WOTMQ: One Is The Ugliest Number
Happy end o' du month, gang!!! I have a good batch for you this evening!
In general, monotheism is a problem for any society. But it really doesn't work at all when it comes to a country like America, based on the ideals of The Enlightenment, and pluralism in particular. Religious tolerance simply can't find its footing. There is no concept of "live and let live" or "agree to disagree" in the monotheistic faiths based on The Tribal War god of Abraham. Especially not when eternal torment is on the line.
But this intractable problem can also be seen in the likes of our on-going fight in Texas over abortion rights. It's not enough for the religious to shun abortion. Everyone MUST agree! Or (now) face a $10,000 fine.
More to come. Thanks gang for all your help with these videos. I couldn't do it without your help! B

Pergatory in a petticoat. 🤣🤣
Certainty is never justified.
A prime example of how some people insist on forcing their mere "religious belief" on others. They rarely admit it in their speeches and laws, but it actually boils down to their belief that a spirit, a soul, a ghost inhabits a combined egg and sperm from the getgo. There is no science involved, just an unproven belief. I opine that Carl Sagan's and Ann Druyans' essay on abortion still stands as the most rational, thoughtful, scientific approach to the issue, based on the actual biological development of the zygote, the embryo, the fetus: https://scrapsfromtheloft.com/society/on-abortion-carl-sagan-ann-druyan/ The Texas Taliban would do well to read and ponder it!
