Non-Christians have had their day.

Because of the current dismal situation the pendulum is swinging back to a Theocracy with no separation between the Christian church and government.

And we feel that pendulum is swinging full force towards Apostasy, which you probably think is a good thing. What Christians know is that it is supposed to happen this way...it is predicted that there will be a great falling away from God where only True Christians will remain faithful to Christ. And those are the ones who will be saved...whose souls do not die. Those Christians who follow God's laws here on earth, will be the ones who will continue to follow Him after our bodies die.

What Christians have learned to do over the centuries is to "wait"...and live their lives as right and good as possible - according to the laws that God has designed for us - until the end of humanity happens, as is also predicted in our Bible.

If this is how the country is supposed to go - away from God - then we will sit patiently and wait for what will come after that. True Christians - the ones you think don't exist because they are a silent majority - know how this ends.

Non-Christians have their own set of beliefs, and that's fine. That is what we call their "free will" - a gift that God has given to all of us - to choose how we live out our lives.

It might just be that there are so many Christians in the world that you feel "pressured" by them by their mere existence in numbers? If it looks like we are trying to "stop" what we consider sinful behavior, it's because we feel it is the right thing to do. Some of us have more passion about that than others...

No, Nimrod, these sort of things we're never sanctioned, giving special rights, when Christianity reigned equally in both political parties. We were a much better people and nation back then. We're heading towards becoming a 3rd world s**thole at warp speed being lead there INTENTIONALLY by the Marxist Left.

The pendulum has swung full force towards Apostasy.

It will now swing back to Theocracy as soon as Project 2025 can be implemented.

Yes, when religion is used to justify a Supreme Court ruling that is what my crystal ball tells me.

Nimrod, the Pendulum is stuck in the Left's apostasy. We never had or wanted a theocracy; we had perfect balance until atheistic cultural Marxism intervened.

For discussion purposes how do you see non Christians forcing their values on Christian?

One example of many:

Gay couples targeting Christian owned businesses, suing them in state courts for violating their civil rights,
and winning enough in financial awards to shut down the businesses.

Okay folks,

Remember that it was God that ended s***ery through His Son, Jesus Christ. Even in this country, the Negro was freed by the Quakers. And the check written to the Negros was cashed by another Christian, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Who spoke out against black nationalists.

With God, as St Thomas Aquinas had said, there is freedom, without God there is only s***ery. And that s***ery is not of the law or those who enforce the law, but the giving in to the animal nature of man, or as Christ said, "the father of the world" which He referred to as the devil. Therefore, according to natural law, when a species, such as human, asks outside of his function in the universe, he is then ens***ed by his animal, or worldly desires.

It is that, not religion, not politics, not money, but free will---the ability to revolt against God and the Devil. Free will, is the reason, and only in God can freewill flourish.

Not your Supreme Court, none of your damn business, and SCOTUS has made many rulings on religious freedom. May I suggest a suitable use for your crystal ball?

And SCOTUS has made mistakes before, I refer to the Dred Scott decision in 1858, which fueled the civil war in 1860.

So, you see the world in a crystal ball, do ya?
If you paid for your glass oracle, you got s**mmed.
You should have invested in snake oil, something you can rub on your skull to get rid of all those hypocritical warts.

How does serving a person who is different infringing on a Christian’s rights.

Sounds similar to the Jim Crow laws.
