    To Be or Not To Be: your gender (Vivek R.)

    I will do my best. There are three elements that make up a person's sex: chromosomes, genitalia and secondary sex characteristics, and brain hardwiring. In MOST people all three are aligned. But in a minority they are not. For one particular minority, their chromosomes and genitalia are one...

    To Be or Not To Be: your gender (Vivek R.)

    First, let's talk about their SEX (I'll get to gender in a moment). A hermaphrodite is neither/both sexes. That's what intersexual MEANS. For the purposes of trying to get along in society, usually one or the other sex is chosen for them. This is easier in cases when the intersexuality is...

    To Be or Not To Be: your gender (Vivek R.)

    There are only two sexes, but there are some people who just don't fit well into either box, and we need to be tolerant of them. As far as gender goes, this is a new idea in our culture, that gender is separate from sex. Again, I would say there are two basic boxes, but some people just don't...

    Do Christians Secretly Believe Jesus Walks Among Us?

    Since we are using AI, here is what it says. Some people believe in hidden meanings, and other do not. AI makes no statement as to whether those hidden meanings actually exist. And of course NONE of that has anything to do with whether you can read Christian minds.

    Trump Puts Women Off Sex. Surprise

    I think a lot of us feel that way. :) A strongman is a political dictator. Adam was not. Totalitarianism is a more extreme form of governance than a strongman dictatorship. In totalitarianism, the state controls every single last aspect of your life, including your thoughts and beliefs...

    Do Christians Secretly Believe Jesus Walks Among Us?

    I'm not interested in what you think. Only in what you do. Listen, this is not a productive conversation. I've spent far more time on it than what it deserves. If you want to reply, that's up to you. But I'm done, and won't be replying.

    Do Christians Secretly Believe Jesus Walks Among Us?

    This is called deflection. When someone is caught in the wrong, they say, "But look what so and so is doing."

    The Suffering Servant in Jewish Kabbalah.

    Here in the US, only 9-10% of Jews are Orthodox, among them, about 62% are ultra orthodox, meaning that they are far more likely to believe the temple will not be rebuilt until the messiah comes.

    And your idea that you aren't is quite sad.

    Do Christians Secretly Believe Jesus Walks Among Us?

    Judging an external behavior doesn't require you to read anyone's mind. The problem here is that you are assuming you know better what a person thinks inside their own head than they themselves. That's what makes it abusive.

    Do you imagine you can't abuse an entire group?

    Do Christians Secretly Believe Jesus Walks Among Us?

    Yes, just like Chicken Little.

    Do Christians Secretly Believe Jesus Walks Among Us?

    Again, unless you have direct evidence that they are lying, assume they are telling the truth.

    The Suffering Servant in Jewish Kabbalah.

    Nah. Earthquakes are the result of Plate Tectonics, not anything supernatural.

    Do Christians Secretly Believe Jesus Walks Among Us?

    Says who? I have no reason to suspect that the universe is ending.

    Do Christians Secretly Believe Jesus Walks Among Us?

    I go by the rule of thumb that unless we have direct proof that someone is lying, we need to believe what they say about their beliefs, thoughts, and feelings. It is really quite ridiculous to assume that we can read their minds, and deeply insulting as well. Once you start down the path of...

    Everything changes.

    Do Christians Secretly Believe Jesus Walks Among Us?

    I have talked to many, many Christians in life, and have never met a single one who thought this.

    Political and Religious Beliefs

    Political beliefs are where our morals and values intersect with the policies that affect society and our ability to influence those policies.

    Political and Religious Beliefs

    I don't see that actually happening. What I see is that a person's beliefs are usually quite complex, with more than one ideal, and that means their beliefs just don't line up with either party. So they prioritize their ideals, and choose the party that lines up with those things at the top...
