I agree with Harbal’s point that one cannot assess a book for its age appropriateness without reading it, but I think it is only necessary to read from the beginning until an age inappropriate passage is found. It isn't only a question of age appropriateness, although I do acknowledge that we need ...

however, there is still the need for fairness and equality in law and schools, so as to prevent unfair discrimination. Schools are seriously overrated. Schools merely churn out good employees, if even; who wage slave for company owners who often did not go particularly much to school. The more you ...

It's not the right that's pushing sexually exploitive materials on impressionable children without their parents' permission. Those are groomers, and they're all Leftists. Grim facts. But true.

Or even if it merely continues another generation or more, that would be worthwhile also. Other than t...

Why do you presume that you will never know, unless 'the world' is one way only? It is like you just 'want to' exp...

In what sense are you saying, 'OK', here, exactly? Why are you asking? As always, 'I am curios and interested to learn and know more'. Are you saying, 'ok', in the sense, that what I have said and written here is just my view, you accept and agree with the definition/s of what 'God is' that I have ...
