Ah, yes, the definite concept of Religion. All Religious people believe in the exact same things about children, and they all agree that they're awful and insignificant, that's what Religion is all about.

Religion says I have God's eternal love and support, and will have eternal bliss in heaven. Science says the universe doesn't care about me and I will eventually die and cease to exist. Which do you think is damaging?

cheerfullydrab posted:Also they forgot that Buddhism is a religion. I actually read this blog (or maybe it was even a goon here?) from a girl who worked with special needs children, and worked in Thailand for a period of time, where as you may know, Buddhism is prominent. Anyway, I guess according to the beliefs of reincarnation, if you were disabled in any way, be it mentally or physically, it was seen as punishment for something you did in your past life. Because of such, many people with severe disabilities go without much needed care or are abused and it's justified because that person did something so terrible in their past life. Anyway, that's what your post made me think of, though I wouldn't claim to have any personal deep understanding of any religion.

karl fungus posted:Why the gently caress do people think there is one single poorly defined "Science" group set up against some equally vague "Religion" group? Because some people (increasing in number as you approach the American Southeast and probably in other countries' equivalent redneck havens) view the world as a very stark black and white contrast with nothing in between. Something's either with them or against them. Hence, "science" versus "religion" is perfectly valid in their eyes because of course all religions believe the same things and of course all scientists will tell you the same things. tl;dr: stupidity

Is she supposed to be all those bad things because she's a girl, or a child, or a human being or what? My first thought was that she had a disability of some kind and the "science" and "religion" columns had been somehow switched around because i've seen "special needs children are angels/a gift from God" a lot too.

Clearly the fact that she's being raised by r/atheists is the most damaging thing.

"Oh, life is so hard for me because I'm smarter than you." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2esfW4gBNao Although I guess if one is an introvert who has a hard time in social situations, explaining that via facebook photo seems like the right venue. People overuse OCD as a punchline. "Even when I was a kid, I liked having my crayons in order by color. I'm so OCD, tee hee!" is different than "I will have an anxiety attack unless I am able to fix those out of order crayons right now"
