Please be careful, Kishkumen.

You of all people should know that it was asking nasty questions like that when chatting to people in the marketplace of Athens (the ancient Greek equivalent of posting in a discussion group) that got our old friend Socrates condemned to die by drinking hemlock.
Good point! If there is anything that almost everyone, regardless of party affiliation, can agree on, real questions are threatening and must be silenced.

Here's another big one I forgot:

"My church told me to vote for Trump, and I never question the dubious ideas my church suggests."
Religion is for people whose existential fear is greater than their common sense.

The god idea is popular with desperate people.
