Yup! There’s even a verse in Ecclesiastes about right vs left.
“The heart of the wise inclines to the right, but the heart of the fool to the left.” Ecclesiastes 10:1
In light of this verse, I’ve found it interesting/ironic, that conservatism, patriotism, etc., are characteristics that place one on the “right side” of the political spectrum, and belief in the opposite of those things, places you on the left side of the political spectrum. Just sayin.. 😬🤷🏼♀️😂
It’s also interesting that the word right doesn’t just have the meaning of a direction, it also means correct, true. If you are “right” about something, you are correct, you have the true answer.
Also, in romance languages, the word for "left" is some form of "sinistra" from which derives our English word "sinister" meaning: "something harmful or evil is happening or will happen."
ambidextrous. My mom grew up in England and she told me they would be forced to write with their right hands in school... Write is right. I am ambidextrous in my thinking due to my inability to see out of my left eye and yet i use both hands differently deepening on the situation. Confliction occurs in this. I am lefty that had to learn to many tasks as a righty and yet retained writing with my left hand. Catch and throw with my right hand but had to learn to catch with the left to play ball. Try batting as a lefty without being able to see out your left eye. This is yet another reason why America is great. We learn to accept those as me and yet i always cope with my disabilities. Many have to learn how to discern me. lol. when it comes to political ... A Christian that even claims to be ..Innocent as a lamb... can not be a democrat and yet we know now that being liberal to a democrat is being free of good and bound to evil. So essentially one who is claims to be a Christian right now in the USA is a liar. :)
"Left-hand path?" I thought that was how you get through mazes.

Holy shit it's a real thing
Why do you think Jesus sits at the right hand of God? Left vs right hand path isn't new.

Honored guests traditionally sit to the right of the host as a means of respect.

And if you are left, you have left your moral compass.
In French the word "gauche" means "left". It also means "wrong".
I wonder if this is why left-handedness was seen as evil in centuries past.
I'm a righty, but now I'm curious.
I bring this up because that's what LGBT types use a lot. "They didn't think being left-handed was natural either. Until they did."
Yes, I think they did, because they forced a lot of kids to write with the right hand.
Otherwise, why bother?
There is a third way.

Namaste?
The left hand is the hand middle easterners use to wipe their ass.
Danzig even wrote a song about it https://youtu.be/Wz0q3CatoWo
Ahah, this is why the agents tried to make him racist.
