    You can certainly hamfist Christianity into supporting whatever political opinion you want, as is Christian tradition.

    Generally I don’t like supernatural beliefs and the idea of a god makes me throw up but you do you.

      Please ignore me if you think my question is uncalled-for, but your answer surprises me. I get agnosticism and atheism from a philosophical point of view, even if philosophically I stand in the theist side. I get the feeling of disgust when one studies history and actuality of religions, even if I think it’s kind of a limited, one-sided view. But disgust for the mere idea of the existence of God seems… a bit extreme. What did you mean?

        If there is a god it’s malevolent or indifference to humanity.

        Either way it’s not worth worshipping.

        Plus as I mentioned before, I hate supernatural thinking, and I find it harder to trust in people who base their beliefs on the supernatural.

        You never know when some random piece of scripture short circuits the brain of an otherwise reasonable person into thinking abortion is evil or that LGBT people are the antichrist.
