    And progress is something that happens, to act like it doesn't is to ignore reality.
    You are correct, if I had kept ignoring God I would have never progressed. Your reality is different than mine.

    It is important that there is pure semen in order to inseminate the 72 virgins that Mister D thinks he will encounter in heaven.

    Why? Is there a reason you need to know what my opinion of secular values are? It's an attempt to give everyone equal rights--perfect equality is not possible, but it's an attempt.

    They're merely selective. Well, ok, there are some that have a reconstructionist dominionist view of history, but they're to be taken with a grain of salt on such issues, just as we shouldn't take Pat Robertson or Alex Jones seriously on conspiracy theories.
