I think there are American lawmakers that would recreate this law, and a surprising number of citizens that would support it, if they were smart enough to word it in a way that kept it constitutional. Religious freedom has NEVER been a Christian idea.

Just imagine what western society sacrificed - physical and mental health, healthy relationships, healthy sexuality - all for the sake of a philosophy.
After reading this book, I now understand why so many Christians fear history, and how so many Christians actively choose ignorance to their own religious heritage. The history, the facts, the truth is not pretty. It is reminiscent of other regions‘ extremists we now refer to terrorists.
What a tragic ending, and loss, for every single person on this planet.

This is interesting. I don‘t know if they purposely did this to give themselves deniability, or if it was just the way it happened. Nixey suggests it was on purpose because the term “Christian” was just too disturbing for them because of the actions perpetrated in its name.
