Well. considering my ex is about to become his Fourth wife, I'm sure he would have quite a few tales to tell. I'm afraid the only thing we'll ever trade are punches, and that has to do with my five year old son.
Back in the fifties it was considered by most that the Chinese were really awful because they allowed abortions and the Soviets were really awful because they put their children into "nurseries." What direction are we going?
You don't pay a hooker for sex; you pay her to go away without a fuss afterwards.

Yes, and lots of sane people don't get married. The existence of the concept of marriage or the fact that it has been a popular tradition in our culture doesn't make it a good choice ipso facto.
Unrelated to that, I came up with a good summary of my marriage philosophy with one of my close (female) friends many years ago. A woman that is good enough for me to marry is a woman that I won't need to marry.
This doesn't mean that I'm opposed to marriage. What it means is that I eye with suspicion any woman who considers marriage as the goal of a relationship, as that strongly suggests fundamentally broken priorities on its face. A lot of guys have not thought about it this way, but they should. Marriage should be a quaint and pointless ritual that you engage in for the heck of it when you have a great relationship, it shouldn't be something that you actively are striving for. Marriage has no intrinsic value, and absent a good relationship, becomes a liability. Too many people get married to "prove" how good their relationship is, when a good relationship should be self-evident with or without marriage.

If there were anything like a reasonable balance in these numbers, there would be far fewer divorces. If people thought they could lose their kids, "boredom" would not qualify as a reason to get a divorce. Neither would "I need to find out who I really am." Add the risk of heart-rending loss to these deliberations -- instead of the near-certainty of winning a free house -- and our fine feathered divorce attorneys would have a lot less to do. People would re-discover what human beings had known for thousands of years: that bad times come and bad times go and this is how life unfolds. You don't need to consult an attorney every time you feel bored. End the Free House Lotto and the divorce rate will take care of itself. Make it so you can't just win; you can lose, too. People gamble less often when loss is a possibility. |
Conspirator's Hierarchy : The Committee of 300 by Dr. John Coleman
Some highlights of the book: Nation states could either accept Club of Rome domination or else survive by the law of the jungle and fight to survive.These two links show how it was done in the music and drug scene:The Committee of 300 commissioned Cyrus Vance to write a paper on this subject of how best to bring about such genocide. The paper was produced under the title the "Global 2000 Report" and was accepted and approved for action by President Carter, for and on behalf of the U.S. Government, and accepted by Edwin Muskie, then Secretary of State.
Under the terms of the Global 2000 Report, the population of the United States is to be reduced by 100 million by the year 2050.

(10)To weaken the moral fiber of the nation and to demoralize workers in the labor class by creating mass unemployment. As jobs dwindle due to the post industrial zero growth policies introduced by the Club of Rome, demoralized and discouraged workers will resort to alcohol and drugs. The youth of the land will be encouraged by means of rock music and drugs to rebel against the status quo, thus undermining and eventually destroying the family unit. In this regard The Committee of 300 commissioned Tavistock Institute to prepare a blueprint as to how this could be achieved. Tavistock directed Stanford Research to undertake the work under the direction of Professor Willis Harmon. This work later became known as "The Aquarian Conspiracy." [See links below.]
...
Marriage shall be outlawed and there shall be no family life as we know it. Children will be removed from their parents at an early-age and brought up by wards as state property. Such an experiment was carried out in East Germany under Erich Honnecker when children were take away from parents considered by the state to be disloyal citizens. Women will he degraded through the continued process of "women's liberation" movements.

I wonder too. It is not a man-woman thing, it is that they are destroying the family with their 'kindness'.
Those are very realistic numbers.
That's one of them thar biological difference thingies. It would never occur to most men that anyone would consider noticing what they wore a form of "attentiveness."
If you had a big enough lie detector, you could probably get 99% of married men to admit that they have lost track of their wives in a grocery store and suddenly realized they they do not know what she has on that day.
We process only enough visual information to determine that that thing moving around over there is not a threat. What it has on, or whether it just got a haircut, is not something we need to know. So we don't.

We can all recount anecdotes. We've all seen the one where yada yada happened. Enough with the one-off examples, OK? We push a million couples through the divorce mill, and 897,000 times the woman ended up with the house and the kids. The next woman contemplating divorce now knows she has an 89.7% chance of ending up with the house and the kids. This drastically lowers the level of dissatisfaction necessary to produce an actual divorce.
