  1. my input is always most unappreciated by the masses...i however, am a strong believer that in the beginning God...and He just did it His way...the how of it, the when of it, and the why of it...all of it...science is science...God is God...facts are facts
  2. blame, explain, defend, whatever the term may be...i still feel that homosexuals are homosexuals pretty much by choice...
  3. if it were not true that homosexuals 'blamed' being gay on something, then why are we discussing this?
  4. you have opened another can of worms...i do not know what makes people 'gay' either, but it seems there must be something there in the rejection field...maybe they are rejected so much by those of the opposite sex that they feel they need to resort to the same sex...or maybe it is just the 'shock factor'....or maybe they just cannot accept life the way God intended them to be so they therefore resort to the exact opposite...either way, it seems they all 'blame' being born that way...it seems to be more of an 'incorrectable' stance in life to be born that way...people tend to accept things better when another is born that way...it tends to prove that they cannot help the way they are...my question is, 'would they want to be straight if they could help it?'
  5. i, too, smoke...have now for years...i enjoy the calming effect also and also wish i had never started...it seems the habit of 'lighting up' is more time related and activity related with me...have one in the morning with coffee, while talking on the phone, while driving my car, after meals, etc...the cravings are stronger at these key times than at any other...the desire to quit comes only when i have problems breathing, or when the smell on clothing or in my house or car is overwhelming...have tried to quit on occassion and the smell of another's smoke is offending, not luring...if you do not smoke...do not start...the habit is so hard to break...i have heard of heavy drug users saying they quit the heavy drugs easier than they could quit nicotine...seems all smokers feel like they wish they had never started
  6. i am the other...i feel that we have wasted enough money and lives on outer space...what will we do...pollute another planet? however i also feel that it is a form of learning...what? i am not sure...maybe we can make the hole in the ozone a little bigger by shooting another space prober up there
  7. yes, blike, your mother and father had a very keen sense of discipline...they talked and then spanked...u learned... my children were disciplined (spanked) and then talked to and it seems they learned nothing...at the time any- way...my eldest would beg to be spanked...even saying, "mom, i am not going to go to bed without a spanking"... and unfortunately he very rarely did go to bed without one...it also seems that in later life (he is now 28), he has learned respect and would now laugh and tell anyone that asked that spankings did him no good...i used to feel bad about disciplining my children with spankings... i even went to the welfare office and asked them about this...at the time their only response to this was "as long as you leave no marks, you may whip your child all you feel you need to"...this shocked me and i never whipped my children again...they have all grown to be fine pro= ductive adults...my opinion on this matter is this...i agree with your parents' theory...tell your child why they need disciplined...discipline (whatever form they need) and then stick to your guns...you grew up fine, as your brother has also.
