The seven or eight trans women in pro sports have become the new "satanic panic" of our time.

So, men and women do have physiological differences that could lead to unfair advantages in sports. I won't argue with that. However, why is this the business of the government? Could someone let me know? Sure does seem like wasteful use of government resources to be stressing over sports teams. If the sports folks are so concerned about gender, then let the sports folks handle gender. Let the overarching leagues or whatever (I'm in no way a sports person) make rules and regulations that affect the different teams.

We have to remember that many factions of settlers who came to this country were deeply conservative/religious and that still appears in our societal attitudes today.

Ah yes, religion, controlling and oppressing people for thousands of years. What is it about religion that is so sticky? They do a really good job at exploiting people's fear of the unknown. But there must be more than just that.

Save Christianity? I thought Pope Bob was going to do that.

White Jesus is so handsome. And I didn’t know he had ink. Is that his mom?

I think it is absolutely the purview of government to protect the rights of the people. "You can't fire someone based on race" seems like exactly the kind of thing the government should be doing. Unfortunately, it seems like we have done mental gymnastics so the rights being protected are "You can't hold me accountable for my hypocrisy and bigotry."

Why is Jesus always white? His region of birth dictates that he must have been brown.

I don't understand people who care about where others pee, so long as it's in a place connected to sewage.

Whatever, mister "I don't pee on trees."
