    Modern Life In Appalachia

    I'd be very curious as to what the "logic" was of doing that ... I'd also be curious if the individual involved understands the premise that "the exception proves the rule" ...

    Not exactly a fatwah, but you should really meet our very own Christian Taliban pastor of the "Execute-The-Homos" Brigade ... Controversial Ariz. Pastor Sparks Anger by Saying 'Gays Should Be Executed' Seems he doesn' much care for women wearing pants either ... Lord only knows what other...

    Science that is "manipulated" (in the manner you mean) ain't really science ... ;)

    LOL ... good luck getting a straight answer on that ... If you get any answer at all, I'd expect that that your respondent will attempt to "booby-trap" the issue with further provisos and qualifications ... That would, of course, likely be the absolutely height of hilarity ... Fact of the...

    Ahhh ... because you say so ? Not quite ... BTW - it seems you are equating subservience with ... total exclusion ... Ain't the same thing ... Undoubtedly true, I'm sure ... in some cases ...

    Modern Life In Appalachia

    It may well be funny to you - but it ain't anywhere near as funny as your ignoring and avoidance of answering the question I posed to you about how many women conducted the Mass when you were attending Catholic church ... At least she answered up - and seemingly in an honest manner. As was...
