The Lack of Theism: Clarity

translation: if I do not have an imaginary friend who validates my existence, what is existence for?

how about Not interfering in other people lives about what you say your invisible friend wants

clue: living.. existence is living.

https://www.ncregister.com/commentaries/atheism-s-eccentric-natureAtheism’s ‘Eccentric’ Nature| National Catholic RegisterCOMMENTARY: If a loving God is my center, then all my actions have meaning because they are related to the Absolute.www.ncregister.com

that is a lot of ignoring human history of genocide and war owing to religion, and that there was no historical Jesus

and claiming science, which studies nature, validates the supernatural…

From residential school mass graves, to Germany’s concentration camps: to the witch hunts to the crusades and murder of those who advance science, which does not study supernatural claims

to oppressing heterosexual women and denying rights to LGBTQ for centuries…

it is horrifying to see how nothing is convincing to adults who seek an invisible friend to be charge

https://www.eternitynews.com.au/in-depth/things-im-asked-what-evidence-is-there-for-god/Things I’m Asked: What evidence is there for God?The leading atheistic philosopher in the early twentieth century, Bertrand Russell, was once asked what he would say to God by way of explanation when…www.eternitynews.com.au

funny how hetero men can only find meaning in the purity of an imaginary friend, who allows them to treat women and objects the same, how they measure against other men…..

meanwhile, not everyone is heterosexual

so maybe life has more meaning than things and offspring to inherit, eh.

do not congratulate for minimal results – it is not like anything has improved for heterosexual women….

and it is not like ethnicity is understood as being oppressed

and sex – so sexuality – is what makes most loose their minds completely

being bothered others exist to inferring with other person’s lives

it takes religion to be bothered by other people to genocide them. war never changes, eh.

those who oppose equality and human dignity: it is always religion

then, there are doctors who think they are gods, eh: without regard for human dignity

https://collive.com/there-are-no-atheists-in-surgery-beds/There Are No Atheists in Surgery BedsA true story by Shoshanna Silcove: “It has been said there are no atheists in foxholes. I would add nor are there any in surgery beds. The fantastic doctors worked on me furiously for over 14 hours. Just a few more ounces of blood and it would have been an eternal dirt nap for me. I was lucky.”collive.com

Doctors and professionalism, eh – maybe do another area of medicine or maybe another profession entirely that does not involve people..

there is a lot of bashing on women that is inherent in the trans discussion – by women seeking to avoid being women to men seeking to become the priority women and render the second class of women, into second class in the woman category

mostly: those with concerns about transgender needs to speak in a more human manner than trans are doing about those who are not trans.

from the article:
in a recent ruling, Ontario’s health review board upheld the decision of a College of Physicians and Surgeons of Ontario committee to provide “advice” to Giancarlo McEvenue that he should better follow the profession’s advertising regulations.

Under the Medicine Act, any advertising by a doctor “must not be false, misleading or deceptive; must not contain a testimonial; and must be readily comprehensible, dignified and in good taste.”

“The photograph showing (McEvenue) holding up buckets labelled breast tissue is not dignified or in good taste, regardless of whether the clinic has received positive feedback about it,” the committee wrote.

from the article:

“I think I’m accepted in the Republican Party. A lot of Republicans don’t like gays, but they say, ‘What you do is your own business,’” Leonardon said. “I don’t feel the Republican Party has an anti-gay bias nearly as much as it used to, particularly because the older Republicans have died off and the ones 50 and under just don’t care as much.”

Nina Notes:

in reality, in the USA it is the republican party that has denied and delayed LGBTQ2 Rights along with equality of rights for Heterosexual women

that some think the party is less oppressive than when former President Bush The Elder began using “family values” as code for anti-lgbt and “politically correct” as a slur against democrats for pretending to be inclusive while the honest bigotry of republicans was supposed to appeal to those targeted by bigotry

O’Toole’s strategy, which has included disavowing positions held dear by his party’s base on issues such as climate change, guns and balanced budgets, is designed to appeal to a broader cross-section of voters in a country that tends to be far more liberal than its southern neighbor. Whether moderate Canadians believe O’Toole is the progressive conservative he claims and whether it has alienated conservatives have become central questions of the election campaign.

media hysteria – religion no longer allowed to bully others whining

conversion therapy is religion, it is not therapy – religion does not stop anyone being not heterosexual – and is more often the cause of alcoholism than the AA religion presenting as a support group.

parents should in fact be criminalized for abusing their children with religion, the idea of always being watched or judged and the punishments of abuse physical and emotional are unacceptable,

as literally sacrificing children is a crime, which those who faith health instead of medically treat are doing.

The DeepMind paper published earlier this month strikes a similar tone. “Given the historical oppression and contemporary challenges faced by queer communities, there is a substantial risk that artificial intelligence (AI) systems will be designed and deployed unfairly for queer individuals,” the paper reads.

The paper considers a number of ways AI can be used to target queer people or impact them negatively in areas like free speech, privacy, and online abuse. Another recent study found shortcomings for people who identify as nonbinary when it comes to AI for fitness tech like the Withings smart scale.

On social media platforms, automated content moderation systems can be used to censor content classified as queer, while automated online abuse detection systems are often not trained to protect transgender people from intentional instances of misgendering or “deadnaming.”
