  • Sorry about the small spelling era in the secondary title, request correction. Iphone spellchecker.

    There's been enough problems and none of us should be paying our taxes to those who don't deserve it. Adultery needs to be made illegal or penalised.

    This has caused so much trouble for the wronged spouse. Resulting in many single parents too in this generation. It's time we toughen up on adultery/cheating.

    Make it that the spouse who cheats receives none of the benefits and give more to the wronged spouse who is more deserving.

    This could potentially lower tax if only the wronged spouse gets the benefits and the money would stop going to the undeserving adulterers/cheaters.

  • That's exactly how it was before  "no fault divorce" came in

  • Yes! and outlaw divorce.
    If anyone says that true and natural water is not necessary for baptism and thus twists into some metaphor the words of our Lord Jesus Christ" Unless a man be born again of water and the Holy Spirit" (Jn 3:5) let him be anathema.

  • Adulterers are one of the burdens on tax payers right now. Them getting privileges is like getting rewarded for doing it.

  • Anthony Esolen is always worth reading. He hits nails on heads. And he comes at his targets from unexpected angles, so that the point is pounded home almost before the reader can see where it’s going.

    A professional football star is charged with subjecting his child to pitiless physical discipline. The offense is real Esolen acknowledges, and deserves condemnation. Yet the level of public outrage is odd. We rightly condemn a father who is cruel to his children. But we ignore the much more common phenomenon: the father who deserts his children.

    If the football star had walked out on the child, and the child’s mother, he would not be the focus of public obloquy. A thrashing leaves welts, Esolen remarks, but they will heal. “Abandonment opens a wound that never heals, and it is a wound not upon the skin of the legs, but in the heart.”

    Esolen quotes from The Screwtape Letters, in which the veteran demon explains to his nephew:

    We direct the cry of each generation against those vices of which it is in least danger and fix its approval on the virtue nearest to that vice which we are trying to make endemic.
