    The expectations of Feminism and the poison of identity politics?

    In the West, the most respected and prestigious role is to free and self-made, to accomplish what one chooses to accomplish with their life, whether they are or men in women. So perhaps that general underlying theme lends credence to an idea that a woman should be able to live her life without...

    Beyond language

    It is really true. When I started working for a student newspaper, I was sort of shocked at just how bad of writers so many students were. But it might not even be as omnipresent as just how carefully people read things and what they get from it. I mean, anyone skimming and reading fast is going...

    Beyond language

    It's very true. I feel like most people come to terms with it. But then again, everyone once in awhile your come across an arrogance that is so profoundly contrary to any self-awareness, as to land in that pitfall over and over...

    What is it with the Guns?

    'Tis true. Although, it seems to me that our basic liberties are more so threatened or curtailed during instances of fighting external enemies. Even, if say, America got rid of the first amendment, I feel it would be best to try everything I can other than violence to secure such a right back...

    Beyond language

    It's certainly more effective. People going about feeling most of the day, and only have so much glucose at hand to waste thinking critically, it's not very reasonable to expect people to go entirely out of their way to rigorously follow someone one's thinking. I mean, I realize people do from...

    What is it with the Guns?

    Was curious. I have no particular hopes that something similar would happen to myself or my children, etc. I'd be fine fighting for my freedom is need be.

    Beyond language

    I mean, if they are esoteric ideas, they never were really intended to be easily grasped by anyone easily.

    Are Human Rights Universal?

    They don't exist for anyone innately, universally?

    12 Ways to Spot a Misogynist

    Pst, I don't need a list to spot misogyny. One just need go to about any public space, and you'll come across sooner or later.

    Does God "CHOOSE" not to know the future?

    I'm sorry I don't understand the question. I was referring to Matthew 19:26, "Jesus looked at them and said, “With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.”" This is the only sentiment in the Bible I'm aware of that suggests God can do anything. There isn't anything in the...

    What is it with the Guns?

    I'd shoot guns again at a range again if the opportunity presented itself. I mean, I'd never go out of my way to go to a gun range. I wouldn't bring a kid to one because the lead. Just seems strange the notion of freedom being attached to holding and shooting a target with a gun. Perhaps...

    Why, are you veteran or something?

    What is it with the Guns?

    What? And slaughterhouses just kill a cow, cut off a steak, and drop the rest in the trash? I've never seen a hunter make soap from fat, or fertilizer from bones, or stock from antlers. I generally agree, although it's pretty easy to shoot a gun from a moral and pragmatic position. I never...

    Um? I guess I entirely missed the meaning of your post then.

    What is it with the Guns?

    Not if the supply of meat was the same... I mean, maybe in the sense that the overwhelming majority of population can't really engage in hunting...

    What is it with the Guns?

    Not that I don't support people having guns, or whatever, but I never really got this argument at all. There is no ban or law that criminals would comply with..., but when has that ever been the sole validation for why one wouldn't should ban something?

    What is it with the Guns?

    I don't know. I've shot plenty of guns in my life. Never once did it feel like freedom to me. Felt sort of boring, except for the skeet.
