Sunday School

WTF is wrong with these people?

They are religious and have power.

Krill met the Cuddly One in 2016, the first time in 1,000 years the 2 Popes met.

The Evolution Exposed would be a great comedy event if only so many people were not so deluded by religion. They are liars for Jesus and their bank accounts. I find him abhorrent.

I had a good socially distanced laugh with my Moldovan atheist neighbors yesterday.

Just come back from my neighbors. They invited me over to partake in some of the savory foods left over from their celebration of Eid (end of Ramadan).  They know I am an atheist as I once told the Mormons that they would appreciate a visit. I later told them that I suggested that the Mormons call to them. We became good neighbors after that 🙂

Thanks Reg!

Sorry, just noticed that the post was not linked to the Sunday School forum.

Thanks, you are most welcome.

Thanks Reg

Our morals are fostered by the people we spend time with.

This is very interesting and illuminating, and I agree with most of what they say.  I learnt my morals as an adult, from two particular women, and later on, two particular men.  You could call it, a moral compass.  One of those women is a career criminal, but she still has more morals th…[Read more]

Have a great week everyone!

I just don’t see the world as defined by the left or right. I see initiatives as being smart/stupid, efficient/inefficient, lacking/sufficient, moral/immoral, scientific/unfounded, etc. in degrees. I currently find Biden to be smarter, more scientific and most likely more caring of people than the incumbent egocentric and highly contradictory…[Read more]

The moment you start saying “the problem with the left”. It’s only slightly more meaningful than saying “the problem with voters who live in East-London”. It’s absurd to generalize about them.

Again, you are correct, technically, that the Left is not monolithic, in the same way that Islam, Christianity, feminism, atheism, etc. are not monolithic.…[Read more]

@Davis – I am quoting you verbatim as it is worth a second read.

The point isn’t to get people to assume absolute guilt from the beginning but to stop excusing it and brushing it off as is the default for a still enormous chunk of people. In other words, to get people to take such accusations as seriously as they would take other more easily a…[Read more]

#TakeAccusersSeriously is short.

People don’t shed a tear for those falsely accused of other crimes but they do for the tiny fraction of those of sexual-assault crimes.

That’s because it’s one of the worst things that a man can be accused of, and the difficulty in proving it goes both ways.

The moment you start saying “the problem with the lef…

Yeah Simon…changing 10,000 years of people ignoring, dismissing or disbelieving (or not caring) sexual abuse victims (or vilifying them) is going to be an easy subtle nuanced strategy. I don’t give a shit how mysogenists spin the “believe” movement. I don’t think you will make any progress…[Read more]

The “alt-right” is not the same thing as “the right”. They tend to vote for parties that are grouped under the right side of the political spectrum but they are a fringe group of their own. And even they don’t remotely speak with one voice and it is exceedingly difficult to characterize them. That…is hardly the same as grouping 50% of the world…[Read more]

Asking people to “believe” survivors

Yes, but #BelieveAllWomen means “believe all accusers”, and a blanket policy like this just plays into the hands of misogynists, as we see here (assuming that the author is a misogynist).  Misogynists love to bang on about false rape allegations.

No good comes of no good.  Removing the basic faculty of justi…[Read more]

there is no such thing as the “left”

You don’t believe that the alt-Right is a thing?
