I think the gist is clear, despite the fragmentary nature of the English.

He thinks that Kant's Categorical Imperative is a sound basis for morality, and wants this to be our standard, rather than a Christian morality, which he dislikes. 

He doesn't want political parties associated with Christianity. He sees social democrats as a preferable alternative -- though I seriously doubt that the eradication of Christianity is really a part of their platform. Probably they simply want a secular approach to governing. 

I suspect that once we're past the language issues, most people here will agree with him.

Interaktive, what country are you posting from? I think it would be easier to understand what you're getting at if we knew that.

I speak Spanish and French, in case that makes it easier. But I'll try to piece it together in English if that's what it takes.
