No it hasn't, homelessness, crime, unemployment, unhappiness and suicide have increased since then, I wonder why huh?
Crime has been on a net downtrend since 1992, the last I checked, likely due to a combination of: environmental legislation and regulations (in particular, those that eliminated lead in gasoline), since exposure to lead is proven to increase crime and mental illness rates; and access to legal and safe abortion, since unwanted children are proven to act out more often, which increases the likelihood that they will do things that cause them to be arrested. The only reason it seems to be on the rise is because of media sensationalism. Shocking stories generate profit.
As for homelessness, unemployment, unhappiness, and suicide, those are all things you'd have to prove an increase in, though I guarantee you any increase in those statistics is due to right-wing economic policies enacted since the 70s and 80s that have tried to regress workers and consumers rights in the name of corporate greed and expanding "the free market" and "cutting unnecessary red tape".
In other words, your very own fucking ideology is to blame for those things. Look no further for the closest mirror for someone to spit at.
What's wrong with that?
Homosexuality is evil
Prove it.
and spreads disease,
Not inherently, and increased disease risk is only an argument for better sex education in general.
it has lead to the morale destruction of society,
Prove it.
it goes go against what the bible says.
No, it doesn't. Quote me any and every verse you can think of, I've debunked them all more times than I can fucking count. I've been addressing that bullshit since 2012, I guarantee you can't come up with an argument I haven't seen before.
Once you're done with that, then prove why US law needs to be based on "da bibble".
If anything, it is secularism that has made peaceful and prosperous nations. One needs only look at the growth of peace, stability, and prosperity across the globe and the rise of secularism to prove it.
Secularism is a cancer that has lead to use abandoning our most precious values, it kills countries.
Objectively false, and what "most precious values" are those? Hatred? Everyone being some cookie-cutter clone? We're better off without them.
The only rot that will happen is by not abandoning social conservatism, fascism, bigotry, religious fundamentalism, and "traditionalist" thinking. Those are the ideologies that lead to hellholes, not whatever the fuck "SJW" allegedly means.
Fascism does not belong there,
It absolutely does.
and all the others are what is commanded in the bible, going against that is going against the word of god.
No, they fucking aren't, but even if I accepted that, that only means your god is a worthless shitstain that holds humanity back, and should actively be fought against at every turn.
The choice is between progress and death.
Progress IS death.
False. Regress is death.
Embracing our past values and rejecting post-modern values is the only way for the west to survive.
Those "past values" are self-destructive and objectively terrible.
