I think that gets missed on both sides...it should never be "veganism is healthy" or "veganism is unhealthy" but rather "veganism is healthy for me" or "veganism is unhealthy for me." People can totally be healthy being vegans, at least in today's world. Me, it would literally kill me.

Except that most of it doesn't? Do you even read, brah?

That's one thing, and it's hardly worth legislating over. I'm not saying I disagree...In fact, I'm not sure how I feel...I just want better ideas, not circular arguments that usually return to "ew, it's disgusting." Precisely for the reasons that brought up this post: many people have that same reaction to

First, the easy ones the final comment is valid and a good reason but limited to vaginal intercourse.

I think it's more subtle than that; I myself often ask questions in the same way because I have a framework but am genuinely unsure of it and desire others to attack it in order to evaluate it.

Hmm...but most of what we could consider our "personal" beliefs are forged under very lopsided power dynamics. It's the nature of our being social creatures. Parents forcing children into sexual activity is against the law without regards to incest; parents maintaining a household where sibling incest is not

It's stupid, but technically correct. Both were going for the ball, but when contact occurred only the keeper actually went for it.

I understand the baggage associated with it but it's actually a rather accurate, precise term. It is a state, newly formed, and with respect to both normative Western sensibilities and its own founded principles it is indeed failed. The term is used destructively but it's less a problem of an inaccurate term and more

Given the root nausea and the suffix ous, while your definition may be correct from a historical perspective it makes very little sense from a logic perspective. Notice you used "sickening, disgusting, revolting" to describe it...may perhaps "nauseating" does the same job? You can be full of either seasickness or

LOUD NOISES

Heart trails on bows, pigs sounds on death...those are aesthetic and not effected, as per the clarification.

I'm willing to bet 99% of the money made off of these "private" servers, as you call them, is illegal in some way or another...if only because I doubt anyone pays taxes on it. Majong actually has liability, in many countries, to control this as much as they can. That liability would not extend to mere access, which is

Fair enough, but that wasn't my argument.

Perhaps you misunderstood my point in A), because your reply mostly agrees with what I said. The belief that science can expose all answers is an assumption. A belief. Certainly science has been enormously successful from a utilitarian point of view. Certainly it would be unnecessarily restrictive of science to assume

I'm a humorless robot and comment sections are were subtle humor goes to die.

The application of the scientific method requires assumptions; that is, structures assumed without any evidence. Faith, as you define it, is rather quite necessary.

Yet A) the assumption that continued application of the scientific method will answer all possible questions is at best just that, an assumption...at worst, it's not very consistent with other assumptions; and B) you assume merely because a religious person has a possible reply that this is the reply they always use.

That's not the mainstream position of Catholicism, nor has it been for hundreds of years. It's closer to the position of Protestants but their views are not so easily distilled into a sentence. Neither supports atheism as a position, of course, but also largely neither aggressively proselytize as both regard all

It's not the primary goal of most mainstream Christian religions; at the level of codified ethics, at least, they aim to peacefully coexist, even with atheists. Of course many do not understand or willfully ignore this; feel free to call them militant in their proselytizing or aggressive denunciation. Also, while not
