It could be, I guess it would all depend on the theory of what a higher power is. If its God, then thats the endpoint, if its aliens or simulation theory, then it definitely is a kick.

Taking a WAG at the number, I would say that 90% of people in your belief group would use soft power against someone that wouldnt go along with using their new pronouns. This includes things like banning them from social media, kicking them off youtube, debanking them, ect. Do you think that using influence like this is approapraite to get people to not offend the trans people?

So the issue is that this is not what they are referring to. What they are talking about is when the FBI (and CIA) get involved in politics or directly sway things in direction that is outside of what the FBI is for.

Flip phone or non internet phone. We have a phone for the kids, but its not one that can get them to the internet or sending pictures.

My main point is any philosophy about where humans came from is a matter of faith. I was just pointing out the issue where evolution doesnt sufficiently explain things, but most atheists are aware of this or just handwave away the problem.

I suppose on picking a religion you would need to look at what makes the most logical sense, and is most consistent. Also I would look at what has the best track record with the best outcome.

So then what would you say to a person that wont use preferred pronouns of a trans person?

The problem is that DNA and associated parts are too complex to evolve, so there is no explaination how it would have gotten to that point. You can say that religion doesnt do a good job explaining, but the various religions have one even though its kind of cheating. Evolution seems impossible without another unknown factor which makes it another faith based system.

How did the Heritage Foundation significantly help Orban?

The problem with this theory is that we dont have a complete explanation for existence without the existence of a higher power.

What would you say to a person that wont use preferred pronouns of a trans person?

You are just making up their intentions based on nothing.

You guys literally just claim things without any evidence… You guys have lost to plot

Let me get this straight the conservatives in Oregon (which have no power) forced through legistlation… Sure thing bro!

Thats funny, I was born and raised in Portland and now it sucks due to the type of policies people like you advocate for.

That could be how you would mean it, but that is not how I interpret it or how they intended it.

The free market doesnt align with DEI, its forced by corporations and organizations that are backed up by the government.

Why would it be bad to terminate investigations that are unlawful or contrary to national interests?

I guess till they become and adult because they are in charge of their decisions at that point.

You are bad at parenting if you give your child a smart phone or social media.

It will be fun to see if the media will try to spin it as him looking good tomorrow.
