Which holy wars are the Christian right encouraging. And which party or form of government does not engage in wars?

and also oppress the personal freedoms of people who don’t follow their beliefs in the name of their god...

Which personal freedoms of whom have the Christian right oppressed?

Abortion? Abortion is philosophically repugnant to Christians and other religions, left or right, to various atheists, to people of all stripes. There is a great debate on whether abortion denies the right to life, and, like all political issues, can be decided at the ballot box. If voting is oppression, then we all oppress each other.

Not baking a gay cake? That does not oppress the right of gays to have a gay cake. Quite the opposite, forcing some to bake a cake they don't want to bake is oppressing many of the bakers' rights.


that’s just my take on it. Our government should be 100% neutral on anything to do with any religion.

And yet it is imposing on religious rights.
