To: ROLF of the HILL COUNTRY; brytlea; frogjerk
You (or your professors) are confusing the NUCLEAR family's fairly recent appearance with all family (marriage/blood-related) forms.
You need to pay more attention to what was actually said instead of to what you think was said.
Brytlea and FrogJerk: This guy is spouting pure BS as taught by many in the academic world today. His cited reference The Origins of War in Child Abuse and The Emotional Life of Nations should be a big hint as to the inanity of his argument! This cr@p was starting to be taught when I was in school (I didn't fall asleep in my classes, LOL!), but most of us had taken other courses (such as ancient history) that we could effectively challenge these anti-western bozo professors.
Up there in the hill country, you must not get much practice reading or you wouldn't have missed so much of what I said in so many instances. I think what you've provided us in your response is a pretty good example of reactive reading in which the "reader," in this case yourself, encounters a few words and phrases which stimulate some sort of reaction, perhaps a memory of something else read or heard or experienced, and then responds to the reaction as though that is what had been written. Try reading carefully this time, paying attention to what is actually written, not to how you react to what is, to you, buzz-words.

Actually, I have to say your prose is not exactly reader friendly. Yeah, you can accuse us all of not being very good readers, but frankly, you are a bit wordy.
