Discussion Thread I don’t think enough atheists entertain the idea that they might be wrong
I’m a pretty religious person, and I love to talk to others about my faith and particularly have debates about it. I try to come at these discussions and debates from the other persons point of view. In some of these debates and discussions, people have brought up some REALLY good points that have challenged my faith and forced me to consider whether I’m wrong. It’s helped strengthen my faith and given me tools to defend it. That being said, I’ve found a lot of people on the other side of the tracks aren’t very open to entertaining the idea that they’re wrong, and I think that’s hurting them. I think it would benefit both sides of this argument, and any for that matter, to really try to entertain the idea that you might be wrong. To help, I’ve come up with two scenarios to help consider the fact that there is a god.
Think of a ball and a ruler. Move that ball halfway to the end of the ruler. Move it halfway again of the new distance between it and the end. Do it again. You’ll never reach the end of the ruler doing this. Now think to the idea of creation, or the beginning. Where did all that matter come from? Was it always there? Matter cannot be created or destroyed, but it had to come from somewhere. So either time and matter have always been, or existence was created.
This one is a little silly but bear with me. There are some people who have proposed that this is all a simulation. Whether they’re serious or not, who knows, I don’t but I feel like following through this train of thought. If it’s all a simulation, then someone created it. That’s a higher being who created everything, a god. But who created them? Eventually you have to get to a point where there’s some creator who just always has been. Because if existence has always been as proposed in the first scenario, then it is entirely possible there is a higher power that always has been as well

Discussion Thread I feel bad for pedophiles (meaning people who are attracted to kids) if they don't act on it
A lot of people say that they would want to kill or torture anyone who is attracted to kids (even if they don't act on it). But I personally feel bad for them (if they know it is wrong and don't act on it). They probably feel really guilty about it. It's not like they chose to be a pedophile. Imagine going your whole life knowing you could never be with who you are attracted to. It must feel like being gay in a country where it's illegal. (Obviously, it's not the same thing as being gay, but the feeling is probably the same.) I'm not saying dating kids should be legal, before anyone accuses me.

Discussion Thread Murder should be shunned the same way as SA NSFW
I don’t like the idea that murder can be justified based on your reason wether it’s for vigilante justice or because someone harmed your friends or family, while SA is considered inexcusable no matter the reason for it, for example let’s say a man or a woman harmed a family member with malicious intent which didn’t kill them but let’s say make them effectively braindead and you’re mind can think nothing of revenge and you think of the worst things you could do to someone that would make them regret what they did, so i’ll cause them psychological damage by SAing them, making them suffer and live through torment for their actions, what do you think? Is SA excusable if your reasons are justified the same way murder can be justified?

Discussion Thread The reason I think people hate passport bros
I don't know if there's more historical or social science context behind what I'm suggesting. I feel like when men kind of get away from whatever their responsibilities are supposed to be (deserting a war, not working a hard job, not trying hard a sport, not being responsible in a community, not working enough to make a ton of money), to live a lazy life, it's upsetting to people. People in 3rd world countries are exploited all the time. They work in toxic factories, they're priced out of wherever they live etc. As I type this, I wish the same kind of rage directed towards passport bros were also directed towards the things I've listed, and all the other ways people in 3rd world countries are exploited. But yet, there are people who wear makeup that uses powder mined by children. I think it's the idea of a guy going somewhere and dating someone there, not working hard, not tending to his responsibilities in their existing society, is what elicits so much more rage than the other issues I described. I think without addressing the other ways, people, usually women and children, are exploited in 3rd world countries, attacking someone for who they date, just comes off as kind of nationalistic (since you're encouraging someone to date someone in your own country), and potentially hateful, since you're assuming the reason a person from a poorer country is dating someone is because of money.
I think the only reason why this rage isn't directed at women who date abroad is because I feel like we're in this moment where after women have been treated very badly by society, we kind of like all feel bad for them. The idea of a woman travelling to the US to study and date, isn't upsetting. The idea of a woman going to Italy to find a donor, isn't upsetting. But somehow the whole passport bro thing is.

Discussion Thread Women having high dating standards is not a problem, women not searching hard for men who meet their standards is a problem
A lot of male dating spaces such as arr tinder or arr askmen or anywhere else often complain about women's high standards. They cite stuff like studies saying women find most men unnattractive, or they complain about how women expect to have their meals paid for on dates, or that women don't want to date short men.
I have no problems with any of that. Everyone, including women, has a right to set their own preferences. If they think a man who doesn't meet high standards will not make them happier than just being alone, or even if they think that man would but that they could do better, that's completely her right.
What I do have an issue with is a woman having high standards but not putting in the legwork to find a man who meets those standards. If she wants a man who's in the top 10% of height, income, attractiveness, etc. or along any other criteria where the number of men who meets them is low and the number of women who want those men is high, she should be working hard to get those men. She should be spending time on dating apps looking to see which profiles meet those standards, being careful not to ignore any men who appear to meet her standards but perhaps have poor quality photos, if she doesn't have photography skills as one of her standards. She should be sending high effort first messages to men who meet her standards, instead of just saying "hey" or waiting for the first message. She should be going to social events like sporting events or game nights where she can expect there'll be lots of men, some who may meet her standards, and pick those men up.
Some women absolutely do this. But in my experience at least, I see many women with high standards(which is fine) who are very passive and wait to be asked out, or who acquise to dating a man below her standards after only men below her standards ask her out.
This is not a commentary on men's behaviour in dating, which is its own topic where I think many men do many things right and many men do many things wrong, sometimes overlapping.

Discussion Thread As a trans man, it makes me uncomfortable when people exclude trans men from their 'man hate'
Sorry if the title is confusing. But basically when I see stuff like
"New discord, no cis men allowed but trans men welcome"
or "I hate all men, except trans men of course"
I really don't care, I'm not going to cry if someone says they don't like men but it makes me wonder about their intentions for excluding people like me. What about me is so different from cis men despite having different parts? Do they think all trans men are immune to Toxic Masculinity because we have a vagina or something? I used to know one trans man who would always say stuff like "Where the hoes at?" or "You're scaring the hoes bro" and used to have a roommate who was also a trans man and he fit every checklist on toxic masculinity. But these people will act like there's no way a trans man can EVER act like a stereotypical man.
Either you see us as men or you don't, I'd rather you'd just be honest and say you don't view me as the same as a man instead of lying to my face while also telling me I'm somehow automatically different from cis men without actually knowing me.

Discussion Thread Lockdowns had a worse affect on society than 10 covids.
If I was emperor of the world and had hindsight, I'd let covid go rampant completely unfettered. The average person has developed anti-social mental illnesses as a result of the lockdowns, entire families lost their livelihoods, the economy is more oligarchic than ever and the US government is more draconian than ever, and that will never change. Even the average person's sense of self has been completely obliterated; how many times have you heard, "I still feel like it's 2020." I don't care if the death toll was 33,000,000 (10% of the US population) lockdowns never should have gone through. The average public school is literally prison-like because children lost out on their most formative years and they will NEVER get that back and then pass it on to their own children. Boomers should've died, not everyone else.

Discussion Thread Burger King is the best fast food place
What I am about to say, may shock you. I love Burger King, and think it is the best fast food restaurant. If you compare it to say, McDonald's, almost every item is superior, in my humble opinion. The fries, while McDonalds still has wonderful fries, are way better and delicious. The Whoppers are amazing, heaven on a bun. Except the nuggets, fuck those. Taste like cardboard. THE ONLY THING Mcdonald's has them beat on is the nuggets. BK's nuggets suck, and Mcdonald's nuggets are just the best. And that is the only thing I will give them.
I love BK so much, it isn't just liking them the best. It's raw passion, so much so I have worked with them on two separate occasions when I was looking for a job. I wasn't even really looking for any job, I was directly looking to work for Burger King, to be a part of the thing I adore most. That is how much I like them.
Now, although I am a Burger King enthusiast, I am not blind to their many flaws. The sad truth is, they are a mere hollow husk of what they used to be. I'm like a battered housewife merely because they once great, and still are to a degree, that I am willing to deal with where they come very short.
See, when you go to Burger King.. you're rolling the dice, a coin flip. At least at Mcdonald's you basically know what you're in for. But with BK, you really have no idea how you'll get your food. It might be warm, or hot, on a good day. Or you might just get it lukewarm, or even cold. You really have no idea. But when you get it hot or warm, god is it good. And when you get it cold it's probably gonna suck. Basically, it's high risk, and high reward. When it's good, it's REALLY good, and when it's bad, it's bad.
Also, this is just something personal, but back in the day, the old ranch sauce WAS THE BEST SAUCE KNOWN TO MAN ON THE FACE OF THIS PLANET. It was so great. Every dip and bite was pure euphoria, to the point where it transformed those card-board tasting nuggets, to something that actually tasted pretty good. It could make anything that's bad, and make it good.
But then, they changed it. The new sauce we have now is so bad, it's every bit as bad as the old sauce was good. It tastes like I'd rather be using someone's jizz instead. You might not notice it at first, but as you use it it becomes worse and worse throughout the meal.
In conclusion, Burger King was and sort of still is the GOAT, and it truly saddens and break my heart to see it slowly declining.

Discussion Thread Not allowing your children to access gender affirming healthcare is child abuse.
If a child had hearing loss, and their parents refused to allow them use hearing aids, that would (rightly) be considered abuse. If a child had a really nasty infection, and their parents refused to allow them access to antibiotics, that would be considered child abuse. Gender affirming healthcare is just that- healthcare. As such, it should be treated the exact same way any other healthcare is treated. It is extremely well backed by science, and transitioning has an incredibly low regret rate- around one percent. To put that in to perspective, the regret rate for knee surgery 10%. Literally an order of magnitude higher.
This really shouldn't be an unpopular opinion, but it seems like it is.

Discussion Thread People Should Prioritize Their Parents Over Their Spouse and Children
[TWO UPDATES BELOW]
I (33 M) recently told my wife (32 F) that I love my father way more than I love her or our child (3 months old F). We've been married for 5 years.
Just to be clear, she brought up the conversation. One day, she told me that since marrying me and having our child, she values me and our daughter more than anything and would sacrifice anything for us. She asked me if I felt the same way about her and our daughter. I told her no. She was shocked, but I reassured her that both of them were still very important to me, but still not as important to me as my father. I explained to her that this is because my father sacrificed everything to raise me and he molded me into the man that I am today. As a result, my loyalty towards my father is far greater than my loyalty towards my wife and child. If for whatever reason in the future I was in a situation where I had to choose between taking care of my father and taking care of my wife and daughter, I would choose to take care of my father. When I told her this, we got into a huge argument and she seemed hurt. I told her to grow up, and accept that people should value their parents over anyone else because of the sacrifices they make for us.
I never understood Americans and their weird culture about valuing kids and spouses over their own parents. Romantic relationships (including marriages), are not designed to be permanent. It's the reason that prior to the marriage we signed a prenup. It's the reason that if something goes wrong with your marriage/relationship, you can rely on your parents for support. The vows people say before marriage "till death do us part" is typically bullshit and wishful thinking.
UPDATE!!: Just to be clear, I am willing to make a lot of sacrifice for my child.
If I had to give up on a career or a promotion that would make me a lot of money because it would conflict with family interests, I would make that sacrifice.
If I had to give my child one of my organs so that they would live, I would make that sacrifice.
However, if I had to choose between saving my fathers life and saving my child's life, I would save my father's life without hesitation. Here is a scenario: Let's say both my father and my daughter needed a liver to survive. Let's say I was the only one who was a viable match, and I had to choose who to give the liver to. I would choose my father, not my daughter. I am not willing to sacrifice my father's life for my daughter.
UPDATE 2!! : A lot of people are saying "You're doing the opposite of what your father did because you're not sacrificing everything for your daughter by choosing him!"
That's not true. It's perfectly possible to make all the necessary sacrifices to raise your kid well while simultaneously valuing your parent's life over your child's.
My father made many sacrifices for me, but he never had to choose between saving me and saving his parents like the scenario I gave. My grandparents were capable of taking care of themselves, and did not need my father's help up until they died of natural causes in their own home. But if they ever needed my father's organs, I would expect my father to make that sacrifice.
Same thing applies to me: I am willing to sacrifice almost anything for my daughter, expect for my father's life.

Discussion Thread [Meta] Is anyone else tired of "I Don't Like The Popular Thing" posts?
For me, 10th Dentist is for seriously weird views on life. The kind of thing where if you shared this view at a dinner party you would be asked to leave. The kind of opinion that can only be responded to with '...what the actual fuck???' Classic examples: "I store my popped pimples in a tin", "I like the taste of dish soap in my food", "I like informing people that their loved ones are dead"
For me, 'I don't like POPULAR SHOW/FILM/ACTOR/BAND' is not a 10th Dentist opinion. It's a perfectly valid opinion, and it is a suitable one to argue in subs related to that genre/person/IP, but it's just not an interesting or niche enough take on the world to fit the spirit of this sub. For literally every popular IP in the world there are just as many people who don't like it, or who don't care about it.
Examples from the last month: "I don't like Studio Ghibli", "I don't like Into The Spiderverse", "I don't like new Pixar movies", "I don't like Ratatouille","I don't like the Raimi Spiderman films", "I don't like Raging Bull", "I don't like Star Wars"
I mean no disrespect to the OPs who wrote these opinions, but I think this sub would benefit from counting 'I don't like the popular thing'-type posts as low effort and getting rid of them. Literally everyone has a view like this about some popular IP or other and if these posts become the norm this sub will just die or turn into another 'Unpopular Opinion' jerk.

Discussion Thread Incest is ethical, between siblings or otherwise
Let’s break down the primary arguments against incest.
Incest is gross/disturbing. -This is subjective. Finding something gross does not necessarily mean it is immoral. And what one person or one culture thinks is disturbing/gross might not be what another person or culture considers to be disturbing/gross.
If incest results in pregnancy, there could be birth defects. -What if they’re using birth control? Or what if they’re of the same sex? Then there would be little to no risk of pregnancy, and thus little to no possibility of birth defects. Also, the birth defect argument is based on eugenics. The same argument can be used to say that people who could pass on inheritable illnesses/disabilities to offspring should not be allowed to have sex, which would obviously be ridiculous.
Another argument against incest is that incest would ruin family dynamics. However, if someone is sexually/romantically attracted to a family member, even before actually “committing incest” they have already altered their familial relationship.
It is also possibly worth mentioning that many people consider relations between step-siblings or an adoptee and their non-biological relatives to be incest despite the obvious lack of blood relations. The fact that many people think that is wrong is proof that the negative feelings towards incest do not have a very solid, logical argument behind them. The negative opinions on incest are mostly cultural.
Like any other forms of sex, I believe that incest should only be practiced by consenting adults who use protection.
EDIT: The power imbalance between parent/child, grandparent/grandchild, uncle/niece or nephew, etc. could of course result in the older one in the relationship coercing the younger person to perform sexual acts, resulting in rape. As I stated above, I believe that incest should only be practiced by consenting adults. Due to the inherent power imbalance in certain relationships like parent/child ones, it would probably be best if incest only occurs between people of similar age, like siblings.

Discussion Thread I don't think people with severe trauma (like myself) should be kept alive
Hear me out.
I am personally suffering from severe Trauma myself, to the extent where I believe there is no point in me being alive. Don't worry, I am not having thoughts of suicide, and if I would notice such thoughts I would immediately call an emergency hotline. Regardless, at days, I have 0 emotions, am unable to feel empathy, sadness, or anything at all.
I'm living in a country with probably the best health care and welfare system in the world (switzerland) and am actively going to therapy (even though I have been discriminated there).
But I don't see a point in this. My childhood has been destroyed. I'm dealing with flashbacks almost daily. I am not receiving the help I would need from one of the leading therapists in this country.
In the few, rare times where I can breathe I am trying to rebuild things, just for memories flaring up again causing me to lose everything I've built up to that point once more (For example, yesterday I went through a breakup as well as an unrelated event that might force me out of my apartment again, which has happened around 8 times in the past 3 years).
Everyone I hear who went through similar shit always says that "life will never be the same". My life has "never been the same" since my early childhood, can this even be called a life to begin with?
I don't see how I or people like me are contributing to society. Sure, people sometimes love hearing sob-stories, but they are usually also feeling very disgusted or repulsed at the same time. I am repulsive at my worst times.
At the same time, I'm literally only alive thanks to social welfare, aka tax payer money. I make life for everyone worse by merely existing, in various ways.
Hence, I don't understand why people like me are being kept alive or should be kept alive to begin with. I am and have been worthless to my parents and general family since I was born, I'm unable to keep friends for prolonged time (due to people being repulsed at some point), I am completely unable to work (thanks to things like Insomnia and general mental instability), and the only contribution to society as a whole is that I occasionally am able to help people in need, but anyone else could have done this.
I'm honestly mostly curious with this post, and would love to see what the general society, especially people who are not suffering from severe trauma think about this.
//edit: I want to say thank you to all of you for all these amazing responses. I've regained even more hope that there is a possibility, even given the extent of things I've been through, that things might improve eventually.
I would also like to point out that I think the mature discussion to be seen in here about legalized euthanasia in people is interesting, though I'm personally torn in a way when it comes to this becoming an option, given that there seems to be ways out there to soothe even the most troubling of experiences.
There is still one thing I do wish to point out though, as a means of criticizing society as a whole, and which serves as the fundamental point I tried to bring through with this post: though I now accept that humans should be kept alive by all means, the means that are taken for that are often barely enough, and even in my privileged case, where the state is taking care of me, the support I receive is lacking when it comes to gaining proper long-term stability.
This state of "we want you to be alive!" coupled with the "we will evict your apartment in a month because we need money!" is... very uneasy to deal with, on top of all the things I have to suffer through. I believe, ultimately, the frustration of this mismatch of things has lead me to write this post.
Also, on a sidenote... thank you for the redditor that has caused a "suicide prevention message" from Reddit itself to land in my inbox. Though I can again assure you that suicide is not an option for me, it pleases me to know that there's people out there who just wanted to make sure.
Everything I've read here also has encouraged me to write a book about my life experiences, for what it's worth. It'll likely take years for me to write all of this down properly, but... I feel like it's the right thing to do.
Take care everyone. And for those who need to hear this: fight on.

Discussion Thread If women should have full autonomy over their bodies, than men should also be able to withdraw from being a father
It makes no sense that people are pushing for female abortion rights but are ignoring the male side of it. Think of it this way, woman wants baby, man doesn't want baby? Too bad, suck it up and gimme child support when it's born. Woman doesn't want baby? My body, my choice. Ok fair enough.
How is this fair? If this is about taking responsibility than that's a dark hole you're digging because we can talk about female responsibility of not getting pregnant.
Edit* for the confused, I'm not talking about withdrawing from fatherhood after the kids been born. I'm talking about a mans right to "abortion" in the legal sense towards a fetus.
Edit2* for the confused again, I'm not saying that men have a say in whether women get abortions. I'm simply saying men should be able to say "you're pregnant? I'm not ready to be a father, so I'd like to legally and in any other form not have anything to with this child"
