Maybe it's a European mindset. We spent 1 1/2 years in Germany. No stores are open on Sunday. It's just not done. No one dies because they can't get milk on Sunday. They plan for it. Now we're in the UK. We've been here since July. Stores are closed a lot earlier here than in the states. You know how people manage to…

I haven't had to look for a job for a long time but I was under the impression that they are still not something there is a plethora of out there. Some of you say "If you don't like it get another job" in a manner that suggest it's as easy as making a sandwich if you don't like what's served for dinner. I have a friend…

Did you learn anything in high school that will help you in a career that you couldn't have done with just an 8th grade education? If so, that's why a college education is required. If not, well, I hate to break it to you but you are in a dead end job.

Team Adrian. If my kids ask a question I answer them honestly. If they are old enough to read a book they can read it. I might issue some warning if I think it might be scary or racy but it's never been an issue. A few years ago my youngest and I were watching TV when a Cialis commercial came on. He asked "What's 'erectile…

You're only 25. 6 1/2 years seems like a long time but what are your options? Would you really want to be 75, have spent 56 years with him and still not have ever gotten married or had anymore kids? If that thought appalls you then get it fixed or get out now.

Just thought that bore repeating. The only time anyone should date a man over 25 who lives with his parents is if they are elderly and in poor health and he is taking care of them or if it is a very short term "My new house is not quite done but I already sold my other house so I'm living here for the next 6 weeks" sort of…

That's like saying it's my fault my house burned down if someone says "If you don't let me shoot your kid I'm going to burn down your house." and I refuse to let them murder my kids.

This is one of the most ridiculous arguments I see pro lifers/pro fetus people make time and again. There is one GIANT difference. Before it's born it needs MY body. No one else can feed it, nurture it, grow it, etc. Once it's born it does not need me at all anymore. Anyone can feed it, nurture it, raise it, etc. If I die…

So one species of dog mated with another species of dog. That's unnatural and against god and you dog should be stoned to death.

Which brings us back to the question I asked you 3 days ago - Do you agree with personhood amendments? That's where a fetus is considered just as much a person as anyone who has already been born and it has all the rights and protections any born person has.

I've been married for 20 years to the wonderful man I met 24 years ago. I love him with all my heart and always have. I had a feeling about him within 2 weeks that he was the one. Since I was only 19 when we met I got a lot of the eye rolls and patronizing comments. Ironically several of those people have been married and…

Don't forget greed. You can't fight to deny poor kids food and shelter because you don't want to spend an extra $1 in taxes and not be considered greedy. Yet you never hear them complain about the money hoarding 1%ers. If a poor person buys a steak with food stamps they are appalled. If a billionaire evades taxes of…

The Biblical arguments are silly too. No one is forced to follow any religion in the states. Therefore your Bible or Koran or *insert holy book* is completely invalid as a reason why something shouldn't be legal. If you want to believe that homosexuality is against God then don't be gay. If you think pork is dirty then…

OK, so god knows what will happen before it happens. Then do you believe that god is weak or that god is sadistic? Because if he knows that a child will be born with a terrible disease and live only a short time constantly in pain then either he isn't powerful enough to stop the conception or he's sadistic enough to let a…

OK, lets say medical science can remove an embryo from a woman's body at 5 weeks. That means the woman can put it up for adoption at 5 weeks. That means all the medical bills now fall on the government until it is born. That means taxpayers will pay for it's medical costs for approximately 35 weeks. That means the Tea…

They'll have the exact same opportunities to obtain prosthetics as a Satanist, an atheist, and a Hindu. Prayer won't do anything for them when it comes to healing that injury. As for amputees who would be offended by this, most of the ones I know (several - military) think it's rather funny. Yea, they're grateful they're…

Babysit, sell blood/plasma, cut back on anything you do spend money on, etc. Just get this jerk paid back. Make sure you print out a copy of all of his texts too. I wouldn't worry about him contacting your mom. What would he really say to her "Hey, your daughter who I'm no longer seeing isn't texting me back when I send…

Many don't believe that Jesus did rise from the dead. I respect that you are so sure of it and that's your faith. But if there were actually real scientific proof there would be nothing but Christians on this planet. Well, and a few whackados who think they were abducted by aliens and rectally probed. :lol:

Of course they are serious. I'm speaking legally and generally though not with regards to any one person's specific situation. If religion has a place in marriage then the government cannot only say that gay marriage is illegal but that Muslims, atheists, Jews, etc can't marry. If children have something to do with…

The majority of married couples do not have dependent children. About 1 in 3 minor children is in a single parent household. Marriage has absolutely nothing to do with children.

Government does have issues involving marriage. Like Brunner pointed out it's more than taxes. It's also who gets to accompany military and government personnel when they PCS, social security survivor benefits, military base access, inheritance issues, property ownership and transfers, next of kin, HIPPA regulations, etc.…

THIS is entitlement attitude, not "I'd like to be able to take my sick kid to a doctor." or "I worked for 40 years and now get social security and medicare." The real ugly entitlement attitude is right in this thread. It's the whole "I can do it because I say I can and I've never had an accident (yet) and besides people…

I never text or talk on the phone and drive. I'm not isolated from the real world, just the elements and bugs. ;)

I've been married 20 years this month. I love my husband totally and completely. I trust him totally and completely. But if I were to find out that while he was overseas he had an affair and now has a few kids in a few different countries I'd be shattered, heartbroken, then admit that he's not the man I thought he was and…

But how is a stranger knocking at my door to tell me about God's law any different than a stranger knocking at my door to tell my kids about my law? Assuming that I never actually tell my kids my rules myself of course since God certainly doesn't.
