Chippys_mittensWhat's your opinion on prostitution?
Greg ClarkeIt should be legal, safe, and taxed
Same as belief. Churches have to pay the same as everyone. They are a corporation.
SkullgridSame as belief.
how do you know someone is an edgelord atheist?
Don’t worry, they’ll tell you. They’ll crowbar it in wherever
skyehow do you know someone is an edgelord atheist?
why, the same with defensive religious people. They’ll see a criticism on churches and they will take it as a personal attack
he said that churches are taxed and regulated and whatnot, as prostitution should be too.
Maybe saying “same as belief” wasn’t good, but the rest of the comment makes it clear they’re talking about churches. Not to mention the demonisation of prostitution that comes from those churches, so i find it relevant.
Or maybe there’s other parallels you can draw between belief and prostitution, like being roped into one against your will, or maybe it being “the only option”, or being the only thing some desperate people look to for help, etc.
Well, belief used in the sense of how most “churches” use belief, as a way to indoctrinate, kind of like the modern church.
You can draw many dots and see it can be relevant to the discussion as a comparison, but it’s easier to offload the mental work to others, no?
