I love being lectured (in a condescending tone) by someone younger than me

42 days ago by The Roz

Lectures typically aren't very enjoyable. Rarely, when I ask another what they most enjoy doing for fun, do I hear them say, "Being lectured, of course!" Once in a while, say in the classroom, they can be interesting. But, lectured by a parent? Coach? Etc.? Not so much. Just a couple days ago, I was ...

God’s Extreme Consideration for Humanity

45 days ago by marshmk

He did not shun; he chose. He did not shun the virgin’s womb; he chose a mother. He did not shun the human body; he chose flesh and blood. He did not shun the angel’s name; he chose a destiny. He did not shun the circumciser’s knife; he chose purity. He did not shun God’s law; he chose obedience. He ...

52 days ago by Engineer Sighted

I read an interesting article on the New York Times blog the other day. It's a philosophy professor at Amherst, Louise Antony, trying to defend her point of view of moralistic atheism. The basic premise is that she considers there to be a natural right and wrong in nature independent from God, wheth ...

The Stable Cave

64 days ago by Sherrie Mills Johnson

We all know that Jesus was born in a stable, but the facts about that stable, about how they got there and what it is, are not so well understood. The word the King James translators choose to translate as inn, kataluma, is the same word that Mark and Luke later use for the Upper Room in which the L ...

Negotiation Body Language Secret # 457: A Contempt Amplifier

74 days ago by Body Language Success

Salman Rushdie is displaying classic contempt in this photo with this asymmetrical "pseudo-smile" - note how the left corner of his mouth is elevated. The left nasal-labial furrow (the crease which runs from the side of the lower nose past the sides of the mouth) is deeply indented along with the co ...

Dansplainers I have met

93 days ago by Kelly Draper

What I find the most interesting thing about living in another country is working out if something is a cultural difference or just the actions of a minority (or individual). For example, there is a website which sends up hateful churches in the USA. It is pretty funny and very well researched. They ...

Vegetarians: Don’t Be Bad Guests

96 days ago by Knigel

Written by Knigel Holmes Eat what the locals eat. Eat the dog, pig, and cow. Eat the whale, seal, and urchin. Eat the scorpion, cockroach and larvae. Shun cultural arrogance, and instead of confining freedom to strict vegetarianism or religious food restrictions, open up to other cultures. Religion ...

Mutual Respect

133 days ago by superfluousity

In psychiatric/psychologic treatment settings, it is inevitable to be asked several times, if not more, about one’s background history and current circumstances. I abhorred this part of treatment because there’d be such varied responses, it gets very upsetting and unnerving. But different people com ...
