We have to be OK with people voting based on the Bible but if someone said they base their vote on Harry Potter they’d be laughed at. Why is that 🤔

Uh, last I looked about half the country seems to put as much faith in Harry Potter as they do in any particular higher power - Christian or otherwise. And the trajectory of our country heading into the toilet reflects it.

Hahah, should I actually answer that seriously and I’m just gullible? Asking the difference between an objectively fictional book Harry Potter and the Bible which is not objectively fictional… is that enough to answer your question?

Fair, but I will say it only took me years just because of sustained interest of reading a lot of books within the same subject and within that historical timeframe. So my framework on it has just been steadily building. But it doesn’t have to be that long…the penguin history of Europe series wouldn’t take years. Some of the books within it are better than others though

If I can put up with people voting based on dumb social justice ideologies that were made up yesterday, you can deal with me espousing a two thousand year old worldview.

The whole premise of this discussion is based on a faulty presumption. Anyone has a right to vote based on whatever they believe in. You have to be ok with that right whether or not you agree with their view.

Okay OP, when it comes to abortion, what does Harry Potter say?

D3 - i think you are getting outside the topic. The topic is instead of using the Bible to vote, we should use Harry Potter books. You are now bringing other things up, not sure why they are relevant to the voting topic

Are you trying to say we just shouldn't vote?

Harry Potter has strong Christian themes and even J K Rowling herself has said Harry Potter takes inspiration from her Christian faith. Reading the books with this in mind it becomes pretty obvious.
