I'd recommend disconnecting the concept of organized religion from faith in your mind. Determine if you actually believe in a god separate from whether you think a particular hierarchical organized religion is the best representation for that god on earth. Leave the church if it doesn't work for you. Find something that does work for you.

You're moving the goal posts and using a no true Scotsman now. First it was nobody, now it's some, but it's not common.
Your point isn't even really relevant to the discussion. The point was that you're using right wing terminology and framing and pretending it's normal, which is what you admit right wingers do. "Far left agenda" isn't a term that an educated or knowledgeable analyst would even remotely pretend is applicable to the content of the mainstream media.
It seems like you identify as a centrist but you speak from a right wing perspective and don't seem to know what left wing even means. The liberals you probably talk to for context are centrists, not leftists.
Asking one person isn't a good sample size. Read accounts from January 6th convicts who claim to be patriots and real Americans. Have you not heard of Patriot Prayer, which put on events that the Proud Boys attended? It seems like you're engaging in an anecdotal fallacy where you think your limited experience is definitive.
My point is that what you're calling far left isn't far or even left. You're applying an Overton window dominated by right wing perspectives. It's not left when NBC interviews someone from Planned Parenthood or talks about equitable housing initiatives. It's definitely not left when mainstream news organizations use soft language to describe corruption and crimes committed by Republicans. Right wingers love to use CNN as an example of "far left" media, when it's far closer to Newsmax than to the Daily Worker. Corporate media can't be leftist by its very nature.
And I have spoken to plenty of people on the right that call themselves far right. They just prefer their dog whistles and euphemisms in official publications such as "Patriot" or "Real American."
You use terms only right wing news sites use, such as "far left." The "far left" in the US is limited to smaller, unrepresented people, for example: anarchist groups in places like Portland and Seattle. The mainstream media is corporate and capitalist. It can't push "far left" perspectives because it has none. It pushes at best centrist ideas like "women should have some amount of say in their health care," but they're even milquetoast about that. "Far left" is black bloc protesters milkshaking Andy Ngo. Let me know when the mainstream media endorses that.
I read it as creating a mandate for the government to reduce microplastics that get into the human body because those reduce fertility and sperm count. Except in these kinds of bills, there's always an unwritten addendum that says that the bill doesn't apply if a perceived obligation affects a company's bottom line
Time to write a new editorial criticizing the judge.
