Yes, the comment is 'sexist' against men, and also stereotyping women unnecessarily.

Its very easy to judge but a lot harder to be judged.
If you stare long enough at an object it starts to move.
Only I and n, separate a sane person from an insane one.

In your opinion, is anyone saying that any gender is better than another gender in any subject sexism? You only seem to care when it happens one way :think:

And if it doesn't? Then men are better for the job on average than women. Thats not a tragedy, there are obvious differences between the sexes and it should not be 'controversial' to state this. On average, men will be better at physical jobs that require strength than women are, and so on :shrug:

This totally

No thats you that is. The comment made here is a general one about all men and women on a show watched by billions. If a man said such a generalized criticism about all women hed get booted off....why is it allowed to heneralized about all men as inferior to women? This comment is sexist and the majority here agree. Clearly you think the double standards are ok?

Sexism (any ism) generally includes a malicious intention, which this lacks. This man isnt being sexist towards men lol. I'm a man, I think women, in general, are better than men at lots of things. Thats not sexist either.

Oh no, he's not correcting grammar, he genuinely feels like the big guy in the sky is being disrespected here. Some religious people get really weird about their fella not getting a capital G. Truth is much like me. A soldier. Except he is a soldier of our lord and saviour Jesus Christ where as I am a soldier moulded out of polyethylene.

Just a soldier of truth pal.

The way I see it gods are about as much use as a plastic soldier in a war.
No gods where hurt in this post.
And before I get members of all religions replying to this post.
I will be judged by god or gods.
And yes I'm being funny.

If a dog is born in a stable it does not make it a horse.

As a man I don't feel threatened by women, in fact I got a lot more time for strong women then weak men.

How dare you :hmph:.

To be fair I disagree anyway. God / gods are not real but a true belief in one can embolden people to do some seriously crazy ****. ISIS leaders are non-religious but without "God", they wouldn't have an army at all. The knights of the crusades were some of the most determined warriors in history, driven by belief. "God" pushed poor young lads over the trenches to certain death. "God" is still evoked to bolster courage in Western militaries today (especially the US). The illusion of a God and an afterlife is very useful in war... it doesn't seem to matter that he isn't literally "real".

Pity your fondness for capital letters doesn't stretch to your posts, they might be a little more literate then.

Marsh. 01-03-2017 08:42 AM

"Yes, this is sexism against men"

Can we have a TiBB bot that just automatically posts this to every "the truth" thread made? Probably make things a lot easier.

but if you refuse point blank to use any other capital letters or punctuation whatsoever marsh then God! becomes all the more important.

I feel compelled to say that people have religious freedom in this country and can worship God in any way they choose - or not - without having the piss ripped out of them for it, no matter how you feel about any other statements thetruth has made. Respecting someone's right to their own beliefs is much like respecting someone's right to be openly gay, to be transgender or any of the other rights people seem ready to fight for on here, while disrespecting people's right to religious freedom.

Repsecting the right to religious freedom includes respecting the right to non-religion, and to the opinion that religious belief is illogical to the point of being ludicrous. You are free to disagree with that statement, argue against it, as vocally as you please, but no, you don't have the right to tell me what I can and can't say about religion, any more than I have the right to tell a religious person what they can and can't say.

No one is trying to stifle religious freedom. Truth and anyone else here is free to believe whatever they want to believe?

fair enough but if the truth is going to reprimand people for not using a capital "G" and disrespecting God and calling them blasphemous then he's drawing it on himself really and in effect trying to force his religious notions on others :shrug:

Blatantly insulting post which is supposed to be against the rules. Completely unnecessary.

I know I am free to disagree. I said in my original post that people should be afforded the right to their beliefs - or none.

Freedom of speech doesn't afford you the right to ridicule. And it isn't just this thread... Every time there is a mention of religion all the non-believers, atheists, agnostics etc... all band together to say how ridiculous it is, do we believe in unicorns too? All that crap. I don't think there's anyone here who has the slightest doubt where you stand because you exhaust your opinion every time religion is brought up.

To be honest I have never seen anyone on here try to force their religious beliefs on others. Quite the reverse.

Well reprimanding a non religious person for not using a capital G when typeing the word god and also calling them blasphemous is pushing their beliefs (or rules I suppose) on them. You can't be blasphemous if you don't believe in god :shrug:
