It is reasonable/rational to be theist.

Anybody want to debate this?

That's sort of ambiguous isn't it?

Being theistic certainly doesn't guarentee reasonableness.

I think, if only. I can be really stupid. My theism can be really stupid.

I would think you would have to be more specific.

@ADreamOfLiberty

you're the one who asked

"how do you solve the issue of (gender) dysphoria ?"

that's like asking

"how do you solve the issue of homosexuality ?"

Dysphoria is defined as dissatisfaction. It's not a sexual orientation, it's stress.

That's correct, the dictionary definition is:

dysphoria: a state of feeling very unhappy, uneasy, or dissatisfied.

It would be fair to say that the existence of transgender people has caused a severe dysphoria among MAGA people.

You are suffering from Transgender dysphoria, and we are just trying to help.

We are telling you to just leave these people alone, and focus on your own life, because we care and want to alleviate your suffering.

Please, let us help you overcome your Transgender Dysphoria.

That's nothing short of an ignoratio elenchi circular argument that is tantamount to an appeal to mockery. 

You clearly lack the temperament required of mature civil discourse. Why are you even here, other than the obvious (trolling)!?!

some are and some are not

which specific flavor of theism are you prepared to defend ?

think of it this way

do you believe NANABOZHO is the one true creator of all things ?

why not ?

are you perhaps UNconvinced ?

or are you just an evil mean spiteful person who hates NANABOZHO ?

have you spent your entire life thinking about how NANABOZHO can not possibly exist ?

or do you rather simply not care if NANABOZHO is real or not ?

furthermore,

if someone told you that all morality and goodness can only come from NANABOZHO and without NANABOZHO the world would be pure chaos

would you think that person is probably insane ?

That is quite the non-sequitur, what is the point of this mess, and what does it have to do with the subject of Burden of Proof.

the "burden of proof" is quite obviously on the claim that NANABOZHO is the one true creator god

do you believe NANABOZHO is the one true creator god ?

are you perhaps UNconvinced ?

or do you think that people who DON'T believe in NANABOZHO have a "burden of proof" that somehow requires them to EXPLAIN WHY they don't believe in NANABOZHO ?

Is this assertion a claim you are making?

Yes

the burden of proof falls into the side that is making the claim. 

There are two assertions most atheists make.

1) The Burden of Proof is on the Theist.

2) Assertion number 1 is not an assertion.

"Oh no, you don't understand, we don't hate them, we just don't think they should be allowed to exist"

Dysphoria shouldn't be allowed to exist when we have advanced medical technology far beyond chopping body parts off.

Only a sadist would believe otherwise.

you're the one who asked

"how do you solve the issue of (gender) dysphoria ?"

that's like asking

"how do you solve the issue of homosexuality ?"

Dysphoria is defined as dissatisfaction. It's not a sexual orientation, it's stress.

I'm asking about the dysphoria. Are you encouraging that no help is to be given to those that seek it in ridding of the problem?

i already answered that question

if they want help they should get help, just like anyone else

if they don't want help, leave them the fuck alone

Amber seems to have ran away from my question.

If you don't want to help better people, that's your business .

As far as your subjective judgement over me on this topic of transgenders, that's all your assumption.

You haven't proved anything on me in regards to this subject.

But you're entitled to a bias view, keep this up as you have.

@Sidewalker

I see, and what makes you qualified to "get rid of dysphoria"?

Well, they do seem really obsessed with "helping" trans people, but what really bothers them is that trans people exist. It confuses their sexual attraction dichotomy of male and female, because they find trans women attractive and they cant make sense out of it and just want the feelings to go away.

This retort is no surprise coming from you.

[Sidewalker] Two weeks before the 2020 election, Trump insisted that Barr arrest Biden and his family, Barr refused.

You believe that Double_R?

The question is about getting rid of dysphoria. 

This is not what I'm asking. The question is about getting rid of dysphoria. Are you encouraging not to help people that don't want the dysphoria that are seeking the help ?

Drop the bias and address this.

i already answered this

(IFF) someone wants help or therapy or something (THEN) they should be free to seek help or therapy or something

HOWEVER,

it is a bit ridiculous to ASSUME that every single person who is trans thinks it's some sort of major problem that must be solved

Here's an idea, let them deal with their life, and you deal with yours. 

That's a pretty selfish way to build a society, where you leave the weak to fend for themselves....

I tell you what. Figure out how to solve gender identity dysphoria. Let us know.

That's the point of this topic. Stay on topic. 

You and these transgender topics. Do you know somebody personally that's a transgender or something? Somebody close to home is that it?

Does this person have the dysphoria? I'm sure the person would appreciate your construction resolution in regards to the topic, to the topic, to the topic.

We thank you.

When you really press them about why it bothers them so much, they tend to talk about it as if it's contagious, I think that is very telling.

The growth curve is identical to a contagion.

for reasons (A), (B), and (C)

i'm pretty certain all of those things were happening long before the term "gender identity" 

Don't folks commit suicide over gender identity?

If that's not a crisis,I don't know what is .

I thought that other than a few of the dinosaurs, no one made albums anymore.

It's a roast of the President

Oh cool, so you think Trump is the legitimate sitting president. Weird take, but ok.

Cool, so you won't have to worry about Trump in Ukraine, or the sea of American flags on J6.

Pretty sure they were not waving Ukrainian flags.

Maybe you will be more welcome in Ukraine. I heard Congress cares more about them than Americans, even waving their flag patriotically during a Congressional session.

Correspondence dinners are the same as the Oscars. It's all for show and to make fun of low class Americans.

Even the snakiest of journalists thought it was in poor taste, and groaned audibly, as it will cost Biden the election by being way too out of touch with America.

America is just about done with the elite upper class fucking up the country for average working Americans. "Let them eat cake" isn't working anymore.

I dont care how people identify.

Join the club. I couldn't tell you the name of a single top ten song in  any music genre.  The only recent names I would know in the music industry would be because of social media drama and not their music. LOL  I did go down the list of the first 5 songs and clicked on the links , I couldn't get past the first 20 seconds on each one. I'm a  three piece band with a singer music lover. Bands like SRV, led Zeppelin, ZZ top etc. Pure fucking talent. But that's just me. People like what they like and good for them. 

Biden was making jokes about putting his political rival in prison at the WH dinner.

Even the Democrat journalists moaned at the poor taste.

The polls show it.

If you were being sarcastic, fine. But if you were being serious, all I read was a whole lot of sophomoric banality. 

For starters, there is no missing dollar.

3x10=30

Minus the 5 gives us 25$ which is what they are paying

So then the bellhop goes, and gives them 3 dollars to split, which equals 28. The bellhop keeps 2, which is 30.

Curious to know how you all saw it.

You must contact the police about this ASAP it isn't a joke anymore. This is actionable. I already thought it was his previous thread but this is too much, he may convince someone else to do it either way. - Ratman

Does Norwegian Law allow us to say Ratman is a whack job drama queen.

The greater whack job is this thread.  See 3RU7AL vid to see how whacky it can get with philosophy in regards to the label God { clearly not well defined from the get go }.

When does philosophy go whacky?  This thread is good { God } example.

Heaven > God > Aborted Child{?} as if a fetus is breathing child.

Philosophy  can get whacky for sure, and religous God chatter puts whacky icing on top of whacky philosophy.

Which came first whacky philosophy or whacky religion?

Which has more quacks participating. Philosophy or Religion?

The OP is illegal

I honestly don’t see how.

You are helping a highly potential terrorist get away with it. This is his manifesto. You must understand he can even convince someone else to do it with this.

Lot of conclusions there that I’m not seeing reflected in the post. I don’t agree that this is an attempt to convince someone to engage in a school shooting, but I’ve posed this to the other mods for consideration.

Need to kill a political opponent? Well you could send your goons to "convict" him and then he just happens to die in custody, or you could "convict" him and then let the assassins go after him.

You know, whatever works. Just remember USA is always democratic and the people the Pentagon doesn't like never are!

P.S. Unlike Underdog's misinformation, this is based in fact.

It's a little strange, do you guys ever talk about Canadian things?
