silvatungfox Since cats (and dogs for that matter) think in pictures rather than in words, it would really depend on what your daughter was thinking of just before, during and after she spoke kitty. Animals language is more complex owing to the thought energies involved....

I've always thought that the point of the womens movement was for equal gender rights. The basis being that a woman can be strong willed, run a business, raise a family and basically do what ever she sets her mind to do. Why do...

silvatungfox Obama is just less dangerous a choice than Palin and McCain. I doubt there will ever be a "perfect" candidate in anyone's view. The "bigger issue" as you call it it comes down to Obama being the lesser of the evils.

silvatungfox As with any label you will find a variety of sematics and even more definitions as to what that label implies. One issue feminists may lay claim to the label based upon their support of equal pay for equal work. I would not argue with them over this, since...

silvatungfox In the 60's and 70's the feminist movement worked to change social and medical values to give women the status of full person rather than uterine vessel for babies. Palin and other "feminists for life" miss the mark since they show little interest in...

silvatungfox Actually I am not using old words in a new way, more like using original definitions. While wikipedia is a reasonable online source for definitions, there are far more elaborative tomes with varieties of definitions.. usually called dictionaries or...

silvatungfox Manners implies a personal interaction. I have defined it in my first post. You can be ethical and never have face to face contact, for instance being ethical in business you can interact with your customers without any face to face meeting, solve their...

silvatungfox Morals indicate a personal belief in what is right/wrong or good/evil and are dictated by your belief system or come from your relationship to your "god". Ethics on the other hand are the social situation, where one might apply their morals. I would far rather...

silvatungfox You confuse morals and ethics. Morals are a personal situation between one's "god" and themselves. Ethics is the social medium and deals with the way people treat each other. This is a common error to confuse the two, having been blurred by the religious right...

silvatungfox Thanks Phantsy, I have been saying it the way I see it for longer than most. Before it was popular I had an impeach Bush bumper sticker. I can remember when I first put it on getting flipped off a lot, then last year I had folks giving me a thumbs up a lot.....

silvatungfox I have no problem defending polygamy as long as all parties enter into it of their own free will. Plural marriages still happen outside the law, I know some folks who are doing that, it would not be my choice, but I would defend their right to engage in it....
