I agree with Brad! wow there's a first. There's also repression. Personally I'm not sure whether all homosexual people would perceive it as a choice. But then i'm pretty straight ...

Bob, there's not upward mobility that's moving with the norm, I repeat my point. People's narrow mindedness shows when this becomes an argument about socialism vs capatilism. People's argument that ...

Chevy, Erm? What makes you think it's a sin... lets look at the nine sins lust --> erm not that one Greed-->again nope Envy --> hmm well no? Gluttony --> ...

I think you're right dreaming_mouse how can you put an age on it when we are all such individuals. Sure some people in their teenage years get confused about homosexuality/hetrosexuality/bisexuality ...

Well she said upward mobility had become about being in the right social demographic, being in the right social demographic and moving with them is not upward mobility. If this ...

I don't think there would be a lot more murders if there was no punishment (I think there should be), but I think what stops many people commiting murders is ...
