I used to think my wife was pretty smart - speaks four languages, has a broad and deep knowledge of antiques, fairly wizard at maths, etc.
But look what she married. Yeesh.

Margaret Hamilton - she programmed Apollo 11 computer without a single bug.
Here is she with her Apollo code

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

Ha! A critic of Ayn Rand here?? What's not to like?
Apart from her awful writing and childish philosophy, nothing.

A human person who identifies as a woman. It’s really Not as complicated as you guys like to pretend that it is.
