Sure, many places are trying, then failing spectacularly. It will never happen for anything even remotely important.

6d 8h ago in europe@feddit.org from www.swissinfo.chI think we have very different interpretations of that quote.
When I try rephrasing it to something more concrete, it's not really about the proportions of people it affects at all. It's "the legal system has made it impossible to be poor". As in there is an inherent flaw in our society where being poor and being law abiding are mutually exclusive, and that we should do something to ensure that people have a social net to not have to break the law, but also in the meantime be more understanding that these people have no other option.
That, to me, seems totally irrelevant to religion in schools. This isn't a matter of life or death, of having to choose between breaking the law because you need somewhere to sleep. If we provided everyone with a place to sleep and means to live, then problem solved. Seems like a pretty clear cut answer.
What's the solution for religion in schools? If we lived in a society where there were equal numbers of nuns and hijab-wearing women, would you be okay with the law?
I personally think the answer is it doesn't matter. Schools are about education. They have (or should have) ethical codes to not corrupt their students, just as doctors have ethical codes for treating patients. We don't hang crosses on the walls, and also shouldn't hang them on school employees. Same goes for other religious stuff.
When you're a practitioner of science, leave religion at home.
How is that applicable in the context of religion?

9d 22h ago in microblogmemes from slrpnk.netDude OP was describing was striking up a conversation with another person. Sometimes that becomes a date, sometimes it doesn't. It's a nice way to go about every day. You don't need an ulterior motive. If you can imagine having the conversation with a man in the same scenario, then it's fine IMO.
Seems like kind of a dick move on her part though IMO.
Hard disagree. What are "appropriate dating spaces"?
Pretty sure lots of the people would love to have something serendipitous happen outside of the boring designations society expects.
