    Okay, how about a set of non-religious rules of ethics, or at least something all major religious groups can agree upon?

    Don’t steal, don’t lie, don’t murder/use violence, don’t make any unwanted sexual advances, those seem general enough that everyone should be able to agree, no?

        Oh in that case, why ever try to improve anything? History shows us some asshole is just gonna come along and mess it up anyways. Perhaps the founding fathers should have just paid their stupid tea tax and stayed subject to the British crown.

            Why would you say something this stupid when you could have just said nothing at all?

              I’m glad you’re asking yourself that. It’s important to reflect on who you present yourself as to other people. Personal growth is important.

              I wish you the best. Good luck.
