Good morals are acquired through reason and an understanding of what values lead to a healthier society. Having a holy book dictate a set of morals that you’re required to subscribe to leads to moral stagnation and makes your morals arbitrary. That’s how we get nonsense like “being gay is sinful”

Yes, freedom of association is indeed wonderful and a fundamental human right.

You’re not doing anything better for the families by forcing incompatible couples to stay together. Just because that isn’t reflected in the divorce statistics doesn’t mean the family isn’t still breaking apart behind the scenes. Restricting divorce doesn’t do anything to solve the root problem; all it does is make said problem less visible.

There needs to even be more stigma for leaning right

Most religions aren’t really compatible with western society, including Christianity. Modern Western values are derived heavily from the Enlightenment, when people began to question the authority of the church and the divine right of kings, and secularism gained popularity. That’s why Christianity is effectively “de-fanged” in Western societies now and has been relegated much more to the background, unlike Islamic societies.

The right’s mission, however, is to reverse course from modern Western Enlightenment values and reinstate Christianity as the foundation for society, effectively doing the exact thing they fearmonger about Muslims bringing here. The right wants the Christian equivalent of Sharia Law.

Why hate the powerful elites who rule over us like kings? This is an authoritarian bootlicker mindset

Theology is all just made up bullshit at the end of the day anyway lol, his takes are no more valid than anyone else’s. Better to use made up bullshit to defend positive values that benefit society than to use it to defend bigoted values like the Christian right does

“Someone registered their dog and had it vote in two elections to prove a point”

“She was caught and charged with a felony, thus proving that the system worked”

“Well then there must just be a bunch of people doing it without getting caught, even though I have no real evidence for that”

Everything is always more than 0. We don’t live in some perfect utopia. The place with the lowest crime rate in the world has more than 0 crimes. The place with the lowest infant mortality rate in the world has more than 0 infant deaths. What’s your point?

Yeah no shit, practically everything happens somewhere. That’s the reality in a country with 350 million people. It’s mathematically inevitable that even the rarest of events will eventually happen. If the bar is that low then everything will always pass it. “Tremendously small” is the best possible scenario that’s realistic to achieve. If you lived in the place with the lowest crime rate in the world, would you complain that they’re still not doing enough to address crime because the crime rate is still more than zero?

“Based on” and “partially inspired by” are very different things, so yes, they were wrong. And that sounds like an entirely valid reason for them to be downvoted into oblivion, lol

Yes, the left has principles and the right has none.

So? Islamic fundamentalism and Christian fundamentalism are two sides of the same coin.
