2019-10-24 20:31:43 UTC  

Sophie is making the point that religious fundies can be found anywhere, and since they are uneducated, we should not have them represent the religion or the other followers of said religion.

2019-10-24 20:31:44 UTC  

Do you have a response?

2019-10-24 20:31:52 UTC

2019-10-24 20:31:58 UTC  

No, lol.

2019-10-24 20:32:19 UTC  

That religious fundamentalist nations are less prosperous than pluralistic nations

2019-10-24 20:32:26 UTC  

How so?

2019-10-24 20:32:26 UTC  

Oh.

2019-10-24 20:32:31 UTC  

I agree.

2019-10-24 20:32:32 UTC  

The happiest and most prosperous nations are pluralist

2019-10-24 20:32:45 UTC  

That is based on progressive standards

2019-10-24 20:32:52 UTC  

"happiest"

2019-10-24 20:32:57 UTC  

china is so unprosperous guys, the iron fist of their one party system and lack of religious diversity is really tearing up the place

2019-10-24 20:32:59 UTC  

PCPPP and UNQOLI

2019-10-24 20:33:01 UTC  

Nah, there are objective factors that define happiness.

2019-10-24 20:33:05 UTC  

they're so unhappy with how successful they are I bet

2019-10-24 20:33:08 UTC  

If you read "Why Nations Fail", you'll see why pluralistic nations are more economically prosperous.

2019-10-24 20:33:10 UTC  

yes, 40% suicide rate in athiest LGBTQ scum are happy and prosperous

2019-10-24 20:33:28 UTC  

Now you're taking her idea too far.

2019-10-24 20:33:29 UTC  

@Deleted User Based on progressive standards, Progressive nations are doing better than everyone else

2019-10-24 20:33:36 UTC  

correlation does not imply causation.

2019-10-24 20:33:43 UTC  

No, have you read the book?

2019-10-24 20:33:48 UTC  

It's not based on progressive standards.

2019-10-24 20:33:50 UTC  

So PCPPP is a progressive standard?

2019-10-24 20:33:54 UTC  

^

2019-10-24 20:33:55 UTC  

Or do you not know what that means

2019-10-24 20:33:59 UTC  

How is "economically prosperous" based on progressive standards?

2019-10-24 20:34:07 UTC  

Would love to know

2019-10-24 20:34:43 UTC  

In WNF, they explain that it's hardly because of culture or geography that nations fail, but because of their political institutions.
