    Santa Clause

    Since when is a fantasy a lie? I guess Mickey Mouse and all the other Disney characters are a lie too, instead of just a fantasy in a cartoon?

    Who do you think was the worst U. S. President?

    Someone needs to get their facts straight. Japan basically DARED the US to nuke them into obvlivion. The emperor may have wanted peace, but the military dictators of Japan would have no part of it. When we nuked Hiroshima, the Japanese military dictator's response to that was pretty much...

    Self Esteem Training

    I read the article in the link as well as a couple of others, and I think the British actually have a better concept of raising children than Americans do! Really, when you look at it, allowing people, especially children, to develop their self esteem is nothing but basic common sense.

    Santa Clause

    For me, Santa was always just part of the fun of Christmas. My mom would take me to see him at the mall, and I would get to sit on his lap and get my picture taken with him. But my parents also emphasized the spiritual side of Christmas, too. We went to church the Sunday before Christmas, or...

    how to handle profanity

    I agree that we should not CONDONE this kind of language, however, the point I was trying to make was that it often gets blown completely out of proportion when someone hears a kid say a "cuss word." I don't know if you saw the documentary that aired earlier this year about the NYC...

    Violence crimes

    I don't know if I would have reacted either. Maybe if I was in the parking lot in my car with the safety of distance and my cell phone. Its interesting that United Airlines flight 93 was mentioned. About 3 months after the terror attacks, I went to Paris on an American Airlines 767, out of...

    how to handle profanity

    I'm not sure how Canada's laws work, since I don't live there. However, in reference to young people here in the United States having the same rights under the First Amendment as everyone else, there was actually a Supreme Court case back in 1969 that dealt with that very issue. The case...

    Help prevent gay adoptions in FL

    How many people here honestly believe, without letting religion cloud your thinking, that Rosie O Donnell, the leading advocate FOR gay adoptions in Florida, could not provide a loving caring home for otherwise UNWANTED children simply because she is gay? I think she and many others like her...

    which US president would you want over for dinner?

    Another "West Wing" fan on here! :clap: :clap: :clap: If I could have any real President over, it would be Grant. I would get him so drunk I would have his horse by the end of the night. He didn't deserve such a beautiful horse like Cincinnati.

    Senator Wellstone killed ...

    In the fall in Minnesota? If you're waiting for a clear day, you are going to be waiting a while. They needed to go on that trip that day. If you ask me they would have been better off to take the bus, but hindsight's always 20/20

    how to handle profanity

    As a matter of fact, I work with young children. My cousins, a lot of whom are under the age of 10, have no concept of what "cuss words" really are. I went out to dinner one night with 2 of them, who were maybe 6 and 8 at the time. They had been watching who knows what on TV, mainly watching...

    how to handle profanity

    Its interesting. People have somehow forgotten the First Amendment. You know, the one that guarantees Freedom of Speech? There is no age limit on that right, hate to tell you. One interesting fact, when I was 11th grade, my English teacher taught us the meaning of a lot of these supposed...

    Who was the greatest U. S. president of all time?

    AMEN AMEN AMEN! If you're ever in Richmond, Virginia, you can visit President Davis' grave at Hollywood Cemetery. Its the most beautiful cemetery in Virginia. Overlooks the James' River, just absolutely gorgeous. Its harder to get into than even Arlington National Cemetery. I'm going to be...

    God Angrily Clarifies "Don't Kill" Rule

    They couldn't legally ban it anyway. The Department of Education in Washington DC would have a hissy fit!

    Are you in favor of Republicans or Democrats why?

    Me, I'm a Democrat. Why? Because the republicans quite frankly drive me nuts. They are responsible for the financial mess my state has been in for the last 2 years, but blame it on our Democrat governor. Well, someone forgot to tell the republicans in the legislature that the governor did...
