Take a look at this gang. A companion piece for the example on the white board.
One also suspects that the mysterious disease known as ADD, Attention Deficit Disorder, may be caused by a deficit of meaningful direction - meaningful, that is, in the sense of coercive. Over that 10-year stint, I could probably identify 50 boys, all suffering from what today would be called ADD. Every one of them was 'cured' when he found that if he didn't do the assigned work, things would become dreadfully unpleasant.
It is certainly odd that a disease that was absolutely unheard of before the schools were feminized has now become chronic. The favoured treatment is to hop up boys into educational acquiescence with Ritalin, a derivative of cocaine. Drugging children is seen as somehow more humane than spanking them.
School is now just a 'girl thing'

I just got this in an email and thought you all would like it:
Thought you might enjoy this interesting prayer given in Kansas at the
opening session of their Senate. It seems prayer still upsets some people.
When Minister Joe Wright was asked to open the new session of the Kansas
Senate, everyone was expecting the usual generalities, but this is what
they heard:
Heavenly Father, we come before you today to ask your forgiveness and to
seek your guidance and direction. We know Your Word says, "Woe to those
who call evil good," but that is exactly what we have done. We have lost
our spiritual equilibrium and reversed our values.
We confess that:
We have ridiculed the absolute truth of Your Word and called it Pluralism.
We have exploited the poor and called it the lottery,
We have rewarded laziness and called it welfare,
We have killed our unborn and called it choice,
We have shot abortionists and called it justifiable,
We have neglected to discipline our children and called it building
self-esteem,
We have abused power and called it politics,
We have coveted our neighbor's possessions and called it ambition,
We have polluted the air with profanity and pornography and called it
freedom of expression,
We have ridiculed the time-honored values of our forefathers and called it
enlightenment.
Search us, Oh, God, and know our hearts today; cleanse us from every sin
and set us free.
Guide and bless these men and women who have been sent to direct us to the
center of Your will and to openly ask these things in the name of Your Son,
the living Savior, Jesus Christ. Amen!"
The response was immediate. A number of legislators walked out during the
prayer in protest.
In 6 short weeks, Central Christian Church, where Rev. Wright is pastor,
logged more than 5,000 phone calls with only 47 of those calls responding
negatively.
The church is now receiving international requests for copies of this
prayer from India, Africa, and Korea.
Commentator Paul Harvey aired this prayer on his radio program,"The Rest of
the Story", and received a larger response to this program than any other
he
has ever aired.
With the Lord's help, may this prayer sweep over our nation and
wholeheartedly become our desire so that we again can be called One Nation
Under God."
If possible, please pass this prayer on to your friends.
Think about this:
If you forward this prayer to everyone on your email list in less than 30
days it would be heard by the world, and that in itself would be a
wonderful thing for humanity.
If you are not ashamed of Lord Jesus....pass it on....
Have A Great Day!
GOD BLESS AMERICA
