I've heard most of the miracles and plagues during the Exodus could be traced to a volcanic eruption that occurred around the same time.

Just throwing things out there:

-Culture that is becoming more sensitive due to the Internet and 24/7 news cycle?
-Something in the water, food or air?
-A weird wave of questionable parenting and/or bullying?
-Overall greater awareness of issues that have already been present?
-A greater trend of diagnosing more minor issues as major issues?

It's weird. I was thinking about a group of online friends my best friend has. Most of them, ranging from early high school to post-college, have some sort of depression, PTSD, and/or anxiety, which mostly traces back, according to them, to family issues. I've had my own experiences related to some shit that happened in my first college, but I understand that many people would find such experiences traumatic and don't have the strength to just brush it off like I could (Come to think of it, I have a good family, and a good family is a key to resiliency).

Anecdotal, I know. I think my best friend, who has severe depression, just attracts similar people easily. It really doesn't help at all being one of the few sane ones among this group of friends.

So you have no clue what communism is...

Communism isn't an ideology based around hate and genocide. Nazism is.

Yes, there were plenty of terrible people fighting for the communist cause, but communism itself is an economic theory like capitalism, and capitalism has a tremendous body count too.

Nazism is not purely an economic theory. Far from it, the economic part of it is irrelevant compared to the racial superiority and totalitarianism part of it.
That's why Nazism is always among the worst among various evils. Nazi beliefs are not about "national socialism", it's about subjugation of those deemed inferior.

I'm surprised that Yes is the majority vote.

...And I admit, I am one of the people who voted Yes.

Of course, I wouldn't consider it solely my decision. I would advise against it, but if the mother wants it, I wouldn't stop her. Though in that case I would want to put them up for adoption. I'll only take the challenge if the mother is truly that stubborn.

That's the entire thing. It's a challenge. I'm selfish, I don't want to spend my entire life taking care of someone who can possibly end up not being self-sufficient. Yes, yes, I've seen Down Syndrome people, I've seen the sheer joy they have for just being alive, I've seen the success stories. I've also seen the struggles the parents had to go through, I've seen the emotional hardship Downs children experience, particularly when they are aware just what effect they have on other people, and I've heard the horror stories, particularly for the more severely disabled people who have to go to group homes and get abused. And ultimately, these children will not be the ones to take care of ailing parents, and it stresses out siblings of normal functioning.

The challenges put me so off that any perceived joy that could be experienced from having such a life is not enough to convince me.

People who take care of severely mentally handicapped people have my respect. I don't have that strength of character.

I mean, possibly. But the various gods are being erased too and it is just the various angels that aren't for "some reason"

Whis and Vados, and possibly the other Angels, are literally the Grand Priest's children.
