57% Of Republicans Want Christianity As National Religion

[Genivaria]

Sure. Anyone of any faith can be violent and disgusting.


But (most of) the Christians in the US are violent and disgusting, my mother was a Christian and literally said any non-Christians were evil demons and I should hate them all.

And most of the atheists in the US are communists, yes? Just what is your source to that claim? Your mother?

Lol what the fuck? No.

[Western-Ukraine]

No.

I know I'm damn sure not a communist.

Nor did I ever claim that you were.

[Desperate Measures]

The tower of pizza honestly isn't that high.

My bad.... I keep eating it.
You should have mentioned you were trying to make a tower.

You didn't see me attempting to flamboyantly launch myself off of it?

[Dyakovo]

I recognized it as yet another stupid thing you apparently believe.

But I don't claim anywhere that I believe in that. I don't generalize as much as most of the left-wingers here do.

You seem to be the third one already not to see the sarcasm there. I didn't claim that atheists in the US were communist.

[Soldati Senza Confini]

All I can say is nope.

America has always been secular and it should fucking remain secular.

Problem with adopting Christianity as a national religion: which denomination is going to be more powerful than the others in the legislature?

[Farnhamia]

Personal claims and own opinions aside do you have any real statistics or research on that?

Oh and you think that the Ukraine is a great place to live? There is a war in your country you slob. You cant trash talk a country better than your own.

And you can't trash talk anyone here. Knock it off now!

[Genivaria]

I know I'm damn sure not a communist.

You apparently think most atheists are. Which is laughably ignorant.

[Imperialpowersofkorea]

You know what kinds of countries have a national religion

1) Saudi Arabia
2) Pakistan
3) Iraq
4) England
5) and the cult of kim il sung is a religion as he never dies, so north Korea

Do the Americans want to be like these successful countries ?

I haven't yet seen a right-winger here generalizing. The generalizations here that I have seen were made by leftists.

A. Other things are certainly on the rise, but roughly 3/4ths of the country still identify as Christian. Culturally and statistically the country is still Christian, by and large.

There is a difference between the country and the stated religion of the people of the country. There is more to a culture than the stated religion of the people of the country. How many countries in Europe have Christian majorities as large or larger than the US? And yet they are all different in their cultures both from the US and from each other.

B. Who said anything about ceasing? I'm saying they wouldn't have anymore grounds than they already do. They're not gonna cease so long as they still have breath.

I find it just as hard to believe that having won so great a victory as establishing Christianity as the official religion of the US that they would fail to capitalise upon it, whatever form that victory took.

A. I think you're making the mistake of assuming Christianity is a homogenous concept, it is not. And there are many facets of culture, religion being one of those facets. That facet of American Culture, is largely Christian. I don't get why this is such a hard concept to understand.

B. No, they would capitalize on it, what I'm saying is they wouldn't net any gains off it.

Whatever you want to belive... Believing that most atheists are communist is ignorant yes.

Yeah I find it amusing when some theists actually claim NK is somehow an atheist country.
I didn't realize believing your Dear Leader is a god is atheism now.

[Soldati Senza Confini]

Eh, this is a non-issue. The UK has Christianity as a national religion, and most people there aren't even Christian, and don't particularly care what the national religion is.

Let me make this clear.

In the UK? Perhaps there's a different, more tolerant culture.

Here in America? I don't trust Americans by enabling them to recognize their fucking tripe about "America was founded on CHRISTIAN values" and never will.

[Dyakovo]

So that's why there were shoe prints on my pizza...

[Norstal]

They don't care because they choose not to care and they already experienced the result of having the church control everything. The English Civil War.

I'd rather people learn from history and not repeat the same mistakes.

And just why is my differing opinion so stupid to you? Sure if someone talked about banning religion for good then you would listen with your communist friends but when a real right-wing fundamentalist view is introduced then you just laugh at their opinions.

Sorry to not live up to your stupid stereotype, but I would not be in favor of banning religion.

Just the free exercise part.

[Finium]

This poll was of 317 people...

Yeah these 57 % of people will take their country down with them

The poll was not of the entire US or even of the Republican party. So that is not an accurate statement.

You don't see the generalization in your own post?

It's the same thing Texas legislators said about their new regulations on abortion to make sure "women had safer access to abortions".

Now there's only less than 20 clinics in Texas.

Yes, I don't trust Americans. I'm wary of them and their politics as it is.

1st half of thread: Mostly respectful discussion on the intricacies of Constitutional Law and US politics.
2nd half of thread: "Fuck Republicans, they ebul and stupid."

[Neo Rome Republic]

Not at all surprised.
