People Who Should Never be Allowed to Vote or Hold Office


Oh boy this is going to piss a whole hell of a lot of people off.



1. Anyone 70 or over

I honestly think that after hitting 70 you should be allowed to vote anymore. Here is why,


The average life expectancy in the U.S is 78.74 years so the fact is that they won't be feeling most of the repercussions of the person they vote for. They aren't voting for their own future they are voting for the younger generations future so why should they have any say in that. Furthermore as you get to that age your mind and memory isn't what it used to be. So the fact is that I believe that the elderly should not be allowed to vote.



2. Sociopaths

I would go even further to say that sociopaths should not be allowed to have anything to do with the policy of a company. If a person has no conscience they won't be considering how their vote effects others. If someone truly doesn't give a shit about other people then why should society let them have any say in how society works.



3. People with an IQ of under 100

The fact is that anyone who has a below average IQ should not be allowed to vote. The fact is that dumb people generally make dumb decisions. So why let them help make the decisions for the entire country.



4. People who let their religious beliefs dictate how they vote.

Look you think Gay Marriage is a sin that is fine with me just don't get married to someone of the same sex. The fact is that we don't live in a theocracy we live in a country that has separation of church and state. That is the best option, I believe in god, but if you are christian I believe in a VERY different deity than you.



I'm spiritual but not religious and I believe in a god or goddess (With the latter being more likely in my opinion) not described by any book and one that judges people based on their actions and their hearts not whether they worshiped him or her. However I don't get to use my religious beliefs as a way to dictate other peoples lives. The fact is that no one should be able to do that.



5. People who want religion banned

The fact is that most atheists don't act like this. In fact I'd imagine that most atheists think about people who would like to make religion illegal the same way most Christians think about the westboro baptist church.



Seriously Atheism is literally just as much of a complete mind-fuck as religion and here is why


Pick an origin theory. Either way you're left assuming something has always existed, unchanged, with no beginning or end.



Atheism/Naturalism: constant = matter + force
Alternately: The universe mathed itself into existence, because why the hell not.
Creation (Biblical): constant = God
Theist Evolution: constant = all of the above or God first then creating matter and force for the heck of it
Pantheism: constant = God + matter + force, all of which are one and the same
Panentheism : Uhhh...


The fact is that all of humanity whether they are religious or not should realize this quotes applicability



I have zero idea how everything got here. I would personally say that, if I had to make a list of possibles, God would be pretty far down. But if I were to make a list of people that know what the fuck they are talking about, I would be really far down."

-Louis C.K



Thats pretty much all of humanity whether they are talking about being religious or an atheist. That your thoughts are just as outlandish as the other sides.


The fact is that the only people who can say they are sure are the people who claim to be agnostic because the fact is that the only thing an agnostic claims to be sure of is that they just don't fucking know.



6. Believing any of these things.


People Who Should Never be Allowed to Vote or Hold Office


A. That Global Warming is a hoax



B. The Earth is six thousand years old



C. That White/Black/Asian/ect people are the superior race



Seriously anyone who actually believes any of that shit is missing a few marbles.
