Personally I think we are watching the slow death of the USA. May be from France I am not getting all the subtle details about the situation on the ground but the country seems to be completely divided. There is almost nothing now that hold

I am a lifelong atheist so don’t expect me to defend (even modern) Hinduism and Christianity. They have their own flaws that are also deep. I was just pointing out no one dared to use the word Islam - so at this point it was clear for me it

The separation between the sacred and the profane predates religion and persist even in atheism. Topics related to human life are broadly forbidden to economic activities for example.

I don’t think there is a “church” in Islam. Correct me if I am wrong but the imam is only the prayer leader and nothing more. Islam is by definition social (the concept of Ummah) and includes a corpus of laws. And anyway in most Muslim majo

I was speaking from a French perspective and I broadly thought it was pretty similar in most of W.E. I do not know the legislation and the jurisprudence in the Dutch case. Mea culpa if am wrong outside of France

At least in Western Europe yes, noticing some patterns is forbidden by the law. I have personally ancestors that died during the Shoah so I am especially sensible to the damage antisemitism can do but it’s getting downright absurd at this p

This approach can mislead people because it by design make the hypothesis that the support is infinite and that the variance is finite, which is why it ends in a thin tail distribution in the first place. Plus as said by klodolph the choice
