Thank God for secularism

[martybegan]

Oh, you mean like references to gay men that literally changed history in a constructive fashion?

No, I mean advocating pride when all you need to teach is tolerance.

 

[martybegan]

Personally none of them. In public secular school, literally half of them.

Actually only the 1st 3 reference God.

While this is, indeed good news, OTH, the localities should be able to chose to display them if they would rather have a more Christian/Jewish oriented public sphere, rather than having drag shows in front of kindergartners.

No, they should not be allowed to display them in public schools. Not anywhere.

Something you have much experience of.

I do.

I burn the sin out of souls in eternal hell fire.

Stay out of the darkness and you won't end up in hell

You fear a real contest of ideas, waged in front of an ADULT, informed audience.

Hahahaha

Please DO trot out yourself and your fellow racists and have a contest over the idea of the Smithsonian casting slavery in a bad light.

Please do.

Or sissy out, like I know you will.

Why do you insist and diverting a perfectly good topics of discussion into the Gaza debate?

Because he's an agent of Hamas/Iran.

Keep the civil rights movement, remove the DEI guilt trip parts.

Oh, you mean like doing away with the sidewalk ramps that give disabled people the ability to be mobile on our sidewalks? DEI is a lot more than just removing the bigotry against the colored from our society.

 

[MisterBeale]

Not in a secular society

And btw, we are NOT a secular society.

We are a society based on western morals and dogma, which is at its heart, based on Greco-Roman, and Judaeo Christian precepts.

LOL, you really stretch to sidewalk ramps on this? ******* pathetic.

DEI is nothing more than another version of Marxist critical theory applied to race and other things.

DEI isn't about removing bigotry, it's about reversing it and channeling it against the normies.

 

[MisterBeale]

Because he's an agent of Hamas/Iran.

I've have no problem discussion the justice of that issue, but diverting ever single topic into it?

Lunacy.

 

[Sherlock Holmes]

I do.

There's no such thing.

Stay out of the darkness and you won't end up in hell

Not me sonny, you don't scare me:

 

[Fort Fun Indiana]

Right, we're just a society with a secular government.

It's such a simple, old idea. Yet we have to remind the godbotherers of it on a weekly basis.

That's an interesting way of saying you like to crank your hog.

Secular means neutral when it comes to religion, not hostile to religion as you want it.

Oh look, Marty showed up to invent a strawman to crybaby about.

This must be a day that ends in 'y'.

When society is teaching shame, maybe that is a defense mechanism needed to survive. I really don't give a damn about what someone does in their bedroom. I do care what they do in relation to the treatment of other people. And right now, I see most MAGAts as very hate filled people, willing to harm anyone they cannot control.

It's such a simple, old idea. Yet we have to remind the godbotherers oidif it on a weekly basis.

The precepts on which our, "secular," government is based? Are the four cardinal virtues which enabled enlightenment thinking.


The secular ideas which communist nations are based? Something entirely different.

Folks like you don't even believe in free speech or free association since you have been so thoroughly ideologically subverted.

God is not religious.

and **** **** Indy does a drive by non-response, as usual.

All of (what we call) scripture (or rather the cannon that was defined by Catholic scholars) is interpreted by the reader. You see what you want to see, for example here's what you see when you read the 6th commandment:

“You shall not murder Americans or Jews but Palestinians, even babies are OK to slaughter and maim".

What's more if you were a teacher and a child ask what the 6th commandment meant, you'd give that child your interpretation, I as a parent don't want demon possessed monsters like you polluting my children's minds with your racism and perverted morality.

Let's hear from a Muslim woman who lived in Israel.
