    But isn’t this just democracy in action? The mandate of the people? If a majority vote for these principles then it must become the law of land.

    The fact of the matter is that the fanatical Christians want results more than the left does. While we’re on here, uselessly upvoting and downvoting, they’re organizing their communities to achieve real world results. And except for a few notable characters, they’re playing by the rules of the game.

        Yes. We’ll be ruled by a minority (Christian nationalists) because we think that downvoting on social media is sufficient participation in politics.

      Well, they’d have to have a constitutional amendment to remove separation of church and state for one thing. For another, the view that xtianity is something that needs to be inflicted on others is a minority view. Even if it was a majority one, there are laws to protect the minority view on things like this, since we have freedom of and freedom from religion.
