The problem of evil is one of the best philosophical arguments in existence. All theistic responses to it are complete garbage. It’s genuinely astonishing how lazy and inadequate they typically are.

Been debating the Trinity. Suddenly, some Christians sympathize with presumed counterexamples of classical logic. It's one thing to consider examples because one is interested in the topic, but it's simply to respond to the arguments against the Trinity. Imagine the reverse.

I lean toward the "pro-choice" position. There are cases, however, where I would consider being (politically) pro-birth, like if the motivation for the abortion was simply on the basis of the fetus's sex, or that if the parents found out that the fetus was likely to be trans/gay.
