Sympathy is not a trait that you can tear out from the hearts of social conservatives.


I wasn't implying it for LGBT stuff. I was implying it for the Chicken hawks and other fools who think war is easy or can have rules. To show other people the barbarity of some other foreign cultures. Things of this nature.

There might be backlash yes. Then again, it is so highly unrealistic that I'm sure how we would even go about such a thing.

The State can fail to do its job properly, and it can vary in its form; but in the end, all laws must come from the State, not religion; nor anywhere else.

The Nazi and Soviet States failed because they slaughtered pointlessly and thought they could out-compete a state that had, in its past, won two wars with its mother country with barely any military power of its own, and kept its shit together when secessionists tried ripping it apart.

Bailey, as for you, if I were to make such a regime, I'd appoint you onto the council of my various military and political officials who advise me on things and such. Only because I think you're pretty cool.

Sure. You'd also be tasked with overseeing reeducation of political dissidents / anti-Statists / overall traitors.

1. There's some stuff to indicate it could be involved in pair bonding, which could be undermined by promiscuity wearing out the mechanism.

2. For the fertile, there is risk of baby. Baby is best raised in stable 2-parent home.

3. It's quite possible that lack of desire for promiscuous women among some men is natural, much like how some women naturally prefer tall men.

4. Disease risk.


This was an interesting post. Do you have more observations on that topic?

At worst, the people do - via democracy and constitutionality. At best, the State should know what its job is, and should know how to do it properly without public interference - via political-military dictatorship.

When "at best" is "they just do", I don't have much faith in this ideology.

It isn't, 'they just do'. It's, "they should." If they don't know how to do their jobs properly, that is the only time their authority and jobs should be defined by the people in a democratic manner - to explain their jobs to them. Of course, not in a direct democratic fashion. Trusting the entire populace with any amount of power is risky at best, and anarchic at worst.

It isn't your duty to question the State. Matters of religion do not govern what the State does. The State should always do things in the interests of their people; not their religious beliefs, nor for religions. The State governs us. Not anything else. If something goes against the interests of their people (i.e. psychological or physical harm, etc.), it should be solved somehow or some way. Marriage is a State matter, as it is an agreement of union between two people that the State presides over and legally acknowledges. Religious 'marriage' in a church or whatever is a formality, if that, and just two people expressing their beliefs in the process of marrying someone they love. I don't think we should force religious institutions to marry people, unless the church formed a legally binding contract beforehand with the people - whether they knew the couple was homosexual or not is irrelevant. Once a legally-binding contract is made, the State can and will enforce this contract on behalf of the people in question if the church fails to do so. Churches, so long as there is no binding contract, can feel free to refuse people; the people will likely go elsewhere or simply marry in a courtroom if they so wish.

What's with this total and utter non sequitur? :eyebrow:
I simply can't respond to this post since it has litteraly nothing to do with what I said so, please, just re-read what I said and actually respond to the points I made rather than the ones you wish I had.

If no one knows what the job of the State is, including the State, then I can imagine only two scenarios: a. the State is so far down shit's creek without a paddle because it screwed up so badly at its job that it forgot its job, and so did its people, so they are just there, idle. OR b. there is no state to begin with because no one knows what the job of a state / the state is, and thus there is anarchy... which is essentially every person for themselves.

I know enough to say for certain that the State is the State, the Church is the Church, and the State is superior to the Church, not the other way around.
