    Ah but the Supreme Court ruled that punishment is only forbidden if it’s cruel and unusual, and it’s not unusual if it happens all the time. Checkmate, atheists.

      Ah so the workaround is that as long as cruel punishment is normalized, it’s always acceptable. You can do something unethical today, and as long as people let you get away with it, it’s completely moral.

      Thanks America!
