[quote="labrusca"]Even if they don't get "Sweet Mamma" Thelma gains by it - she doesn't owe anything, [/quote] Not necessarily true. The really bad thing about con games is that those who got conned are usually still liable for contracts, debts, etc. signed as part of the scam. Even when the grifter...

I like pre-Garth country (to pick a false dividing line), but not post-Garth.

I can deal with the whining, but I hate the garbage that, aside from the singer having or faking a Southern accent, is indistinguishable from pop.

A prophet has no honor in his own country; likewise, Quentyn's going to get respect from the racconan people, as a whole, last of all at this rate. Consider: Quentyn's had two adventures thus far. In the first one, he earned the respect of the crocs, but not even of all those who live in his home vi...

Okay, so I was wrong; couldn't let this go without responding... And if the PEOPLE want to vote to ban gay marriage they can do that. The people decide the laws, not the gov. As little as 100 years ago 'the people' would have voted to prevent African Americans from marrying anyone else. Sometimes, '...

This discussion isn't going much further, at least not as a persuasive exchange of ideas, so I'll limit my responses to three things. First, a direct response: I don't blame you for not knowing the philosophical foundations of your opinion. It's not original to you. It's flawed for the reason I desc...

I hate to have to say it, but it was extremely irresponsible for your parents to have married before they were prepared to raise children. So, by that logic, my wife and I were extremely irresponsible for getting married 3 years ago. I'm sorry, but I cannot agree with that. Your arguement is based ...

A more fundamental misunderstanding of the nature of marriage I have rarely encountered. Children in a marriage aren't a "risk", they're a joy. Sex is a fundamentally creative act, and a secure, stable family, the nucleus of which is created by a marriage, is the best environment for the nuture of ...

Thanks for the apology; I appreciate it. I understand how tempting it is to get in an online shouting match as a distraction from real life's ongoing pressures. The "safe sex" dogma is a failure. And it is morally reprehensible--- because it's entire purpose is to provide people a way to fornicate a...

Only a leftist booblick would have the arrogance to conclude that the American populace is too stupid to know how to use a condom. Or that kids who go through "sponsored by Trojan" sex ed in public schools are going to automatically use any of the advice they are given, <I>when the most important t...

And I was wrong on that; the clap and the French disease are quite alive and well in the US, especially in the rural South. EDIT: However, it seems that in 1999, syphillis cases hit an all-time low since records were first reported in 1941, having declined nationwide an average of 80% from a 1986 ep...

As to abstinence: <I>Promoting sexual abstinence before marriage IS the only legitimate government stance because it is the only stance that works.</i> Except that, um, it doesn't, because the majority of people with opportunity not to abstain don't abstain. "Safer" sex is a myth. Okay? Condoms hav...

Giving specific answers to your responses would take this thread even further off-topic than it already is, so I'll keep it short... I didn't say taxes for everything should be abolished; I said it's not necessarily greed to want to keep what you've earned. I didn't say that the needy don't deserve ...

You know, after reading all the archives (PS, RHJr please consider replacing PNGs with JPEGs- three minute load times per page ain't fun)...

... is it me, or is Quentyn aging backwards? Seems like he's become a lot shorter, younger, and bigger-headed than he started out as.

Just sayin'.

I will read no further. I fear if I do the sheer, unadulterated STUPIDITY and CRUELTY of your post may be contaigous. I'm not gonna explain why it's stupid, either. If you can't figure it out on your own by this point, you're too stupid or too delusional to understand. Oh, and while we're at it, I ...
