and we killed like 13 people over 40 years

2019-04-26 02:13:42 UTC  

anyway offtopic

2019-04-26 02:13:44 UTC  

I don't think my state has the death penalty.

2019-04-26 02:13:46 UTC  

Not sure though.

2019-04-26 02:13:53 UTC  

the philosophy of neutrality is a lack of moral

2019-04-26 02:13:56 UTC  

HOWEVER

2019-04-26 02:13:59 UTC  

if you're seeking neutral as in balance

2019-04-26 02:14:02 UTC  

then pragmatic is a better term to use

2019-04-26 02:14:40 UTC  

The way I view it, when making a decision I act as an atheist simply because when you let your religion influence that, it can cloud the results.

2019-04-26 02:14:55 UTC  

For example, if there was a vote on state religion,

2019-04-26 02:15:00 UTC  

You let your lack of religion influence that as well

2019-04-26 02:15:00 UTC  

On one hand I practice my religion,

2019-04-26 02:15:08 UTC  

However I would act as an atheist in that moment.

2019-04-26 02:15:13 UTC  

And vote for no state religion.

2019-04-26 02:15:13 UTC  

ergo throw away your morals and become based

2019-04-26 02:15:19 UTC  

If state religion allows everyone to be happier

2019-04-26 02:15:21 UTC  

then do it

2019-04-26 02:15:28 UTC  

if banning a state religion allows everybody to be happier than u do it

2019-04-26 02:15:47 UTC  

Doesn't seem like a wise thing to me.

2019-04-26 02:15:49 UTC  

you dont need to be an atheist or religious person to know what is based

2019-04-26 02:15:51 UTC  

State religions,

2019-04-26 02:15:57 UTC  

Historically lead to really fucked up stuff.

2019-04-26 02:16:05 UTC  

Taken out of context.

2019-04-26 02:16:22 UTC  

If you take Islam from the 1000s and apply it today's standard

2019-04-26 02:16:27 UTC  

"holy shit, TAXES ON NON-MUSLIMS?"

2019-04-26 02:16:30 UTC  

"WHAT THE FUCK GUYS"

2019-04-26 02:16:40 UTC  

"WHAT??? PUBLIC STONING ON SINFUL PEOPLE?"

2019-04-26 02:16:56 UTC  

Yeah, so under religious law that happened.

2019-04-26 02:17:01 UTC  

Like Plato once said, different forms of government exist on different forms of context.

2019-04-26 02:17:06 UTC  

And under modern religious law Saudi Arabia still hangs gay people.

2019-04-26 02:17:16 UTC  

And under religious law, typically bad things happen.

2019-04-26 02:17:26 UTC  

Only because our context change.

2019-04-26 02:17:28 UTC  

I would suggest culture based governments,

2019-04-26 02:17:32 UTC  

Not religious based governments.

2019-04-26 02:17:43 UTC  

those are called ideologically-based government

2019-04-26 02:17:48 UTC  

and i rather not have another hitler or stalin again

2019-04-26 02:17:54 UTC  

Not what I mean.

2019-04-26 02:17:55 UTC  

Stalin was too based for his country

2019-04-26 02:17:59 UTC  

Basically cultures function different.

2019-04-26 02:18:01 UTC  

For example,

2019-04-26 02:18:03 UTC  

Among Europeans,
