Almost like you can lower abortion rates by making childcare affordable
- Comment on Schools won't be allowed to teach children that they can change their gender ID, reports say 1 day ago:
Case in point. Anyone who tries to argue against the agenda gets pressured out of it by being called a “murderer”.

If you put out any research going against giving children puberty blockers you’d be labelled as a “trans phobe” and be cancelled immediately by social activists who aren’t scientists. Children should be given therapy to love their bodies and who they are, even if they don’t fit male or female social norms. Not hormone blockers and HRT.
- Comment on Schools won't be allowed to teach children that they can change their gender ID, reports say 1 day ago:
A lot of people I grew up with who thought they were trans simply grew out of it. Many of them were pressured into it, or were doing it because they thought they weren’t masculine/feminine enough to fit with societal norms. Or just wanted to be different. I was pressured into it as well when I was younger and made to identify as non binary because “cis men are bad” and I couldn’t be a cis man in that friend group or something. Could have went worse.

Fair. No clue why we should be teaching children stuff like this.

Aren’t pigeons communists

Kinda like well defined clouds with a shape to them and emit light

Best to point your phone to the sky

Is a really good site. They even have an app that sends notifications
- Comment on Google Delists Sites Providing DIY Hormone Therapy at Behest of UK Government 6 days ago:
The trans community have done an incredible job of researching, sourcing and pooling information on making it as safe as possible and share this knowledge with each other.
British reviews that discard evidence that disagrees
I think I’d trust British reviews more than research done by ideologically fueled 15 year olds on twitter

I don’t think doing medical treatment on yourself from dodgy websites is always a good idea

Seems to be common sense
- Comment on recruiting theocracy 1 week ago:
We aren’t saved by a seven day or billion year creation period. We aren’t saved by the perpetual virginity of Mary or her assumption. We aren’t saved by reverend singing or clapping hands. We are saved through the blood of Jesus Christ, the lamb sacrificed for us.
- Comment on recruiting theocracy 1 week ago:
We do have inherent designed morality, because morality exists and we know of it because of the fruit of the tree in the knowledge of good and evil. So since morality exists and is real, everyone has a knowledge of it from the beginning.
However, Atheism does like to contravene morality and redesign the moral compass to suit whatever agenda someone would like to push. An example being is the dehumanisation of Jews and people being desensitised to violence to perpetuate the holocaust. Showing opposition brought social and political persecution, all to benefit an authoritarian agenda of militarism and not balming themselves.
Or for a more present and relevant example, foetuses being dehumanised and abortion being normalised and showing any opposition to it may bring social persecution, as to benefit a capitalist agenda and being told “it’s for the good of our freedom” while it actually just relieves the state’s responsibility to care for it’s young and to keep young women in wage slavery.
So yes, Atheists can be moral. But my point is- once you throw God’s solid and unchanging word out of the window, you can warp and “normalise” immoral things and do what you want.

There’s nothing wrong with a Protestant discussing stuff with a Catholic. They agree on 95% of things.
- Comment on recruiting theocracy 1 week ago:
Good. Freedom of religion should be given to people in armies too, whether they are Christian, Muslim or Atheist. There’s nothing wrong with recruiting a minister in those religions to help out with their adherents.
- Comment on recruiting theocracy 1 week ago:
Same argument can be made for Atheism which is basically people trying to convince themselves God doesn’t exist just so they can be immoral and live life without consequences. Why should society pander to that?
- Comment on recruiting theocracy 1 week ago:
I heard a story of a Protestant who preferred to use a Catholic chaplain, as they cannot break the seal of a confession unless it is in dire circumstances (eg, they confessed to raping or murdering someone)
- Comment on recruiting theocracy 1 week ago:
What’s dystopian about having chaplains in militaries? Because how dare someone assist someone else in their faith which involves worshipping someone other than our lord and saviour Darwin and Pope Dawkins?

- Comment on NHS charter to stress biological sex when placing patients in wards 2 weeks ago:
Well they aren’t the same as normal women either, so what are they
- Comment on NHS charter to stress biological sex when placing patients in wards 2 weeks ago:
No, it’s to stop putting men in the same wards as women in case the men rape the women or harass them. It’s about protecting women.
- Comment on NHS charter to stress biological sex when placing patients in wards 2 weeks ago:
transgender people, whose gender identity differs from their biological sex, may be provided single rooms, where appropriate

Wouldn’t that be the opposite of what TERFs want…?

How is this not common sense? It’s a matter of woman’s safety, like Isla Bryson
