Question 4 about unprotected sex, is flawed. What about sex between married couples?

Posted: 4/5/2006 4:52:12 PM EDT

[#8]

Sex between married couples (man and wife, exclusively) is protected by the marriage covenant and their love for each other.

Answer Yes or No to the following.

1. Do you pay all of your own bills? What if you're married?
2. Do you live entirely within your means without financial help from parents? This is called "Growing up" not necessarily being a man.

4. Do you think unprotected sex is wrong? How else would you have a baby? You freak.
5. Do you think all of the unborn have a right to life? They're unborn. There is no life yet.
6. Do you think personal responsibility is essential for all adults? Of course.
7. Would you be willing to lay down your life for your family and friends? Depends for what.
8. Do you believe that death is preferable to dishonor? Are you Japanese?

10. Do you believe that you are in control of all of your choices? For the most part.

If you answer No to any of these, you fail.

Answer Yes or No to the following.

1. Do you pay all of your own bills?

Yes.

2. Do you live entirely within your means without financial help from parents?

Yes. In fact my parents borrow money from me!

3. Do you think people who drive under the influence of alcohol or drugs should go to jail on the first offense?

Yes

4. Do you think unprotected sex is wrong?

Wrong? No. Stupid? Yes.

5. Do you think all of the unborn have a right to life?

Yes

6. Do you think personal responsibility is essential for all adults?

Yes

7. Would you be willing to lay down your life for your family and friends?

Yes.

8. Do you believe that death is preferable to dishonor?

Define dishonor. Do I believe that death is preferable to allowing someone to get away with calling you a name? No. Do I believe that death is preferable to allowing your wife to cheat on you? No. Do I believe that death is preferable to standing idly by while the weak are victimized? Yes. Do I believe that death is preferable to being subjegated and oppressed? Absolutely.

9. Do you believe that without self control there is no character in a man?

It depends. I know some people who show no self control in some personal areas but are stand up guys in other areas. I also know some very well disciplined snakes in the grass.

10. Do you believe that you are in control of all of your choices?

Obviously, they are YOUR choices.

If you answer No to any of these, you fail.

I dismiss your assessment as being poorly thought out. You may feel that being a hardnosed judgemental jackass makes you real man. I believe that conviction of character must be tempered with compassion and common sense.

3. Do you think people who drive under the influence of alcohol or drugs should go to jail on the first offense? depends what you mean by "under the influence". i don't think breathylizers should be used at all, it should all depend on videotaped FST's. i don't care if you blow a .25, as long as you can pass a (rigorous) FST, you're good to go as far as i'm concerned.
4. Do you think unprotected sex is wrong? not in monagamous relationships
5. Do you think all of the unborn have a right to life? only after 10 weeks, which is when higher brain activity begins to occur. abortion before that point is fine with me.
6. Do you think personal responsibility is essential for all adults?sure
7. Would you be willing to lay down your life for your family and friends? sure
8. Do you believe that death is preferable to dishonor? depends what your definition of "dishonor" is.
9. Do you believe that without self control there is no character in a man? correct.
10. Do you believe that you are in control of all of your choices? i'm not going to answer this question, it's too religiously loaded.

You can only dishonor yourself.

Now, run off and you your homework. Middle School awaits you in the morning. Leave discussions of adulthood to the adults. Someday you'll understand. If you don't believe me, run upstairs and ask your mommy.

I've got one to add:

Do you try not to judge others by a narrow set of subjective preconceptions?

Because calling others irresponsible or childish simply because they may do or think differently than you is a very succinct example of mental and emotional immaturity.
