So, this bigoted teacher believes she can call people whatever she wants due to religious beliefs. In honor of that, I think we should come up with names for her, that we should be able to use freely based on our personal beliefs. According to her, it would do no harm to her.

Religion once again knocking on the door of the Constitution and BOR demanding that the implied separation of church and state violates the rights of the religious folks toward having their beliefs supersede those rights guaranteed by the laws of the land.

An argument for the slippery slope idea whereby we already have a stacked Supreme Court of conservative religious activists that are more than willing and able to reinterpret the Constitution by way of the Shadow Docket that allows them to hide the decisions they make that favors the conservatives of the nation and the religious right of whom at this very moment are waging a war of attrition against The Constitution that's blocking their efforts toward allowing the conservatives to rule the nation from a minority party status.

Conservatives already have dramatically too much power in the minority, incongruent EC and senate representation, etc.

About a year from now at SCOTUS: In deference to the teacher's sincerely held religious beliefs the names of the students are now legally whatever the teacher says they are.

These people though. Such fucking arrogance. It's just Mouth Noises, "God" won't strike you dead for being a Decent Person. FFS, *******!1!

Srsly though, how do you correct that attitude? Just more petulant Children in Adult bodies. Maybe we should start Criminally Charging some Adults as Children, ship them off to Reform School.

We have fundamentalist Christian ayatollahs on SCOTUS elevating religious butthurt over the law and other people's rights. What do you expect?

This idea of the nation's religious fundies trumping, or should I say trampling over the intent and letter of the laws of the land is encouraged by McConnell's maneuvering the Supreme Court's picks into the favor of the nation's religious right wing activists.

Seems like these folks want to test the court's political influence over how far Christian fundamentalists can encroach on the rights of the heathen, of whom they feel don't deserve to live their lives "without the guidance of a god (their god specifically) to restrain their evil ways". AND, they've picked Donald Trump of all people to shove their religious beliefs down the throats of the "unclean masses".

The religious fundies can and should live their lives as they like without having to dictate terms (via legislative strongarming) to the rest of the nation as to how they should live theirs.

For the fundies Live and Let Live just don't cut it.

Stupid. Fire the book at her. Petty, small-minded and hiding her bigotry behind the spaghetti monster* in the sky.

*probably.


However, I am uncomfortable with letting kids going through puberty make life altering decisions at that age. I know that gender changes work better if enacted prior to puberty. But is a kid that isn't deemed responsible enough to drive a car or cast a vote ready to make that choice?

If they are mature enough for that kind of decision, then why not lower the driving age, voting age and drinking age?

Blocking puberty while the individual matures intellectually is not a permanent life altering decision.

For the umpteenth time, across numerous forum threads...gender reassignment surgery does NOT happen until they are adults. Now you know. Don't be ignorant on the topic if you're going to discuss it. :rolleyes:
Isn't discussion a good way to decrease ignorance?

Discussion only works if people are open minded enough to change their views. It seems that some just go from thread to thread continually parroting their ignorance, no matter how many times they get corrected.
Why do they do that. As far as I am concerned I have stated the reason hundreds maybe thousands of times on this forum but people still don't seem to get the reason for the persistence of such ignorance. People hate themselves and do so because they were belittled as children and called ignorant. As adults we are now willing to die before feeling those feelings again.

There is a case coming soon to the SCOTUS about a moron Bremerton, WA high school coach who insisted on having a prayer vigil after every football game. Bremerton school district says that it was intimidating to the players that really didn't want to attend and felt they were compelled to stay. Of course the coach claims that it was all perfectly voluntary. School district told him to stop, he refused. He of course, became an instant celebrity of the right wing religious nut cases and thus this is now going before the SCOTUS.

I humbly suggest her name is now Anusmouth McColon. Anus for short.

So shove your attitude.
