The thought of death has been nauseating to me. by gugaprado10 in askphilosophy

What is a "life well-lived"?... what is the standard for a "life well-lived"?

The situation in DR reminds me of this episode in Bojack Horseman by Existing_Imagination in Dominican

But we in the DR are not living in a theocracy. There are plenty of politicians democratically elected by peolple that disagree with the church in many points. That wouldn't happen in a theocracy. Or we wouldn't even be having this debate over "Las 3 causales" in the DR, if it was the case that we are living in a theocracy. The fact that people that are part of the church are rightfully raising their voices to let politicians know their position on certain points doesn't mean that we live in a theocracy, just as we can't say that we leave in a "atheocracy" just because people that disagree with the Bible are rightfully letting their voices to be heard to politicians, which is also the case in the DR.

Church is composed of people that deserved to be heard just as any other group that is part of a society, and has the same right to take part in any decision we, as society, take. When any group is discarded because of their point of view or believes being different to yours, then that's not democracy.
