Failing to redress the issues facing young men will push them further towards the far right

in several areas there is now a reverse gender gap, with boys, particularly those from poorer backgrounds, struggling to keep up with girls

Do you think this is an important issue?

    What’s the point of all mighty gods if they can’t be bothered to stop misery. If they do exist - they’re assholes.

          Then we’d all be dead without a chance to repent.

            So god isn’t stopping the genocide because doing so wouldn’t let the genociders repent?

              Yes. Same way God isn’t stopping you from sinning because doing so wouldn’t let you repent

                But god can force Pharaoh to sin by hardening his heart to Moses’s pleas arbitrarily lengthening the Israelites’ suffering and robbing a human of his free will in the process.

                  I don’t think the Israelites are sitting in heaven after several thousand years upset over the few extra weeks they spent in captivity. That’s besides the point, Pharaoh’s heart was hardened by God removing the Holy Spirit, which is needed for repentance. It’s still Pharaoh’s free will, after he ignored spiritual conviction

                    So there’s a certain amount of spiritual conviction god could give genociders to convince them to stop while it still being considered free will but refuses?

                if no sin occurs, nothing to repent

                    if all have sinned in a situation where no sin occurs, then you can’t say “true”
