Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.

As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.

Thank you and happy chatting!

It took me longer than I'd like to admit to realize it was total bullshit and start to really understand evolution. it also stunted my development of critical thinking skills. I love science and the natural world so much, I still don't know if I can forgive my folks for doing that.

Shoutout to AromRa on YouTube for his creationism/evolution videos.

I mean in Catholic teaching of Felix Culpa the sin is deliberately baked in to allow humanity to become more than it could be without it. To have a soul is to have the capacity to defy god, and the knowledge of lost communion with the divine when you do. Jesus' redemption thus allows a recommunion with god, but as fully realised beings.
