Neutral - but dispute their spin on it

Posted By: don't think its religious on 2007-11-19
In Reply to: Are you for or against roadside - memorials?

Its been a time-honored symbol for a long time to mark graves with a simple cross.  What's next, all cemetaries will have to be redone because the beautiful religious art offends some fool attending a funeral?


I do question WHY people feel the need to decorate someone's death site, though.  That's what graves are for, IMHO.  I guess it does serve as a good warning that spot might be dangerous, but its a bit depressing if you drive by it every day.


I live in an area near a civil war battlefield, which is a federal park now.  There are memorials everywhere.  The art on some is awesome.  I'm confused as to why states from both sides of the civil war have erected monuments there, but hey, whatever makes people happy.  Again, its a question of why decorate a death site, but the feds seem to be all for it in the name of history.  I'd sure hate to see any of these monuments removed because somebody saw something religious on them and got offended.

After the 2 weeks I have had with my buyer I would recommend you file a dispute as a not as describe
My seller took 35 days to finally mail, sent me invalid UPS tracking number, package was 6 books short and books were in deplorable condition and I filed a 'not received' too early cuz then he mailed and now I cannot file 'not as described' as you can only file one complaint per purchase.... so I'm screwed unless he agrees to accept return.... but thinking he will probably take my money, the books and run - only 25 feedback so new seller... I'm talking with Paypal now and may file with my credit card company next week - not quite sure I understand chargeback programyet
You can try to spin it, but you just sound very

So because she was in the public eye she shouldn't have had sex, and because you weren't it's okay?  That makes no sense.  Parents can use her situation as an opening to talk about how teen pregnancy can happen to anyone and how careful they need to be if they do decide to have sex (not to mention STDs, obviously).  People are so up in arms because she's supposed to be a role model, but she's still human, and she is still a teenager with out of control hormones.  Plus, her mom was letting her shack up with the guy, which wasn't smart, obviously.


I find it astounding that you are judging her decision to keep an unplanned baby when you terminated one of your own babies.  I would think you would be empathetic with her if anything, for you have both been in the position of being pregnant unexpectedly and having to make a very difficult decision.  It just seems odd to me.  I will say it again - being in your 20s or 30s does not mean you will be a good parent.  Sadly, there are horrible parents all over the world of all ages.


I am neutral on this but will say those circumstances where you were intimate were not terribly sexy
I don't see medical care in any way similar to sexy people dancing against each other in sexy ways ;-)
just my 3 cents - Spin The Bottle is okay for you...
very curious............
Spin the bottle with 2nd graders, sure
not. I was reading this last night and that was the first thing that came to mind when I read about Valentine's party and told my hubby I was going to post a spin the bottle. That should get some thought. He and I both had a laugh. Of course, not, you silly bunny....
