I'm pretty open to the fact that my opinion may not be right and I'm always open to creative critisism. No one technically can be right except my HP (higher power) and you even have to take that with a grain of salt since it was written some 2000 years ago.evilbrent said:

This board is interesting because of the variety of opinions. Speaking of............where's Fooser?<EMOJI seq="1f615">

yes it does.
...unless you meant to say "I always think that my opinion is maybe right."
Look. It's ok. You're allowed to disagree - but you don't have to pretend that someone MIGHT be right when they're clearly not. They're allowed to be wrong, mistaken, or just have a differing viewpoint - but on some matters of opinion, surely, you believe that you're right and that people with the opposing opinion are wrong.
It doesn't mean you have to ram it down people's throat, just that you don't have to accept that a proposition is both wrong and false.
Eg, I believe that there's no god. I believe that when someone says there is a god that they're wrong. A statement like that can't be both true and false.
If YOU believe that there IS a god, then surely you think that I'M wrong?? Not just having a different opinion, but plain wrong.
That's ok isn't it?

pi = circumference / diameter... no matter what the bible says (the bible says it's 3)musicmom said:
2 +2 = 4
not sure where you getting at here but thought I would leave this web site that tells why "some" try to say the bible says pi=3evilbrent said:

aside from the fact that the bible is a terrible source of factual evidence, you're aware that an appeal to authority is a logical fallacy right? you should put very little weight on the opinions of experts, and very much weight on the evidence and arguments they present.musicmom said:I believe a wise man speaks because he has something to say and a fool speaks because they HAVE to say something.

Mostly I dislike AIG because of their dangerous and authoritative SEEMING deliberate misunderstandings and misrepresentations of the fundamentals of evolution and the scientific process.
The believe that a hypothesis (genesis) is the same thing as proof of the hypothesis.

I don't think there's nothing wrong in taking a bath with your kids, I have a daughter, an she showers with me or daddy everyday, I think nudity must be an open subject in my home, I don't want to create my little girl taboos, there's nothing embarrasing in nudity... good day!!!
Hi... new here! I am the mother of 3, one girl - age 9; and two boys - 7 and 4. I typically do not take showers or baths with my children because I like to sit and relax in my bath... of course, that actually happening is slim to none, BUT... the point here is that you aren't violating the child by taking a shower with him/her. Seeing a parent naked is no where in the same league as seeing a non-parent naked. If/when the child becomes curious and/or starts asking questions, I don't think it should matter if you are clothed or standing there naked to provide an answer to that child. He/she is curious and they need an answer from the parent. One should be grateful that the child is comfortable enough to ask and as long as they are being satisfied with an answer, that comfort will carry on with them even through adulthood. As uncomfortable as I was when my daughter started asking me about why my body was different than hers and I promise you that I was taken aback and put in a very awkward position, but I realized that I would rather feel awkward than feel like my own child cannot talk to me about anything and everything. I don't try to "hide" when I'm getting in or out of the shower, but I do ask my children to leave the room so that I may get dressed or undressed. I'm merely trying to show them that being naked is in fact a "private" matter, not a shameful one. I'm a single mother and having all that privacy isn't always an option, but there are still standards to be taught here.
