Of course I don't want any such thing as a state religion. The world would be a better place though, if we just lived by these simple rules. Or do you disagree?
You trigger easily and are prone to hyperbole, this would be a much happier discussion if you could take it down a notch and debate the facts being discussed instead of attempting to make points by taking a small piece of the discussion and molding them to meet an objective.
When you specifically mention christian values, it’s to the express exclusion of other commonly practiced and accepted religions in America. Islam, Hindu, Buddhism, Judaism, for instance. Atheists make a very compelling argument that you don’t need a religion to be a good person. That’s not triggering, but perhaps your statement about values being exclusively christian says more than you meant it to.
Also I agree the discussion about the BLM pin should be at least related to why it exists and abuses by the state under the color of law, not religious value systems.
