    In Defense of Scientism

    She turned to the internet, spent long nights researching, and eventually found what saved his life (outside of the country). Did she trust the experts here? No, she didn't. She researched various conditions and found what fit; she was right. I'm also not saying one should disregard what...

    Canadian tribunal fines $55,000 for expressing Christian views on “transgenderism”

    I'm not aware of any research on the topic, since these individuals are few and far between, unlike the widely accepted LGBT+

    In Defense of Scientism

    I don't believe anyone is an absolute authority on anything, period. While I respect science as a tool and the knowledge and experience of scientists, I don't see science or scientists as any sort of absolute authority on any given thing. Do I trust scientists at their word? Rarely, I often seek...

    Canadian tribunal fines $55,000 for expressing Christian views on “transgenderism”

    I don't claim to be an expert in any field. Furthermore, from the brief reading I have done of the linked content, I don't consider "possibly" to be the same thing as "is". Also, since this study is limited in size of group and duration, I have no conclusion to make on it. I will look more...

    Canadian tribunal fines $55,000 for expressing Christian views on “transgenderism”

    Unlike cancer, gender dysphoria isn't a disease which causes death. While gender dysphoric individuals can suffer from depression and anxiety, they can also suffer from a variety of other mental illnesses. Do you know what else? Men and women who aren't gender dysphoric can also suffer from...

    Canadian tribunal fines $55,000 for expressing Christian views on “transgenderism”

    You have to show me the studies if you want me to even consider your position.

    I don't disagree with the use of science or having scientists. What I disagree with is placing science and scientists in a position of absolute authority.

    Canadian tribunal fines $55,000 for expressing Christian views on “transgenderism”

    "We" have scientific evidence? Who is this "we" exactly?

    Canadian tribunal fines $55,000 for expressing Christian views on “transgenderism”

    In my opinion, your health insurance should not have paid for such a surgery, especially since it's cosmetic and not as a result of a life threatening or severely debilitating (preventing work) condition. If adult men want to have surgery to look like adult women, that's their business...

    Canadian tribunal fines $55,000 for expressing Christian views on “transgenderism”

    Yes, in my opinion, such a surgery involves a procedure which can be defined as mutilation. Furthermore, comparing a surgery which is done to save a life (removal of breasts due to cancer) to a surgery which is cosmetic in nature, specifically one which affirms a delusion ((sexual reassignment...

    I can not reject Science :)

    Math can build entire world models which don’t actually exist. I don’t care for calculus.

    I can not reject Science :)

    I have reasons and honestly don’t want to debate. Is that okay?

    I can not reject Science :)

    Given current understanding and understanding of the time, of course the Lunar missions were possible. Did NASA land men on the Moon? No, not in my opinion. For me, possible doesn’t equal “it happened” or even that it was probable.

    Does it really matter if we believe in God?

    In my opinion, the world fell when man did. In time to come (I don’t know when) the world will be restored to what it was pre-fall. It will be no less physical than it is today, nor will we be less physical than we are today. While it won’t have a sun or seas, it will be a physical place.

    Does it really matter if we believe in God?

    Both actions and words matter.

    Should we have to use pronouns?

    If I can’t tell, I can’t tell. *Shrugs*

    Should we have to use pronouns?

    Some do, some don’t. I only care that I have the same basic rights as anyone else and that my faith isn’t illegal.

    Should we have to use pronouns?

    Pardon?

    Should we have to use pronouns?

    Personally, I choose not to reinforce people’s delusions if at all possible.
