The point is all the trump supporters claim to be good Christian folks. Yet their constant abuse of Biden having dementia goes against several of the main Christian values. Such as.

Generosity – This is the core Christian value of being KIND and unselfish,

"The generous will themselves be blessed, for they share their food with the poor." – Proverbs 22:9

Love – Love is a fundamental characteristic of who God is and it’s a value that is to describe His children as well.

"We love because he first loved us." – 1 John 4:19

Respect – A Christian value is to be conscious that God has created all people in His image. As a response, we show respect to all.

"Show proper RESPECT to everyone, love the family of believers, fear God, honor the emperor." – 1 Peter 2:17

And so on.

We're by no means all Christian. I shoot competitively, and reading Biden's gun platform made it crystal clear who I had to vote against.

Learning how to respect others is part of life. Those who judge Christians for their beliefs are no better than the people they don't like who judge them. Regression is when you go back to behaviors and systems that have been proven time and time again to fail and harm people. Possibly it's the dope everyone's smoking that makes them unaware that their choices bring forth consequences. I know they cry bloody murder after making stupid decisions that have disastrous outcomes. Just look at George Floyd, crying like a bitch and begging for his life after voluntarily taking deadly substances. His choices had consequences, so does behaviors like sleeping around, eating too much or not accepting the body God gave you. There's actually a roughly 2,000 old book that highlights what happens when you behave badly. It figures the Devil would keep the sinners from it.

remember that English is split between descriptivism and prescriptivism. the meaning of words change and evolve over time, as does everything else.

Gravity in a thousand years is still going to be gravity, 90 degrees fahrenheit will be 90 degrees fahrenheit tomorrow, and the word gender is a biological noun, not an adjective for "MEHFEELZ".

Just because you feel chilly does not change the fact it is 83 degrees and the sun is shining.

I reject sociologists redefining scientific classification.

Where you aware that the main scientist and author responsible for making rules about transsexuals in the USA DSM-V manual was overruled by political hacks inside of the psychiatric industry to reclassify transsexuals to be not mentally ill. The main guy who is the de-facto authority was overruled and Twitter then tried to ban him for speaking his mind. You'd figure the author of the rules and sections would be listened to, but nope. It was decided it would be more politically correct to reclassify a mental disorder as not being a mental disorder. Something to ponder with all these "evolvements" taking place.

I am fine with Gender dysphoria not being a medical condition, it makes public policy discussion very simple.

If it is not a medical condition it does not require medical treatment or binding public/private accommodation. /endoftopic

Logic however doesn't really work to well on Liberals. They've just spent the last 4 years learning that wishful thoughts and personal feelings aren't reality. Some are just starting to come around to realize facts and logic are what define reality. I'm not sure how long it'll take them to learn hundreds of millions of years of biology, but at least we know they are capable of learning ... slowly.

yeah, step 3 of that proof is wrong, since (A^2)^1/2 is not the same number in all instances. (A^2)^1/2 = ± A.

sociologists are not reclassifying science. you are grossly misinformed. get an education plz.

sex and gender are two separate things. sex is biological, while gender is social/behavioral.

this is 6th grade sex ed information.

when you get to college level stuff you really realize how messy nature really is.

2% of humans are born with ambiguous genitalia. around 2% of humans are also born with swapped gender identities. There is literally a scale for genitalia ambiguity called the Quigly Scale. there are multitudes of ways this stuff gets fucked up, hormonal imbalances, missing chromosomes (X0), duplicated chromosomes (XYY, XXY, XXYY, XYYY...).

if your chromosomes can be fucked up, so can the balance between your mind and body.
life is messy, deal with it.

you guys claim to love science, except when things get complicated...

Science is not right on the first try, Math had to go through HUNDREDS of years of changes to get where we are now. try doing multiplication with Roman numerals if you don't believe me.

also, gravity is not same, hundreds of years ago, newton thought gravity was an intrinsic force, but we now know that it is actually curves in space time, not a force.

remember electron shells? shits not real, quantum mechanics explains the phenomenon better.

The proof is from 1984 dumbass, 2+2=5 because big brother said so.

I am not adopting the circa 2009ish re-defining of gender, the old one worked just fine for me. Thanks for playing.

I am not interested in your hormonal issues or your entitlement to dictating what my feelings on the matter should be.

Either they have a medical issue, or they do not.

If I am expected to make a legal accomodation in matters of my business or obligatory behavior/speech etc. that needs to be factually, scientifically based and defined.

When you are legislating peoples obligations in matters of accomodations, insurance, etc "MEHFEELZ" does not warrant the force of law behind it.

gender and sex have been two separate things since the early 80's not 2009.
welp guess we know where you stand when it comes to science. As an American, i respect your right to be wrong and grossly uninformed.

Sounds like you need a blunt and a hooker. I also don't think God would be happy you saying George Floyd was "crying like a bitch." Hypocritical since you said it's important to respect others.

Science is science, Biology is biology _______fill in the blank_____ studies/sciences is community college nonsense and neither studies or science.

GEN'DER, noun [Latin genus, from geno, gigno; Gr.to beget, or to be born; Eng. kind. Gr. a woman, a wife; Sans. gena, a wife, and genaga, a father. We have begin from the same root.
1. Properly, kind; sort.
2. A sex, male or female

You aren't even referring to a consistent group when your arguing, your grouping birth defects, hormonal imbalances & gender dysphoria all in to the same group and shifting between them to justify your nonsense.

what the fuck, gender and sex IS biology. are you dense? how can biology both be real science and not real science? where are you even getting that definition?

"The historic meaning of gender, ultimately derived from Latin genus, was of "kind" or "variety". By the 20th century, this meaning was obsolete, and the only formal use of gender was in grammar.[5] This changed in the early 1970s when the work of John Money, particularly the popular college textbook Man & Woman, Boy & Girl, was embraced by feminist theory. This meaning of gender is now prevalent in the social sciences, although in many other contexts, gender includes sex or replaces it.[6] Gender was first only used in languages to describe the feminine and masculine words, up until around the 1960s.[41]"

like if you're gonna make bullshit statements like "gender was redefined in 2009" back that shit up. if you are fucking up even the most simple citation and information gathering, no one is going to want to interact with you.

social science is still science, if it wasn't then all of the bitching and moaning about fascism and communism wouldn't exists because that shit is social science. Science changes over time, becoming hopefully more correct as it goes.

Merriam-Webster.

I am not saying biology is not a hard science, I am dismissing bullshit nonsense soft sciences redfining the word gender.

Soft sciences, feminist sociology etc are 99% bullshit.

soft science

noun
any of the specialized fields or disciplines, as psychology, sociology, anthropology, or political science, that interpret human behavior, institutions, society, etc., on the basis of scientific investigations for which it may be difficult to establish strictly measurable criteria.

cool, you just claimed that politics is all soft science, and as such can be hand waived away. soft science is still real science. you don't get to cherry pick parts you agree with and throw away that which you don't. although i guess people in this day and age can when they still think a virus that has had it's genome sequenced and is fucking up almost every country on earth is a hoax.

if you want to be a well rounded person, you should embrace all the different sides of science. i know i did.

Humans are a dimorphic species, gender is a noun indicating one of those data sets and no amount of puprle hair dye, nose rings and student loans is going to change that.

that statement is actually stupid, i already stated that sex chromosome abnormalities are fairly frequent in our species. i'll reiterate what i said earlier in simple terms, if your chromosomes can get mixed up, so can your brain. throwing around science terms like that looks like flailing. sexual dimorphism is how the sexes of a species are different.

very much so, like the reason transgenderism and homosexuality are a problem now is the sheer number of humans.

~3% of humans are gay and another ~1% is trans, and ~2% are intersex. back when our world population was 1 million that would only be 60k.

we have over 7.5 billion people now, putting the total of non-binary, non-heterosexual, and non-standard sex individuals at ~45 million people (there could be overlap, gay intersex, gay trans, ect).

we as a society can't brush this shit under the rug anymore. I'm not sure the Christian god would be OK with us mass murdering 45 million people, let alone 1.

these people could make up as much as 21 million Americans spread out over the 50 states.

None of those are the same thing and many individuals of those descriptions would be offended by your grouping and they are "Not a problem".

No country in western civilization is mass murdering anyone in these groups, If you want to deal with those issues your going to have to go the middle east. None of those classifications require public disclosure discussion, or identification of any kind to live there life just like anyone else, I don't see any adjustment needed for >5% of the population for a trait that I don't need to be informed about or is any of my business.

You lose support when you start assigning people tasks with that "We as a society" garbage. There is no we, I am not a collectivist and I am not in your commune.
