You believe in promoting traditional moral values, strong family units, and conservative policies to create a stable and prosperous society rooted in faith.
The "Christian Right" is a term used to describe a broad and diverse coalition of groups primarily within the United States, but also in other parts of the world, that advocate for a specific set of religious, social, and political beliefs. These groups are predominantly conservative and Christian, and they seek to influence politics and society based on their interpretation of biblical teachings.
The Christian Right emerged in the late 20th century, particularly in the United States, as a response to a series of social and cultural changes, including the civil rights moveme…

What is your approach to maintaining friendships with those who hold conservative or liberal beliefs contrary to yours?
@9JL2C3R2yrs2Y
I believe people can resonate with the beliefs they have and not be judged about it. This is the Land of the Compromise and we often forget it.
@9JL5Z9N2yrs2Y
Peoples beliefs should not influence who they are as a person. Many times people use their political beliefs to determine their personality.
@NameIGuessLolSocialist 2yrs2Y
There are quite a few studies out there that show correlations between personality traits and political beliefs. Of course, I wouldn't reject someone because of their political views alone, as every individual will be different, but I think it'd be easy to spot a fascist in most cases.

While I do believe that we generally shouldn't judge others and that it is possible to be cordial with people regardless of their political beliefs, I think that some people's views lack morality and can be threatening to others. Because of this, I don't think it's possible for everyone to be civil with those that have differing opinions than them, making it more difficult to create or maintain those relationships.

The Christian religion is essential to understand why the US Government is designed the way it is designed. And if it played a higher role in the curriculum, students of other faiths may learn to respect the Christian religion. It would allow play into what was intended by John Adams and Thomas Jefferson were trying to do with our government.

What implications does having leaders with strong religious convictions have on the diversity and inclusivity of society?
@9JFCRFT2yrs2Y
As long as what people are doing doesn’t hurt anyone else physically or isn’t intentionally attacking someone emotionally then you can be and do whatever you want when someone in power makes their own beliefs apart of the land they are trying to run, I believe it puts people who don’t follow the same beliefs in a rough spot and gives certain people with the same beliefs a big head.

Leaders with strong religious convictions, to the point that those convictions have a very real possibility of affecting policy, should not exist whatsoever in the United States Government. Those kinds of leaders will drastically and negatively affect our society's progress on diversity and inclusion of peoples.

Can you describe a moment where cultural or religious traditions made a positive impact on your personal development?
@9KN8LFC2yrs2Y
As a muslim, Islam has truly helped me be the person I've wanted to be. It is truly a religion that disciplines one to succeed in this world and the hereafter. Although my opinion is strong on Islam, I cannot change the opinions of others but I believe it is important for people to explore other religions.

How would you feel if certain religious holidays became national holidays, regardless of your personal faith?
@9JFB8XBWomen’s Equality2yrs2Y
@9JFB23W2yrs2Y
Given the seperation between church and state, prioritizing one religion over another is harmful. Instead of eliminating national holidays expanding the amount of holidays would provide a better work life balance. Even if you don't subscribe to any religous beliefs the time is free for the person to spend it.

How might your perspective on social issues be different if you were raised with an opposing set of beliefs?

they might not go with your religon because you where raised to do different things or believe different things

If your political ideals are based solely on your religious views, then its probably more difficult for you to be reasoned with. Religion exists to control the masses with fear, and the effect is "this is bad because my religion says so" not "this is bad because its its just plain wrong and stupid."

@jsimicConstitution2yrs2Y
Do it.
Creationism (microevolution) and (general) evolution are both theories on the origins and processes of life.
Creationism is more theocentric and evolution is more naturalistic, both are scientific.
Both agree on the minimum age of the earth, but disagree on the maximum.
Both agree on the diversity of life, but disagree on the ancestry.
Both have access to the same rocks and bones, but disagree on the origins and process.
To call creationism hogwash is to push the religious doctrine of naturalism.

...are you familiar with world history? We've seen how this goes, we see it happening even now in countries under Sharia law. It's bad. America was literally founded on the concept of the separation of church and state. Religion and politics get on like gasoline and matches, frequently with similar results.
