Gangsta Wiggles

So you have been trusting The Wiggles to provide harmless entertainment to your child. Well I would caution you against this morals of this group. They have been subverting your children for years and now are becoming more blatant and "hardcore." They are now advocating violence, drugs and getting "busy in a Burger King bathroom"




Iran is next

Looks like we are heading into Iran.
The resignation of Admiral William Fallon as US military commander in the Middle East probably signals a Bush Regime attack on Iran. Fallon said that there would be no US attack on Iran on his watch. As there was no reason for Fallon to resign, it is not farfetched to conclude that Bush has removed an obstacle to war with Iran.

The US is already over stretched both militarily and economically. An attack on Iran is likely to be the straw that breaks the camel’s back.
Of course, this is only to "spread democracy" throughout the world, nothing at all to do with the Iranian oil bourse.

The Divorce Pill

The Elusive Wapiti's post on "The Divorce Pill" got me to thinking.

If it is true that a woman on the pill will be attracted to someone she isn't compatible with (too similar) because she is on the pill, then when she goes off the pill she is no longer attracted to that person, then it would seem to me that a woman who was attracted to a man but later goes on the pill would find herself in the same state. Or, to appropriate a quote from the article "On a subconscious level, her brain is realizing a mistake was made—she married the wrong guy," he says.

Its funny, in a twisted way. The woman who goes on birth control in order to have more sex with her significant other may well find herself less attracted to him, perhaps even turned off. All due to a wonderful little pill that is now in our water supply.

Miscellany

The blog isn't dead, just on life support.

I spent soooo much time online in the past 9 months that I am bored with the web. Plus cabin fever has well and truly set in, and this slightly warmer weather is making it even worse! Its not yet warm enough to do all the things I want to do. The high country is still under snow and ice and will be for some time. As an example, Eleven Mile lake is under 30-36 inches of ice. The trails, which often get little or no sun, aren't safe for hiking with a two year old. But the days are getting longer. It wont be too long before outdoor activities can be done daily. Till then I guess the time change will have to do (I love it happening so early! Makes the day so much nicer)

Men

I heard this song on Friday night and just had to laugh. I hope you all enjoy it as much as I do.
Brad Paisley's I'm Still A Guy


This song from Kelly Pickler goes along with it real well.
Things That Never Cross A Man's Mind

Abortion Post

My previous post was a satire of the whole abortion issue. But I was trying to bring up the absurdity of the arguments made by the pro-choice crowd. The main argument, of course, is that it is a woman's "right" to do with her body as she pleases. This same argument never applies to other things a woman might decide to do with her body, such as prostitution or drugs, no matter how logical the connection is.

A post of at Triton's (IIRC) got me to think on this. The scenario given there is that if a man came aboard your boat after being stranded at sea, you would have an obligation to see him to some point of safety. It need not be where the refugee preferred, you need not go out of your way to drop him off, but you have a moral and legal obligation to take him to safety. Doing otherwise would be, rightly, considered murder.

But I think there is a better analogy and it is as stated in the previous post. My example below is to drag a person against his will (kidnap) to a place where he can be legally killed. Taken against his will and his life terminated against his will. This is precisely what is happening with an abortion.

In the act of sex two intelligent adults are making a conscious decision to participate in an act that is expressly designed to create a child. This is done with knowledge, willfully and intentionally. When that child is then created it is the woman who makes a knowing, willful and intentional decision to end that life. That child, of course, cannot be asked if he approves of such a decision. The question now must be asked, what is the logical decision a child would make? Is it likely that the child would choose death? Is there any other creature that chooses death over life? Yes. They are insects who give their life to mate. I suppose one assumes they know this will happen. Maybe not. They are insects after all. But no mammal chooses death. And humans are mammals so we must assume that the child would also have a natural bias towards saving his life. In fact, there is a video floating around on the net that shows an ultrasound of an abortion of a very young fetus and that child moves away from the abortionists tools. This is evidence that indeed a child does have the bias towards life shared by all mammals.

Therefore, seeing as there was an intentional decision* to bring about a child, the act of abortion is, in fact, murder.

* Of course people will say they didn't "mean" to get pregnant. But there is a very simple solution to the whole accidental pregnancy issue. Don't have sex. It really is that simple.
