    Then it is. Not all doctors do, but ones who do would certainly fall under that category.

    You see doctors educating, not badly trying to shame people to, for example, not participate in sports.

      You would agree, then, that making fun of anti-vax people is unjustified, hateful, and forcing the religion of medicine down people’s throats?

        Yes. Education works much better than mockery. Mocking people is for people who need to stroke their own egos. I’m confident in what I believe.

              No, you’re genuinely a doofus.

              It’s an idiotic position. I don’t need to waste time trying to educate you. You’re convinced you’re correct.

              All I can really do is call you a doofus.

              (which you are)

              My hope is that you will eventually learn that “FaCTs aND LoGiC” is not always sufficient to persuade someone who has their head up their ass.

                I think you just never made the effort to learn how to present arguments.

                You’re saying “not my job” but I’m hearing “not in my skill set”.

                If being a doofus is having respect for people whose beliefs don’t match my own, then I’m happy to be one. I wish more people were doofuses. Maybe we could actually solve a few problems.

                  Except you don’t have respect. You came in here throwing around accusations of religious dogma.

                  Like, damn dude, I just eat more vegetables than you.

                  You’re intolerant of us because we have a different moral framework than you. You piss and moan at the mere mention of anything vegetarian.

                  Meanwhile I interact with meat eaters, every single fucking day, and I manage not to be a complete ass. You can’t seem to manage it even once.

                    You don’t even know my diet. Lol. You’re assuming what I eat just because I don’t agree with your methods.

                    I never used the word dogma. I just agreed with another commenter that veganism is a religion. I don’t happen to see a problem with religion, so don’t see that as an insult. I’m just labeling it what it is. Veganism is a religion. Eating vegan isn’t necessarily.

                    But you are right in an oblique kind of way. I have respect for other people’s beliefs. Not necessarily their behavior. And yours and OP’s is ineffective at actually trying to convince anyone of anything. If I were you, and really believed what I claimed to believe, I’d want to know that.
