In this dating enviorment where all the beggining comunacation is done with e-mails and the written word I have heard many people say they one of the ways they "weed" out possiable matches is by thier spelling.(or lack of it) As someone that has had dyslexia all his life I can tell you that many of us will never be able to spell. I for instance use the spell check as much as I can but I will still do not know the proper spelling of the word "write" and "right" I know how the concepts are diffrent. It would just be too combersum to look up the deffinetion of al these words every time I wrote an e-mail. Nearly impossable when using a live chat or the a forum like this because of the speed at which these things move.
I am trying to say that judging people on spelling is a big mistake. Here are just some of the people you would have missed out on dating....

Orlando Bloom
Danny Glover
Jay Leno
Keanu Reeves
Ansel Adams
Pablo Picaso
Tommy Hilfiger
Muhammad Ali
Nolan Ryan
Henry Ford
William Hewlett
Alexander Graham Bell
Thomas Edison
Albert Einstein
Cher
John Lennon
Bob Weir
John F Kennedy
Hans Christian Andersen
Agatha Christie
F Scott Fitzgerald

Just to name a few. So please give those of us that can't spell a chance.



(as a little side experiment would anyone that still thinks that they will not date bad spellers put out your reason why you feel that way. Thank you)

Just trying to point out that Franklin was never president so that would mean that the other information in the article was also suspect. I just wasn't sure when each persons words began.
I don't think it helps anyone in this day and age to be putting forth ridiculous ideas like the ones raised in the artical.

He invented the Fire Department, the Library, the Lightning rod, the battery, the basic ideas behind electricity, the farmers almanac, and so on.

first franklin was never president. (besides the other horrendous ideas in this article)

If we see this religion giving a violent reply over and over again then they can't say it is just somebody else. Just a bad seed. The effect of this Christian was to drum a voice for reason out of the military. The tactic is to use violent and threatening "warriors" up front so that a majority of Christians can claim that they are all about love. If this was really true their wouldn't be any stories like this one. Let alone incident after incident. Its time to see this violent and mean spirited belief system for what it really is.

or a flood eat human world

What I don't understand is why is evolution the only scientific thing that gets you going? Why not meterology also.

here in the Bible it says the Ostrich..


39:14 Which leaveth her eggs in the earth, and warmeth them in dust,
39:15 And forgetteth that the foot may crush them, or that the wild beast may break them.
39:16 She is hardened against her young ones, as though they were not her's: her labour is in vain without fear;
39:17 Because God hath deprived her of wisdom, neither hath he imparted to her understanding.

Job 39

Why doesn't someone get on the Zoologists that believe the Ostrich is a great mother that takes care of the Egg and even watches the hatching until it can run with the others.

Who is going to make sure that this direct teaching that is counter to Gods word will be stopped?

Cost Rica does not have an Army and they do just fine. In fact for that part of the world they may be doing the best. They can spend that money on things that mater (like health care)


So a country does not NEED an army to exist.

I wasn't trying to insult you. I was just pointing out ahead of time that you were going to say we are only talking about America.
If you are a Homosexual and you know your History I am sure they do not just feel this threat in America alone. They feel in danger all over the world. The ones that live here are doing their small part to try and make the world a better place for Homosexuals.
They have a much longer and wider history then how they have been treated here.

I think you probably look at things from your small point of view, not looking at all of history or looking to other places in the world, so I do not know if this will have any impact on you.

When Hitler was in control those exact things happened to Homosexuals. They were slaves often worked to death. Watched over by dogs and treated like cattle in every way. It was legal to do all those things to homosexuals.

All the things you mention are called the terrany of the majority. Just because the Majority of people think that slavery is a good idea that does not mean they can in slave people. The minority in that situation has rights that cannot be taken away by any majority.
When I talk about winning I mean that today you and people like you will argue over this and say it is wrong. However the next generation has already bought into equal everything for Homosexuals. There are even Churches that are starting to ordain Gay Ministers. We have woman preachers today that people in the past said was a sin, we know that slavery is wrong even though the Bible was used to back it just 150 yrs ago.
Society changes, the church changes, even the interpretation of the Bible changes. It doesn't take a genius (or Nostradamus's) to see that the future society will accept homosexuality and so will the Church.

Peace in truth

I did have one straw that almost broke it...

I already had questions about the reality of the Bible. Then one Sunday I had read the morning paper and on the front page they talked about this man that had passed away. He was a civic leader. Had been a tireless advocate for the poor and sick. He was virtually everywhere helping people and making our state a better place to live. He was also Gay.
I go to Church and as the preacher starts his sermon he mentions this guy and then says the man is in HELL now because he was Gay. Man was I mad. I felt like standing up in front of those 400 people and giving that man a piece of my mind. Telling him what a disgrace he was to talk that way about someone.

Instead I just stood up. Turned my back on him. Walked out of the Church and did not return.

How can anyone look at the life of the man that did so much for society and then look at the preacher so sure in his righteousness and say that the first man is the sinner and the second man is the saint. In my world the truth is easy to see.

you really think that?!?!


I would have pegged you for someone scared of a Gov't with too much power.

On rereading this I think that is what you are saying OOPS...

I am a huge supporter of gay rights. But this statement really scares me. Everybody should be fighting to get back what these idiots have taken away.



(I don't know if this has been pointed out but a majority of people under the age of 40 think that Gay marriage is fine. Just like the last generation would have never elected a black president, the future generation will not think anything of this issue. The fight is already won)

Nice input. Very cool to think about. They would rather believe in crazy ideas like being held responsible for some guy eating fruit way back when, then to look into the simple truths you point out here.

peace in truth.

no
yes

If there was a merciful God that is how we would know.

I heard this story a long time ago before the Net even. You should probably point out that it isn't yours or that it is a parable or something.

I think you are a reasonable person. I hope you find your way free of that Church.

Peace in Truth.

Well then here is a time after Jesus
Timothy 1

2:12 But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence.
2:13 For Adam was first formed, then Eve.
2:14 And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression.
2:15 Notwithstanding she shall be saved in childbearing,


It really surprises me that you woman would speak up at all. It looks like God makes it clear in the Bible it is not your place.
