I'm a 35 yo female. I had to go to A&E this weekend. During triage, I was asked if I was pregnant, asked a few other questions and then asked if I was pregnant again. I was called in to get tests done and asked if I could be pregnant. Just to be clear, I said no every time. When I finally got to see a doctor, she asked again if I'm pregnant. Then she asked if I was already a mother. When I said no to that she was like "Oh so are you trying for a baby?". There was far too much focus on why my uterus was going unused and not a lot of focus on why I was so ill. When they came back to me with my test results the first thing they said was "So, you aren't pregnant..". Yeah duh, I've been telling you that all day.. But also, they never mentioned doing a pregnancy test until they gave me the results. Maybe I'm just naive but I assumed all the tests being done on me were trying to pinpoint what was wrong with me. I will never understand why people can't wrap their heads around the fact that not every woman wants to have kids.

My understanding is that there are two main reasons for that (aside from/in addition to the general cultural 'why no baby yet' pressure): 1) being pregnant can cause or worsen all kinds of problems and 2) If you are pregnant, even unknowingly, there are a lot of treatments and even tests that they cannot use or it could harm or kill the fetus (and potentially you). Aside from the understandable desire to not accidentally harm anyone, there's a lot of places where an accidental miscarriage of an unknown pregnancy is going to turn into being charged with performing an abortion nowadays, and that could easily end your career even if you're not in one of the states that'll sentence you to life in prison.

As a person from the UK, the politics surrounding the conscription proposition is so ridiculous that it's comical. For the last 14 years we have had a Conservative government greedily run our economy into the ground with not even half-baked promises of new and quality housing, giving more funds to the NHS to help stabilize the massive growth in patients that need care, create some sort of better border control to deter illegal immigrants, the fact that people for the last 3/4 generations never being able to afford their own home among many other broken promises that not even one has been fulfilled. For most of us 25-35 year olds that live in the UK I can't see that the conscription would end well, as I know that I would rather be sent to prison than die in a war I had no say in, to live in a house that I will never own for a government that seemingly hates me but still wants to take most of my money in taxes whilst also trying its hardest to kill off the NHS. We are soon due to have a general election and at least from my point of view, the Labour party is putting a tremendous amount of effort more than the Conservatives, most likely because this is the weakest that the Conservatives have ever looked whilst the Labour party isn't proposing a conscription at all. The current Conservative government has tacked on conscription as yet another ridiculous idea to gain more voters, though that's not to say that Labour could very well also tack on conscription once they get into power, but who knows? Me personally, for me to even consider going to war for my country, my caveats are as follows; I want to be able to own my own home, I want to be able to afford basic necessities without worrying that I can't pay my bills, I want to keep the free healthcare that I already have and to ensure that it never get's taken away, I want my taxes to actually fund what they are supposed used to be for and not to fund some greedy tories £500 lunch in the house of commons and most of all... I want free speech in my country, under the same kind of constitution as those in the US.

maybe without the 'President is above the law' part now, but I completely agree. Also I want medical coverage for any injuries sustained during that time and coverage on any medications and PT I'll need for said injuries for the rest of my life.

Regarding compulsory service, I had a drill sargeant in basic that said "a draft is bad, because you don't want to have someone to your left or your right that didn't sign up to be there." This has stuck with me (22 years later), because it was hard enough to be in Afghanistan when I *did* sign up to be there. As service members, we rely heavily on each other for survival and completion our missions. But when you have someone that doesn't want to be there, and are possibly resentful or not serious about their job, they become a huge liability to everyone. And having worked with conscripted forces, it often devolves into babysitting them on missions so that they don't accidentally hurt themselves or others. It's likely that they didn't receive adequate training, and even if they did, they may not have taken it seriously, because they didn't volunteer to be there in the first place.

@Kikkarlin

Let's also not forget what we've seen those conscripted prepared to do to avoid going to the front or getting sent back to the front throughout history. Best case scenario, they desert or injure themselves at home to avoid deployment and you have one less person to watch your back. Worst case? They do something stupid in the field to get sent home and risk your team's safety in the process. Heck there are even stories about American soldiers trying to get out of going to Iraq with all kinds of crazy plots (like apparently hiring a hitman to shoot their knee?? two swallowed a pen). And they all volunteered to serve. It is absolutely a terrible idea for everyone involved. It sounds like a good idea to have a huge number of soldiers, but it seems to often come at the cost of quality as you've mentioned. I think we often times forget (especially civilians) that being in the middle of a war as a combatant is like a constant waltz through a minefield. You have to be very well trained, hypervigilant and your team has to work together like you're one entity. It's one of the reasons why war scares me so much. It is hell on earth and we cannot expect huge droves of people to come out on the other side of that in one piece. They just become canon fodder.

As someone who did their mandatory military service in Germany, I can only say that it was a great opportunity. I also think there needs to be some clarification around what the situation was in Germany. You weren't forced to join the military after highschool. You had 3 choices, civil services (elderly care, hospitals, etc.), military service/training, OR if you were accepted into higher education/further education like an apprenticeship you didn't need to participate at all. This means for all of those teens who weren't sure where to go after highschool, there was a paid opportunity to develop new skills and establish good references for your CV because you were guaranteed a position where you could demonstrate your work ethic.

Having a set of guaranteed options for a high school graduate that doesn't already have something lined up makes perfect sense to me, particularly since there are non-military options, but a lot of people will either see it (or have it deliberately reported to them) as a compulsory draft or they'll just throw a fit on principle because you're telling them they have to do something. This is just my 2 cents, not universal truth or anything, but in my opinion/experience America (it's probably true elsewhere as well, but I haven't traveled outside the US much) has a bad case of 'Freedom' addiction, in the sense that being told they have to do just about anything is anathema to them regardless of what the action is or the reason for it. We've also got plenty of politicians who're delighted for any opportunity to scream about how any given thing is 'government overreach' (read: "someone told me 'no' and I didn't like it").

Freedom is a funny word that holds very little actual meaning, and unfortunately, although the US is known for an obsession with it, the obsession is everywhere. Similar to your 'rolling coal' example, if you say "adapt our diet to reduce meat consumption" in Europe the response seems to be "They don't want us eating meat so eat double".

As such we need to draw the line where we think it is an acceptable loss of personal freedom for the general benefit of society. i.e. taxes to ensure infrastructure doesn't collapse, or no smoking in public buildings, no drinking and driving. This "conscription" service is not much different in that you spend a year providing a service to society in some way (if you aren't already busy with something else) and on the upside you get paid and have guaranteed work.

The answer is pretty simple. Those options were already there for people who sought to pursue them, so why make it mandatory? Why force people to choose right out of highschool to pursue college, a trade, or military service? I'd also make two very important notes 1) The US deploys troops to active warzones or equally dangerous areas FAR more frequently then Germany. I mean they were sending hundreds of thousands of troops to Iraq and Afghanistan only a couple years ago. And that doesn't include other potentially dangerous Middle East or African deployments. Sure MOST US troops will get deployed somewhere safe like western Europe or SK/Japan, but I'd not want to risk the life of my child on a choice they were forced to make based on monetary means. Speaking of which... 2) Higher Education in the US is extremely expensive. In the US, and I do mean specifically the US, if you're forced to make the decision of pursuing a bank-breaking level of costs for an education OR joining the armed forces, what you're really doing is forcing children from poorer families to make that call which I think is pretty morally repugnant.

We had religious studies in school, but that was to learn about ALL religions…. I actually really enjoyed that as it gave insight into the diversity of religions, but also how they were similar in some ways….. Also, i think there is a difference in teaching kids ABOUT the bible and FROM the bible.

Taylor is a bad rolemodel, but telling women they have no value unless they have kids at thirty is a good rolemodel??

As a Christian myself I do not understand this particular brand of Christianity that wants to push teaching the Bible (as more than a cultural or historical text) in public school. It makes NO sense to me knowing that these same people would likely lose their minds if other religions tried to do the same thing. It completely opens them up to a world they would fight against. It’s so unprincipled to try to have rules that are okay for YOUR group but not for others. Our laws and regulations need to work equally for all. That’s what makes the ideals of America that I believe we strive for as a country.

Their reasoning is that the American constitution and governance was heavily influenced by and determined by it. It's still shite reasoning. I don't mind History classes teaching about the bible, within the larger sense of western civilization. But not in the sense of teaching the bible but more in the sense of teaching what it is and how the major western religions came to be from a historical standpoint. But I think that already exists. I remember reading in world history class in school about Abraham and the basis of the three major religions, within the context that all had a major impact on historical affairs. But it was never taught as to what is in the Bible or Torah or Koran or with the idea that any of it is real.

Besides, there's so many kids and teens in the system who aren't adopted or fostered because of their age, disabilities, colour, etc. Forcing people to have kids while not giving a fuck what happens to them post-birth is so villainous.

European seizure of naval trade routes along the gold coast basically crippled Mali's power in Africa. But ya there was a backlash against science in the Middle East and North Africa starting in the 15th-16th century.

I’m more concerned with why there are adults trying to force people to have babies.

I’m still in massive medical debt from my last child and I HAVE insurance. I’m still struggling to afford daycare as well.

We need less qualified immunity, not fking more of it. He's the president. If the leader of our country can't manage to follow the fking rules... I mean... shouldn't we be holding these people to the highest standard? They don't need safety nets. They need accountability.

Okay! I grew up in Oklahoma as a Christian, and I get that the statement made was broad, but this can become such a horrible thing. I bet at least half of the kids in my high-school weren't religious. There will be so many kids who will refuse to learn anything with the Bible and if this effects grades, then Oklahoma will fall even lower in ranked state school systems. If it becomes a mandatory thing to learn and read the Bible, it arguably infringes on the first ammendment and can lead down a very bad path. You can't make people become something. We should support all religions in this melting pot of a country ❤.

They may have been religious but not outwardly so and also Christianity is not the only religion as well and that is where the problem lies here. Unless it is a private Christian self funded school there should be nothing about a Bible brought up in any curriculum. As a Christian would you want to be forced to learn of the Quran in a public school? I am sure that would cause an uproar amongst every Christian out there. I am not religious because my grandmother was such a Bible thumper and swore she was going to go to heaven but was literally one of the worst people I have ever known, she beat us abused my grandpa was a racist(my grandpa she married is part african) and would lose her temper and swear or hit people. All of that and she thought she was above others and such a righteous person and that made me disgusted as a child and although I respect good religious people I would give that same respect to any other person that treats others well.

I can't remember all of it.But son of a b****, Jesus's history is pretty much a copy of like 3 different religions and I mean a f****** copy and it's kind of terrifying.I never knew until that anxiety.Kid came in with his old note card😂😂😂

Their goal is to end public schools across the nation. They want an illiterate workforce that they can pay slave wages to. Tricking everyone into believing America was ALWAYS a Christian nation is just the cherry on top.

So the country that literally was formed from people being sick of rulers not being held accountable....has found that rulers can't be held accountable. From the party that is known for its patriotism and love of the Founding Fathers...who made the Constitution....that they reference regularly. That we are also celebrating specifically in 3 days' time. Truly these are strange times.

I am a middle of the road person and I am terrified with the way things are going. Bibles in school?? I refused to say the national anthem because it said under God when I was in school. I wholly encourage kids to stand up for themselves in this.

A note on Danish military service - it's not compulsory, but everyone who turns 18 has to show up to a "service aptitude test" (idk how it's called) and the vast, vast majority of eligible people end up drawing what's called a "maybe number", meaning they're in the reserves essentially. The Danish military is something like 97% volunteers.

It's ironic that in the early 2000s, the nation's greatest fear was the potential rise of Middle Eastern individuals who might gain power and impose Sharia law. Fast forward 20 years, and we now face the Christian version of that very fear. As someone who grew up in the church and attended a Christian school where the Bible was taught thoroughly, I can attest that not everyone is brainwashed into belief. For me, it had the opposite effect. Since I was 16, I've been an agnostic, it did however equip me to debate Bible passages with anyone who tries to use them to hate me for being trans or a non-believer. The Batman quote comes to mind: “You either die a hero or live long enough to see yourself become the villain.” I sincerely hope that rational thought and ideas prevail before we repeat the mistakes of the past, leading to intervention. I fear for the future of this country and its people.

"How did so many people know about this..." well, let me explain: when you work for a big company, you don't spill its beans without the fear of being blacklisted by the entire industry. So, while "doing the right thing" is a nice thing to say, when NO ONE will come to your aid when you're locked out of every job available in your field, doing the right thing means disaster for your family. So, shockingly, people prioritized their entire world over being "the one" who got destroyed for being righteous.

Some Christians like to pretend that civilization and laws didn't exist before Christianity - while referring to a book that has parts that are pre Christianity. Of course laws existed even before that, or in countries that had never heard of Christianity before but they like to ignore that.

Ironically, I went to a private Christian high school and never had the Bible as required reading.

So if the president wants some or all supreme court members "out of the way", he can just have it done? Genius.

19:32 we are currently seeing the same thing play out in Canada. That’s playing out in France. In Canada, conservatives one the Toronto area which is classically been liberal for over 20 years . And the fact the conservatives have beat the liberals in every election and they’re going to have a sweeping election where they have too much power This is the results of the liberal government overstepping its bounds and pushing its beliefs on everybody . The Trudeau government pushed against the people so much that their own supporters don’t support them anymore, and are literally vote in their political rivals The reason that this is dangerous, is there going to be such a huge shift in the politics and they’re going to have the majority where they can just make anything they want into law See I’m tired of the liberal government for the same reason, but I understand our system works best when we have representatives of both sides whereas the last while since Trudeau was voted in, we have not had that . He formed an alliance and basically did anything he wanted in politics. Now the other side is going to have the power to do the same and our country working together to improve itself. We do the same thing we did for the last eight years and just improve the lives of the one side while screwing out the other half of the country

The purpose of religion was to make you a better person with grounds to live by. Now it's just used so people can do whatever they want and hide behind their religion.
