Biden has called for unity. What are we to unify around, and why?
Jesus says a nation divided against itself cannot stand. What if the division is part of his judgment along with the plague?Nevertheless, that was the opportunity for Trump to rally the nation to defeat the disease. Instead, well, we all know what he did and it's a shame.

What if it's not? What if it's up to us to achieve unity?Jesus says a nation divided against itself cannot stand. What if the division is part of his judgment along with the plague?
Like boys are boy, girls are girls, and masks don’t work?Unify around facts and science, because we are all subject to the same laws of nature.

Well, considering that he is also giving speeches calling conservatives white supremacists, it seems that we are supposed to unify around pushing the left agenda.
The Republican Party doesn’t deserve unity, and the Democrats are fools for offering it time after time. It was exactly what Obama tried when he was first elected and his reward was 8 years of obstruction, abuse and increasing extremism. The Democrats should play Republicans at their own game and do whatever is necessary. The idea that Republican voters are just one handshake away from moving back to reasonable thought was blown away when Trump got over 70,000,000 votes.
Likely true, unfortunately.
Many on the center left, the so-called liberals, do not understand the Right, especially the Religious Right, and make false presumptions about their character. How could they understand? Most of them live in ivory towers far remove from those people. It's easy to be concialiatory when it has no personal consequences to you.
Sadly the same is true for both sides. The Democrats needed a Bernie who could unite the working class from both parties and make the ivory tower liberals and the religious right an irrelevance for the period of that administration. Unfortunately they chose the same old centrist pick, who will have the backing of moderates, keep the working class divided and achieve very little.
I just think American liberals aren't really clued into the real mindset of the Religious Right, or how dangerous it is. There is no possible reconciliation with a mindset that engages in virtual jihad.
I remember Dick Cavitt interviewing Groucho Marx who said that he and his brothers were billed as German comedians until ‘17 when (due to rather severe anti-German sentiments at the time) got billed as “Yiddish comedians”.Covid has divided the nation. WWI and WWII unified it.
lol, what?Jesus says a nation divided against itself cannot stand. What if the division is part of his judgment along with the plague?
Lol. It is. So much for that unity.That's not science.
Unify around a successful approach to beating the pandemic - why? In order to save lives and get the lockdowns over and done and return to normal.A member sent this to me. “This is a time when the USA needs to be striving for unity, not divisiveness.”

Its more of a bare minimum pre-requisite. A good start.I'm not sure how agreement on a common set of facts, or around science, is supposed to produce social or political unity.
No, it's an important point. It is not necessary to reject the science of human psychosexuality in order to disagree with public policy based on it. Homosexual activity, for example, remains a Christian sin regardless of what science may determine about its nature and origins.Lol. It is. So much for that unity.
