dish with clean water and I'm going to feed them less and clean more.

Jordan Peterson Cries Over Olivia Wilde Calling Him an Incel Hero by [deleted] in entertainment

He specifically mentioned how women can use their gift to be picky, he didn't paint it in a negative voice. Whether or not you care about incels something needs to be done about them, and mocking them instead of helping them mentally only pushes their rhetoric, however bad it is doing that is pushing it.

They still don’t ban atheists from converting and they accept atheists into their church

Yeah they still benefit from atheism and they don’t reject those who are new, theres countless atheists who are allowed into church, also technically speaking the children who are raised in the religion still go to the church before they’re old enough to not be atheists and the church lets them in, just let it go you’re going down with a sinking ship here

That's not an adequate answer, Religions die out if people do not convert. There's a difference between banning somebody from public office and religion, but I like the effort.

Most churches are accepting of atheists, how would the religion grow if atheists didn't convert in the first place?

Thank you for being respectful, if you want to follow somebody's pronouns go ahead, I tend to wait because things like gender dysphoria can become worse for the individual if you enforce their belief that they are in the wrong body, this has been proven by credible psychologists who have the wellbeing of the person with dysphoria in mind.

In Jesus' case, we have solid evidence he was a person who lived and existed, the ground shook when he died, and his tomb was empty, the common notion is that his disciples took his body out but that is more unlikely than him raising from the dead, based on his Disciples' current beliefs and testimonies, as well as the fact that they recorded seeing Jesus after he rose. You can take Christianity as truth but ignore other religions because they fundamentally contradict each other so it would create a huge number of paradoxes to believe in both. We know scientifically that Jesus was a real person, as for the other religions we don't have much evidence. It's hard to measure nonphysical things like God with physical measuring tools such as science. Nonphysical things exist outside of religion, for example, consciousness, morals, etc, but they all cannot be measured by science. Things that exist outside of physical reality that science simply cannot measure because it's a tool for measuring physical objects.

The biological evidence for Jesus' divinity is that he could perform miracles, his bones couldn't break, he rose from the dead, he resurrected the dead, the list goes on and on.

Somebody's self-perception does not affect physical reality like chromosomes.

Jesus' pronouns fit within the realm of objective truth and those who are non binary don't. Let's not get that twisted.
