First of all I CAN read. I actually like to read and am very good at it, but lately I can't seem to finish an entire book at will. I have an entire shelf of books and the newest ones are all only half-read. Does anyone know what could have caused this sudden disinterest?

According to the article below, last month's U.S. Supreme Court ruling upholding a national ban on so-called partial birth abortion has encouraged abortion rights opponents to shift tactics. The anti-abortion rights movement has escalated a campaign for state laws that require women to be offered ultrasounds or information on fetal development, The New York Times reported. "We think of ourselves as very pro-woman," Wanda Franz, president of the National Right to Life Committee, told the Times. "We believe that when you help the woman, you help the baby." Pro-choice groups say they'd like a woman and her medical doctor to make health decisions, instead of legislators. http://www.sciencedaily.com/upi/index.php?feed=TopNews&article=UPI-1-20070522-17171900-bc-us-abortion.xml

Why do you think anti-choice groups think they're "pro-woman"?

To say God has no purpose, therefore is not, seems rather arrogant to me. It reminds me of a story I once heard of a husband who once came home to his tidy house, with the flowers growing in the window box, the lawn was mowed, the kids were neatly tucked into bed, and dinner was waiting for him on the table. Ignoring all this, staring at a faint stain on the carpet where his son had spilled some red cool-aid, and with contempt, he asked his wife what she did all day.
Ignoring the comment, she smiled at him sweetly, and kissed him (as she did every evening). As he sat down, she took his boots off, brought him a cold glass of lemon-aid, and asked him how his day went. He went to bed that night, dreaming on how he could get rid of this monsterous leach he had been calling his wife.
Does this make any sense? Comments please, Thanks.

Someone help me.This sensitivity is taking over me.At first I ignore other people's comments,for eg,a guy just giggled at a FUNNY thing I had said.I dont mind his giggling but later lets say,when I'm alone,after 4 or 5 hours,these thoughts will start coming up in my head and imagination of " Why was he giggling?" " he must be thinking of me stupid " ------------------------------------etc-------and then I keep thinking----How will I ever manage to walk this world alone when everyone and I mean EVERYONE will just laugh at me.Seriously,I get this only 10% but I dont know,I just feel these things and become negative about them and cant block negative thoughts out of my head,IM JUST TOO SENSITIVE.I wish I could never FEEL anything!!Atleast I would get rid of this problem!!(sensitivity).

The way I see it, if the man has to submit to the woman by being the first to take the initiatve and speak to her (ask her out), get on his knees and proposing to the woman, has to be the assertive one, he has to pay for wedding ring, he pays most of the rent and for the car, he is usually the breadwinner, he pays for the dates and dinners and shopping sprees, is it only *fair* to at least let the man be the leader of the household? Do certain women find that notion to be demeaning?

It amazes me how *some* women can be selfish, by expecting the man to do all of these things, but find it "demeaning" for the man to be THE MAN of the relationship (i.e., lead the household). Some women don't even want to take the last name of a man after marriage these days, despite all of these sacrifices he makes towards her. Any other proposed "sacrifices" and submissions towards him she has to make doesn't exist -- as that's when she claims it should be "equal".

A friend told me this one, and since I am here... well, so we were talking about dreams and he tells me that he dreamt that he had a girl tied to a chair and was killing her, it was really gore, but it kind of made this person happy? I mean, the actual killing (in the dream) made him happy. He said it was nobody he knew. Is this guy sick? He was kind of proving to me that dreams do not mean anything, but I think they do.

This is a reoccurring Dream I have had since I turned 19 and has been on my Mind a lot since my 23rd birthday. I am writing it out to see what anyone may think of its meaning and all that other fun stuff what better looking into a mans psyche then for him to tell you about his dream.
I am walking down a road. I am approaching a crossroad. The sun is directly overhead. As I stop at the crossroad I hear a great rumbling from the West. I look to the west and see a black tower rising from the land. I then hear the same sound coming from the east, I turn and look and see another black tower rising from the water this time. Then from the South another Tower arises from the ashes. Finally the tower from the north breaks its way from the Ice and all my paths are blocked. The 4 towers are blocking out the light as I stand in their shadows. I no longer see the road that I once walked it is now gone. In the Center of the 4 towers I see a small glimmer of light that is shinning on a marble slab. I slowly walk towards the slab. I no longer hear anything no sounds of wind nor life of any type I don’t even hear myself breathing anymore pure silence. As I reach the marble slab and step into the small glimmer of light I hear my 1st sounds. I hear something coming up from the ground and I start to see shadows just out of the lights reach start to come towards me. They are people that are all marked with a number 1 to 22 each one is numbered. They all surround me and the marble slab. They reach for me and tear off my clothes and they tie me down to the slab. The one marked 18 comes towards me and tears the number 23 into my chest with her bear hands. All 22 of them back away as my blood starts to flow onto the marble slab. They back just out of the light and vanish into dust. I cry out in pain and then feel the slab under my back break and I feel and hear a rumbling far worse then the ones before. Underneath my slab A Great Pyramid comes up from the ground lifting me high into the air far higher then the other 4 towers. The Great pyramid ends up touching all 4 towers at its base. I have a hard time breathing im up so high and fear I will die of lack of oxygen but as I try to free myself from the cracked slab hand come up from around the slab and pull me into the great Pyramid. I find myself amongst the 22 and no way to escape. They come towards me speaking an unknown tongue….
This is as far as the dream has gotten... The 1st time I had it I woke up after the four towers appeared. 2nd time I had it I made it up to getting marked 23. 3rd time I got up to the great Pyramid coming up from underneath the marble slab. 4th time I was pulled into the Pyramid. And the 5th time is the 1st time I heard the 22 speak as they approached me. Every time I have the dream it starts the same way and just goes a little further each time.

I’m talking about this article:
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/pages/live/articles/news/worldnews.html?in_article_id=460991&in_page_id=1811&in_page_id=1811&expand=true#StartComments
Don’t get me wrong. I’m not against average men going out with the guys sans ladies but when you get a bunch of very powerful men like it describes where they hold power over laws, stock options, wars, upcoming films, etc. THEN I think the rules should be a little more stringent. We would never allow racism at even a low level so why do women still tolerate men in power excluding us? It especially irritates me that they have such affection for a topless model and that posters of women’s bodies are allowed- but nothing about our thoughts.

I think im depressed. I dont care about things anymore. I hate talking to people sometimes. I describe my life as the by product of sadness taking a crap on hopelessness. I have no dreams or passions in life. I hate people who are better than me or have goals in life. My brother (he is 10, Im 17) He's nearly taller than me, better people person than me and has the ability to complete surpass me in every aspect of my life by 14. Im not really smart, athletic, or artistic. I can only do alittle of everything but Im not good at anything. I did sports (wrestling/football) to help find myself but it only reminded me how much I suck. In middle school I was very good at art now Im bad. It like the more I age the worst I get. I fear that Im slowly going into maddness with all this self loathing. I went to therpahy when my mom was in the Twin Towers but I hate it. I makes me feel crazy and in turn even more depressed. The only thing I found Im good at is putting myself down.
