Yay, more women's entitlement programs that violate equal protection of the law. Let's break this up: Pregnancy is a pre-exisiting condition, this would be absolutely no different that making a law that said it's fine to go out and get car insurance after you've had an accident and your...

Sounds like Ron Howard is worried if it gets too much negative attention from religious groups it'll go the way of the Golden Compass.

Civil marriage existed in the Roman empire for the nobility. There was no civil marriage for the common people.

For goodness sake, does no one have a sense of shame any more? If she were so sorry about the abortions I tend to doubt she'd want them in the national spotlight. Sounds more like people that want their 15 minutes of fame for doing something off the wall, like adopting dead kids that were...

I mean that a man can work for years and have the lion's share of it stolen away through no real fault of his own. On top of that he'd be looking at hefty child support, and possibly alimony payments, every month, often leaving him in poverty. At the very least, no where near the standard of...

Marraige for men is a bum deal, until family law under goes radical reform you can expect to see the number of cohabitating couples go through the roof.

An excessive tax might not be the way to go, but the bottom line is this: one gender is primarily the filing party in divorces. Family courts are set up to favor that gender and because of that divorce usually creates a finanical windfall in all the cases that it can. In some cases there just...

Actually, Sanford Braver's work on the subject shows divorced people of both sexes come out of divorce on about the same standard of living. That is the average guideline, it is not reflective of the average child support payment, family courts are free to do whatever they want. Not to...

Ahh yes, you are your child's servant. Work 100 hours a week, or until the stress and lack of rest kills you, but pay, pay, pay. Least the slavers have to come and arrest you for not working yourself to an early grave. Actually the feminist study conducted by Lenore Weitzman was throughly...

I worked in law enforcement for 27 years and hated it, but I did it for my girls. My ex-wife never put in a day of labor on their behalf. I also paid for both of them to go college out of pocket, but that's my choice. I won't even go into the legal fees it cost me to win custody over my idiot...

As for the OP, there really isn't much you can do about it. I tend to think a huge reason why women are so prone to divorce (and women file for the vast majority of divorces) is because they believe (often correctly) that family courts will give them the lion's share of the marital assets and...

You know women are far more likely to default on their "child support" than men are per capita.

So belief in the mainstream version of the holocaust is now equal with dogma? That's interesting, so he can't have some wild opinion on the holocaust, but could he view other historical events in decidely non-mainstream light and still be a bishop? Say he doesn't believe William Shakespeare...

Who "despises" them for it? Get real, every politician on the face of the earth that does any business with Turkey pushes the whole thing under the rug and that's not changing any time soon. The only reason Turkey can't get into the EU is because it would create waves of immigration that...

If the Bishop had said he agreed with the Turks and that the Armenian genocide never took place this thread wouldn't be here. It's pretty politically correct to take that position, or just ignore the subject altogether. Why should the holocaust be a sacred cow?

This bishop has an unreasonable low estimate on holocaust deaths, hundreds of thousands of Americans really believe we were "one vote away" from making German the official language of the US. The holocaust wasn't the worst thing that ever happened, it wasn't even the worst thing that happened...

I can think of a certain 20th century leader with whom mass oath taking was quite popular.

Q:You know what you call a white guy surrounded by 11 black ones? A:Coach Q:You know what you call a white guy surrounded by 1,100 black ones? A:Warden A little prespective on why stereotype jokes just aren't funny even if the group you're picking on is still on the ok to mock list.

Hey, they've got women and practicing homosexuals, why not a wild club hopping priest?

Xbox 360, at my age I have a lot of time to spend with it.
