Please just name one religion that even comes close to those values.

The werewolf of Tibet Is a woman a real women? Define real women please?

Yes I could never understand why the nuns who taught me in primary school were completely covered except their faces, even in summer.

Actually we do. There are specific laws in Australia preventing you from stoning people to death. There are employment laws that prevent you from discriminating on sexual identity. Mass genocide is illegal under Australian law. Women are allowed to instruct in schools. Slavery is also illegal under Australian law. Finally drowning babies is also illegal under Australian law.

You should be anxious if expressing hateful bigoted beliefs

@bossybill7437 I would class communism as a social political system not a religion, but yes I agree both have failed miserably.

@bossybill7437 Traditionally atheism is just a lack in the belief of god/gods not a social political system in any way shape or form. Would you consider the term of King Ferdinand II 1478 (a Catholic) of Argon a traditional moral religious value system?

@bossybill7437 Jeez no need to get narky, just a polite conversation, I don't even think our views are that far apart. All I'm saying is you don't need religious belief to have a system of morality

And that would be the free speech religions banned for 2000 years through blasphemy laws.

The werewolf of Tibet No I accept the science. I understand you think sex is binary, however our knowledge has moved on from there. Sex as it turns out is quite complicated and nuanced. There isn't just xx and xy, children are born interesex and DSD is real. I asked you to define a real women and you answered female. The dictionary meaning of female is of the sex that can bear offspring or produce eggs. My next question is do you consider a female who is infertile to be a real woman? Gothca there!!!!!!! is a bit juvenile, wouldn't you prefer having an adult discussion rather than kids point scoring?

The werewolf of Tibet Interesting use of language. Deliberately confrontational and simplistic in nature. Your points about sex and the biological facts of insemination and gestation are not disputed. You were clearly afraid to define woman as you understand it and jokingly offered some vague circular definition. Despite what you or I think gender dysphoria is a real thing recognised world wide by medical and Psychiatric organisations. I am sure you are happy in your black and white world of simplicity. In the real world things are a little more sophisticated.

The werewolf of Tibet The six most common Karyotypes. X 1 in 2000 to 1 in 5000 XX most common form of female XXY 1 in 500 to 1 in 1000 XY most common form of male XYY 1 in 1000 XXXY 1 in 18000 to 1 in 50000 births Read a current text book. Today we have genetics and DNA, we know without question that humans are born not just male and female. There at least six biological sexes. Destroyed!!!!!!! as childish as that term is in an adult conversation.

The werewolf of Tibet I am happy to go with any dictionary meaning ie Oxford,

The werewolf of Tibet I have little understanding of your requirement to immediately resort to personal abuse. Is this how you normally expect to successfully get your point across? Once again the word disorder has been dropped by medical and psychiatric associations as it is no longer universally considered to be a birth defect.
1
The werewolf of Tibet So when you say you destroy people like me, what you really meant was when holes in your argument are pointed out you resort to personal abuse and childish name calling then yeah sure you destroy all the discussions you take part in.
1
The werewolf of Tibet Can you read a dictionary? As conceded earlier a strict definitional difference between a male and a female is the ability to inseminate and gestate. A man can still be a man even if he does not have this capability and a woman can be woman even if she is unable to bear children. This nuance just seems to be unable for you to grasp. Continue with your personal slurs you have been destroyed.

@grannyannie6744 My point being Christian nuns were never described as having a draconian dress code, it just was what is was, a small sect of a particular religion and that's all that a burka or a hijab is. The vast majority of muslim women do not cover there entire body.
1
@birgittabirgersdatter8082 You didn't even read my reply. I specifically mentioned a small sect of a particular religion when talking about nuns. You then spent half your reply agreeing with me and emphasising my point. Thankyou. I have travelled through a great deal of the muslim world and from Indonesia (250 million muslims) where you hardly even see a head covering to countries like Saudi Arabia where they are far more widespread. It is be no means universal, too suggest otherwise is being disingenuous. Ad well your ignoring of the history of women's head covering in Judeo-Christian history is disingenuous
1
@grannyannie6744 Yeah that's terrible and nobody should face discrimination because of the clothes they chose to wear. I remember a couple of years ago in a supermarket listening and watching two little girls interact with their mother. The two girls were dressed in there school uniforms, just normal dresses little girls in primary schools wear all over Australia. Mum was in a full niqab and spoke to her girls in Arabic they spoke to her in the broadest Aussie accented English you could imagine and I thought how just normal that was. I have no understanding why a woman would chose to dress in a burqa, but if that's their choice then so be it.

@grannyannie6744 Why would a government that is almost universally white Christian and male with a few white Christian women in there for token value, want to destroy their own culture?
