Why are Republicans so accepting of Christian extremism that violates US values of freedom?

Also folks like Hegseth who tweeted support of his church leaders saying that the 19th amendment should be repealed and women should not be able to vote. Also against homosexuality.

And yet, Republicans will say Islam is incompatible with US culture for having submissive views toward women and homosexuality.

Seems like utter hypocrisy.

Shouldn't we espouse the US as a FREE country and condemn any religious extremism that would infringe on our personal freedoms?


Take your holy war back to the Old World we don't need yer' kind around here. No, I don't want to accommodate your beliefs or work at your businesses. More and more as society frays with "multiculturism" and your global corporations take away more and more of our traditions without replacing them, the more and more I like the de facto Christianity. For example, I enjoy Saturday and Sunday off. What do Capitalists do when they have Muslims working for them? They try to take away Sunday.

A question for you. Why can't you align your beliefs Friday vs. Sunday. Seems like a deep problem to me if it makes you upset to have Sunday off instead of Friday. I'm sorry I can't help you with that kind of delusion. At the end of the day I'm not Christian, but seriously why do I have to have some religious beliefs to get a day off work?

Like said at the beginning take your' holy war back where you came from we don't do that around here. Look at the middle east, Africa. Point me to an Islam country that is like wow, I want to live there as a non-believer. I can't think of one. Maybe Indonesia.

Maybe the billionaire pedophiles and sex trafficking lawyers that brought you here so you can butter their toast, maybe they like you, but...


Nobody is taking away Sat/Sun. A progressive stance is to actually move to a 4 day work week.

Also as someone who has worked in healthcare staffing, diverse religions/cultures are super helpful so that people can get their desires days and holidays off. Hospitals are 24/7 so people who are willing to work Saturdays or Sundays are quite helpful.


Corporations took away Saturday and Sunday long ago.

You are free to work for a business that suits your needs. If you want to work M-F, then choose a workplace that accommodates that. Don't be a first responder or work for a grocery store though and think you can get Sundays off.


Unless you're an evangelical Christian working in health care. They demand no Sunday working because of their religious beliefs. I know a nurse that will never work a Sunday, so others have to cover that day becasue of her "beliefs" that Sunday is the lord's day. Absurd.

And the abolitionists were fighting against Christians who were using Bible verses to justify slavery.

Were there ever any Islam abolitionists? Surely someone in Africa had a spine.

????I understand that Saturday was considered a work day until the late nineteenth century. Think about it. A lot of our economy was rural. All stores were usually closed on Sundays, though. People went to church.

That PP is a weirdo spammer who was active on an old thread who believes the world should be dictated by their loor experience with one Muslim boss that they seem to need therapy for. Meanwhile, I can counter with my healthcare sector experience trying to staff a hospital unit on Sundays with Christians who don't want to work. Thank goodness for cultural and religious diversity helping people to take desired days and holidays off while keeping society functioning

Those same Christians who don’t want to work on Sundays also often don’t want to provide legal and appropriate healthcare to patients that they don’t approve of.

3 day weekends would solve that problem. Friday, Saturday, and Sunday cover all the Abrahamic religions.
Regarding unions and the 2 day weekend, capitalists were convinced that a 40 hour week would result in a bunch of drunken lazy laborers.

When you value religious imposition over freedom, you go against the core value of freedom that makes America great.

Abolitionism was a Christian movement.



And Enslaving Africans in American colonies was a Christian practice, with Bible verses offered in support. Georgetown University owned slaves.
