Sure. What did you indoctrinate your kids into?



Nothing. They can make their own choices whenever they wish. I give them
all the answers I can and find out the ones I can't. They are very
curious kids and I have always been a pretty curious and scientifically
oriented person. And I know how to say "I don't know." It has been a
learning experience for all of us. And their teachers and all their
friends mothers have always commented on how well behaved they are. I
guess my athiestic morals can't be all that bad.


So you indoctrinate them into the religion of "free thinking", philosophy,
etc. I was just curious.


That is not a religion. Find a dictionary.

BTW, I don't really give a rats ass what grade you give me.

Really? Then why does it bother you so much?



I'm curious as to what makes you think it bothers me.


Because you bothered to reply to it.


I'll give you a B+ on

grammar, but you need to add an apostrophe to rat's.



The mark of the desperately wrong. Pointing out typos.


The mark of the arrogantly wrong.

Oh, I have no illusions.

They belive in faith. I believe in placing my faith in a good aviation
mechanic?

Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of Earth
And danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings;
Sunward I've climbed, and joined the tumbling mirth
Of sun-split clouds, - and done a hundred things
You have not dreamed of - wheeled and soared and swung
High in the sunlit silence. Hov'ring there,
I've chased the shouting wind along, and flung
My eager craft through footless halls of air. . . .

Up, up the long, delirious burning blue
I've topped the wind-swept heights with easy grace
Where never lark, or ever eagle flew -
And, while with silent, lifting mind I've trod
The high untresspassed sanctity of space,
Put out my hand, and touched the face of God.

It's hard to imagine, but this poem is even better when Dwayne O'Brien sings
it.

Stan, this is one of those "I wish I'd have thought of that" moments.
Excellent comeback.

Most democrats I know are HYPOCRITES who espouse public education for everyone
else while they and their descendents enjoy an all expenses paid trip to the
IVY LEAGUE
where they polish their liberal agendas for the "common man".
