The Josh we don't want to hear about

What is a woman, JohnH?

I'm not a biologist.

The fact that you can’t give us a straight answer about something as fundamental as what a woman is underscores the dangers of the kind of progressive ideology that we are hearing about.

I'm a little discombobulated after listening to a discourse about how as a tourist to Japan, one has allegiance to Japan. Needless to say I'm reconsidering some of my vacation plans.

I feel like we are a little quick to blame other things sometimes when the reality is, the individual himself chose to sin.

True. That is why I tried to couch my critique in terms of multiple contributing factors. Certainly free will is the largest contributor.

Still thinking about this... The reason I can't entirely agree with your contentment to look no further than the individual offender is the pattern of abuse and exploitation. The older son abused on multiple occasions as a teen, after marriage made an account in a website devoted to finding sexual partners for married men and was caught by authorities downloading graphic material of such a nature the investigating officer said it was among the worse he had ever seen. The younger abused a nine year old in his mid 20's. This is more than a bad apple.

Perhaps public shaming in church and excommunication would have helped.
