Do gunophobes annoy you?

uath13 @uath13 (8192) • United States 27 Dec 10

I keep seeing more & more discussions on this & other sites created by people who I can only clasify as gunophobes. Their irational fear blinds them to simple logic. They think guns should be banned & that would solve the problem...

joerhonda Isn't that the truth! lol The only difference is, snakes and leeches are what they are. They don't try to be something else. Happy New Year to you Uath13!

joerhonda Yup, they annoy me! I am all for my 2nd Amendment right to bear arms! We have guns in our home also, for protection and hunting purposes. For me, it's not the criminals I worry about should our right to bear arms be taken away, it's the Government I'm afraid...

Ok, Christians, this one is for you!

ParaTed2k @ParaTed2k (22940) • Sheboygan, Wisconsin 28 Dec 10

I am a Christian, but there are a few mainstream Christian doctrines that I just don't understand, nor can I find them anywhere in the Holy Bible. For instance, the Protestant concept of what we'll be doing in Heaven. Do you...

joerhonda I don't know of any where in the Bible that it says that either, but what you need to remember is that these are "religious" teachings. Each religion has broken off from another form of religion at some point in history, all because there was something they...

Each Major Religion Claims That it Has a Purpose~To Reach Out & Help Its Fellow

Adoniah @Adoniah (7513) • United States 27 Dec 10

Man. So, why do so many people live bereft in loveless, friendless vacuums; no families or friends to turn to when they are sad or need someone to talk to? Why are there so many suicides in this world? Where are all these...

joerhonda Adoniah...I agree with you. The churches have fallen way short. It amazes me how they can travel thousands of miles to help people in other countries, but turn their backs on their own community and people. I'm not opposed to helping other people in other...

Teaching to the test

ElicBxn @ElicBxn (63594) • United States 21 Dec 10

That is what is going on in schools these days. Now, everyone says its a bad idea, and I agree. I also say that its hard to not want to do it, since that is how a school is JUDGED these days - on how many kids PASS those darn...

joerhonda ElicBxn, I couldn't agree with you more'! The problem is that schools are not ment for learning as we perceive them. Public schools were not formed to educate our children, but to mold them. It's all a mind game. True we may never use Algebra in our lives, but...

When you have a day off do you sleep in or get up around the same time as usual?

thedaddym @thedaddym (1731) • United States 21 Dec 10

I always get up at the same time no matter if I have to go to work or stay home I just can't stay in bed longer than normal. My wife loves to sleep in if she has the chance. What about you, do you sleep in or get up as usual on...

joerhonda I'm like you. I couldn't sleep past 6:00 if my life depended on it! LOL I've often wished that I could sleep a little later. The other thing I can't do is walk around the house all day in my PJ's! I have to get up, have my coffee and get dressed, even if I...

joerhonda I believe you should get an increase, but it all about government control! People think that this is a free country and it's not! The government controls every aspect of our lives! Everything that happens in this country and every decision that is made in DC...

Time to go back to old fashioned whippings?

fwidman @fwidman (11514) • United States 21 Dec 09

joerhonda Amen to that! I agree with you 110%! We have brought up a lazy, spoon fed generation! Thanks Dr. Spock! The kids these days have no ambition or respect and it burns my butt! I believe some of it's the way they were raised and some of it is us letting the...

joerhonda Don't be upset, some kids just take longer than others...Instead of using Pampers on him at night, try using pull-ups. This gives them more of a feeling of wearing underwear. Every child is different so don't compare him to other 41/2 year olds. They all have...
