I also love the "ANIMALS DO IT/DON'T DO IT" argumentation in general because it's just such a bad argument.(Also animals do the damndest things)

Animals eat other animals alive on a regular basis.

Hey, at least they don't also throw in the whole "well, in enlightened countries like Japan..." part. Not to long ago there was a discussion on the forums for the Anime Con I work at about the ban on Loli stuff in the con. It was a huge long screed about how its just drawings and how this is an Anime Con and celebrates all aspects of Japanese culture and loli is part of the culture. How kid loving is a "accepted part of Japan" becauase Lolicon is so popular over there. I wish I had saved it because it was some glorious "anime is real Japan" stuff.

A store has just opened in New York City that offered free husbands. When women go to choose a husband, they have to follow the instructions at the entrance:

“You may visit this store ONLY ONCE! There are 6 floors to choose from. You may choose any item from a particular floor, or may choose to go up to the next floor, but you CANNOT go back down except to exit the building!

So, a woman goes to the store to find a husband. On the 1st floor the sign on the door reads: Floor 1 - These men Have Jobs

The 2nd floor sign reads: Floor 2 - These men Have Jobs and Love Kids.

The 3rd floor sign reads: Floor 3 - These men Have Jobs, Love Kids and are extremely Good Looking.

“Wow,” she thinks, but feels compelled to keep going. She goes to the 4th floor and sign reads: Floor 4 - These men Have Jobs, Love Kids, are Drop-dead Good Looking and Help With Housework.

“Oh, mercy me!” she exclaims. “I can hardly stand it!” Still, she goes to the 5th floor and sign reads: Floor 5 - These men Have Jobs, Love Kids, are Drop-dead Gorgeous, help with Housework and Have a Strong Romantic Streak.

She is so tempted to stay, but she goes to the 6th floor and the Sign reads: Floor 6 - You are visitor 71,456,012 to this floor. There are no men on this floor. This floor exists solely as proof that you are impossible to please. Thank you for shopping at the Husband Store.

To avoid gender bias charges, the store’s owner opened a Wife Store just across the street.

The 1st first floor has wives that love sex.

The 2nd floor has wives that love sex and have money.

The 3rd through 6th floors have never been visited....

Most of the people in my Facebook list are posting Merry Christmas stuff, Bible verses if they're Christian, what's on TV, nice stuff like that.

One guy has posted a really long rant about the Bible and how Christmas is fake and everyone who celebrates it either relgiously or seculary is a big dumb idiot. His reasoning seems to be based on the story of Noah and a misunderstanding of the symbolism in Relevation (he seems to think that the bit about Jesus as a lamb sacrificed for sin means that God is actually a goat? No idea how he got to that). That's all this guy seems to post is :smug: atheist stuff - because taking a day off to be nice and respectful and pleasant is too much apparently.

Not to mention it's always the Bible he keeps misunderstanding and mocking, but whenever there's a islamic terrorist attack, he's quick to post how great muslims are and how no-one should ever question them ever. I'm tempted to post "that's nice, now do the koran" whenever he posts another long :smug: the Bible r/atheism copy/paste job.

On the plus side, seeing everyone happy and enjoying the holiday is a really :3: feeling.

I think you might be projecting a bit. Usually atheists like that are rebelling against their own upbringing, so the only religion they see as bad is their family's.

As someone who was a hardcore douchebag atheist in his late teens and early twenties, he's not projecting. The extreme anti-Muslim and anti-feminist leanings of huge swaths of the "community" are what turned me away from it, thankfully.

This guy is unusual - he posts a lot of "edgy atheist" stuff, denies stuff like the fact that not all Christians are young earth creationists, that Christians have been motivated to make valuable advances in science, the arts and other discplines because of their faith, mocks summarised versions of Bible stories without actually knowing the text, your basic r/atheism stuff, but then he's always defending muslims and the koran?

Also on my friends list, I have a muslim guy who thinks that islamic terrorism and ISIS is all made up by the media to discredit muslims (he seems to think that IS either isn't real, or is a peaceful country and the media makes up all the crimes against humanity) - he also posts crisis actor memes and thinks that Tila Tequila is being targeted by the illuminati for exposing the truth about the New World Order. (This is an actual conspiracy theory - a few years ago, Tequlia had an OD and suffered brain damage, and now writes word salad online. It's pretty sad, but there are people who think she's speaking the truth, because I guess the illuminati lets reality TV stars in now). He also thinks that the Paris attacks weren't real. I.....don't know.

However, even though men can act feminine, the opposite is not true. Women cannot act masculine. For one, they just don’t have the physical strength to intimidate men. But more importantly, they do not have the masculine emotions to the same degree men do. Women can be slightly masculine to a point (they also have some testosterone, but once women are confronted with men, their aggressiveness and assertiveness disappears. They are biologically wired to be submissive to dominant men who are attacking them. Of course women can be trained to pretend to be masculine, the same way that a parrot can be trained to talk. But they don’t have those same competitive emotions as men.

Naw, if you're brown that overrides the whole making GBS threads on women / gays thing. I've witnessed people protect sexual predators because they were non white and "from another culture" while trying to molest people in the middle of trying to get school assignments done. Basically if you're not-white that's your free pass in extremist sjw circles.
