And this is where you fail.

@mchill saidMore like diesel and ice cream -- not only do they not mix well, each gums up the works of the other.

@kellyjay saidYou constantly present your own religious beliefs as being 'the truth', when the truth of it is that they are only your own religious beliefs, which are no more true than any other religious beliefs. You also persistently hold contradictory views at the same time, expressing whichever suits the matter being discussed. You are therefore by your own definition about as far from being 'connected to reality' as it is possible to get. I and I'm sure others here have long known this, but it's good to have it confirmed by yourself.
Agreed, there are a lot of things masquerading as truth, feelings for example taking the place of reality. If something is portrayed as true, yet on its face isn't, we are no longer connected to reality. Holding contradictory views as true at the same time shows we have lost reality, when something can be said and it doesn't matter if it is true or not the assertion has to be accepted either way, we have left reality.
@sonhouse saidI agree.

The truth is, right wingnuts are doing exactly what he said. That is not opinion.
Just look at school libraries in Florida where books like the Bell Jar is banned for daring to bring in the subject of depression.
A whole generation of kids not getting a real education because DeSantis doesn't want white folks to feel uncomfortable.
