More debates need a simple "CAN IT"
Some debates don't even need to happen anymore. No the earth isn't flat. No trans people aren't monsters trying to kill Jesus. No vaccines don't turn you gay. No the world wasn't created 6000 years ago.
We've legitimized too many morons in the world. Not everything is a debate, some things are just facts that need to be thought to the ignorant.
If only we did all politics like this.
let's be honest if the argument about anything is religious the person don't have enough brain to debate anything
I tend to agree, but as I've gotten older I've got a bit less strict with thinking all religious people are idiots.
But I'm still pretty fervently of the mind that dogmatic monotheism is honestly one of the — if not the — worst thing that happened to humanity.
The intolerance of narrow monotheism is written in letters of blood across the history of man from the time when first the tribes of Israel burst into the land of Canaan. The worshippers of the one jealous God are egged on to aggressive wars against people of alien [beliefs and cultures]. They invoke divine sanction for the cruelties inflicted on the conquered. The spirit of old Israel is inherited by Christianity and Islam, and it might not be unreasonable to suggest that it would have been better for Western civilization if Greece had moulded it on this question rather than Palestine.

Agree with you completely. Now shut up.

Maybe that is what we need to do. "Decide" on certain moral questions based on best scientific data and our values and sound arguments and then stop debating them. Unless new scientific evidence challenges those moral edicts.
Somehow we keep going round in circles as a civilization.
Choosing to love Jesus makes that man happy, and that's great as long as he doesn't try to ruin other people's fun. Why is that so hard for some people to understand? Just live your own life and leave other people alone.
us trans people try to do that, but we're constantly being told not to
Just live your own life and leave other people alone.
But then I'll have to deal with MY own problems! I can't live with that! I have to project!!!
That’s fucking awesome

This is just a strawman.
A fully transitioned strawman who’s finally happy and can live his best straw life.
Yeah nobody brings religion into these debates. They just say things like "God doesn't make mistakes" without even realising the irony.
Five people so far who don't know what a strawman is.

I was thinking there needs to be a -scoreboard somewhere.
