"What keeps you from raping and murdering people??"
"I...have no desire to? Do you?"
The amount of religious people that earnestly answer "yes" to that retort confirms for me that religion is a poison
I lost a friend to religion because he said he couldn't work out his morals and couldn't figure out what his values should be.
What was happening is that his family were supporting Trump mindlessly, but he felt uncomfortable with it because he has a young daughter and feels really apprehensive about Trump’s history and allegations among other things.
So his solution? Turn to Christ. His family’s Church said that Trump is chosen by God, so he can now support Trump without a conflict of conscience as long as he "allows the Lord into his heart" so he turned from a cool guy who liked games and rock music and goth chicks to weird, straight-edge, "clean living" disciple of Christ who doesn't stop preaching and trying to convert everyone around him.
Yes, that was literally his reasoning and his solution, and he is fine with it. This is the average American median voter.
