>>937509907>The field of Divinity studies proves Jesus is real.Incorrect.
Theology is inquiring into the epistemic integrity and nature of religious claims and organizations.
But the beliefs of those claims are not apriori to deductive reasoning.
>You are not a woman. Every single cell in your body is male. The only way you can claim to be a woman is by making the term meaninglessI'm gender fluid, so I'm a woman some of the time.
>This position is completely illogical, of course. It cannot be definitional to your existence to define yourself as a woman while also arguing that the term is functionally meaningless. It's like me claiming to be a billionaire, and deciding that "billionaire" just means anyone who feels rich. You can't demand people call you a term while also demanding that the term is meaningless.You're conflating personal identity metrics for delusions.
If we have a given population and we observe their behavior/cognition (in a large enough sample) that information us a phenomenon exists, then it is studied.
It's why UFOs is not an academic inquiry but the physics surrounding flying objects could be.
You confuse ontological claims (the experience of one's gender) for critical theory because you're being intellectually dishonest.
Also, critiques of culture are also legitimate because they're built on precedents of legitimate fields, such as feminism, men's theory, sexual orientation, sociology, psychology, etc.
These are called interdisciplinary fields and emerge when paradigms can't explain phenomenon in nature.
>In reality you fell for a pharmaceutical industry campaign that's basically run out of customers and is being quietly abandoned.Red herring. Two things can be true. Mental states can exist and corruption in pharmaceutical companies are simultaneous.
Not to mention the scope of corruption is not limited to mental health but also physical ailments and their treatment.
(I.e. pain management that lead to the opoid epidemic).
