No, dear, I didn't raise a Boomer; I'm not that old. You don't know much about anything ... let alone the names given to the various age cohorts, of 20th century America. You so enjoy this " blame game ", that you can't see the forest for the trees and haven't a scintilla of an idea, about who did what or when anything happened.My little age grouping, wasn't " responsible for any of the things you ranted about. Neither, kiddo, was that generation " respoinsible " for homosexuals coming out of the closet. How old are YOUR parents, BTW ? Boomers, are they ? Older ? And they are " responsible " for none of the " bad " things, that have happened during their lifetime ? Hmmmmmmmm ... perhaps you should think, instead of childishly, and emotionaly, venting your sick spleen all over the place.
Intermarriage ... where did I talk about inter racial marriage ? Oh and FWIW, prior to 1967, it wasn't a rarity, for an American of Greek, Albanian, Turkish, and whatever other ethnics, you so dispise, to marry someone who was of German , etc. ethnicity.
Again, " DO WHAT THOU WILT ", which is the first part (" AND HARM YE NONE " being the second and final part of that sentence, of the Wiccan Reed ! ) doesn't translate into the abragation of parental control in child rearing and has nothing, whatsoever, with me, my way of bringing up children, and exists, as such, only in your tiny, blinkered, uneducated, bogotted mind. You are some peculiar piece of work, kiddo. LOL
Actually, if you'd care to go back to the dawn of time ( your favorite spot ) , people didn't have any problems concerniong marrying vastly different peoples, from themselves. The Ancient Hebrews, even , married outside of their own little community, IF the other person would convert. Heck, Solomon even took wives and concubines, who didn't convert and set up pagan temples for them. No, this didn't sit well with GOD; nevertheless, it went on.
Ancient Romans had bastards with and even married women, from conquered lands.
The Ptolomeic Pharohs, were THE only ones, who married their own sisters / Aunts , in order to perpetuate and keep power in the hands of that nonEgyptian family.
I know what Alexander the Great looked like, according to various statuary / painting / mosaics of him. But, buy a damned clue ... Greek statuary is an idealized version of people. You seem to think that ALL ancient Grreks looked like statues. Haven't you ever seen the vessle paintings ? Get thee to a book and / or a musem, and f-a-s-t ! I guess you think that Socrates looked like the millenia later painted pictures of him, done by European artists . Sheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeesh !
As a matter of fact, it is ONLY in England , where the stereitypical Jew has red hair and that has been dying out, for a century. Hitler's Germany ( which I'm certain would have suited you quite well )didn't use the red hair; Jews were always represented as having black / dark hair there , which was patently ridiculous, since quite a large number of German, Austrian, Hungarian, and Polish Jews had blonde or red hair , in those countries. I brought this red haired Jew thing up, because you claimed that NORTHERN Europeans were the sole poseeors of blonde / red hair and that the farther away, one got from the Atlantic Ocean ( a ridiculous claim ! ), the less blonde / red haired people there are. If you're talking about India and China and Japan ( though you either don't know about or have forgotten about the Ainu ), then, that statement holds some validity. But, you weren't, you were just ranting ; raving on erroniously, about things you know almost nothing about.
I didn't say that you physically beat your poor children. You do much worse than that ; you're attempting to raise them to be clones of yourself. I feel very sorry for those kids. Poor babies, they have a souless, bigotted, blinkered , ill educated, benighted, little boy for a father, who is so insecure and predjudiced, that he has to claim that only he and his kind, are okay. You aren't " okay " and you're NO Conservative either. Frankly, you don't belong here. Go find a skinhead forum and post there, dear; you'll fit right in.
It would be more interesting talking to you if you would act like less of a know-it-all name-caller. Of course, when you have nothing to say but need to make an appearance of it, ad hominem always fills the time and gives the appearance of thought. Of course, the Greeks noted this was the weakest of all forms of argument, as opposed to, say, using reason and facts. You ought to read over our posts and note the bitter invective in yours.
Do I have this right - the Greeks idealized Alexander and his cohorts by giving him red-blonde hair when he really had black hair? Is that what you are saying when you claim the Alexander Sarcophagus was "idealized"?
My red/blonde hair comment was about genetic incidence. It seems perfectly obvious to me that there is a sincline between Norway and Ireland and Iceland and Sri Lanka or Swaziland or Jakarta as far as the natural incidence of red and blonde hair, and the incidence has declined over time, considering the people like Mongol leader Genghis Khan had such hair color, as did the ancient Indians and Tocharians and many more of the Jews in the past. Why are you find what I am trying to say here so hard to understand?
The stereotype of the Jewish woman with red hair is still around. Just watch for it in the popular press. I'm sure you'll see a mention within one year.
Boomers were only in their pre-teens, teens and at most 22 when Stonewall and all the rest of that went down and was accepted by the 30-60 year olds then who were running the show as "okay". Ditto for birth control, abortion-on-demand, letting our cities be burnt down and hollowed out and the rest of my list. And yes, those of us youngsters out here who disagree with these things do hold the people from the generation holding the reins of power in our government, corporations, and institutions responsible for despoiling traditional society. And that includes those who passively accepted it and have since tried to benefit and profit from it.
I'm sorry its been so vexing to discuss something with someone who disagrees with you. You can always quit anytime.
