“This is how we should order our lives together,” he said. “And frankly, yes, we are going to impose it upon you. If you don’t like it, I’m sorry, but this is good and right and just if it lines up with God’s standards, and I am going to enforce my morality on you in as much as our morality is God’s morality.”

“You should always check yourselves,” he continued. “Do I believe what God believes? Am I defending what God says is good?”

“And if it is, then you should have the courage to say, ‘This is how we’re going to run our town, this is how we’re going to run our county, this is how we’re going to run our state, and this is how we should run the United States of America by legislating the morality that we can find in the Bible.'”

    Yeah, we know! The Christian Right is dead-set on rolling back the rights of the women, same-sex couples, LGBTQ kids, and other minority groups. Think I’m exaggerating? Think of the Dobbs decision.

      No I don’t think anyone here will think you’re exaggerating because they’ve literally been doing all that since they got back in power. 😫
