What's amazing is that history is repeating itself. In colonial times, there was state mandated religion. You could only get married by XYZ denomination of church, and you couldn't say XYZ blasphemous thing. The founders of America abolished all of that so the people would be free to live their lives according to their own individual religious beliefs (so long as those religious beliefs didn't infringe upon the natural rights of others).
Now we have liberals trying to bring back state mandated religion, except instead of some Christian denomination, it's called "science" or "secularism." You can't say that gender is immutable from birth. You can't talk about your Christian faith in the public square. You must inject yourself with the vax. You must believe that black people are oppressed and white people are the oppressors. Etc. Etc. And if you don't conform to the new dogma you're a bigot and you get cancelled.
It's literally the same battle the American founders fought.
