Prohibiting sodomy does not force anyone to become Catholic.

You missed the point, which has nothing to do with Catholicism. Its about people forcing their religious viewpoints on others who do not agree with those specific morals

Do you believe in forcing your views on murder on people through the law? Then join the club . . .

Things like a prohibition against murder are present in societies regardless of other variables

Failed and irrelevant people often pick their favorite prejudice and bigot. It is the only thing they can find to give themselves worth.

For example, the President says he's a Christian. Therefore the OP believes President Obama is both ignorant and illiterate, and will misspell words to put in the President's mouth to prove it.

Anyone with a lick of sense would realize I support murder being illegal without even having to ask

Why do you want to force your morals on others?

In this case I am not but simply agreeing with society and human instinct. You can't really force something like this against the vast number of people who already agree.
 
I don't much like it, but whaddayagonnado? :shrug:

For a long time society agreed that sodomy was wrong and should be illegal as well.

Some societies, yes, but its not universal like people disliking murder

Which religious points of view are being forced on you?

So if 100 years from now the majority supported legalizing murder, would that be ok?

Very few, but it doesn't change the fact people seek to and try. For example, if I lived in Texas and my lady needed an abortion, well most of the motivation against that is religious in nature.

People make themselves appear to be fools when they assume they know what another person thinks or when they seem to be incapable of reading what is written.

You can if you wish, but to have the kind of society where that fundamental chances that quickly, it would probably have to be some sort of global eugenic despotism, third Reich style, at that point, there are no universal rules and don't know how I would react as it would be overwhelming and highly depressing

O you agree it would be bad?

Yes

Humans have a natural instinct against murder. The social forces required to remove that instinct will basically turn humans into another species. We would be in a situation of global enslavement as a minimum prerequisite. Evolution doesn't move that fast on its own.

Thus being in such a society, humans freely murdering may be a minor issue comparatively as society itself burns down and the planet is destroyed due to the utter lack of empathetic capability. (People would have no qualms against nukes for example)

You may not be able to breathe..

But truthfully, what slave master would want that kind if slave anyway?

Very few? In fact you can't name any, right?

If Christian views are being forced on you how did you manage to remain a free thinker?

If you looked after 'your lady' properly, or she been able to look after herself, perhaps she wouldn't have needed an abortion. But there are many others who are not in favor of abortion who are not Christian. Did you know that?
