Hehe. Well, and the reason I ask is because males and females tend to have different motives that drive us. You've probably noticed me harping a lot on action, and that's a very masculine thing to do as far as I can tell.

But just because I am so very action oriented (the way many males tend to be) doesn't mean your observations don't hold just as much truth. It's just that they may hold *more* truth for women than they do men. Which is a very interesting thing to think about.

As a Catholic, it’s strange to see other Catholics be back and forth with what they believe and issues

Like abortion and such

It's been a sad thing to see them eroding as much as they have been, no doubt.

It seems as if we’ve grown soft, if we spent a fraction of a time you guys read the Bible, there would be less issues

This is a very interesting comment to me. As I am married, I have to “translate” these motives within me to my husband, and I think there is sometimes a disconnect, because he doesn’t see a problem where I might. And I can’t articulate what is the matter. So he is stuck thinking “she isn’t happy” “what am I doing wrong”

I really love the male/female phenomenon

There’s just think dark cloud of ambiguity. I think it’s the smoke of Satan

It’s seems true

Male wants to see where is the proof. And women sort of see... the pattern that leads to the proof I guess. My mind is an enigma

When I went to private school, literally all we learned was God is God and that was it. I barely learned any books or what they were about

So yeah

Yeah, I hear you both.

The male is affirmed by being *worthy*, the female is affirmed by being *beautiful*.

Mr fusion, at least your in the truth now. But yes I think of all the wasted years.

Well my parents were closer than most, so I learned more at a younger age

Well, and the lack of philosophy taught has really undermined kids all over the christian sphere. Like, you can't tell an Atheist "This is what the Bible says" because their beginning assumption is that the bible is a bunch of bunk anyways, so why should they care what it says?

I don’t think most Atheist come to Private Catholic School, but that’s true. Atheists are for public school

Like, we really put ourselves in a bad place when we collectively believed that we didn't need to make a philosophical argument against the secularists taking over the Public Education system.

They don’t come in atheist, but they do leave atheist!

Truth

Well, and it's important to note that kids are going to have a rebellious stage. At some point, they *will* leave the nest, at some point they will stray from the rules taught to them. But the important thing they need to learn is how to watch.

If you can teach them to be cognizant and to observe what's happening in their lives, then they will learn. They will see "Ok, when I act in such a way, things really start going off the rails pretty fast."

And not all rebellion is bad, most of it comes from unexplored philosophical questions that teenagers tend to have. And you can't just hand them the answer, they need to experience the answers for themselves.

The Gospel is truly Revolutionary.

Mm yes. When they are little though, it would be wise to give them a fertile life lived with God and what that looks like. Parents should be an example. And that is also not happening for kids being thrown into private school. The parents think that means they are off the hook.

Btw, supertones, I was joking. I hope you understand.

I was making a joke on the word "Revolutionary" being usurped by communists.

Yeah I get it

But the question is what is someone rebelling against, and what is the foundation of what they believe.

as a christian we should be rebelling against the ways of this world, not violently though.

with a foundation of the Gospel

That's just my thoughts.

Well, personal accountability is no stranger to the discussion either, I might add. Like, you can have a few months of partying and being stupid, and if you're not done learning your lesson after that, then you're either oblivious as to what's happening in your life, or you've chosen that biblical teachings just aren't for you.

Because that kind of behavior does start having an effect on your morals and in consequence the effect on your morals tends to have an effect on your life.

fascinating and wonderful story

I feel like males want respect and female want love. From an emotional standpoint

Seems accurate

Yeah. Train up a child in the way he should go. And when he is old he will not depart from it. Proverbs

Yup.

This is true, people will often go back to what they learned very early in life, whether they intend to or not.
