Why in 2024 do people still believe in religion? (serious)
  • Because people grow up in religious environments which result in many of there friends and beliefs being tied to that religion. People only stop believing when they are faced with undeniable evidence (which for most is impossible because religious teachings are unfalsifiable) or more often when there is an emotionally charged conflict between there religion and another part of a persons's life.

    For an example of the latter, I once knew someone who started questioning (and eventually became agnostic) because the church they had always went to had started preaching homophobic messages which was irreconcilable with there closest friend being gay.

  • Need to register a domain for business and get a simple website up and running in the USA - tips?
    1. Personally I brought a .site domain from namecheep for $2 a year
    2. Self hosting is cheepest but may require making a call to your service provider or using a dynamic DNS service. Personally I use vultr, though I've heard linode, Azure, google cloud and AWS are all great alternatives.
    3. WordPress is a good option for setting up a website with a ton of plugins and installs available, just make sure to keep your plugins up to date
    4. Make sure to secure your ssh with keyfiles instead of passwords, additionally I followed everything in this guide

  • Yes but you wouldn't happy with that kind of outcome, you'd spend every day hoping for something more interesting to happen, perhaps even hoping for a loss to make things interesting after a certain point.

  • Explosive police report reveals how Moms for Liberty co-founder arranged bisexual threesomes
  • en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HimToo_movement

    #HimToo became connected with rape allegations ... when a mother in the United States tweeted about her son with the #HimToo hashtag. She claimed that her son, Pieter Hanson, was afraid to go on dates because of false rape allegations. Hanson himself disavowed his mother's tweet, saying that ... he never has and never will support #HimToo.

    For better or worse, past evidence suggests people can't be heroized against there will until they are dead (as was the case for the anti-nillist philosopher Nietzsche)

  • Such a solution could actually work (the example of a Republican finding no controversial stuff in her school's curriculum comes to mind), however the problem is it would require the person involved to disassociate with there (presumably anti-gay) friends and family and be accepted by her former "enemies", which would be especially hard if they had a public facing role. They possibly may even have to reject a emotionally driven worldview/ideology they may have adopted, which is quite difficult.

  • Okay, please tell me do I convince an anti-intellectual logic that they refuse to use? I have tried to with no success.

    I do not want my gay friends imprisoned for wanting to be happy, I do not want my trans friends lynched for being able to look at themselves in the mirror. How do you propose I convince those that do through logic alone, when these people are only willing to consider emotional/illogical arguments?

    I don't care about arguing, I care about solutions, what are your solutions to this discrimination we both hate?

  • The issue is not the appeal to hypocrisy, it is discriminating against the rights of others while giving yourself those same rights. For a party that runs on a illogical foundation, having your leaders be shown to be doing what they preach against is powerful enough for people to emotionally disconnect and actually think through the information they have been given. Yes an appeal to hypocracy is a fallacy, but "you can't logically argue someone out of a position they didn't logically obtain", it is better to use a fallacy to force them to think logically, then use logic first and be ignored.
