A child becomes an adult when the circumstances of life require him to take on the thinking of an adult, or die. This often happens when a child is abandoned by his parents, or when he becomes like a war orphan.
I asked for a clear definition of a word, not this vague mushy bullshit about responsibility. I say a child becomes an adult when he or she reaches puberty, this definition relies on the science of biology. What's your definition?

The difference is Islam, of course. Why? Because Islam has violence directives right along with peace directives right in its holy writings.
Haven't read the bible lately, have you? It's chock full of violence, how about when God sent those bears to maul and kill the kids making fun of the bald old man? Sooner or later you're going to have to accept that any book written 2,000 years ago is going to contain ethics lessons that are outdated by 2,000 years.

Phase 1. Destroy heteronormative standards and establish equality for all sexuality. (Struggle nearing completion in most industrialized nations [sorry Russians]) Phase 2. Destroy the myth of Homo Sapien monogamy and assert science in the realm of human sexuality. Pansexuality / polyamory explodes. (Struggle ongoing in most industrialized nations) Phase 3. Smash the myth [social construct] of gender and assert science in that realm. (Struggle just began in industrialized nations) Phase 4. Medical science cures all sexually transmitted infections/diseases. Orgies ensue all over the world. Phase 5. Religion is a bad memory and sad joke from a time before the Commonplace Orgasm and sexual Paradise on Earth. (Civilization's ongoing transformation from superstition to reason) Related reading: leck mich

Violence directives that apply to Christians today is something different. There aren't any Bible violence directives that apply to Christians or anybody present today. Yet, the Quran and some of the Hadiths have present-day directives to do violence. Just because human beings have devolved over the last 2,000 years (as before), doesn't mean that the ethics lessons don't apply.

And what it's gonna be after the end of religion? End of civilization? What is the workld and society you proposing? It doesn't make any sense. A whole lot less violent, that's what it'll be. More orgasms = less violence, I guarantee it. Soviet Union refused religion and fell afterwards. Weak analogy informal fallacy. People that refused religion have killed more people than all religions have so I think your the one with the fallacy dumbass. The fallacy, my dear sir, is the basic idea of comparing murders based on religion, against those committed devoid of such a basis. You're presuming atheist atrocities "out-perform" atrocities based on religion, when the simple fact is an atrocity needs neither basis - instead, only that of the twisted (or 'anti-social', if such fallacious logic still rules this discussion) individual's (and those he/she have brainwashed) personal beliefs to cause such suffering. Religion, sex, death, genocide, etc. etc. etc. - ALL CIRCUMSTANTIAL. No one has any right whatsoever placing blame on a reason that can be used universally. Investing some time in reading the book, 'A Brief History of the Paradox', may serve many here as good reference material when dealing with similarly pointless banter. People that believe in a peaceful religion tend to not do shit that isn't peaceful while people that have no moral backing don't have any real restrictions besides personal which is very subjective. The difference is Islam, of course. Why? Because Islam has violence directives right along with peace directives right in its holy writings. I don't consider Islam a religion of "peace". no matter how many times they play that narrative actions speak louder then words.

2,000 years ago slavery, torture, rape, and violent conquest of neighbors were all socially acceptable and commonplace. For entertainment, these people forced slaves to butcher each other in gladiatorial combat, boiled cats alive in oil, publicly crucified political opponents, and burned heretics alive at the stake. The Long Reach of Reason explains well why we've socially progressed nonstop since the dawn of the age of reason.

The Long Reach of Reason explains well why we've socially progressed nonstop since the dawn of the age of reason. Cute little TED video. It forgets one major thing. All people die. Life means nothing in the long run. When you look around the world today, you can see that all the violence of 2,000 years ago is still acceptable in some parts of the world. And even the parts of the world where it is not so acceptable, it is still acceptable in small scale. Consider what happens if somebody doesn't pay his income taxes in America. Yet, while income taxes are called voluntary, they really are slavery over people who don't want to pay. In addition, not all people of 2,000 years ago were violent war mongers. Among all peoples and races and nations there have been times of peace. Using reason and logic to suggest that people are evolving rather than devolving, is merely something that a few shrewd people are doing to pull the wool over the eyes of the rest of the people, people who have devolved to the point that the wool can be pulled over their eyes.

It's not about life and death, it's about maximizing quality of life and minimizing suffering for the greatest number of people possible - efficiency of happiness. You write much, but understand little.

What gives you the right to be intolerant and destroy the gender norms of the vast majority of the population while hiding behind a veil of tolerance?
No reply to my earlier comments? I guess thats how you cope when someone calls you out on your inconsistencies and lack of logic. Here is a fun video showing how social justice warriors are basically indistinguishable from neonazis. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z-ZX5V4Qft4

I think, sex is a normal and natural thing between two peoples. Sex will advance civilization. It will not destroy people and kill the God.

I think, sex is a normal and natural thing between two peoples. Implying sex is abnormal and unnatural among three or more people? All consensual sex is natural, healthy, and fun. Doesn't matter their gender, or color, or how many participants there are. This self-evident truth is at this very moment being discovered by young people all over this planet. Religion, by contrast, is unnatural, unhealthy, and - worst of all sins - boring.

For someone who advocates killing God you sure do adopt the persona of a preacher giving a sermon. BTW that wasn't an answer to my question, and I am still waiting on those scientific studies that prove gender norms are not biologically driven in any way.

For someone who advocates killing God you sure do adopt the persona of a preacher giving a sermon. How perceptive you are. I'm not advocating killing God or anything else, as if you or I had any impact whatsoever! I'm simply pointing out my observation that the death of religion has already begun and there's nothing any of us can do to stop it. Technology giveth, technology taketh away. Woe unto all ye who stubbornly cling to the ways of the past.This Century's Forecast: Orgasms, reason, and science win. Violence, ignorance, and superstition (theism) lose.
