Isn’t the US supposed to be secular though?

Anti sodomy laws?

Uh. Who said anything about the US? Your country isn't US, is it?
That's why animals (and us) lick their wounds. A little spit can make a lot of things feel much better.
Umm this is in the North American politics section. I literally spoke of the R v W decision (which is specific to US law) and asked about the potential of the revival of the anti sodomy laws specifically in the US in my OP.
Did you happen to misread my question posed?
Sadly, I can't disagree.
So obviously this has been hinted at a great deal since the infamous R v W decision.
Now not being American I won’t pretend to understand how that would work. Just that from the outside looking in, it looks like the US is vying to be the most archaic and backwards modern civilisation in modern history.
Sorry.
That’s just how it looks on the world stage.
Now I’m hearing that many of the US states are going to try to reinforce anti sodomy laws.
Is that seriously what you guys want?
Have at it, guys. Chat, discuss and debate about it.
I’m just thankful that my country actually has some freedom.
They used to have anti-sodomy laws still on the books in my state. I think they repealed them at some point in the past 20-30 years or so. They weren't enforced, as far as I know. Trying to enforce anti-sodomy laws would likely be a real pain in the butt.
Really? You know that much about other gods, do you?
What, do you go to their policy conferences on a regular basis?
Some look at China as a model for how to monitor people and the Taliban for how to insist on an extremely evil view of religion and combine the two.
There's already one "justice" who wants to get rid of that right along with the right to birth control. Unless something changes, that number will grow.
Not according to the governor of Florida and a potential presidential candidate along with a number of theocrats in the "republican" party.
Ummm....odd turn of phrase, there, don't you think?

Our governance is supposed to be.
From whom? There is enough tragedy proliferating around us. I for one have no need for unsubstantiated nonsense.
This is from my own country’s news.
Just saying
Texas's top lawman floats recriminalising sex between men in the state
If the government doesn't revolve around what my Gods want, it shouldn't revolve around what other people's Gods want, either.
Quite frankly, my Gods have bigger fish to fry than worrying about where folks put their willies.

The US military had anti-sodomy in the Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ) until like the last 5 years.
No of course not
But given the overall context, US law was at the very least, entirely relevant
Hence my question of secularism.
But okay, in your country, is the federal law governed by religion?

Hmmm. Isn't this a rule violation SomeRandom?

I don't really get into politics.
What they do, they do. It's their stage, and they are just being willing... or unwilling puppets.
