I can't believe people still believe Trump is Putin's puppet after this, let alone after Trump bombed Syria.

I mean that's usually part and parcel of the belief in pleasing God. You don't really know which part specifically appeals to individual people, and tbh it really doesn't matter because it's spiritual and based on faith. So It's not like people who only work hard and earn money so they can attract hot women (for instance).And even with those people, that's really nobody else's business why they're working hard and earning money, as long as they don't mean harm to others.
I'm not talking about harm or anything. I'm talking about the hypocrisy of labeling other people without a belief in the afterlife as having less of a moral compass when I hardly find it moral to be motivated by something that doesn't involve genuine compassion for others to begin with.
I am aware of the various other factors that motivate and guide Christians, but they're not what I'm talking about right now. As I said, religion can absolutely serve as a moral compass, but if it's just the heaven-hell aspect, then that's not particularly moral in my opinion. Certainly not as moral as actually caring about others.
lol They removed "mateship" from a war memorial on the Kokoda Track and replaced it with friendship because "mate" was offensive to some locals. **** off. It's a word, and I don't even know how it's offensive. It symbolizes good things...
@KJ - Restricting any language from being used by any class of people is an infringement on freedom of speech. Tell her to **** off.
I need to stop getting into abortion discussions on the internet, the vitriol of that debate is just ****ing retarded.
If you're pro-choice you get called a murderer (even though almost nobody on either side of the debate considers murder justifiable and most pro-choice people disagree that a fetus constitutes a human life).
If you're pro-life, you get called a bible thumper trying to shove your religion down other people's throats and violate the separation of church and state (even though valuing human life is not a uniquely Christian value, in fact its the secular value upon which anti-murder laws are built) or some deranged sexist with some weird obsession with controlling women's bodies (Even though being pro-life has nothing to do with viewing women as lesser beings and thinking they shouldn't have rights and everything to do with the fact that a pro-life person doesn't believe a person's rights extend to killing another human being).

I'd like to hear your opinion on it in a more private setting tho. For obvious reasons
