Does it matter? You twist everything to fit your narrative anyway so please take this comment and twist it once more.

No, like how you get to decide what an atheist is. And here’s a new one: can you make one singular response without any assumptions? Or have you read a history book anywhere in your life?
No it does not. My lack of faith in a god has nothing to do with an ideology, because I don’t need it to define me as a person.
You’re the only one discussing liberal values here. But you go shout some more in your vacuum. I’m bored of you now.
And why is white supremacy relevant in this discussion?
As I said, you haven’t actually given an answer to any of my questions yet you somehow want me to respond to some incident that happened to some singular individual 2000 years ago that you read in this singular book of fiction that you happen to believe in.
So no, no comment on that, I for sure care less about that then you care about downvotes.
Yeah keep jerking yourself, all you do is prove the point of the post. You’re so blinded by trying to be the smart cookie here you forget to actually participate in the discussion.
It has been fun though, you’re good at reflecting.
And still not answering any questions put in front of you. Reflecting has always been the best trick in the book of religion.
Yes let the religious nutjob preach about extraordinary claims
How about you answer my question first. Who are you to decide what it means to be an atheist.
And if you really need examples of that you should read up on human history before you continue any aspect of this discussion.
No one cares if downvotes impress you. I’m telling you that you wrongly interpreted a sentence.
They are not blaming a god, they are blaming peoples reason for doing horrible things. There’s lots of them, but claiming it’s something god wants has historically been one of the more common ones.
Their phrasing must have confused you, but as seen in all the downvotes you received it’s a commonly used way of saying this.
Why not? Give me a reason atheists can’t get frustrated about religion holding back society in the past? Are you the one to define what an atheist is? Judging by your comments I’d argue you should be the last to do that.
Could you elaborate on what you mean by that as a response to my post?
That is not at all what i am saying at all. That’s the second one on this topic to twist my words to fit what they think is the kind of person I am. If you want to read negatively you’ll find it everywhere.
Let me state the obvious here. People who are in this situation have to make some tough decisions. I know it sucks, I have friends who went through this and yet I can’t even begin to imagine how tough it gets first hand. It does drastically change their lives for the better, but it has consequences. They lose family, they lose friends, and in case of the subject at hand they might lose their job too.
That sucks, but for the vast majority it’s still worth it big time in order to be yourself.
Also, what you are saying applies to the individual. For the government, and for things such as these sporting events, they will not ‘be’ female until they undergo their transformation.
Of course that’s not what I mean. You’re missing the entire point of my post because of the way I describe the moment of the procedure itself.
Sometimes you make a decision in life that affects your future in a meaningful way. Becoming a trans is one of those things. Sadly there’s no good solution to the problem it causes in sports right now so the only possible answer is to not have them in the competition.
They are not saying to leave them behind, and comparing this to not participating in life is an unfair exaggeration. The situation is far too complicated for that. It’s not just about politics here, there’s other people involved that would be put at a disadvantage, others that would abuse the situation to gain money, etc.
And yes, I’m well aware of the injustice being done to trans people on every possible level, and that needs to change, this battle itself though is just not the same.
*Edit: I’m reading further down that this “problem” it causes might not be as big as I heard it was in the media. So take this comment with that in mind if you will. It only proves the complexity of the issue though.
Well if someone causes a dangerous situation, why not both?
It’s funny, because yet again you find yourself in the position to define who is and is not an atheist. Hey guys we don’t need a dictionary to dictate how I personally define my beliefs, just ask this guy.
Again, no answers, just reflections
*Edit, I’m sorry my bad, there was a response in there. Good that you know History. So you have plenty of examples of religion being abused by people to do evil. So now you’re asking me for examples, except this whole thing started with an example straight out of the box.
