"Any attempt to challenge someone else’s ideas is now frequently met not with evidence or reasoned defense, but by labeling the challenge (and often the challenger) as racist, ableist, transphobic, and the like. "

Try something more than just labeling me a troll[quite "dehumanizing" of you!] without any evidence. If you want to actually debate anything, I would have no reservations. Your comment is exactly a reflection of the behaviors of the people who she is suing.

A good response for people in the UU church who don't like the infiltration of "gender woo" (your words) is to start a new tribe that actually has good standards with regard to "reason". The bible, and other major religious texts, are some of the most irrational works of literature created by humanity. To declare them "sacred", and to revere them, and then get upset that "woo" is taking over is ridiculous. I have enough "self-respect" and "decency" not to apologize for a book of torture and slavery while simultaneously being outraged by people who want to police our pronouns.

Incoherent and self-destructive notions of "tolerance" and "equality" are the "liberal values" of UU that ultimately allowed it to be poisoned by the gender fascists.

But as I said, I sympathize with her fight, particularly if libel is involved.

If you can't handle my opinion, you go away. I'm not going anywhere.
