Teaching what you believe to your children isn’t brainwashing. Actively denying opportunities to learn from outside sources, e.g. universities, other religions, etc., can be construed as a mild form of brainwashing, but that term is used VERY loosely nowadays to describe teaching anyone anything you disagree with.

A simple “No thank you, we’re not interested” is enough. If they come back later it’s because it’s a brand new pair and they don’t know your door was knocked on previously.

As with Mormons and Scientologists, once a person decides to leave the Jehovah’s Witnesses they are often shunned and ex-communicated from their immediate circle.

In which states are birth control like this illegal?

In what specific sentencing scenarios is this choice being offered? Because your entire argument hinges on knowing that and I don’t think you do.

My friends and I doorbell ditched people. *PLOT TWIST* We only did it to people we knew and we always left cookies for them.

YAAAAAAAHSSSSS!

You can’t spell “fun” without “fundamentals.”

I can see how someone would slide into this kind of behavior with the best of intentions and suddenly finding themselves doing things that would have left them appalled just a few years prior. Regardless, allowing that to happen with the consequences being a mere reassignment? That’s irresponsible and sends exactly…

This is being blown out of proportion. Yes, the kid was a dick. Yes, McDonald’s probably fired him for PR reasons. But seriously everyone has had crappy customer service for one reason or another and almost everyone vents about it on whatever social media outlet is their favorite that week. The only reason this got…

I’m going to take the unpopular opinion and say I don’t see anything glaringly wrong with this. There are lots of VERY sensitive nuances that should definitely be handled with care, but overall I don’t see it as a huge problem. If they want the deal, they take it. If they don’t, they get 30 more days of free room and…

Yes, Trump is an idiot. No, the GOP doesn’t have any feasible plan in place to replace Obamacare. BUT, can we please roll back the “MILLIONS UNINSURED” rhetoric long enough to understand what it means below the surface?

And would it blow your mind to learn that I’m a trans man? Would you then assume I picked up some sort of male entitlement from the transition? What if I told you I was a woman? What would you accuse me of then?

You can think about me whatever you want. All you’re doing is letting your ignorance show. “You’re a shit person.” You know exactly one thing about me and that makes me a shit person in your view. I’m guessing you’ve either never married or been married multiple times.

It makes zero sense not to allow competition. Imagine if other industries were regulated that way! “I’m sorry, Miss, but your car insurance doesn’t cover you if you’re out of the state.” WHAT?

Make it happ’n Cap’n!
