As a skeptic I want to ask this question. If in Eden, which was/is supposed to be paradise no less, and with God right there available as a guide, if given those conditions man could not follow God, what sense does it make that any majority of mankind would follow him now?

Snow White and the 7 Dwarfs are busy fixing up their humble abode. The 7 Dwarfs are out back working in the bottom of the water well.

That afternoon, Snow White is preparing dinner for the evening when she hears a very loud crash out back and knows immediately that the well has collapsed. She runs out the door to see if anyone is alive.

Leaning over the well, she yells down “hello” hoping that somebody will respond. She hears nothing and yells again, “say something if you can hear me!”

A faint voice from the bottom of the well comes back, “vote for Hillary.”

Snow White is quite relieved and says, “Oh thank goodness! At least Dopey survived!”

My husband and I have a 3 year old son. We are good parents who have specific, thoroughly - researched guidelines for how we want him to be raised. Certain members of his family, however (especially his wonderful sister), offer us unwanted "advice" constantly. It's not really advice, so much as it's constant judging and criticism of EVERYTHING - how we dress him and cut his hair, what we feed (and don't feed) him, how we want to educate him, discipline, safety precautions, etc. We are GOOD parents who wouldn't do anything we didn't think was right for our son, but we are still judged on most of the things we do. Here's the thing - while she's worked with kids for a few years, she has none of her own. Hubby blew up at her tonight, which really caused some family tension. I didn't want to get involved, but I agree with Hubby. It's disheartening to get this constant criticism. I want to be the peacemaker, but explain to her how we feel so she'll understand. Any suggestions?
