Without God would also be without Islam. I would look forward to that.

Is anyone else right-leaning to anarchistic that is an unbeliever?

PBuck0145 comments on Nov 27, 2018:

To the regressive leftists, who are hijacking the liberal narrative, anyone who does not subscribe to their group-think is considered right-wing. We need to re-establish classical, egalitarian, liberal capitalism.

We are all born Atheist ?

PBuck0145 comments on Jul 22, 2018:

Incorrect. We are born with one god, which is usually our mother. As the fallibility of this god becomes evident, the reverence can be re-directed by indoctrination towards a mystical entity. (Un)fortunately, I happen to retain vivid memories of my very early infancy.

Is it OK to be racist against white people?

Many identify as classical liberal, and reluctantly vote GOP to avoid supporting regressive leftism. The Democrats need to get their act together.

I am a death-row executioner

PBuck0145 comments on Oct 23, 2020:

A civilized society will never IMPOSE the death penalty. Notwithstanding, human dignity, even that of a murderer or a rapist, is worth preserving. Any inmate should have the RIGHT to demand death in lieu of serving the remainder of his/her sentence. Death by nitrogen asphyxiation is painless, quick, effective and simple to perform.

Universal Basic Income(in the near future)? And why you feel this way

PBuck0145 comments on Sep 18, 2018:

Universal Basic Income, combined with a Universal Flat Income Tax, would eliminate poverty without destroying entrepreneurship or incentive to work. It would eliminate the need for minimum wage legislation, making entry level employment more available for young people, who need on the job experience to improve their lot in life. UBI would also eliminate the need for most financial welfare programs. http://www.parncutt.org/BIFT2.html

PBuck0145 comments on Jun 27, 2018:

I am a "classical liberal" atheist. I recognize that liberalism has been hijacked by the regressive leftists. Therefore, I support many of the same issues which are traditionally considered to be conservative. Until the "liberal" left recognizes and rejects regressive leftism, many free-thinking rational liberals will continue (reluctantly) to support the conservative agenda.

PBuck0145 comments on Jul 27, 2018:

An extraterrestrial who objectively observed mankind's effect on the planet would not value "human dignity". Cherishing human dignity is a subjective DECISION, not a matter of faith. Given society's current state and direction, I am ambivalent about such a decision.

It is sad to see how many sheeple on this site appear to support the subversion of Britain's sovereignty by the unelected European Commission. Initially, Edward Heath defrauded Britain into joining the EEC, the first major step towards globalism and the New World Order. Theresa May continues to perpetuate the fraud, with her unabashed appeasement of the E.U. Britain should simply withdraw from the E.U. and revert to WTO regulations. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bRwmW4BHbVM
