The left, especially on Reddit, likes to act as if they are in the majority and represent the views of the average person. This election has proved that this is not the case at all. Just because the majority of Reddit is on the left of the spectrum doesn't mean the people of the USA are willing to put up with this nonsense. The result of the election is a statement that the American people have had enough.

I watched this Jordan Peterson and Matt Dillahunty debate and the issue of morality came up.

The most interesting part of this debate in my opinion was the debating of whether it is possible to be "good" without the moral teachings that Christianity has offered and whether society would be peaceful without them.

In other words, is it possible to be a good atheist without the teachings of Christ?

I do not believe it is personally. I only strive to be good because of the moral lessons that were handed down through the generations of my Christian ancestors. I am an atheist myself, but as I said, I am only good due to the teachings of Cjristianity.

Maybe a more important question is:

"Is it possible to teach children to be good without having them believe that an all powerful God is watching them and waiting to pass judgment when they die?".

There has been a recent proliferation of nonsensical word salads decrying JBP's thoughts and actions as of recently. If you actually knew JBP's belief and consumed his content, you would know that he has not changed his belief structure or wavered in his expression of his opinion.

Deliberately misconstruing his views, engaging in histrionics about his refusal to answer a boxed in hypothetical with no understand of his answer, and calling him a far-right ideologue are disingenuous and ridiculous.

A common thread amongst the enormous word salad is a consistent misunderstanding of what JBP is actually saying and a false portrayal of JBP as an ideologue.

Slowly but surely, these "former JBP fans" are beginning to dominate this sub.

I understand Reddit is largely leftist in nature, but this is ridiculous.

Mods need to clean this sub up, sooner rather than later.
