Ideology is NEVER based on truth and knowledge, it is based on values. Claiming truth and knowledge is a dishonest distortion, like a lot of your claims.I'm sorry if reality does not conform to your ideology.You are really sick.
My 'ideology' is based on truth and knowledge.
And, yes....you should be sorry.
OK.....once again.....and, you should start taking notes.

"This is the great contribution of our Judeo-Christian foundation to Western civilization. The principles of justice are laid down in the Torah and the Gospels, and implemented through human actions memorialized in judicial codes.
The written laws and rules are codifications of the unwritten ones worked out over millennia as the result of human interactions and experience."
David Mamet
- The Left says of the Right, “You fools, it is demonstrable that dinosaurs lived one hundred million years ago, I can prove it to you, how can you say the earth was created in 4000BCE?” But this supposed intransigence on the part of the Religious Right is far less detrimental to the health of the body politic than the Left’s love affair with Marxism, Socialism, Racialism, the Command Economy, all of which have been proven via one hundred years of evidence shows only shortages, despotism and murder.
1. What you’re really suggesting is that “compared to the left, we hyper- religious aren’t quite as bad”. Well, yes you are. While the hyper-religious tend to want to lecture others on morality, the horrendous acts of cruelty inflicted on humanity by the angry xtians is no different than what the political ideologies of the left have done.
Ultimately, You don’t understand that morality involves decision making (or making a choice), where decision making is accomplished with a cognizant awareness of consequences. The mammalian sense of nurturing the young is not morality, it’s a function of evolution that seeks to preserve the species.
What defines morality is our expectations and choices as to how we extend such gestures as compassion, empathy, fairness, etc. Taking a historical view, angry xtians have a long, lurid history of extending gestures contrary to compassion, empathy, fairness, etc.
You confuse religious government policy or totalitarian theocracy or forced adherence to a given sect with the base philosophy or wellspring of the Logos as it is derived from eons of individual faith and faith's gift to species. Mankind specializes in 'killing itself in the name of ______.' Why not lump all strains of political ideology under the same umbrella of historical misfortune to include government or imperial religious enforcement on a given population? Further, as is a common symptomatic cop-out of so many atheist thinkers, you're attempting (from within a body and mind dependent on emotion, empathy, sympathy and compassion) to desensitize the human existence of these immutable characteristics of the human experience by attributing them to primeval species survival characteristics or defensive mechanisms, thus academically only taking God out of the species DNA package by removing all vestiges of innate morality and then proceeding forward with a purely emotionless proposition and objective, clinical and in your mind it would seem, perfect human automaton.
Trouble is, no human being can be free of feeling, namely feeling guilt, for committing vile acts against fellow members of his species. In other words, every last human being knows the difference between Right acts and Wrong acts every time he or she commits any act at all. Enter moral relativism, a sour dour anti-human philosophy which depends wholly on purely self-destructive species behaviors to justify and prove itself, let alone implement through government power on a given population. You and I would not exist here, now today without our ancestors' belief in the primordial Logos. No, our DNA would be stacked in a pile of bones somewhere long buried after our purely atheist forbears' ran wild with global genocide because human life was to them the cheapest of all life on the planet.
