Time will tell. I am quite comfortable with the future my worldview will create. Quote | …and the way you have been arguing does not speak well for the sort of worldview you have endorsed.
|
You are entitled to your opinion. Unfortunately for you, my worldview is supported by more people than yours is. Quote | What is frightening is that you sense the trend of the times is such that you would not meet severe social censure for speaking like that.
|
We all risk social censure. Quote | That points to what you mean by a thriving civilisation. I do not think that word means what you seem to think it does.

Less persecution, less judgmental Attitudes, and more acceptance of those different than us. Declining abortion rates. Declining rates of unwanted pregnancies. Tossing aside of the ridiculous social restrictions imposed on others by religion. Providing children with comprehensive information necessary for them to make informed decisions. No longer being able to hide behind “religious freedom” to discriminate against others. Increasing power to women and minorities. Reductions in violent crimes. Longer life expectancy. Reduced infant mortality. I’m sure there is more, but this should do for now. Quote | Ours is a suicidally sick civilisation by any reasonable standard. KF

I agree. That is why we are changing it for the better. You are welcome to come along for the ride or you can continue to sit on your front porch yelling at kids to get off your front lawn. |
