  1. Why do I feel like I'm talking to a child?

     

    Had to get out my calculator and crunch the numbers on how many generations are in a thousand years, roughly 33 generations of collective consciousness, passed down through a long line. I'll stick to what we know for sure. I've raised mine and am done, am a grandfather and it is up to the next batch of parents to do what they they think is correct.

     

    In disciplining children, parents should do everything as kindly and gently as they can first. They should try to understand a child, make sure the child understands what is expected of them, use reasoning and find an adequate nonphysical consequence, like a "timeout" or taking away privileges. But if the child won't cooperate, some kids — at least some of the time — need something more forceful to back it up.

     

    But it's naive to conclude that parents are causing kids to be more aggressive by using spanking. How is any other form of discipline better, going to their rooms,grounding, removing privileges, etc. better? These other forms of disciplining don't/can't cause aggression? No , then that is faulty logic. Where is the mention of stages of cognitive development in your supposed scientific tunnel vision?

     

     

    What does the number of generations have to do with anything?

    Why does it seem like you are not reading what I say, or not responding to what I say?

    Who said anything about sending them to their rooms, grounding, and removing priviledges? 

    Ugh, you are so dishonest.

  2.  

    An entire community comes out looking by having the same concerns with the environment, the spanking was a positive re-enforcement to insure that it not ever happen again. Disgust?  Well I can imagine you being in the airbus flying to Europe behind me and your child, kicks the back of my seat  for the entire 8 hours, pleading, bribery, threats, nothing worked for them. And no there were no other seats available. Ref. the parents who were brow beaten into not spanking at an early age, don't want to say what they turned into later in life. That is disgusting the lack of courage.

     

     

    Yes, because peacefully brought up children are totally like that. They dont care what their parents think or say, they have no relationship at all with their parents and view them with hatred, ridicule and distrust. They have no conception of anything, and just do whatever they want, whenever they want. Of course they just sit for 8 hours kicking the back of the seat, and ignore anything and everything that is said to them, and the ONLY way to stop them is to hit them, of course. Makes perfect sense. To you, theres no reason for this behaviour, no reason for this breakdown in communication, they do it "just because". Deep down , thats what you believe about children , they are destructive, uncaring, evil troublemakers who need to be controlled and bent to someone elses will. If thats what you believe, then it makes sense that you would believe in punishment and hitting. You dont believe that children will respond to being shown respect, understanding and kindness by learning respect understanding and kindness

     

    A disgusting strawman to go along with your disgusting views.

  3.  

     

    There was no need to threaten, a simple look, or a no was sufficient.

     

     

     

     

     

     

    Right, the threat was still there though, implicit in the "simple look". And if a simple no was sufficient, why did you need to hit( in other instances)?

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    We have high snow banks on our roads, this town we lived in was at the 3500 foot level. My son used to love to jump off the hard pack berm of snow into the soft stuff. Trouble was it was over 6 feet deep. After telling him a few times not to, explaining that he may suffocate, be unable to climb out, freeze to death, not be found till the spring,etc. One day he just disappeared. My wife and I went nuts looking and calling, fearing the worst. Whole town was mobilized looking for him, several hours later he was found down at the recreation hall. What was he doing?, "He was hiding from everyone",he said big grin on his face.

     

    I achieved what I wanted, showed the world is a dangerous place, children need to be taught what is acceptable or not, they need guidance and they must listen absolutely on some issues.

     

    I firmly believe that if parents don't teach their kids, right,wrong and danger they get another chance in school if that don't work, then the RCMP get a third chance ,believe by then it is to late for any correction in most cases.

     

    Know several sets of parents, where the children threaten the parents with telling these progressive teachers they have been spanked, and are afraid of losing their children. Absolute high minded idiocy in our society imho.

     

     

     

     

     

    Yuk. By hitting someone, you dont show that the world is a dangerous place. You show that you are dangerous.

     

    I dont really care what you "firmly believe". Hitting people is not "teaching right from wrong" or "teaching them what is acceptable"

     

    You disgust me.

  4.  

     

    Someone wrote a hug and a kiss, to regain reality, after being kicked by the child. Never tried that... sincerely doubt that would work. Some of you parents must be severely exhausted with this non-violent method and the normal parenting must suffer.

     

     

     

    This sentence implies that you think "normal" parenting is violent

     

    My children are now adults and have children of their own,all are doing well. I spanked my kids three or 4 times under my care when they were a danger to themselves or to someone else. 

     

     

    So , apart from 3 or 4 times in their life, you used non violent parenting? You didnt threaten them with physical violence? 

     

    Can you give an example of where you needed to spank, what you wanted to achieve, and how you achieved it?

  5. There is a type, the fundamentalist materialist, who would deny any merely empirical-miraculous proof, such as burning Hebrew letters 30° in the nighttime sky, reading "I AM GOD WHO EXISTS".  It would be rationalised away by them, as a bit of underdone potato or what have you.  They are operating on a rational-logical level but not an intellectual level (Cusa).  Go through what I have written again and consider that you may be missing the point because of your idol-worship.

     

    Doesnt matter how many times I read it, its still not proof of god.

     

    And what idol worship are you talking about?

  6. The speculation is by the Portuguese police investigator, and he put it rather bluntly in his report.  You did read it, right?  I think I put the link someplace above.  

     

     

     

    he put in his report, in 2007, that the podesta brothers were guilty of this?

     

     

     

     

     

    And the near perfect match of two suspects descriptions with the Podesta brothers...that's two matches...and they were staying 1/3 mile away at the time, at the villa of a world class pedophile.  That's a bit much on the innocent-coincidence scale.  

     

     

    As I mentioned in a previous post, the photofit evidence was about the only true bit of evidence in the whole thing. And as such, is worthy of further investigation. 

     

    And by the way, the girl is dead, the police dogs found blood and cadaver scent in the parent's car, the apartment, the mother's pants.  D..E..A...D.  So no matter who did it, somebody did it.  That's not speculation.  The young child didn't spontaneously just up and die, putting her blood in spots on a wall.  It seems that the brothers who are near spittin' images for two wanted posters, known to be in the area during the crime, staying at a veritable HQ of world class pedophilia, would be a darned good place to start looking.  

     

     

    Not sure what you are saying here? Shes dead, therefore the podestas are guilty? Of course if shes dead, someone did it. but who?

    Also, they killed her before they took her out of the apartment? 

     

  7. Christianity cuts to the eschatological quick.  Primarily speaking, it does not measure deeds or even virtue, but belief.  Strange, that, eh?  I think so, too. But, let's think about it.  Beliefs rule a man's life.  His virtues will come as a result of what he believes.  And his deeds will flow from his virtues or his lack thereof.  This is all in accord with what Stefan teaches. So belief is the primary thing, in terms of judging a man's worth, even his æternal worth.

     

    Why just one life to determine said worth? you may ask. Why not one life? If man has free will, and if God is just, then God will ascertain whether or not if man's opportunities to believe were fair or not, and judge accordingly.

     

    And we must be wary of condemning the ancients or the heathens, who, too, are subject to judgement on belief, and who are subject to what the Church terms the Baptism of Desire.  Remember that we are talking not of a superficial assent to a statement of faith, we are talking about a movement of the heart, even towards that which it has no external, explicit experience of.

     

    Is Hell too awful to countenance for anyone, even those popularly deemed the worst? If you had the full, complete, fair opportunity to align yourself with that which grants you origin, meaning, morality, and destiny—that from whom you have acquired your life itself and all the good opportunities that life contains, then why should your æternal sentence not reflect that?

     

    So, you may underestimate yourself. You may already be a Christian implicitly, in your heart, and find that the explicit expression of Christianity has due to corruption and bowdlerisation jars. Or, contrariwise, you may be secretly in rebellion against God and are using conceptual tactics to deny his legitimacy.

     

    If we have a reasonable faith that God is just, then we should work more on ourselves to improve our hearts, and on the world, than we should on God trying to second-guess his authority.

     

    So what you are saying is, its good to believe in something without sufficient proof? And, if you dont believe in something without sufficient proof, then its ok to torture you for the rest of eternity? 

    Ok then

  8. Its not known that madeleine mccann is a victim of these people. Its speculation

     

    Whoever downvoted me for this post, please explain how its not speculation? Or how it is known, for sure, that madeleine mcann is a victim of these people?

  9. I think you are getting too hung up on the concept of "true self". 

    I think you are also misapplying or misunderstanding various other concepts.

    You seem to be pretty lost and floundering about in your own head. I would recommend therapy, as it is very useful to have someone else listen to your thoughts and ideas and help you out of your maze.

  10. That sounds good, but do PC's even come with burners anymore and is burning updates to a disc something that you can actually do? It's been a while since I built my own computer or bought one. 

     

     

    Well, usb sticks. Or external hard drives. or whatever. Not sure about whether you can install updates offline. I would imagine that some at least, expect and need an internet connection to be present.

  11.  

    But what about the "proponent" who is not seeking to prove "superguy" exists or to demand that others recognize "superguy," but simply asserts that the proponent is personally satisfied of the existence of "superguy" or a (presumed material) superior being?  Can the simple asserter's "satisfaction" never be considered rational?

     

     

     

    Not if his reasoning isnt rational and logical , no.

  12. a problem I can see with that is that your definition

     

    V = P AND C is not valid, in that you can have voting without coercion

     

    so you could have V = P OR ( V = P AND C)

     

    With regards to determinism, you realise that you are discounting the validity of determinism, without actually showing that its not valid. Determinism could be true, in which case your argument is valid.

  13. I dont see how you can be any sort of honest or good for your stepson if , every time you tell the truth and the mom doesnt like it, she blows up. Are you willing to accept lying to your stepson, dodging questions from him, saying things that the mom wants you to say, stepping on eggshells for fear of her reaction? Sounds like a horrible way to live.

  14. Podesta was buddies with three child molesters.  How many child molesters do you know?  How many were you buddies with?

     

    Right, still not proof of anything though. Certainly worth further investigation, no doubt
