What we "think"? Is this another thing where he/she pronouns are no longer linked to sex?Why not just give everyone the same respect? How does it oppress you if someone wants a different pronoun than you think they should have?
So Mary in accounts turns out to have been a Dave. Well, I'll be...What we "think"? Is this another thing where he/she pronouns are no longer linked to sex?
If you refer to someone as a male who is not one then you are lying. Why would people demand that others lie about them?
That's so true. The left's game is to change the language. Confuse it so badly that words are actually meaningless. Like the word normal. We all have known forever what normal is. But if there is no normal then everything is normal and nothing is normal. Abnormal becomes meaningless because there must be normal in order to have abnormal. And since everything is normal and nothing is abnormal the two words don't exist because they cannot be defined. The definition normal becomes irrelevant. It's like the definition of woman. There is no definition of woman that satisfies the left b cause men can be a woman. Nothing is normal. Pronouns become meaningless. Everything becomes what anyone wants it to be at any given moment. Nothing is solid or real. Except for climate change. We can define normal for that. We can have abnormal weather patterns, it can be hotter and colder than normal.Thanks for posting this. Things have gotten so out of whack that you don’t know what normal means
This is all about the language police. I bloody can't stand the language police. If I want to call Mary a he because Mary is a male I'll darn well do it. If you want to call Mary a she, be my guest. If you are confused about sex that's up to you to figure out. Call Mary a she, I won't stop you and I'm not going to jump in and say "he, he". By the same token I don't need you or anyone else being the pronoun police yelling "she, she!" if I say he.So Mary in accounts turns out to have been a Dave. Well, I'll be...
What do you do? 'Sorry, I'm going to have to refer to you as he from now on. You see, I just found out'. Is that how it works? Or do you think 'Hey, she looks just like a woman to me. I'll stick with she'.
I'd imagine calling the dress something different in the post I initially responded to wouldn't change the opinion presented there either.A cassock is not a dress.
Let’s apply your reasoning across the board.Like all safety issues, it's a matter of probabilities. The evidence we have, indicates that ministers are more likely to be pedophiles than transgendered people.
Hmmm....Let’s apply your reasoning across the board.
Of the murders in America, 53.5% are committed by black people, yet black people only make up 14.4% of the population.
Therefore, because it’s a matter of probability, the evidence indicates that it’s not safe to be around black folks.
As I said, I just call people whatever they want to be called.What we "think"? Is this another thing where he/she pronouns are no longer linked to sex?
If I have a neighbor who is under the illusion that he's the Grand Marshal of the Trump Honor Guard for North Texas, I'll happily say "Hey, Marshall, how's it going?" Why should you care? You probably don't care in that case, because fake honor guards don't scare you.If you refer to someone as a male who is not one then you are lying. Why would people demand that others lie about them?
Nice try. Google how many murders they commitHmmm....
FBI data:
"Of the murder victims for whom race was known, 53.3 percent were Black or African American, 43.8 percent were White,"
Nice try. Rarely do we see such blatant victim-blaming. I'm not thinking that was your dishonesty; I suspect you were fed that lie by others who correctly assumed that you'd never check the numbers.
Maybe you don't know what "transvestite" means. Do you think it means all that? Seriously?Clever quip but I'm sure you're familiar with male and female doesn't exist, men can become pregnant, women can impregnate, sex, sexual orientation, gender is all fluid and one is whatever one identifies as ie a total break from reality.
I'm curious. What exactly was the normal that everyone knew was normal?That's so true. The left's game is to change the language. Confuse it so badly that words are actually meaningless. Like the word normal. We all have known forever what normal is.
No. They are pedophiles. Pedophiles are attracted to kids below the age of puberty and generally are indifferent to the sex of the child.Those ministers are closet homosexuals or something least bisexual if they are doing it to kids of the same sex.
I know someone like that. Her biological mother dumped her on relatives right after birth and took off to live whatever life she wanted. "Mother" is her aunt, who took her in and raised her with love and care. Her biological mother is only that.It's not about the abolishment of slurs. It's about the abolishment of many words like "mother" and the establishment of terms like "birthing person" in place of "mother".
I was being a wise guy. The "zone" is a belt used in EO vestments.I don't have any problems with what they wear, but other posts certainly expressed concern.
Sure. As you seem to know, those who are sexually attracted to children often end up in jobs where they are close to kids or in positions of authority over them. They are, of course, a small subset of the others in such jobs, who are merely people who want to be of service to children. But they are there, nevertheless.Please continue to post this line of reasoning.
No. I merely noted that ministers are more likely to be a hazard to kids than people who are not in child-oriented jobs. For the reasons we discussed. The Catholic Church for example, has implemented controls to make it harder to be alone with or in a position to abuse a child. Some other denominations are following that lead. Those inclined to abuse kids will tend to find jobs that put them in a position to do so. But you don't have to make it easy for them.Read his last post. Children are not safe around ministers according to him.
See the data I posted. You should fear black people if you are black. If you are white, you are nine times as likely to be killed by a white person as by a black person. Think.Nice try. Google how many murders they commit
No, you don't get it. Once you have made the first wicked lifestyle choice (to be gay or trans or whatever) you have repudiated Christian moral compass and the next wicked lifestyle choice becomes easier and it's a slippery slope leading right to pedophilia.No. I merely noted that ministers are more likely to be a hazard to kids than people who are not in child-oriented jobs.

Children are statistically safer around transvestites than they are are around ministers, because the data indicate that transvestites are less likely to be pedophiles.
Then it’s not safe to be around eitherSee the data I posted. You should fear black people if you are black. If you are white, you are nine times as likely to be killed by a white person as by a black person. Think.
In the case of what I'm talking about the aunt being called "mother" would be eliminated. And she wouldn't qualify for the replacement term of "birthing person".I know someone like that. Her biological mother dumped her on relatives right after birth and took off to live whatever life she wanted. "Mother" is her aunt, who took her in and raised her with love and care. Her biological mother is only that.
