Dude we just want to live as ourselves we don’t want to pick sides with people who want us dead but historically in America it’s been religious leaders who have persecuted people in those communities or encouraged it or things like the kkk were based off of twisted religious views
They might have started that way but they slowly collapsed the issue with a country wide religion being enforced is that they tend to get rid of human rights based kn what they consider moral such as what I said about Christian nationalist countries killing lgbtq people like in Russia when a Christian majority or majority of any religion has total control it effects everything negatively such as the aids crisis where people wanted to let them die because they were gay and they said god cursed
Christian nationalism produced the most oppressive empires in the history of the world, and some of the bloodiest wars. You go read a history of the wars of religion and tell me christianity is a force for good in the world. They used to burn people alive, man, because they didn’t believe the right things. Rationalism has been the driving force for good in the world for the past 250 years, supported primarily by the USA.
Can we please stop using gay ppl as a reason to hate on Muslims. Queer here and I can’t stand the pink washing bullshit. Muslims don’t hate gay ppl anymore than Christian’s do but b/w the maga hat Christian or a Muslim in the Middle East I’m going to the Muslim. You throw stones in a glass house my friend
Well no not really, but the USA was built on the foundation of being a safe haven to all religions as long as the people respect the democracy built here. It’s not founded as a Christian nation, its culture was eventually built that way because of its popularity. You’re forgetting that some pilgrims fled here to escape things associated with Christianity
I would also like to note that during most of these empires there was an almost perpetual state of civil war, mob violence and internal and external conflict that was much worse than it is today under secularism. England had invasions about every hundred years from christianization onwards, and England is an island which is particularly hard to invade.
