Political correctness is a doctrine, fostered by a delusional, illogical
minority, and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which
holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd
by the clean end.
Most of
the time I spend time trying to understand why an otherwise
intelligent person could come to such unsupported conclusions about some
things. It's as if their logical thinking breaks down, and is no longer
around when faith steps into the room.
That's exactly how I feel about "God". I cannot grasp why otherwise
intelligent, rational people -- especially techies -- suspend their common
sense to believe in an invisible man in the sky.
I welcome a debate with anyone here who claims that believing in god(s) is
somehow "different".
