People are starting to wake up to exactly how crazy they are.

Yes you just can't make this stuff up. So much more funny than comedy shows these days.

Re: Teaching gender stereotypes

Ordaining women is something that the church does not have the authority to change. Could you explain that? Many Christian denominations have done exactly this. In the Catholic church it would require action from the Pope and possibly the Vatican council, but it is not by any means impossible. The ...

Re: Teaching gender stereotypes

I actually got into a couple discussions with feminists about these issues, and I was absolutely floored at how hateful they were! I've learned to be more careful about discussing these topics with women since then. Good for you for holding your ground, Michelle. However, do be careful about catego...

Re: Teaching gender stereotypes

My point is, I feel that all the talk about gender stereotypes is a bit insulting to some of the things that many women naturally prioritize in their lives. I don't see why if men and women are not exactly the same, they are bad. I have some strong opinions on this topic, but suffice it to say... I...

Re: Teaching gender stereotypes

Well put, Michelle. Modern "feminism" is really "masculinism": it says that anything that isn't traditionally masculine is worthless, and that all women should be just like men. How awful would that be! Speaking of awful there's this: Drag queens are being brought into taxpayer-funded nursery schoo...

Re: Screaming helplessly at the sky

What do you consider "real journalism" with regards to the executive branch and the presidency right now, Michellebell? What are your main priorities for how our media holds our government accountable at this point in history? Surely it can't be limited to reporting that some dipshit liberals are b...

Sexualization of children

This makes me so mad! http://humansarefree.com/2017/08/victoria-secret-debuts-5-year-old-girls.html It's like, these people have no shame in their efforts to turn pedophilia into something that is acceptable.

Re: Screaming helplessly at the sky

Here's the difference: The conservatives who disliked Obama bitched and moaned for 8 years. Constantly. But they never went berserk and became violent, felt the need to take time off work or school to cope, or hold ridiculous vigils like the one in the OP. Is this a symptom of the left, or has the ...

Re: Screaming helplessly at the sky

One more anecdote: I actually voted for Obama in 2008. I thought McCain was completely off his rocker and would have an excellent probability of starting WW III. Which is also what I thought about Hillary. So am I a partisan Democrat or a partisan Republican? You be the judge. Also, last night I wa...

Re: Screaming helplessly at the sky

I think it's a Millennial thing that correlates to the left because of generational voting patterns but isn't necessarily caused by it. Basically, acting like a child is trendy these days. http://nypost.com/2015/07/15/adults-are-acting-like-kids-and-it-needs-to-stop/ I agree with all of this. I thi...

Re: A good guy with a gun

I think statistics supports this view, but common sense tells me that the legal NRA members and people who have legally acquired guns and know how to use them properly for self-defense are generally good, honest, law-abiding citizens. It's the people who illegally use guns that are the problem. I d...

Re: Honor / Virtue

Although this particular case is theoretically not political in nature, a lot of the violence certainly is. So since the vast majority of politically-based attacks are by unhinged "progressives", perhaps the first step would be for the "mainstream media" to stop painting all Trump supporters as Naz...

Re: A good guy with a gun

Libertarian666, do you own a gun? I have been thinking about this recently, for obvious reasons. When my first daughter (who is now seven) was a baby, I asked my husband to sell his gun because I was so worried that our children would get ahold of it and accidentally shoot themselves. He did, so now...

Re: Honor / Virtue

Actually I was a little mistaken. The man who owned the gun who shot the Tennessee shooter actually left his gun in the car and confronted the shooter physically. The shooter then accidentally shot himself during the struggle. So I wasn't totally correct. http://dailycaller.com/2017/09/24/22-year-ol...
