| I think I’ve become a more moral person since I’ve become an atheist. One example: my religion followed the Bible strictly, so there was a lot of homophobia going on. I could never be as homophobic as I needed to be. It’s a pretty strange thing to feel guilty about not feeling hateful, but that’s wh... |

| ^ That seems like a lot of supposition to me, especially given the extremely limited evidence/questionable source material they’re using. Most of the important Bible characters in the Gospels are male. Even Jesus’s mother isn’t given much attention which kind of sucks since she was impregnated by Go... |

| Apparently some historians believe Jesus was a family man & that he was married to Mary Magdalene, and that early Christians wrote her place as Jesus's wife out of history, as a means to diminish the power and influence of women in the church. I'm not sure I believe that though. Who knows? All ... |

That’s interesting. They certainly look very similar.
I always thought that Muhammad was less cuddly than Jesus. Of course, Jesus wasn’t much of a family man. He IS someone you’d want to invite to a wedding, though. |

| You know what the expectations for L&D are. Many women on WP experience similar challenges on top of greater risks for sexual exploitation. Making it about gender is NOT helpful. https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fnbeh.2022.852203/full Research indicates that sexual violence affects a... |

| Okay but both men and women leave the dating pool for various reasons. It’s not solely a male thing. One gender does not have it easier than another when it comes to dating. You seem to be trying to surpass specific guidelines by citing articles. |

| He seems okay-looking. It depends on how he behaves. I’m not into athletes, especially ones who are the best, and probably wouldn’t date one for reasons. |

| Young men today feel they must be six feet tall, make six figures, and have six inches downstairs to get a girlfriend—so many have given up trying. The last guy I dated was none of those things. Well, I don’t know about what he had going on “downstairs.” He was probably around 5’6 and made 5 figure... |

| So far, I agree with what he’s saying - that morality is innate. I don’t think think that the Golden Rule influences human behavior so much as the Golden Rule was influenced BY human behavior. Being decent is beneficial from an evolutionary perspective. |

| People often assume that atheists are less moral, but evidence demonstrates that this is not the case. [D]ata from the Federal Bureau of Prisons suggest that atheists are far less likely to commit crimes than religious people, and globally the least religious countries have the lowest crime rates.
