    Also, "tear at the fabric of society" can't really be proven or unproven. "Can change orientation just by trying really hard" has been debunked by every medical and psychiatric organization and doesn't hold up to scrutiny by any objective person.

    It won't matter to the true believers (see also: climate change) but the change from amorphous and unprovable to easily debunked can't help them with independents.

    Baby step.
