You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid. Tinkety Tonk and down with the Nazis. 
Why does "god" need to choose people to push a message?
Why can't he just show up or send a demonstrably supernatural representative to Earth and say, "Just don't fucking do it!"? Playing Cluedo with my mum while I was at Uni: "You did WHAT? With WHO? WHERE???"

I think an abusive relationship is a lot worse than just getting knocked out in an elevator a few times.

'You can have all the faith you want in spirits, and the afterlife, and heaven and hell, but when it comes to this world, don't be an idiot. Cause you can tell me you put your faith in God to put you through the day, but when it comes time to cross the road, I know you look both ways.' - Dr House “Young earth creationism is essentially the position that all of modern science, 90% of living scientists and 98% of living biologists, all major university biology departments, every major science journal, the American Academy of Sciences, and every major science organization in the world, are all wrong regarding the origins and development of life….but one particular tribe of uneducated, bronze aged, goat herders got it exactly right.” - Chuck Easttom "If my good friend Doctor Gasparri speaks badly of my mother, he can expect to get punched.....You cannot provoke. You cannot insult the faith of others. You cannot make fun of the faith of others. There is a limit." - Pope Francis on freedom of speech (December 1, 2014 at 5:24 pm)Bad Wolf Wrote:(December 1, 2014 at 4:00 pm)Drich Wrote: what's to understand? for a 4 million dollar pay check I would be willing to be knocked out in an elevator a couple times a year myself. I don't care what income a potential partner has. If he tries to lay a hand on me I'd defend myself and then leave. Playing Cluedo with my mum while I was at Uni: "You did WHAT? With WHO? WHERE???" 
And by "defend myself" you mean "cockpunch him until his testicles explode."
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."

So now that we've determined what you are, it's all down to haggling over price, yes? 
I have known a couple of women who remained in abusive marriages because they said they loved their husbands and didn't want to leave. My best guess is that years of being abused in childhood, or seeing a parent abused, prepared them to accept mistreatment. It is sad and very exhausting to be the relative of such a person.
Abuse doesn't start with the first punch. Usually the abuser has spent a long time tearing down the victim's self worth. |
