You would remind yourself that she's been hurt in the past, that she's scared, and that she just wants to take it slow. You'd take into consideration that sometimes when people feel good again it helps to refresh the pain of the one they lost... and you'd be supportive if she wanted to ease up a little because you don't want to not be there for her.
You'd remember that sometimes people feel guilty for feeling things they once thought they'd only feel with someone else. You'd remind yourself of how good of a time you had with her and know that sometimes people want to sabotage something good for fear of losing the new person and this helps them feel more secure knowing that they're the one in the driver's seat with the control over loss. Be sweet, listen, comfort her, and be there. |

So you meant "They might just be about as slow or limited in intellectual or emotional development as yours?" Sorry, that doesn't make sense. I believe I was right on my first call that you meant my arguments were stupid.
That doesn't make sense to you, but it makes perfect sense to me. If you want to assume that retarded means stupid, I think it's a problem on your part... and maybe you're not as nice to your son as you think you are.
No, I don't believe that retarded means stupid, it means delayed. You used retarded to mean stupid. You should grow up a little and admit your mistake. It's not easy admitting a mistake, but it will help you to grow as a person.
This is the last time I'll post on this subject. It's clear to me you just enjoy fighting. It's immature and extremely boring. You say what you mean and I say what I mean and if you want to continue assuming what you THINK I'm saying, that's on you. Have fun with that. Go play with yourself. Oh, and by that, I don't mean masturbate in a sexual way, just in an emotionally arrested way. |

I'll accept that, but I maintain that I meant it by its true definition, and not what spidercmb insists he thinks I meant.
I apologize to anyone I may have offended by using that term. |

| Topic: Bible Question... |
Sun 08/31/08 09:01 AM |
As far as the bible goes, yes... premarital sex and homosexual sex are both considered sins. While I don't agree with homosexuality being okay, I have no right to say they are bigger sinners than myself. I probably do worse things every day. If someone feels the need to attack me for my beliefs, so be it. I don't go around bashing gay people because they're gay, and I've had a few gay friends over the years that know my beliefs.
Everyone has the right to make their own choices in life... it says in the bible that you can either choose life or death. Those that freely do what's considered to be wrong (on purpose and without repentence) are supposedly choosing death, and the ones who repent and try to do better are supposedly choosing eternal life in His kingdom. Who really knows for certain until we get there, but common sense tells me to aim for eternal life. I can only hope I get to that point. |

| You assumed that I meant "stupid" by saying something was retarded. I didn't. I believe you were the one saying that what I said was bad, terrible, whatever... which is YOUR opinion. I said my arguments may be as "retarded" as yours. I never said that I find the definition of that word to be "stupid," so maybe you should be the one feeling ashamed for assuming that I'm just like everyone else. I've also known people with mental disabilities and think they're much nicer than a lot of people who don't. Then again, some people who supposedly aren't disabled or "special" certainly could be classified as disabled in some ways. Try not to assume. Contrary to your obvious beliefs, you don't know everything. |

Wow. This has to be one of the lamest arguments yet. I don't think everyone should use birth control, but I most certainly believe that if less men were "getting it up," we wouldn't need all the birth control anyway!!

Those are terrible arguments. I hope you realize that.
They might just be about as retarded as yours...
Try to use a less offensive word. Stupid is fine. Ignorant. Silly. Illogical. The use of that word in that way is offensive.
First you're going to insult the intelligence of my post, then you're going to criticize the way I express my feelings? Just who do you think you are, anyway? Somewhere in here you feel you're more intelligent than many of the posters on these issues.
The way you phrased your statement offended me about as much as the way I phrased mine offended you. Let's be real here... we're both allowed to have conflicting opinions, and I don't have to follow any of your advice... |

| I've had it happen to me... sometimes no matter how appealing the person is on the other line, sleep wins. It's a natural human function. Now if he said "Hey, I'm sorry, I have to go, my friends brought over a stripper," then you could consider him a jerk and move on. Give the guy a break.. he's tired! |

So... how is that a correct analogy?
A woman can have sex, without the pill, right?
A man cannot have sex without Viagra, right?
Pregnancy is due to the natural workings of her body, right?
Impotence is the result of a medical condition, right?
There is no commonality between "The Pill" and "Viagra", there are two completely different reasons for those drugs.
So, all men can't have sex without Viagra? And why shouldn't insurance cover birth control?
I believe that Viagra would only be covered by insurance with a prescription.

I'm still confused...
You said:
100 KB/sec non stop downloading = 259.2 GB / month
300 KB/sec is a standard streaming movie/porn/youtube what not. = 777.6GB /month
500 KB /sec non stop downloading = 1296 GB per month.
Is the middle one (the 300KB/sec) also at a non-stop rate to make 777.6 GB a month, or is this just for a certain amount of them? I don't download, but sometimes I watch shows and listen to a lot of music (legally). I'm sooo cornfuzed I cant hardly thank strate... lol |
