Originally posted by AThousandYoungI agree to an extent. I'm sick of Christian lobbyists attempting to criminalise abortion. But in my country, Australia, it was mainly Christian agitation in the courts that gave impetus to the recognition of Aboriginal land rights, which had been appallingly neglected. So on one hand I dislike the arrogance of Christianity's influence over legislation, but on the other I think its necassary.
Their arrogant need to force others to do what they think is "moral" via legislation.
Originally posted by AThousandYoungSure they do. Libertarians generally support laws against those who initiate violence against others.
Not true. Libertarians don't.
In any case, 1) we're discussing Christian faults and 2) it's mostly Christians doing it in the USA.
Your point 2) is flat-out wrong. You're ignoring groups like the ACLU that push hard for more secularly-slanted laws.

But are there not other threads in this forum such as "the worst thing about Muslins, the worst thing about Jews, the worst thing about religions and even the worst thing about this forum"?
