I’m an atheist, Christians do not have the monopoly on displaying empathy, understanding and decency. In fact, in America right now I’m seeing the opposite, overwhelmingly Republicans are using Christianity as a hammer to batter the poor, disadvantaged and vulnerable.

Athiests and agnostics don’t need to read a book to know how to be a decent person, nor do they need to be threatened with eternal damnation in order to do the right thing. I’m quite wary of people who are only “good” because “the Bible said so” or because “Hell is real.” 😟

Thank you 😊! I agree 💯. People who have to be threatened with hellfire to be decent people can stay far away. I enjoy being a nice person. Although I have a wicked temper. I don't abide well with injustices and will probably break a hip to fight it out. If you get along with me, I'll fight with you

Before I responded I wanted to check the Ten Commandments, ignoring the three about gods ego, I am quite certain that Trump has only obeyed one, Honour thy Father and thy Mother, I’m quite certain he’s broken the other six, though I don’t know if inciting to kill counts as Thou Shalt not Kill.
