The thread is more than the opening line.

Unrelenting drive to authoritarianism. some 40 years in the making.
I think the main reason religious people want to run governments , is that it does away with the pesky consent of the governed, thing. Much better to get people to pledge their allegiance to a belief system that does not require any logical reasoning of the governed.

You put yourself above others and look down on everyone else.

You put yourself above others and look down on everyone else.
And you always assume and don't let anyone get in your way of that.

When was the last time you submitted yourself to God instead of just assuming and using him for your own selfish ends?

Well, to be honest, being 'above' certain others in these threads isn't a hard thing to do, in fact it's often unavoidable, and Suzianne often has a long way to look down.

Yes, those who look down on others often feel superior.

Give specific examples instead of saying things that are so vague they cannot be confirmed or denied.

About religious folk running government in the image of their religion?
