@danny__kruger When a society abandons the idea that all people are created in the image and likeness of God, a hierarchical notion of human worth becomes inevitable. Euthanasia was common in the pagan world for this reason. It is re-emerging as the West re-pagansises.

The pseudo-liturgical "trans day of visibility" falls on Easter Sunday this year. It is impossible for the state to be morally neutral. It will take a stance. Historically, the UK took a Christian one. Now, wokeism is the new public religion.

Slavery was a human universal. It's banning began in one place—the Christian West. The belief that every person is created in the image of God—and so no person can be "owned" like an object—motivated the banning of slavery. We discard this worldview at our peril.

Never compromise on the truth. Convicted Christians converted and built the West. Conviction so strong they were willing to, and many did, die for it. Only the same sort of Christian conviction can re-convert and re-build the West. Compromise with the world is unattractive.
