Quebec will now ban street prayers as the Coalition Avenir Québec (CAQ) “super-minister” of identity, Jean-François Roberge, has just passed his bill to strengthen secularism.
I just don’t think that being right makes you more moral or compassionate. Those are separate vectors, there’s no useful kind/religious axis we can map here.
I get that you’re very sure you’re right. But you’re one person. If I was going to choose to believe things based on how many people were very sure they are right, I’d still be Christian.
I left the church because I saw no evidence it made people better. I see no evidence that any other religion or lack of one does either. It just changes the excuses people use to be cruel to each other.
Putting aside how dumb of a statement that is, will the state be mandating homes and forcing people into them? If they have to do that just to accommodate my private beliefs, how is that different than a prayer room in public? Should I be arrested if I’m homeless by choice or want to live out of a tent in the woods?
Just skip the argument to state enforced atheism and don’t pretend this line of thought is rational and secular.
There wont be homeless people if only atheists existed
There are enough of us that if we cared to we could solve it. We don’t.
The main problem is amoguses that support our enemies out of ignorance

I mean hypothetical world if everyone was smart enough to not believe at least everything. If course my statement is close to impossible

Nobody told you about forcing someone to become atheist. I don’t want to waste time on such stupid people like you. Blocked
A well reasoned and logical reply. Completely air tight argument. We’ve got an enlightened free thinker over here!
Most homeless have mental health problems, its not really an issue of acquiring a house but them ripping out the pipes to buy drugs.
