What can we do about paedophilia?
2023-12-13 12:19
I have mentioned before that LGBT people has been mistaken for paedophiles. To understand the concept of paedophilia one first has to understand the concept of puberty.
What is transsexualism?
2023-12-09 15:34
A transperson is someone who identify with a different gender than the person is born with. This is not about individuals arbitrarily claiming to be something else.
Ideas not part of science at all
2023-12-01 12:19
There are so many ideas creationists imagine their opponents to adhere to. As I have explained before a lot of them are not part of evolution theory. Additional ones are not part of present-day science at all.
Ideas not part of evolution theory

Creationists think all science contradicting their own ideas belong to the same unified system of thought. That unified system is imagined as constructed to allow life to change over time.

Creationists have one unified system for explaining physical reality, for what they consider morality and for the supernatural. So they imagine their opponents to have something equivalent.

Far too much reasoning presupposes every single member of a group to in principle function in the same way. There are no mechanisms for making people that mentally similar. Human minds don’t replicate!

2023-10-25 11:09
Flat-earthers usually claim that gravity does not exist. It is claimed to be incompatible with how things fly. If gravity makes things fall down everything is supposed to always fall down.
Perspective in real life
2023-10-10 10:41
Something flat-earters have substantially misunderstood is the concept of perspective. It is not a natural law for light. Instead, it is a method for depicting things on a flat surface.
The myth of inborn genius
2023-09-28 11:09
I perceive genius as exceptional ability in one’s profession. Francis Galton claimed this to be hereditary. In addition to the time period’s primitive knowledge of heritability there is a great weakness in his claim.
Why the race concept is not meaningful
2023-09-27 11:01
I perceive talk about “human races” as if they are believed to have sharp borders. Within the “races” people are supposed to be genetically homogenous.
