Is it re-education if you are having to unlearn the bad first?

So my christmas went okay except for two women losing their minds:My grandmother and my boyfriend's "memaw". My grandmother threw a fit because I went to spend Christmas with the boyfriend, instead of "with the family". Before I left, she kept picking arguements with my mother and egging her on by talking about how she wish she could see "her family".The same family that left her nearly blind, starving, and not very clean.It's upsetting how what me and my mom do just isn't enough, and she's…See More

Hell yes I do. I liken bullying a person unto physically pushing them. A person can only take it so long until they either 1) Hit Back or 2) Snap and begin to hit themselves. What really ticks me off about the response to bullying is that people…

So maybe evolution is the development of the cortex to awareness of its trap. Randomized parts is new understanding, at least from what my string remembers. Used to think you were insane, now just slightly off!

None. It's not even my choice whether or not I respond to this. The energy that moves my fingers across the keyboard has existed for billions of years. I cannot stop it from moving them as it does. Parts of the interactions that resulted…

John, Did not you learn your lesson? Choice is not free. It is dependent. It describes a relationship between entities. Or something along those lines. You might be correct. But you have to live the lie or else you become mush. Then again what…

John Camilli commented on Monica S.'s blog post 'Its friday and I AM NOT IN LOVE'
You are both wrong. Humans do not possess the mythical ability called "choice." Think about it: to "choose" is to introduce or re-direct some impetus required for action, where previously there was none (or to absorb and be…

I believe that if heterosexuality would be studied as intensely homosexuality, humanity would benefit immensely. To study homosexuality exclusively is to set homosexuality as deviant and something that needs to be corrected. I…

Monica, until the evidence is decisive one way or another, we should maintain a bit of scepticism regarding any topic.  In this case, the evidence is, in my assessment, tipping toward the 'homosexuality is somewhat inborn' view.…

Monica S. replied to The Nerd's discussion 'PZ Myers Supports Ableism?'
Heh. Omg that bingo makes me itch. I just read it and it made me cry. I was raised baptist, went to catholic school, and choice charismatic christianity when I hit about age 12. I was taught the same thing, but it went a bit further: even thinking…

I agree with you on it being a life long mission. I made a joke about since I know so much about Charismatic Christianity that I could write a book on it. One thing I can say, you never know how young you are emotionally and socially until you get…

Its friday and I AM NOT IN LOVE

So today in the discussion forum in class, the topic of nature vs nurture came up(I'm a psych major so this was going to happen ANYWAY). Well one of the students, I'll name him Mark Christian, ranted on and on about choice, and then said this gem: "In the continuum I lean more toward Environmental explanations for our behavior. The choice to pursue a change in gender for example, rests on a decision by us to do that, and may come from overly being associated with a female All our life without a…See More

It may be Tuesday, but it feels like Monday

I pushed myself too hard, and now I am paying for it.

My surgical pain is at the same level that it was a week ago. I'm angry at myself for being weak. What makes me even more angry is that it took me spending time with the boyfriend to realize I shouldn't have to DO everything. But oh does it make me feel inadequate.

 

I started classes yesterday and it looks like it is going to be really easy.

 

Also...

Folks, I need you to do me a favor. My best…

So, it has been four months(?) since I've last had to accompany my mother to church. I have responded to my new freedom my sleeping in, writing, or jewelry making. Let's see what is going on with me:

 

-I'm finally learning how to drive. Maybe my mom would put herself in the car with me THIS TIME. 

 

-I'm moving out of the house next year! YES!

 

-I'm Graduating!(yes!) Next Year!(boo!)

 

-I'm starting up my blogs again(oh…

Hello Noir and welcome to this friendly meeting place with freethinkers who recognise that gods are fictions and that religions exist to control vulnerable superstitious people including defenceless children; and how tragic and inexcusable it is that women and minorities have been oppressed these last two thousand years and longer.

Terry Meaden
founder of the busy group "ORIGINS: Universe, Life, Earth, Humans, Religion, Evolution, Darwin..." with its 300 discussion topics.
We invite you to join us and 1750 others.
