This definitely falls into a WTF. I’m not even going to bother with lyrics.

What we have to deal with in the case of “social justice†is simply a quasireligious superstition of the kind which we should respectfully leave in peace so long as it merely makes those happy who hold it, but which we must fight when it becomes the pretext of coercing other men.

Seven Kingdoms is my favorite local band, and this song is one of the reasons why.
Lyrics:
All controlled by this world
Dreams shadowed by their walls
All this masses heed the call
Prisoners of the lie
Deveived to never try
Brought down by the iron hand
Our strenght will shine on
Only we can choose the path
Our quest for liberation
Finally here at last
Open the gates (Open the gates)
To the threshold of dreams
From pain endured
Choose your own fate
Darkness will fade (Darkness will fade)
All light to embrace
Power is yours
These chains must break
We were born to rebel
No longer locked up in this hell
Forever glory we will dwell
The strong will ride to face the hordes
By our blades driving force
Rays of light shine through the storm
Our strength will shine on…
Open the gates…
Science advances through tentative answers to a series of more and more subtle questions which reach deeper and deeper into the essence of natural phenomena.

Lyrics:
If you feel the way I feel,
take my hand, It’ll be unreal
When we jump i’ll tell the truth
I can’t take my heart from you
I feel you with blessed touch
Want to tell it you so much
The coldness of you makes me sick
Will we meet another week?
I give you all my spirit Come and take it
You can’t be blind since you first felt it
You can see my wings when your eyes are closed
Come fly away with me
Drive into the oncoming
Feel my heart is burning
You will not find the perfect me
Wake and find paint on your skin
When you read text upon your back
Not all whispers would be black
I give you all my spirit Come and take it
You can’t be blind since you first felt it
You can see my wings when your eyes are closed
Come fly away with me
Drive into the oncoming
Feel my heart is burning
Atheists are routinely asked how people will know not to rape and murder without religion telling them not to do it, especially a religion that backs up the orders with threats of Hell.
Believers, listen to me carefully when I say this: When you use this argument, you terrify atheists. We hear the only thing standing between you and Ted Bundy is a flimsy belief in a supernatural being made up by pre-literate people trying to figure out where the rain comes from.
This is not very reassuring if you’re trying to argue from a position of moral superiority.
Amanda Marcotte
I wouldn’t necessarily agree with terrify, but I do think it’s a strawman argument that isn’t quite as secure as many think.
