Being cruel to animals makes me very sad I do realize that some animal testing is necessary ( meds/vaccinations ) but un- needed ( in my opinion ) cosmetics and fragrance and the "what would happen if" science experiences really bother me.

Is vivisection ethical?
by greendawn indo you believe that vivisection (animal experimentation) that usually involves causing disease or injury to animals for the sake of scientific research is an unethical practice that should be banned?

IF I ever decide to get married again, I would hope that they were not religious at all. Maybe Buddist or Taoist, that would be it. Even better if they don't care if god exists or not.

Same here, Elsewhere. I'm going on vacation for a week with my boyfriends parents to visit his brother and sister in law. I start to panic if I think about it to much

Think of the Children.
by Daunt ini've seen a lot of posts lately about children and their sexuality and this subject has always kind of touched me the wrong way, because it was hard for me to get a definitive answer for it.
the children today hear sexual content many times out of the day.
i was never specifically worried about this since i am one of these young ones and it hasn't made me a raging ignorant sexual deviant anytime lately but it is something to consider.

The stir probably made it more interesting to the teens, forbidden fruit and all that. We have a liberal community mixed heavily with strict religious groups so there was good debate for a while in the papers.
Hope it's of some use to you.

This booklet is handed out to kids in my local school system with their parents written consent.
http://www.gov.ns.ca/ohp/publications/Sex_A_Healthy_Sexuality_Resource.pdf
I have not read it thru, so I can't offer an opinion. But it caused a stir for it's extensive information on safer sex, sexual assaults, pregancy etc. Maybe some of the parents will want to bookmark or print it for future use?

I agree with you Daunt. It should be presented as an option, but the other side ( precautions to take ) needs to be stressed as well.
It's the Libra in me, I like things to be equal and balanced.
If I have children, they will have all the information they need from a young age.

I get bored with my jobs too. I'm currently having a debate with myself in my head over whether I should change careers again.

I don't see anything wrong with preaching abstinence, but safe sex needs to be preached as well. Just telling kids not to do it is plain stupid in my opinion. There is always going to be curiosity and experimentation going on so they need to know how to protect themselves. Details are importatnt and options should always be stressed.

I also have to compulsively check my teeth for stray particles after I eat in public. If I don't then I don't want to talk to anyone and I smile with my lips closed.
Checks in mirror? ~ in the thousands
Food in teeth? ~ to date only a lone poopyseed
