Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Sharia Law permits abortions in some cases.
If they followed the teachings of Jesus I might not mind so much.

"I'M FILLED WITH CHRIST'S LOVE!!"
Y'all Qaeda.
You mean their made up fake Christian values. If an actual Christian saw what these creeps consider Christian values, they'd be very upset. Pretty sure infidelity, bribery, cheating, fraud, name calling, mockery, gambling, false worship, casting out of strangers and all the rest is exactly contradictory to the book they claim to hold in reverence.
All Christian values are made up, bruh. But I get your point.
There is no God it's only you bro
Christian? They are a fucking pedophilic ring.
our morality is God’s morality
That's because you invented your idea of God to match your own prejudices.
Do I believe what God believes?
Humans have beliefs and opinions. If you think that which creates and sustains the universe has beliefs and opinions, it strongly suggests you're overly likening it to yourself. Once again, you're projecting your own prejudices.
Just another case of assholes inventing God in their own image and claiming it went the other way round.
Your god deserves to be skull fucked to death. Along with your neo nazi Christian subsect.
When is someone going to get fed up enough and [ Removed by Reddit ] ?
I think you're confused about which website we'rebon. We're on Lemmy here. This is a higher class of website. So, the question you should be asking:
When is someone going to get fed up enough and [ Removed by Lemmy ] ?
If you don’t like it, I’m sorry
...as Jesus himself so famously said, of course.
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.
Emphasis mine.
Christian nationalists cannot fucking stand that you don’t share in and support their delusion, that you’re not subject to their little club, and that their power dynamics cannot legally bind you. They’re crazy because their beliefs do not align with reality, and the founders knew that they are crazy. It was the first thing they thought of when first amending the constitution after our government was formed.
It will never be enough for them to simply practice their own religion for themselves, their own families, or even their own associations. The flock must grow, by coercion if possible, by force if necessary. The great invisible hand of the “savior” reaches from beyond the grave through the raised arms of voting supplicants, cloaked in peace while sowing righteous fury and stark judgement with starry-eyed innocence and empty smiles.
How funny is it that infinite, omnipotent, unknowable God happens to want exactly the same things as rich white American men? “God” is just convenient excuse for stripping away rights and projecting ego.
Here’s something that’s really hard to believe: That this bullshit still works.
Wouldn't have too much of a problem if they actually had fucking morals.
1797 - Treaty of Tripoli. Unanimously voted on and signed by the 2nd President of the United States, John Adams:
"[t]he Government of the United States of America is not in any sense founded on the Christian religion."[4]
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Treaty_of_Tripoli
Christo-fascists go "Nuh unh! It's not in the Arabic text!"
To which the correct answer is "Yes, it's the ENGLISH version that was voted on and signed by President Adams."
Sharia Law then.
You think you know what god believes? Always trying to impose it on others, even if they've told you no. Sounds like god derangement syndrome!
Yeah, we know! The Christian Right is dead-set on rolling back the rights of the women, same-sex couples, LGBTQ kids, and other minority groups. Think I'm exaggerating? Think of the Dobbs decision.
Hmmm sounds familiar.
Makes sense. We all remember the part of the Bible where literally Satan tempted Jesus with authority over all the kingdoms of the earth if he would only bow down, and Jesus said "Cool, now I can make everyone live the way they should. You got yourself a deal, Satan."
Okay, yes, but Harris didn’t support the proletariat enough.
The unfortunate downside to religious freedom is anyone can turn their insane values into a cult and spread it largely uninhibited.
You mean all the screeching about "they're forcing the gay/trans agenda down our throats" was projection this entire time?
If it’s “love thy neighbor,” then great.
If it’s “be bigoted pieces of shit,” then I’m sorry, but hail Satan— and I meant “sorry” as earnestly as you meant it, fucko.
Aren't commies known for shutting down all religions in their regions? Will this be my final straw? Am I a commie now? How do you do, fellow tankies?
