So, we're starting to see the first angry de transitioners going into the system now. It's a start. Hopefully more will follow.
As much as I loathe religion, I do think it's had its place in keeping peoples nastiest behaviour in check and rendered certain things taboo so far fewer people have indulged themselves. It seems anything goes now, which is just degrading society tbh. What goes on consensually behind closed doors is fair enough and tolerable, but it's now influencing every aspect of the social sphere and that's harmful. Nobody can demand that everyone believes the same thing, that only happens in places like North Korea. We have freedom of thought here, if not expression.
Religion also teaches that individuals aren't the centre of their own universe. It teaches humility, selflessness and sobriety and self control. These are all utterly unfashionable now and treated with contempt. This is how far down the road we are now. We're back in the rutting, debauched, abusive, pedophilic days of the Roman Empire. I'm not even exaggerating. The only thing missing is slaughter for fun.
I don't like religions for how they all treat women, but the deeper philosophical aspects are meaningful and can benefit all.
