The amount of logical leaps you applied to the conversation is simply beyond the bounds of good faith. That's why talking to people like you is difficult and frequently unrewarding... Just like your cousins on the left. Constraining ourselves to the words on the stones implies precisely nothing you've written. Meanwhile, we have two thousand years of Christian dogmatism that is explicitly totalitarian and violent and repressive literally everywhere it has ever held power. There are reasons theocracies are universal failures in practice. Have opinions, certainly. Discuss and disagree, by all means. But the wildly manipulative strategy of fictional narration you've employed goes beyond simple strawmanning an argument to an intentionally bad faith effort to trainwreck any positive or productive discourse that might have otherwise been had. That is why entire population segments who would otherwise support and defend the Christian are utterly repelled by them instead. Look no further than the NeoCon takeover of the Republican party between the late eighties and mid-nineties and how it fragmented a party once based on secular principles of Constitutional conservatism, fiscal responsibility, and limited governance into the Christian party of manipulative amoral zionists. Everyone who wasn't onboard with a party platform beginning and ending with abortion, fags, and complete vassalization to Israel became too leftist for the party. The result being the swell of independent, apolitical, libertarian, and 'moderate' democrats (which are almost exactly the same as the NeoCon, simply without the pious theater during election season.) Christians, like Muslims, don't like to coexist with others... Particularly in matters of governance, the difference is that due to the deeply disliked nature of their behaviors, the Christian has been effectively castrated in the modern world, and since the Muslim doesn't traditionally exist within a civil society, they don't give a fuck. For those that may not have read the guidestones... Look upon the face of Abrahamic evil and know that multinational Christianity stands in opposition to this message. Maintain humanity under 500,000,000 in perpetual balance with nature. Guide reproduction wisely — improving fitness and diversity. Unite humanity with a living new language. Rule passion — faith — tradition — and all things with tempered reason. Protect people and nations with fair laws and just courts. Let all nations rule internally, resolving external disputes in a world court. Avoid petty laws and useless officials. Balance personal rights with social duties. Prize truth — beauty — love — seeking harmony with the infinite. Be not a cancer on the earth — Leave room for nature — Leave room for nature.
