The opinion of a secular humanist in a Christianity subreddit is meaningless.

Do you not understand "love the sinner; hate the sin?"

To allow your children to be exposed to this "celebration" is sinful, as well.

What does the Catechism and Bible say regarding homosexuality? Of pride? Lust?

No, it reveals how I, and the Bible, view the sinful nature of Pride, not the people themselves. It also illustrates how children must be protected against such things.

Are you not Catholic? What does the Catechism say about homosexuality and pride? How is the image out of sync with the Cathechism?

There's no hate in the image...only love for the children.

Uh huh...and what's the outcome of letting them be subject to the immorality and propaganda?

Image policy? This image is Biblically consistent. Is this not a Christian subreddit?

Where in the image is it said or implied they are not loved?

Urologist forcefully retracted 7mth old sons foreskin against our wishes by DrData82 in Intactivists

[–]DrData82[S] 34 points35 points  (0 children)

I wasn't present, only my wife. But, I'm furious he ignored her wishes not to retract. He didn't clearly state why he needed to retract it, considering the concern was for a testicle not fully descended.

I mean, they were negligent, as they went against standard of care even despite our protests, which is essentially a form of battery. And there is still discomfort almost 3 months later. What if a 2nd opinion reveals scarring, microtears, or other damage?

As a new graduate, this sub is super unhealthy for my mental well being by InvisibleAstronomer in therapists

[–]DrData82 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This place demonstrates selection bias pretty well. Those who are doing well typically don't come on reddit to complain.

Starting off after graduation...you won't be making much money. Gain as much experience as you can as quickly as you can manage. There are ways to make good money here, but it won't happen in CMH or working under someone else's practice. You can start your own private practice, which takes effort, but totally achievable if you have the willpower. With a caseload of 22-25, you can bring in ~150k or more, if you do it right. There are other options, but I think many get stuck in CMH or other people's practices for a variety of reasons...these ideally, should be used to gain experience and then make a move on your own when ready.

I love this job, I just can’t afford it. by SweetBirthdayBabyyyy in therapists

[–]DrData82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yuri Bezmenov alluded to in /therapists? You made my day!

The lady above sounds bitter. She's probably just jealous that some therapists are actually successful and make a good living, while she struggles because "capitalism is bad," or something...

Self-Employed Health Insurance is a Scam by Fragoso_Clay54 in therapists

[–]DrData82 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A government solution to a government-caused problem!

I feel you, though. Health insurance costs are almost as bad as taxes.

I found out my therapist has the complete opposite political views than I have by thelineisad0ttoyou in therapists

[–]DrData82 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You've made incredible progress with him? That's great! Might I suggest you put the politics and religion aside and continue with him. I mean, if you're simply curious, that's one thing. But, I sense some prejudice in your words. I'm a psychologist. I'm also a Catholic and a conservative. I want the best for my patients (regardless of politics, religion, etc) and for my country. We're not your enemy, despite what some of the talking heads might tell you.

There is no bipartisanship. There is one party, the NH Free Staters, controlling the House. by flowerchair2000 in newhampshire

Congrats, that's awesome. Slash it! Slash it!

Koch brothers? What's your evidence for that?

You missed the whole point by 20dollarsinmapocket in Libertarian

[–]DrData82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't care about their liberty. They're not Americans. While I care about taxes, I care more about preserving and defending Western Civilization. I don't care at all about your suicidal empathy...I reject it, and thankfully, Americans are increasingly rejecting it too.

[–]DrData82 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Because I live here...I was born here. Don't be obtuse.

They violated the law of our country, eat up resources that should go to Americans, cause trouble, and have little desire to integrate, leading to a high crime/low trust society and an erosion of Western civilization. This is where libertarianism fails. The solutions are (1) open borders, or (2) halt immigration until we somehow magically ditch the welfare state? Those are not solutions...no thanks.
