  1. I love this backwards type thinking it's like saying Women belong in the kitchen. Children belong (with both in a perfect world) but with the one who can provide the best comfortable, stable, loving, home environment possible and genitalia has absolutely nothing to do with these factors.
  2. MONROE, Ohio -- Police said a six-story-tall statue of Jesus Christ with his arms raised along a southwest Ohio highway has been struck by lightning in a thunderstorm and has burned to the ground Jesus Statue Struck By Lightning, Destroyed - News Story - WHIO Dayton Here is what it looked like before
  3. Every young man should prepare to serve a mission doesn't mean every young man must in the same way that every young women who prepares to be a good wife and mother doesn't always get married and have kids.
  4. First off. I applaud you:clap: I do see this alot among the members of the church (though having never been in another church it could be common there as well).especially with the WoW. I think it is very important to point this out to the youth,
  5. I would get scriptural on him and ask if Jesus wasn't the right one since he was prophesied to be called Emmanuel ? (a name never used for him)
  6. No , free will is the most important aspect of the plan, that is why satans was rejected, and no one believes in free will more then an Anarchist.
  7. Interesting question. Some believe it will be easier on the other side
  8. Of course it's from the JoD (Journal of Discourses, 13:95.) so maybe it's opinion:conscience: I think it just shows the importance of personal confirmation/revelation. I believe it was coincidentally Brigham Young who said (and i'm paraphrasing here) I fear some members have such faith in their leaders they would follow them without seeking the truth for themselves (or something to that effect.)
  9. That is a BMI of 18.6. It's at the low end but in the normal weight range. If concerned about anorexia you should see if she is hairy. Lanugo (fine hairs) are a result of losing too much fat, the body needs to insulate itself, and is a good warning sign for the disease.
  10. I laugh because i was about to look Helen Thomas up on IMDB to see what other films she did besides Oz
  11. anyone catch this Reuter photo (cropped) Pro-Palestinian activists hold down an Israeli commando on the Gaza-bound Turkish ship Mavi Marmara in the international waters of Mediterranean sea early May 31, 2010. Original pic Armed activist hold down an Israeli commando Again cropped activist holding down Israeli commando original showing they are armed. and while i can't verify for certain it appears the Israelis use something similar to our own K-bar, So that knife wasn't taken from them and on the boat to begin with.
  12. I don't see the sabbath as list of does and do not but as a day of rest. A day to enjoy what i have and to rest from "daily grind". Because of school and work a day of "rest" for my family is spending time together with out other distractions ,such as studies, tv, cleaning, etc so this fits in with our situation perfectly.
  13. If you were raped would consider yourself a fornicator/adulterer?
  14. I'm skeptical. When the police and his family were saying he was innocent i was skeptical of that.
  15. Remember the suspect in the Natalie Holloway case, it appears a young women has turned up dead in his hotel room. Suspect in Peru woman's slaying arrested in Chile, police say - CNN.com
  16. Yahoo because it's built in. But i still use the term "google it" in the same way every cotton swab is a "q-tip" and every bandage is a "band-aid"
  17. That's it. Your anger gives you strength http://thm-a01.yimg.com/nimage/61083c2adfaa6480 Give in to the darkside;)
  18. I take no issue with it. Then again my favorite cold medicine NyQuil contains like 25% alcohol. If i was using rum instead of milk in my cheerios it might be an issue. But otherwise it's no different then using a medication in it's prescribed format IMO.
  19. I don't like older kids generally playing with mine (and it depends on the age difference on other circumstances) not based on the fear that everyone is a potential molester but based on the power differential. I never had young siblings but i can't tell you how many times we got one of my friends younger siblings (or a younger kid who wished to hang out) to do something dumb because we, with our vast knowledge at the age of 10 or what ever, "knew" little billy should eat dirt, or would "be cool"if he put the toilet plunger on his head. Bullies come in all ages but it's much easier for a child to stand up to a peer then an "elder".
  20. I don't know any blacks who swim. Seriously in 5 years living in Florida and going to the beach every weekend i never saw but or 2 blacks at the beach (in a city 26% Black).
  21. Like all technology it has it's good and bad. On the one hand i "know" people all over the world. On the other i don't know many in the neighborhood outside my culd a sac. I can keep up with old friends and family since i move around alot. But it makes it less of a priority to see them in person when the opportunity does come up. I'm also one of those people who wingnut is referring to. I have always been a bad speller (and have horrible penmanship) and with the internet as a "crutch" they haven't improved and perhaps gotten worse. I tried to fill out a check by hand the other day and my brain and hand had a hard time making the connection. Kept wanting to right my pin number since it is what i associate with paying for something. Think the biggest problem is a lot of people use (myself included) "i looked it up on the internet" as a source of authority. I mean you can get lots of info but so much is unregulated.
  22. Right on both counts, there are other reasons for it however, most cases are thought to be excessive calorie intake with a lack of physical activity. And these are the only factors we can control.
  23. Doesn't fit the law As horrible as this is it was not done for sexual gratification, ergo, not sexual assault.
  24. Confused by your question: But Dan Peterson writes for FAIR, and FAIR is one of those unofficial groups.
  25. I think it is a shame that people take this issue so personally (and people would personally attack the obese. The fact is Obesity is an addiction that damages the brain and body same as drugs. From the churches sight on combating porn Personally i hate this disease , not the victims in the same way i had drug addiction.Not druggies. That said i don't think the church can take a stand on it because it's not just one cause as gwen pointed out, and the churchs stands are pretty black and white.
