When they asked Ketanji Brown "What is a woman?"
This what I think is the best answer.
We don't need to define what a woman is, we need to define what we allow people to believe and how it interacts or conflicts with other people's beliefs. Religious people can choose to live in contradiction with non-believers and other religious people.
No one is required to prove their belief on how to live and manage their life.
The judgment question is how we manage all the conflicts of beliefs and lifestyles, not verifying them as true or false.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?
This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.
As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
