Norm Keller replied to Unseen's discussion 'What's the matter with parents today?'"What may have changed (my grey hair also shows) is that social acceptability used to have definite consequences in the community. Today it does not.
When I was young, for example, we were told not to interfere with others' pets when visiting…"
Norm Keller replied to Unseen's discussion 'What's the matter with parents today?'"There is an old Persian saying which goes something like: "No one likes an undisciplined dog or an undisciplined child but the dog or the child doesn't know why it is not liked. Therefore, it is the duty of the dog's owner or the…"
Unseen replied to Norm Keller's discussion 'Here's your chance to learn all the truth'"According to Leviticus (an absolute goldmine of biblical weirdness), " Bringing unauthorized fire before God" is punishable by death." (Lev 10:1)
I don't want to die, so where do I go to get my fire authorized?"
Diane replied to Norm Keller's discussion 'Here's your chance to learn all the truth'"What I would like to know is does Jesus watch people having sex? How do religious people tune out that thought when they're bumping uglies? "
Gregg R Thomas replied to Norm Keller's discussion 'Here's your chance to learn all the truth'"No Cain and Able were Gay and married each other. They then got in a domestic fight where one of them was accidentally killed.
A sad ending to the first Gay marriage. (or at least that's how I remember it)"
_Robert_ replied to Norm Keller's discussion 'Here's your chance to learn all the truth'"Did Cain and Able marry their sisters?"

Norm Keller replied to Unseen's discussion 'What is the downside of affordable healthcare?'"There are many among us, here in Canada, insist that health care must be identical for all. They hold, not that no one should receive less than a certain level of care, but rather that no one should be able to obtain more than a defined level…"
Norm Keller replied to Unseen's discussion 'What is the downside of affordable healthcare?'"That is, in effect, the reality of our system in Canada. It does seem that there is some movement, resisted strongly by the socialized medicine adherents, to allowing some private access.
I agree with your point of view, Unseen, but those who have…"
Norm Keller replied to Unseen's discussion 'What is the downside of affordable healthcare?'"If blowing of systems occurred then the management of the power generation system was botched. (Power Engineer)

Norm Keller replied to Unseen's discussion 'What is the downside of affordable healthcare?'"Have you evidence for this assertion: "Michael Moore's movie Sicko has more truth in it than you would really like to believe." It would be interesting to know how you assess the degree to which someone else would really like to…"
Norm Keller replied to Unseen's discussion 'What is the downside of affordable healthcare?'"I have to agree with Arcus that socialized medicine is not a panacea. Our health care costs in Canada continue to rise, such that medical is now the largest single budget item for provincial governments. In most cases the medical costs are equal to…"
Norm Keller replied to Mike 2000's discussion 'Religion derived from serious philosophy?'"You may not have gone far enough, Reg.
When a catholic (they don't deserve a capital, IMO) claims humility, I feel rage. Anyone who remains part of that malignant organization lacks the capacity for either morality or humility, IMO.
If I were…"
Norm Keller replied to Mike 2000's discussion 'Religion derived from serious philosophy?'"The only thing less humble than a christian is....two christians!
I do wonder how one can assert that "religion loses its way when it abandons humility"? What "way" might that be? How could a direction or "way" be…"
