I think positive discrimination of any sort is a very poor idea. As far as I can tell, it has been used extensively to discriminate against real Americans in favour of minorities some of whom have more than one hat which they don selectively depending on the context.

There is an assumption here that the reason for this disparity is equitable as between different racial groups but is

This was an excellent interview and I was happily surprised to hear about the way your raised your own children on raw milk and good food! Thank you for the informative discussion!

Phyllis, I'm wondering if we would agree on a criticism of this judge's action while in charge of making a custody decision, presumably for the wellbeing of these children.

Now, if the judge had understood her own concern about the father as perhaps wanting to hear more evidence that he possessed the skills to connect with and meet the needs of his children, that would have

What I hear Phyllis saying in this article is her deep need for children's learning and some clarity about why schools are teaching empathy when she believes we have strong issues not being taught what she would like to see taught. I also will guess she is looking for clarity about what changed? Why are we moving away from memorization, rewards for correct answers, etc. At the heart of

It is a heart breaking feeling when we discover that our kids are diagnosed with ADHD. This could become a hindrance but if dealt with properly it can become an advantage.

jury nullification may seem on the surface like a patriotic out in some cases. Certainly there are good historical example of Jury Nullification working well.

There are also thousands of cases where it failed disgracefully and criminally.

There were many trials held in the South with all white juries in which a white man was charged with all types of crimes and the

May I suggest a further resource to learn more about empathy and compassion.
The Center for Building a Culture of Empathy
The Culture of Empathy website is the largest internet portal for resources and information about the values of empathy and compassion. It contains articles, conferences, definitions, experts, history, interviews, videos, science and much more about empathy and

after I graduated nursing school and spent a semester in a bachelors Dairy Science program moved home I bought a Jersey cow. it's been almost a year. I now have a jersey cow, heifer, and bull. I am slowly growing a herd. It is illegal to sell rawmilk in Virginia, and I don't like cowshares. I have been trying to enlighten my republican committee and politicians with no avail. THANK YOU

Marriage licenses are issued by the state, not the church. No religion is necessary for a marriage to be legal, valid or recognized.

We are evolving and this is a natural consequence.
The average life expectancy has lengthened, and this is another reason why people get married later. Women are proving better than men in the world of work, so it is right that they take their space, of course, to the detriment of family care.
Everything starts from the west and as a wave propagates eastward. So nothing new.

Marriage will continue to die as long as this country continues to give one gender massive privilege in divorce courts, family courts, child custody, and domestic violence legislation.

The wise choice for men in 21st century America is to stay single, with or without financial bribery.

Separation of church and state is a bedrock principle of our Constitution much like the principles of separation of powers and checks and balances. In the Constitution, the founders did not simply say in so many words that there should be separation of powers and checks and balances; rather, they actually separated the powers of government among three branches and established checks and balances.

2012-02-16T19:53:37.690-06:00

This is extremely frightening. We need to be vigilant as we hear of what is happening. The problem is that the voters will not have a choice. We need to continue bringing this to our representatives as a really bad idea and the tipping point for removing ourselves from the UN!

Bravo!!Wonderful choice.

May God protect our Country from tyranny and oppression form self-proclaimed dictators and elitists in the political arena. May the Lady of America guide our Country back to the principles that gave us the God-given freedoms that have been won by the blood of heroes in wars and international challenges.

Thanks for sharing these ideas and posts. On reflection I know that since I have had kids (now five and three) I have been reluctant to take them into protests, occupations or demonstrations that I would attend otherwise for fear of their presence not being recognised or respected by both the organisers/participants of the event and the state enforcement body.

My God, Americans are insane for taking this crap from these fifth columnist judges. California is a satellite of Mexico's. You might as well call it a Mexican protectorate, since that is obviously who the politicians in Sacramento,(the outpost of these traitors),are serving--Mexico.

2011-12-09T14:28:42.315-06:00

I have no problem with state or local governments offering tax benefits to married couples. It may even be in their interest to do so. However, the federal government should be NEUTRAL with regard to the matter of religion and marriage is, first and foremost, a religious institution.

I speak this as a believer in the Lord Jesus Christ and confident that it is in our own best interest.

It is clear that Nucear Power is not a Christian alternative, as such sin is a transression to God and his Natural Law/Order.
