Why the rightwing is freaking out in America

Christianity is in decline. It is being quickly being relegated to a subculture - a besieged one at that, given how the anti-discrimination laws are starting to be the law of the land. These Americans feel like their way of life is threatened by rising secularism, and there is an anxiety among many that their culture - unmoored from its Christian anchor - could go in any direction. So we see the racism and other anti social behaviors that were always in the sub surfacing, surfacing
I'll agree with your post, except the last sentence. I feel kind of bad for evangelical Christians who see the society around them "going to hell" in their eyes. The problem is how they can feel comfortable in our world without infringing on the rights of others. All the laws and law suits that have sprung up to either help or stop these Christians from living their beliefs have become a far more divisive topic than the religious right ever wished to begin. Racists and homophobes have jumped on their train, but I do wish there was a way to respect these people's rights to not engage in what they call sin, without tearing society apart.
they brought it on themselves
How?

Let's hang them in the town square.

No. Let's crucify them.

The more tolerant way to rid the world of those you despise.
 
yeah, well most of those folks are well armed. I'd love to see the libtard idiots try that.
 
83% of Americans are religious Tommy. I don't see them going away anytime soon. What are your assertions based on? Your own experience? The only abuse I see is the abuse towards those who are religious. What have these individuals done to warrant your scorn and insults?
Great questions. The answer is, the Regressive Left is just that way.

Yet they're the first to jump in after a jihadist attack and spin/deflect for a different religion.

They're every bit as hateful and bigoted and hypocritical as those they loathe, if not more so.

Its telling that a reasonable proposition is shouted down by the ignorant. You could debate the point with intelligence and sense but..........................
......you don't want to debate the point with intelligence and sense.

I'm am far from religious but I have enough sense to leave people alone.

I'd like to see some actual proof that this is true.

And nobody is shouting anyone down.

Why is it that those who disagree with you are ignorant?

It is always an insult with you.

How do you have an intellectual conversation with someone who starts the conversation with an insult?
Well I am not totally convinced by his assertion and it is obviously based on his experience. But nobody has tried to counter that with anything but abuse. I think that is poor.

It gets old and worn out.

Blame everyone else for hate. Insult and ridicule them and claim moral high ground.

The left's moral high ground is a swamp

No, just chuckling at your response.You didnt read,or understand, what I wrote.
 
The old racism of the 50s and 60s is being replaced, I agree. It is being replaced with the lefts racism of regular white folks. Most of those people from the 50s and 60s are gone.

The nazis blamed the Jews for a lot of Germany's problems. I see the left here in America doing the same thing to innocent whites. Racism IS alive and thriving in the USA. It is growing like never before and the left is responsible.

Clearly, Guno was abused by a Priest or Rabbi, or both when he was younger. The worst part is he then went to Cuba to offer himself to the Castros and they gladly took him as their play toy

Ahh folks, there you have the lefts response to anything they don't agree with in writing.
 
Wrong again, Slick.

Hysterical.

Sir. I can assure you that I don't have an emotional bone in my body.

The OPer started a flame thread and is getting what is due.

You, on the other hand are an ignorant fool who insults and ridicules those he does not know and is unable to engage in an intelligent and meaningful conversation without more ridicule, insults and hyperbole.

I told you once before Tommy. Don't insult me.

I'm not an uneducated American that you so love to vilify and insult.

Your concession is again accepted.
 
Didn't think so.

Tommy. Your concession is accepted.
You are being hysterical.

What do you want to discuss ?
The fact that pretty much every post tends to support the OPs assertions ?
Go back to post #15.

Answer if you can.

You have no intention.

Your insults do not work on me.

I've dealt with your kind all my life.

Man up, Slick. If you get called you should back up your ignorance.

I'll finish with you later.
