One of our Own Embarasses Us
#24
RE: One of our Own Embarasses Us
This is the problem with teaching religion, if you teach religious texts as fact you can't do it without showing bias towards one particular religion because they can't all be right, and if you take an objective historical view of religion you can't do it without questioning the notion of religious beliefs to begin with which is obviously off limits for religious students and parents.

I don't really see the problem with asking why Christianity wanted to silence women and saying that it's one of the biggest causes of violence in history, these things are objectively true
“The larger the group, the more toxic, the more of your beauty as an individual you have to surrender for the sake of group thought. And when you suspend your individual beauty you also give up a lot of your humanity. You will do things in the name of a group that you would never do on your own. Injuring, hurting, killing, drinking are all part of it, because you've lost your identity, because you now owe your allegiance to this thing that's bigger than you are and that controls you.”  - George Carlin
