I have a direct question for Dr. Peterson. Will you be adding this to your Christopher Hitchens: How Religion Poisons Everything File? It seems, in a completely non sarcastic way, a worthy submission.

i saw that story. 6 weeks and three days pregnant, 10 years old, referred by a doctor specializing in child abuse.

there was a comment here recently, something like 'what's wrong with 9 months of mild discomfort?' SMH.
I have had two daughters pass through age 10. No way I would let this go quietly. No way in hell.

I've posted absolutely nothing about my "disccomfort" at seeing an LGBTQIA+ flag being displayed at Utah Valley Hospital.

There is an entire message board that is largely dedicated to misreading what I write. This blog, however, is ill-suited to that effort.

Daniel's penchant for pedantry as a debate tactic is incredibly wearisome. "I didn't say I was uncomfortable with the flag, I said it was inappropriate."

Well done. PhD level debate there, Doctor Peterson. :roll: :roll: :roll: zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Usually when normal people say something is inappropriate it is triggered by a feeling of discomfort that leads them to speak out. I guess Dan is showing that he isn’t exactly normal people.

He just reflexively picks out a non-sequitur when confronted with a valid argument that he doesn’t want to engage with. It’s a skill he’s honed over decades.
