    It kinda boggles my mind that an evolutionary biologist and atheist has their knickers in a twist due to intersex, trans, and non-binary gender. Bro, if god isn't real, the world is a fucking chaotic mess that decides what does and doesn't work for weird and abstract reasons, and the social construction of God, and binaries are what stop us from advancing. Can you please move the fuck on from people's genitals? You sound like a fucking deacon at a church, you weirdo.

      It's because he's still into patriarchy, and patriarchy requires clear delineation between men and women, without any room for any other concepts. Look up how Dawkins responded to Elevatorgate. The guy's a misogynist and that's probably the root element for most transphobia.

      Dawkins is a racist too. Look into anything he says about Arabs.

        I'm familiar with Elevatorgate, that shit is/was beyond stupid. Dawkins, Hitchens and Harris carried so much water for tolerance of the Iraq War on anti-religious grounds, which is ironic because so many people were grossed out by George W. Bush's declaring this a holy war against terrorism and using crusader language.

      Unfortunately there are scientists who will ignore the parts of science they don't like when it suits them.

      Also there are ones who are just plain self serving assholes. Like the ones that pretended that lead or teflon was safe because it gave them a paycheck.

        Yeah he shoulda raised flags in the Atheist community when he was like "I still like religious music and religious inventions".

        He did and he didn’t even mean it right because he’s a fucking idiot. 99% of western atheists are “culturally Christian” because we grew up in a Christian society and still celebrate Christmas
