    Bishop punishes mom for daughter's abortion

    That question sounds more like an invitation to an argument that you intend to win than genuine curiosity about my opinion. You're correct that I have some interest in the topic, but it's more of the idle curiosity type than a desire to jump into the fray and defend my viewpoint. Whether...

    Bishop punishes mom for daughter's abortion

    Regardless, one cannot discuss "right to life" without bringing religion into the discussion. And hasn't the topic of abortion been discussed here ad nauseam? why bring this up again? people are either for it against it, and it's a topic that people have strong feelings about. It's inevitable...

    Bishop punishes mom for daughter's abortion

    It seems to me that this thread invites criticism of a faith, in the guise of inviting debate about abortion. I don't see any threads critical of right-wing Christian actions. If the article were about a Baptist pastor criticizing a mother for allowing her daughter to have an abortion, would...

    why it's hard to meet a decent guy online

    Gemma, it's nice to know that hearing guys can be just as boorish. I've had guys I just met online say things I doubt they'd say to a woman in person. At least not if they don't want a knee in the nuts. :D

    paybacks a bitchhh

    He'd still be around if he hadn't opened his mouth. I hope the mother gets out of jail, I doubt anyone who has been raped or is the mother of a rape victim would have had the self-control to keep from doing what that mother did.

    cool information for history fans for sunken ships

    Interesting, thanks for posting the link! I have to wonder just how the Germans knew it was carrying war materiel and thus would be a legitimate target.

    Interesting thing about hearing people and chirping fire alarm

    My dog goes nuts when he hears the low-battery chirp. The first time, it took me a while to figure out what he was barking at. I wonder if other peoples' dogs try to let them know about the chirping?

    Is Windex good for cleaning eyeglasses?

    I've always used rubbing alcohol and a "flour sack" dishtowel I keep specially for that purpose. It's good for getting greasy smudges off that water won't clean, and it dries fast. I never had a problem, but I don't have the Transitions lenses.

    why it's hard to meet a decent guy online

    can you tell me if it's just deaf guys who make crude comments about the size of my breasts, and even speculate about how, when and if I masturbate, or do all guys do this? Is it because we're communicating on the Internet that they feel they can get away with being crude and 7th-grade? It...

    I Refuse

    More or less. There's not much I can do to change my family at this late date, so I'm not wasting time stewing about it. :)

    I Refuse

    It isn't fair that I can speak and have people understand me but they can't sign to make themselves understood to me. However, I understand that the majority of people on this planet can hear and speak, and I can't expect the world to change to accommodate my deafness. I'm talking about people...

    AllDeaf Forum Etiquette

    I'm confused...isn't the purpose of a forum to be able to express your views? I understand that a forum is controlled by Admin, that there are rules that the forum creator decides on, and let's face it, how many people actually read all the rules before joining and/or posting? And then...

    Salma Hayek Breastfeeds an African Baby

    I agree with Bottesini. This smacks of a publicity stunt more than a humanitarian gesture. I doubt Angelina Jolie would have done that. It would have been better if Salma had donated money or brought a large supply of baby formula, God knows she can afford it-her new hubby is a billionaire...

    a new reason to stay married

    This guy says that people should stay married because divorced couples use more resources than if they'd stayed together. Excuse me, but he ought to be telling people to make sure they marry the right person, instead of thinking everyone should stay married no matter what, just to reduce...

    Remembering troubled roots, a healer reaches back

    I watched some of that movie last night. It's amazing what a person can do once they set their mind to do something. They should show that movie in schools.

    Germans take clothes off in Brazilian airport

    This probably doesn't do much to improve Germany's image in the eyes of the rest of the world! ;)

    Anybody hungry??

    I dunno, I wonder what context that confession was made-was it an offhand, flippant, authority-resenting "because we were hungry and McDonald's was closed" remark, or an "gee, I was busted, maybe if I sound like a psycho they'll go easy on me" remark. Or maybe they didn't eat anything and just...
