Should not an ungrown adult be given all the rights of a grown adult?

Just because thei're little doesn't mean they shouldn't be able to make decisions about their sexuality and give consent. They should be allowed to marry whoever they want and vote and drive cars. They should be allowed to enter into contrats and adopt children. We need to stop pretending that the Ungrown are somehow less that the Grown.

Do you agree?

We make a judgment to cross the street. We judge
who we are friends with, who we marry, and ourselves!
We elect judges. The word comes from a root which means "see"...
So when people say "dont judge", i say why? Isnt good judgment a virtue?

I will judge you by your words and actions.

God gave hands
to the fisherman
To cast nets
‘or blue water
To bring forth
the bounty
That his arms
left within

God gave eyes
to the wanderer
To tell beauty
from darkness
To seek out
the garden
only his eyes
comprehend

God gave heart
to the poet
So verses
would flow
And tell of
the glory
In his heart
In his soul

And God gave us
each other
So we’d
stand together
Knowing
the future
By his will

What was your reaction to finding out that Santa wasn't real? How old were you? Did it not bother you? Did you in turn question the existence of God? Were you angry at your parents? Please share your story.

Often, the service in new restaurants we visit is awful, and my friend makes her point by insisting she leaves her (very) small change to emphasise the point. Would it be better just to leave nothing?

This guy has won the lottery but because he is on probation the state might have a chance to take it away from him. I think that is wrong, slap him with a probation violation but how can they take away a million dollars just because he bought a lottery ticket? Now if he stole it... well ok, but this kind of stuff makes me crazy.

A God who does evil is no God at all. God has no likes and dislikes; He is above and beyond all traits and characteristics. So, how can He be hating or revengeful? He is love, He is mercy, He is goodness, He is wisdom, He is power. He gives what you ask; so, be careful what you ask. Learn to ask the really beneficial boons.

As Witches and Pagans here in Y!A's R&S section, we have been trying to justify ourselves by telling folks what we do NOT do as witches and Pagans. Isn't it time that we actually started letting the community know what we DO?

I believe that there is hatred directed against us which is based on a lack of knowledge about what we do, who we are and why we do what we do. Lack of knowledge leads to fear of us, Fear of us leads to hatred of us. In the interest of educating the R&S communtiy, I would like to begin a series of questions that will help to educate others about our various Religions, our ways, whens, and whys of what we do.

This first question will introduce to the community the idea that there ARE many different paths, Religions and even sects of our Religions. So, for starters,

What is your tradition and in a short post, can you explain what your tradition is all about? What Gods/Goddesses do you worship, how, when, where and why?

It has been written, that Atheism, derived from people
long ago, whose idea was to practically overindulge,
in sins, and immorality. The Charvaka Faith, as it
is known, came around 600 BC. And they created
this concept, that it was foolish of society to enjoy
pain unspeakable, without pleasure. Is this how the
modern day Atheists live their lives ? Now we all know
the difference between right and wrong. So do you guys,
have a sense of purpose, with your spiritual side, is
what I mean. And do you also, think that immorality
can cause a huge discord, or severe unbalanceness,
in a civilized world ? If so, then I wonder why some of
you choose to overindulge, rather than be moderate,
fair, and balanced. Which is crucial, to the state of mind,
among human beings. Even scientists know that there
are consequences, for immorality. You take on morality
and standards. Best answer wins. *

I have had huge faith for God, but right now I am in a scenario with my grown child where I need to hear God as clear as a bell so I can have that obedient faith Abraham had. Be real here, be human, and help me remember in my "panic mode" how I know exactly what God is saying, I just need a little support to get thru this, but I know what I am about to do will not look wise to earthly folks and counselors, but God will want it and He is asking me, I AM QUITE SURE, but remind me how we know we are on HIS path on an issue thanks :)

"We believe the Bible to be the word of God as far as it is translated correctly;"

When asked if he believed "every word" of the bible, Romney refused to answer. Anderson Cooper saw this and tried to get an answer, but he continued to dodge it. If Romney subscribes to LDS beliefs, which he does claim to do, then the answer should have been simple. What did you think of his answer? Were you aware of the Mormon belief concerning the bible? Does this affect how you feel about Romney?

It's really hard being a White man in America. I mean, you can't say anything without people quickly labeling you as a sexist and/or a racist. Everytime I speak out about Men's rights and racism that White people face, people always look down on me and call me a sexist and/or a racist.

Can't a decent White man freely speak his mind?

I see the abortion question on here all the time, and most associate that with the Christian relationship, and being against it. But are there any other people that believe that abortion is wrong, and it NOT a Christian? I personaly feel that no matter what my faith is, I would feel the same. I'm 21 years old, my girlfriend is 19 years old, and any day now we are going to be proud parents. I wouldn't give up my daughter for anything in the world, including finacial issues, age issues, or relational issues. My mother was also 19 when I was born, and I had a wonderful childhood.
