One symptom is the appetite for the inquisitional machinery of doctrinal enforcement, even in secular sphere: attestation of virtue, denunciations of heretics etc
Paraphrasing some smart person: Atheists are dull... The only thing they want to talk about is God.
"Feminism means dismantling society’s toxic ideas about what fatherhood looks like, so it’s socially acceptable for a woman to be the primary breadwinner while a man stays home with his kids," writes Emma Roller at "Splinter" in response to Fox's "Men in America" series. "It means ending mental health stigmas, so that men can go to therapy before they feel like they must resort to domestic violence or suicide. It means tearing down rape culture, which hurts women, but often hurts men in more insidious ways, too. Ultimately, it means dismantling gender completely."
Still, it’s worth pointing out that we can’t expect non-believers to care about this stuff if we don’t care about it ourselves. It’s entirely possible that Vanessa Romo, who made the whopper of a mistake about Easter, was raised as a Christian, but so badly catechized that she didn’t have the elementary facts straight.
Still can't find the chasing video, Sixclaws, but that reminds me of what I said in 2015, here, about Edith Hamilton's version of the Daphne & Apollo myth:
...she goes to a LOT of effort to point out, in Daphne's story, that contrary to Ovid's account, she didn't need any supernatural incentive to run from Apollo, because it would be very strange for ANY girl not to run like mad from a male stranger who wouldn't take no for an answer, especially in a millennium where "honor killings" were very much the rule and not the exception. Also, as Ovid didn't mention in that story, but Hamilton did, the only way rape victims could avoid that killing was to somehow hide the pregnancy and then kill the baby at birth or leave it to starve. HOWEVER, at the end of the story, Hamilton somehow saw fit to include the same disgusting cheerful sign-off that Ovid wrote. WHY? It would have worked just as well had she left out the last sentence.)
Here's what I mean (this is taken directly from Hamilton's book):

But.. Why is water wet? It's a bit more complicated than that

Sometimes someone just have to research on the obvious in order to have a valid point to stand on.

Ninety of the finest seconds in the history of cheese rock.
The drummer's right foot sells the entire bridge. The synth solo is convincingly pompous. Ironically, the weakest player is the guitarist.
Thirty years later, I still think of it as the 'new album.'

Oh fuck... FORTY years later.

30, 40 years, at this point what difference does it make? as our millennials would say, that's all ancient history.
Who dates millennials?
