In other words, dont try to tell others who they are allowed to fall in love with. others may not understand why you love who you love either but it wont change the fact that you do. Very well said, I have to say. Welcome to the discussion, though it is mostly over now, and that may be for the
This was written as a piece of satire, and it elicited some of the comments I was hoping to receive. You rogue! I thought this article was at odds with the political views you express, but I guess I wanted to quote that one part of the Declaration of Independence so badly that I let my good sense abando
I have to agree with the anonymous opinion expressed above, I'm rather offended by the viewpoint that all men want is "to score" and don't care about the girl, her feelings, her pleasure... Of course there are people like that, there are women like that, there are men like that. You happened to choose one, and he sounds like a real asshole if he would do that to you. I'm not trying to be rude to you, I'm sorry your first experience was like th
As for the pace of life, I don't hear many people say it is too slow... Well no, I for one don't think it's too slow, just too limited in schedule per my response above. >8) At the same time, I don't think it's too fast, either.
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. --That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of th
Well, there are 2 questions in play here. One is whether you can promote a slower pace of life by limiting sports activities for kids on Sunday morning? The second one is what the kids and parents would do with the free time. I'm just looking for a level playing field where the choice for the kids is something other than sports t
We could call it "National Break Time" and leave it at that, making the purpose our improved health instead of solely to respect and promote Christian times of worship. While that is certainly a much more reasonable suggestion, I for one think it's still too much of a "Let's force people to do warm and
The four words "Don't waste your vote" have deterred many people from even asking about parties beyond the big two. I have spoken with many people who have expressed a near mirror of the LP position, and had no idea they were doing so until I pointed it out to them. I think that's a very important point
Actually I do watch Anime and I know what you mean.....if you have to watch it on TV everything good is cut, cut, cut..... Why would you watch anime on TV anyway? It's dubbed...*shudder* dubbing is even worse than ordinary censorship, because at least when swears are censored you know there's some assho
*sigh* I hate being single. Thanks a lot, mignuna! Now I feel like shit >8P Seriously though, that was very enjoyable, now I'm out of here before someone at work sees me reading it >8).
I stopped reading your article after the phrase "if we were to accept the premise in Michael Moore's film". That's childish, notice he didn't say: "I agree with Moore's film," if he had said that, I can see you ignoring the rest of what he wrote if you know you don't agree with Moore, but all he says is
Man do I hate RealPlayer. I hated the older versions, though at the time they had some functionality since their annoying proprietory video format was sometimes used, but the newer RealPlayer seems to have just about no redeeming qualities. Then again, I don't particularly care if Apple suffers either, if they end up "fighting," I can only hope they'll both end up worse off for it.
We already are in a situation in the schools where values education is totally deemphasized and religion is essentially prevented from influencing the educational process. Where do values get taught? Are you really suggesting that if a parent chooses not to teach values that we will sacrifice the children on the altar of indiffer
Personally, I believe it is about power and control. Democratic and Republican candidates are part of the political machine; they're bought and sold by special interests (as, admittedly, are some third party candidates; they're just different special interests and not as powerful). If they can control the playing field, they insu
As someone who doesn't particularly like neither sports nor religion, I think I can atbitrate between the two pretty fairly >8). That said, a law like that probably wouldn't fly if only because not everyone is Christian. If I wanted my kids to be able to play sports, as an atheist I would be annoyed if they were suddenly barred from doing so on Sunday because you want to encourage Sunday School, when you could encourage or enforce it yourself,
The notion that God doesn't exist is all in the mind, in my opinion. Well, sure, but so is the notion that God does exist >8).
PearlCaster, would you describe yourself as a theist, agnostic, or atheist? (I apologise, but I haven’t been able to make it out through all the vocabulary). Also, are you male or female, just out of interest? I'm also curious about this, from what I've seen, I had assumed you have your own unique form
Then you are not an atheist at all shitzu. You are your own god. I disagree, I am merely human, the very idea of divinity is foreign to me. I happen to believe in my thinking process, in my opinion this just means I have a healthy amount of self-esteem in that aspect of my life. I can comprehen
I've seen plenty of copies at Best Buy, and I'm sure the major store retailers (EB, GameStop) have them.
Interesting article, Sally. Prosititution is hardly an accepted institution for the most part, so I don't know if there's so much a double standard there as there is in simply percieved sexual roles among the sexes, and the needs of either side. A percieved greater need to satisfy lust for men, and for some reason a perception that it is more okay for men to be sexual beings than women. I think this is central part of the discrepancy, because if you no
Exactly and I think getting married in any church wether or not they want them to get married in the church is still wrong. That is my belief and I'm sticking to it. I can't see why you would care what a completey different religion or Christian sect chooses to support, as it doesn't devalue your own s
And now, dear, having put myself to this tedious labor to help you overcome your confusion, I will ask you a question: how is it that you are able to read words but not comprehend their sense? I am perfectly capable of comprehending their sense, and what you explain was more or less what I thought you m
You're a Libertarian Gideon? I had no idea, I think we may end up agreeing on more than I had thought. I've been reading a lot of your replies in other blogs and I mostly agree with your well-stated viewpoints. Good article, keep it up.
Those are some good songs Texas Wahine, very good songs. My tastes change a lot, currently I'm obsessed with the Postal Service, but I've listened to so many things...
P.S....this isn't the right thing to do, but....we're staying in Billeting on Wednesday night. I think I might just 'forget' our clock radio. I also think that I might set it for 2 am and place it right up against the bedroom wall, turned up to full volume. I think I might see how they like a taste of their own medicine....</T
