  er ... on second thoughts, don't answer that!.

  just to let you know i'm back from my trip to visit my dad in canada.. he's doing ok ... he's out of hospital and was looking a lot better when i left.

  he still feels a bit poorly during the night but hopefully he'll get over this and i hope he doesn't start overdoing things again.. it was great to see my sister and her family again ... i promised my niece that she could come over and stop with us for he summer hols (hey, kids here only have a few weeks off ... i didn't know they had months!).

  neonmadman posted an intriguing question in his thread "the baby and the bath water" concerning the paths that we took when we left the society in order to get to where we are now.

  unfortunately, much of that thread was highjacked into something irrelevant to the topic, but i wanted to respond and posted part of an answer on the thread.

  i wrote this some time ago and sent it to a sister who was sticking her neck out trying to get me to come back in.

  Why do us men do all the bad stuff?

  by sleepy in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  it seams to me that through out history men have allways commited the worst crimes against humanity.. from despot rulers to serial killers and petty crime , men do the most.. yet to me it seams that on a personnal level men get on better with each other than women.. women are often very senseitive and take offence much more easily.. they can be very bitchy and manipulative.. often men will have an aurgument with a friend and the next day all will be forgotten , while a women can take years to forgive.. so what is it about mens psychology that makes them commit worse crimes than women?.

  or it there just the fact that they are physicaly stronger?.

  i wonder that if in the future , women are in positions of power more that they will act worse than men have, or if they will show more compassion for others?

  Having babies irresponsibly without a father

  hhhmmm last time I looked it took two to make a baby...now where are those men that "helped"...oh PRISON most likely. So not only are they irresponsible but violent lawbreakers.

  Xena who can sterotype with the best of them...

  The taking of offence rests in the heart of the stupid one"

  Tat...recognized this??? Typical blameshifting response...I said something stupid but now I am going to try and make it appear that you are the stupid one...

  Now back to the original subject...

  I think typically most women value life more BECAUSE they give birth. lol 36 hours of labor and you will look at life a whole lot differently. Of course there are exceptions to every rule! Men tend to be more aggressive possibly due to messages sent in society that "real men" are this way. Women seem to be pressured by society to look a certain way and men to act a certain way...maybe this contributes to the difference.

  I think SixofNine made a good point about power too! Men traditionally have been in positions of power and had more opportunites to abuse it...lol much as I would like to think women would do a better and more compassionate job..who really knows for sure???

  Found this point interesting on the Niagra Falls section:

  You said that the erosion of the river gourge has taken place over the past 12,000 years. This would not tie in with the Bibles account of a global deluge

  R.P. Britain

  "Awake!" responds: We simply presented the current estimates given by geologists, with no comment as to how accurate they might be. Such estimates absolutely do not take into considerations the Bible's account of the Noachian Flood, which evidently took place less than 3,000 years ago. - Mathew 24:37.

  lol not sure just how that scripture supports their dating of the flood...it EVIDENTLY took place???...it is funny too how they put out an article and then come back and say they are not sure how "accurate" the info is? They don't even site a specific geologist...at least they don't note one here. Great reporting, huh?

  this is a link to a list of openly homosexual politicians in the US...now I don't know their relationship status...but if they are openly gay I would assume they are living with a memeber of the same sex...or at least did at one time.
