Most of the out-of-touch weirdo stances that religious/right winger types tend to harbor (being vehemently pro-life with 0 exceptions and 0 regard for the child's quality of life post-birth, following CLEARLY made-up religious texts that they, on average, don't even read themselves and then back putting their churches interpretation of its rules into state laws etc etc) I think stems from their own individual fear of death (and lack of control in general, motivation for why they compensate by controlling women as a class ("won't somebody think of muh lineage!?!"))
I think/would hope that if death were a more frankly discussed/observed topic in the US, over time the fear that drives people to the religious right would lose steam (at least a little bit🤷♀️)
#there's other factors that shape ones politics sure but the fear of death is the NUMBER ONE DRIVING FORCE behind religious extremism#I'll tell ya that one for free lmao#''good news--skydaddy is real!! and death isn't!! :) and you'll be able to go to the Good place after death too :D!!......#....only if you follow every and all laws that the ruling class want you to obey :) because if you don't skydaddy will TORTURE YOU#FOR ETERNITY#just like he'll torture our heathen neighboring enemies that hog all the good land/resources that the ruling class really really want#(skydaddy totallyyy promised us those things and wants us to kill them don't worry)#''#so I guess what I'm really saying is if the religious were able to accept their own fears of death and quit coping#maybe religion rates would fall and the reductive politics stemming from them would be seen for the controlling bullshit they are#lmao let a girl dream#at a bar rn sorry if it's giving 2008 reddit r/atheism lmaooooooooo let a girl sperg while her friends are late why don't you
