For the fundamentalists, sure. I am reluctant to say all Christians are like that. The comfort religion gives cannot be underestimated.
My issue is when thy say stuff like above, as in it’s a necessity to have a Christian founding for morality. Can Christianity apply a moral code for some? Sure, but it’s not a necessity. An atheist or anyone can easily form an argument for why murder is wrong without God. It would be worrying if you can’t, because it displays a lack of empathy and understanding of how actions impact others. This is the basis of most moral systems, dating back longer than 2000 years. I have nothing against people basing their life around the Bible; I do when they claim it’s a necessity for others and make out that it’s the only thing needed, and without it we’d be murderers.
The point in this is that bpg often makes out Christian belief is a necessity for morality, yet can’t see how referring to people as invaders or undertaking an invasion could be considered a harmful take, which violates another’s moral system. It’s a bit rich to say that atheists cannot comprehend how murder could be wrong without Christianity while refusing to understand why an atheist might consider it wrong to refer to people in such a manner. Obviously the former is of a worse magnitude, but that’s not the point.
