    Italian writer against women choosing the bear: hating men has become fashionable

    According to nearly all definitions, feminism is the belief in and advocacy of the political, economic, and social equality of the sexes expressed especially through organized activity on behalf of women's rights and interests. Referring to the meaning in waves is a ploy to undermine the...

    Biden "Israel killed civilians by USA bombs"

    I'm having trouble deciphering what yer trying to say here but what is clear is that you are often responding to stuff people aren’t actually saying. Then getting frustrated enough to place a completely level headed poster, making a completely level headed post, on ignore. You made similar...

    Biden "Israel killed civilians by USA bombs"

    The fact is protest works. Mobilizing in solidarity is effective and when students demonstrate they are simply behaving like students behave. They are told to be responsible adults and when they question authority suddenly all the free speech "absolutists" disagree with that concept showing...

    Its not euthanasia, its suicide.

    I understand you are hung up on the word objective. When medicine mostly relies on a scientific consensus. At the time. Several doctors can be looking at the same x-ray and not see exactly the same thing. Humans are fallible. Doctors, surgeons and the folks interpreting your blood results...

    Its not euthanasia, its suicide.

    Alright, so what do you mean by humanmade categories? A broken bone has the chance to heal. Scars may toughen. An open wound is harder to handle. Mental illness can be like the open wound of a hemophiliac. It requires treatment. You can have cancer and be cancer free on the other side...

    Its not euthanasia, its suicide.

    What is the radius for the community you imagine? Loyalty to whom? Family? Church? Country? Planet? What do you say to soldiers burdened terribly with suicidal ideation? Pull yerself up by yer bootstraps? They've done that to death already. If we owe something to the global community...

    Its not euthanasia, its suicide.

    One can be of sound mind and capable of making medical decisions even when those decisions mean contemplating ending one's own life. Given particular sets of circumstances it's a rational decision. No need to infantilize the woman. The "I didn't do it so she shouldn't either" business is...

    Its not euthanasia, its suicide.

    This really boils down to accepting that you can't control what other people do. You can’t force people to look at life the way you do or look at death the way you want them to. That sort of meddling seems aggressively judgemental. Why burden them with another problem they don't need?

    Vatican Blasts Trans Surgery, Surogacy, Etc

    I see what you're saying. I've invited the odd JW in for a chat. Partly because I don't mind hearing anybody out but mostly because I think it's brave to knock on doors these days. For any reason. And I live in Canada in the middle of nowhere so arriving at my door takes a certain degree of...

    Vatican Blasts Trans Surgery, Surogacy, Etc

    After growing up Anglican I understand the pervasiveness of ingrained moral beliefs. Participating in religious rituals that guarantee a place in heaven and prayers delivered with such repetition I can recite them by heart to this day. Despite the fact my heart isn't in it. I could go on...

    Conversations with people with delusions of infallibility

    Learning how to decipher when to proceed and when to cut bait is beneficial to any conversation. For everyone involved. That point is something each individual must figure out on their own. It's usually a matter of discussing a subject with people who are as curious about the topic as you...

    Gender reassignment/affirming surgery

    This is it exactly. Freedom of speech is something to fight for, not hide behind. And talented comedians are creative enough to adapt to language as it changes. That was Carlin's forte.

    Vatican Blasts Trans Surgery, Surogacy, Etc

    I doubt it's old news for victims. Living with it day after day. The ones that survived anyway. A perpetually revolving door for pedophile priests is about as current as it gets. Like forever and ever. Eh men.
