To quote from here: Early childbirth is especially dangerous for adolescents and their infants. Compared to women between the ages of 20-35, pregnant women under 20 are at a greater risk for death and disease including bleeding during pregnancy, toxemia, hemorrhage, prolonged and difficult labor, severe anemia, and disability. Life-long social and economic disadvantages may […]
An American Buddhist nun called Perma Chödrön wrote a famous self-help book called When Things Fall Apart, she later expounded on the message of the first book with a follow up, subtitled A Guide to Fearlessness. The books give advice to dealing with personal crises such as the loss of a loved one, or dealing […]
In typical fashion, ‘David’ has responded to posts by Bruce and I, and demonstrated (yet again) that he will not conduct himself in a reasonable, honest manner. We have 2 main detractors that like reading our website. They can’t seem to get enough of our content. When we say something they do not like, their […]
In previous posts, I’d taken ‘David’ Thiessen to task for his horrendous takes on child-rape and abortion. Today, I do so again, via both his latest post on the subject, and via a Christian Post article that ‘David’ refers to. People may not have liked our position on the 10-year-old girl being raped, but there […]
It’s Muse time! Let’s kick off with a scary story… Back to School Inspired by discussion of new school uniforms for my daughter, I had a dream about being back at school, getting ready in the morning, and about having, *gulp*, PE lessons. I was scrambling to find my PE uniform (particularly the shorts), and […]
It is not without irony that ‘David’ has come after my recent post, Rights, God and the Godless. As his reply wears on, he speaks of subjects that he clearly knows very little about. Is there any point in responding? To ‘David’, details like facts, evidence and so forth, are irrelevant. The truth, as he […]
Every so often, I’ll trawl WordPress topics for posts that might be interesting. These posts might be ones I agree with, or ones I feel a desire to challenge. I have been fortunate to come across a number of strong voices in the fields of feminism, LGBT rights, and racial equality. I have also stumbled […]
The last couple of posts from ‘David’ Thiessen of Theology Archaeology have spun off into character assassinations of both myself, and Bruce Gerencser. I’ve ignored a couple of his more recent displays of hypocrisy, but his latest post is grounds for a few corrections. We apologize for our article title yesterday. However, we did find […]
I would like to regard myself as being fairly placid (though Mario Kart and Football Manager can still put this notion to the test). However, sometimes, when people who know nothing of fatherhood assert to judge my parenting skills… Well, prepare for a response. A preacher or a teacher does not have to be married […]
We’re very much into summer, and there’s a few things to look forward to, but what has been going on these past two weeks?! Forgive the, ah, grim nature of this opening bit, but invariably, we get to politics, and some decidedly Not Suitable For Work stuff (in more ways than one!) Johnson Blows UK […]
Breached the 70K mark on my wip! Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!
This is just sheer absolute, exquisite beauty.
I have eaten too much pizza.
I don't think it's up to you to decide what's best for women, nor whether or not men can find them attractive...
In recent days I have been having a ‘back and forth’ with Citizen Tom on the subject of education. Tom believes that education should be in private hands, which he believes would therefore be subject to the whim and will of parents. He does not like what state education teaches, and considers it to immoral. […]
