And then the other side frames the issue as us wanting to “force religion on people.”
We do need to be able to answer the inevitable questions with good theology. Does this mean we want to ban the marriage of Buddhists, for example.
That's an argument based on a false premise which I've successfully debunked many times.
ISIS wants to force their religion on people.
Christians in America want their rights restored so that other groups don't impose their secular views upon them and force them to be active participants in an act they deem morally objectionable.
But then, Liberals don't understand moral arguments because they don't have any morals.
