I found this to be a fascinating look at the philosophy of a possible 21st Century Enlightenment.

It's a bit rapid in presentation (11 minutes) and may be needed to be stopped and replayed for bits missed, but it is thought provoking.

Call me naive if you want, but life without trust in the goodness of others would be intolerable.

Religious indoctrination: It gets better, without it.

Frankly, we think such laws are silly. They do young people more harm than good. How can you possibly ask questions on a gay forum without coming out to your parents if you need consent?
So it is up to you. If you post here we assume that you are of legal age to do so or have consent if not, and we do not want to know any different
