    "to train up a child"

    So I know there was a discussion, maybe a couple of years ago, on the forum about disciplining children, but this one is a bit different from the previous post. Something was brought to my attention recently. Hearing about what has been happening to children because of this book is so horrifying...

    Halloween!

    I know that not everyone celebrates Halloween. When I was a kid, actually, we weren't allowed to participate in Halloween either. But now that I've got a family of my own, I love all things Halloween! I'm just curious what you guys do for your Halloween (or if you're not a Halloween-er;), your...

    Childhood favorites

    I was having a discussion with my sister about tv shows that are popular today, mostly kid shows. We were talking about how ironic it was that our parents used to complain about the things that we watched and listened to when we were kids and now we find ourselves mirroring our parents'...

    Marie calloway's first book, "what purpose did i serve in your life?"

    This controversial story is causing a pretty big stir. She's been praised by some for writing this book and threatened by others! People aren't as innocent as they once were. Kids are having sex at a much earlier age. There's a lot of experimentation with sex going on and porn is readily...

    What do you all think of the idea that there is possibly another star out there in the universe gearing to throw asteroids at our planet and wipe us all out?

    Asuras: gods of chaos

    I came across the myth of the Asuras very recently. The Asuras were the Hindu gods of Chaos. Apparently they were more behind-the-scenes immortals who focused more on power than humanity. They affected humans in terms of our emotions (pleasure, violence, ecstasy). They also oversaw karmic...

    It's the end of the world as we know it...and i feel fine;)

    I don't get much chance to watch television so last night was my first time seeing this preview. Reality television is already on my X-list, what with shows like SisterWives, Toddlers in Tiaras, Mobwives, etc., but I feel like these take the cake. I know that there are people who really do fear...

    Vampires today

    I was watching the trailor for Underworld Awakening (I've got the first three, but don't quite know how I feel about this one) when I started thinking about The Breed and the similarities between the two. It made me think... what would happen today if vampires decided to "come out of the...

    Do you believe in fate?

    Do you believe in fate? It seems to me that a man who received bad news from an oracle would always attempt to change their fate, but it always came to pass. They could decide to take different turns on the road, walk or drive, but they all pretty much went to the same destination. If a father...

    Third reich

    Today on the History Channel I was watching Third Reich: The Rise on the History channel about Hitler's rise to power and how he overtook Germany. It is a very interesting and informative documentary, a lot of information I didn't know or had forgotten. What is amazing to me is how Adolf Hitler...

    Has anyone heard the recent news about how some foods can cause children and some adults to have overactive behavior? My sister recently sent me information about how many foods contain red dye in them and apparently red dye can cause hyperactivity in children and some adults. I'm the type that...

    Seasons

    Our local park is surrounded by trees. I took my kids today and it seemed like the ground was covered in a blanket of red, orange, brown, and yellow leaves. There were so many leaves that the basketball court had to be swept before anyone could play! It was so beautiful that it reminded my how...
