Re: the collective 'he'

I'm really super curious about what you mean there, Hadassah.

Mostly because quite honestly anyone who denies that privilege still exists probably needs textbooks from this century.

Re: the collective 'he'

Lol, what? Seriously?

There's totally a collective she. It's called the 50% of the human race which for centuries has been ignored in favour of the collective he.

Re: US Election 2012 Discussion Topic

Obama earned his money in a different way. Much of his current wealth came from royalties from his book, but he also won a Nobel peace prize and donated the entire amount to five different charities. And he made some key investments when he was younger, mostly for college preparation for his daughte...

Re: Ask an alcohol-drinking, girl-kissing, pot-smoking Atheist!

I'd be insulted if I was asked that. :( I'd consider it mean and I felt the need to interject.

I don't mean it personally against you, I just think that's a really harsh question.

Re: Ask an alcohol-drinking, girl-kissing, pot-smoking Atheist!

Saying that is a little like me asking "Do you even have any common sense? It seems to me you polarize and demonize someone who believes differently from you....."

But that would be dumb on my part.

I also have the ability to live how I live without the need to inflame, provoke, or flaunt it.

Re: Ask an alcohol-drinking, girl-kissing, pot-smoking Atheist!

That's an excellent question, Kait. Gotta say, I laughed (in only 5% mocking way) at whoever's question about why atheists are on this site. I'm not an atheist per se but I am a very unconvinced agnostic. And when I joined this forum almost 7 years ago to the day, I was a very convinced Christian. P...

Re: The First US Presidential Debate Discussion

Anyone who stands atop a soap box and points to a single issue as reasoning for why one opponent is disastrous... May not be a moron, but seriously needs some real life experience. In politics it is way too easy to polarize, asking only "what is best for me now?" And only take that answer ...

Re: So. Homeschool.

Yes, I know lack of social skills could lead to other things, but if someone is schooled using Christian curriculum and has a strong foundation, hopefully once they're introduced into the "real world" they'll know how to handle it. When will this be? When they're 18 and finally going off ...

Re: So. Homeschool.

To what extent should children be 'sheltered' from the secular culture? That has nothing to do with homeschooling. Yes. Yes it actually does. For many people -- including, I'm wagering, parents of many of this forum's members -- it does. And it's the reason I was homeschooled. But that doesn’t make...
