I have many problems with the sect of a religion that doesn’t incorporate the science, empiricism and skepticism of the Enlightenment into an intellectually wholesome belief system.

Instead of “too soon”, can we start saying “too late”?

Uh...suppliments, period tend to be backed by extremely questionable science. Usually none. Because they’re largely just a scam.

Maybe we could find someone who has actual political qualifications though? And who hasn’t spent a significant chunk of their career promoting pseudoscientific garbage?

Uh...political views ain’t a protected class. They’re extra-not a protected class when you peddle them on company time in way that damages productivity and lends itself to a hostile work environment.

Excuse me, our president is the most opposed to domestic violence. No one else in history has ever been more opposed to it than him.

Sure, but I think that, whatever else, we can probably agree that “we have the right to abuse people as we see fit” is several degrees more extreme than “we don’t want to employ people where it conflicts with the values of our organization”.

Heavenly Father is a dick.

Joe really set his followers up for it though.

Disparage away. Even by religious standards, that shit is incredibly stupid.

But they baptize dead people...

Ah Mormons, never above lying for the lord...

Like ok, I’m not really shocked or bothered that someone might think that, but why say it? Particularly, why say it then? I’m not sure what an appropriate time would be to express that...but it sure wasn’t then.

I agree with you completely on the wedding cake nonsense. As for employment, this is talking about a special situation, in this case a church, that isn’t directly applicable to a typical for-profit business.

It never fails to amuse me when they suggest that we be afraid, or repent or whatever. It’s like they really can’t wrap their heads around the idea that a whole lot of people just don’t believe in their special friend. And telling us to be afraid of something we don’t even believe in isn’t just ineffective, it’s…

This sounds like a parody of a Trump crony.

Because there is no legitimate reason to feel uncomfortable about homosexuality (and the belief that there’s something wrong with it has, and continues to cause massive harm, see also: Mike Pence). It’s a bit like thinking that people with darker skin aren’t quite as human as you, or that the Holocaust didn’t happen.

The clickbait website? Are they still around? Haven’t seen much of them in a while.

I mean, they could always come back with better apologetic arguments. Maybe not “good” ones, but at least a bit less silly than Pascal’s Wager.

You have fun with that. I was talking about religious arguments.
