This man really was inspirational. It makes me angry thnking that polio will probably experience a resurgence due to irresponsible parents refusing to vaccinate their offspring. https://www.express.co.uk/news/us/1876938/polio-paul-dies-iron-lung-70-years/amp

STOP idealizing pastors, coaches, and teachers. Recognize that predators seek out these very positions for easy access to prey. https://www.wboc.com/news/seaford-children-s-pastor-arrested-on-child-pornography-charges/article_163b5faa-d25f-11ee-9de7-bf34ff99b516.html

What total BS. In no way are Christians persecuted in the USA. They’ve just been primed (by the Bible) to expect it, so they see it everywhere. They must not be allowed greater rights or protections than nonbelievers. #AbortSCOTUS #magicalthinking #corruption #ChristianNationalism https://www.salon.com/2024/02/23/alitos-cries-of-religious-persecution-are-a-chilling-preview-of-in-another-term/

Yesterday, I posted on another app that we need humans who are not controlled by fear of mythical deities, but compelled by compassion for their fellow man. Here is one of the responses I got:

There is no excuse, in 2024, for adults to adhere to “Christian Science.” There is NOTHING scientific about it, and it is not virtuous to reject scientific & medical advice. It is foolish - and in the case of denying medical help for a minor, it is unethical & neglectful and should be punishable by law. https://www.survivornet.com/articles/actor-val-kilmer-64-went-against-his-religious-beliefs-in-favor-of-doctor-supported-standard-of-care-while-battling-throat-cancer/?utm_source=smartnews

Disgusting religion-inspired violence against members of the community, or even those accused of being members. Where is the outrage over these violations?  https://www.lgbtqnation.com/2024/02/yemen-will-publicly-stone-crucify-10-gay-men-in-gruesome-public-spectacles/

I miss the kindness of the 1970s 😢 We are now in an age where personal rights outweigh compassion, and it is making people do ugly things. https://justthenews.com/nation/free-speech/only-two-genders-jesus-only-savior-school-district-wont-tell-court-theyre

Just gross. When my ex was a pastor, some of our parishioners tithed with their garden produce when money was short. We dressed ourselves & our kids from the thrift store. These pastors are despicable. #corrupt #pastors #church #greed https://www.boredpanda.com/church-leaders-wearing-expensive-clothes-preachersnsneakers/

Disturbing but accurate. The USA is having a serious crisis. If nonchristians value their freedom & want a modern, inclusive, empathetic nation, they’d better stop voting into office. https://www.psypost.org/2024/02/christian-nationalism-linked-to-resistance-against-redistributing-police-funds-221208 https://www.psypost.org/2024/02/christian-nationalism-linked-to-resistance-against-redistributing-police-funds-221208

Religious beliefs are no reason for vaccine exemption. Failing to vaccinate puts children at risk and reflects parental failure to protect them. #vaccines #religion #magicalthinking #danger #ReligiousTrauma #parenting #fail #accountability https://montanafreepress.org/2024/01/19/montanas-effort-to-expand-religious-exemptions-to-vaccines-prompts-political-standoff/

Authoritarianism is especially appealing to those who are engaged in Magical Thinking (religious or otherwise), uncomfortable with nuance & shades of grey. https://www.alternet.org/amp/maga-voters-want-revenge-2666983018

Religion-based misogyny must be called out & eradicated. The rest of the world should be putting and other countries oppressing women - including the - under intense pressure to join the civilized world in 2024. There is no excuse. https://www.express.co.uk/news/world/1854788/iran-flogging-woman-roya-heshmati-mahsa-amini/amp

Reality is a bitter pill when you’ve been fed a steady diet of religious fantasy. While life always was random, I felt safer when I could explain it as “God’s will” or “Satan’s handiwork.” I felt extremely exposed & vulnerable without my Cosmic Big Brother watching over me. Step by step, I learned to own my life. Divorcing religion is painful - but it’s also liberating. I love my life ♥️

Canada vows to defend its drug supply against Florida importation plan

Canada adds that importing its drugs will not solve America's drug pricing problems.
