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 does 'freedom of speech' mean to you in the context of religious and moral debates?
@9KDNX653mos3MO
You are allowed to say you are Christian, and have certain moral beliefs, however other people have the right to disagree and live their lives how they want, not how someone else wants.
@9KJZS4T2mos2MO
Everyone is entitled to believe as they choose and shouldn’t be forced to convert to other religions
@9KDP4LN3mos3MO
Any person has the right to believe what they believe and advertise what they believe if they see fit.
@9KDP5583mos3MO
Others should be allowed to show their religion without the worry of being disregarded or treated unfairly, just because others do not agree.
@9KDP9DY3mos3MO
I am of the mind that religion being used as a moral basis for all moral judgement regardless of religious beliefs is foolish and has historically lead to persecution, discrimination, and murder.

What is your approach to maintaining friendships with those who hold conservative or liberal beliefs contrary to yours?
@9JL2C3R3mos3MO
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.
@9JL5Z9N3mos3MO
Peoples beliefs should not influence who they are as a person. Many times people use their political beliefs to determine their personality.
@9JNJRKM3mos3MO
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.
@9JL6JZ73mos3MO
Your views should not keep you from being friendly and kind. You don't have to agree, but you don't have to be rude about it
@9JL2M923mos3MO
I believe its better to surround yourself with those who not only think alike because we sometimes need to hear and see things from a different perspective.
@9JPWK6J 3mos3MO
I mean like bro you aint the only opinion out there who knows maybe you change your opinion if you surround yourself with peeps who don't have the same opinion as you :(

A theocracy is against the teachings of the church and is against the Constitution

What would change in our classrooms if religion played a larger role in the curriculum?
@9JGSL7N4mos4MO
People could be treated differently and not everyone practices the same religion.
@9JGYSK44mos4MO
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.
@9JHZMC84mos4MO
not every child is grown up with the same religion and some people have decided on a different rebellion from the one that are consided a social norm
@9JJ2MH24mos4MO
For some people religion can provide a lot of restrictions, while for others guidance, with that being said not everyone is the same individual so no everyone can be expected to follow it, it would be indoctrination and torture
@9JGSZ99 4mos4MO
What would change in our classrooms if religion played a larger role in the curriculum, would be that more children have the opportunity to learn about God and be saved.
@9JJ45FY4mos4MO
Children should not be forced to be exposed to the idea that they need to be “saved” or that their own/ familial ideas are wrong.
@9JGSZMW4mos4MO
I don't think people would really care, you can have peace but not agree with someone's religion. You don't have to fight.
@9JGRX7L 4mos4MO
People would fight and get into arguments. Not good for the curriculum
@ISIDEWITH4mos4MO
What implications does having leaders with strong religious convictions have on the diversity and inclusivity of society?
@9JFCRFT4mos4MO
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.
@9JFHZVV4mos4MO
Some people might vote for someone primarily because of their religious beliefs. The person that they voted for might have opposite views on topics that the voter doesn't agree with, but they got voted for because of their personal belief.
@9JFC573Republican4mos4MO
I think it depends on whether that person is actively trying to push their beliefs onto society or if they are trying to use their beliefs and morals to improve the state of living and acceptance in society.
@9JFC44F4mos4MO
America is a place where all should practice their religions freely.
@9JFBZ6N4mos4MO
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.
@ISIDEWITH3mos3MO
What does it take to create an inclusive community that values different perspectives on religion and morality?
@9KNGCJH 2mos2MO
9 times out of 10, Christians such as myself will say nothing to a gay individual. The Bible tells us that we shouldn't judge anyone, rather pray for them and love them. Hate the sin, love the individual.
@9KNJ3D52mos2MO
To create and grow an inclusive community only takes a few people to start. Having just two people can spread popularity and belief to any individual which can grow religious values.
@9KNG5M42mos2MO
It takes the freedom of religion and the freedom of speech.
@9KNFWZJ2mos2MO
Religion does not have a place in politics. Political action should be secular, religion should remain a guaranteed right in private life.
@ISIDEWITH4mos4MO
Can you describe a moment where cultural or religious traditions made a positive impact on your personal development?
@9KN6XZL2mos2MO
I grew up in the church of jesus christ of latter day saints and it has always brought me joy
@9KNN56H2mos2MO
a few people I know left the church and don't like it and I can see a big difference in their lives then people who go to church, the church always strengthen me to be a better person and be myself and make good choices that will make my future.
@9KN8LFC2mos2MO
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.
@9KN74KG2mos2MO
I respect any group that supports freedom of religion.
@9KN6LFZ2mos2MO
It made a positive personal development on me because I got more calm and felt better as a person following the way of Jesus Christ. It made me a better person towards my family and friends and I am still working on it.
@ISIDEWITH4mos4MO
How would you feel if certain religious holidays became national holidays, regardless of your personal faith?
@9JFB23W4mos4MO
I would enjoy my day off and mind my business. I would thank them for giving me a day off
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.
@9JFB8XBWomen’s Equality4mos4MO
i think that students should just have some days off to be able to relax not based on any holidays
@9JGMGC6 4mos4MO
Unless these certain religious holidays means every holiday that is celebrated by the masses. Otherwise our religious rights are being violated.
@9JFBCMKRepublican4mos4MO
I think that it would be awesome. I am a Christian myself so those rights would be amazing.
@9JFBB9V4mos4MO
I don’t think religious holidays should become national holidays. People can celebrate these days without it being a nation holiday, plus get time off from school or work if they celebrate.
