Chances MAD will let me back in

[_ludwigm]

Zee, has MAD blocked your IP or can you at least still read the board?

They have really weird IP policy.
I have an account there - the same age as here -, with 0 comment. I have NEVER write any, and never will.

My internet provider gives me new IP for every login or connect, dynamic IP, that is. Some times I can read, other times I get error #2000. (approx. in 50-50%)
I don't know the common address of every 256 or 64K group, but there is 3-4-5 which are blocked. I may create a test, with 100 or 1000 connect/disconnect.
Somewhere in Hungary, there are 3-4-5 enemy of the church, according to MAD.

Blocking the read access of the site - moreover using IP range - is paranoia.
I had other words, some of them telestial. The others were worth of outer darkness.

Would you rather that your teenage kids be celibate than guilt-ridden, some to the point of suicide like that Mormon teen in Boise, Idaho, who committed suicide due to guilt over masturbation? I'd much rather my child be sexually active (with condoms being used because I told them about them and how they could get them) than frustrated and guilt-ridden while their egos and self-esteem are being stunted in their development.

Well, back in the day, we Mormons used to have Mormon lays. One could do everything one wanted as long the clothes were on. It was pretty good. Basically it was heavy petting. And it left much up to the imagination.

What is a sexually active child? This could be dangerous for the child also, as they can begin to feel used, especially if it is a girl. And in my part of the world, STD's are rather common among the young population and according to some statistics, one in five american adults may have the herpes virus. Here are some facts:

But sock puppet, I am glad that you want to send your children into this world of sexual activity. No one caught anything from a Mormon lay back in the 70's.

[_why me]

And many of my opinions have changed.

Too bad you weren't more sexually active. I think that getting genital herpes would be a wonderful accomplishment by sleeping around with many women.

I remember that it was in the early 1980's when herpes came on the scene. The Mormons were right. And then in 1981 or 82 the aids virus came on the scene. The Mormons got it right. I was around back then in sexual active New York City. Those Mormon lays were nice and imaginative. And no threat of herpes or aids.

But glad your mind has changed.

It is not religion that makes people responsible.

Liz,

I can view posts. I suppose you are suggesting I read/search the archives? Yeah, maybe so.

Sig line, anyone?

I remember that it was in the early 1980's when herpes came on the scene. The Mormons were right.

Herpes Virus Infections have been prevalent as early as ancient Greek times...Even Shakespeare is thought to have been familiar with recurrent herpes simplex lesions and their transmission. Nonetheless, it was not until 1893 when Vidal recognized that human transmission of Herpes Simplex infection from one individual to another. By the 1940's and 1950's, research abounded on the many diseases caused by HSV.

And then in 1981 or 82 the aids virus came on the scene. The Mormons got it right.

While rare, sporadic case reports of AIDS and sero-archaeological studies have documented human infections with HIV prior to 1970, available data suggest that the current pandemic started in the mid- to late 1970s.

Those Mormon lays were nice and imaginative. And no threat of herpes or aids.

Sig line, anyone? LOL

True story: the only girl I ever have known to have herpes, like serious-what-is-on-your-face herpes, was my girlfriend's TBM best friend. But I trust Why Me on this topic.

Why Me, BCSpace, Droopy, Mr. The Nehor, and William "Gookie Cookie" Schryver have to be some of the most out-to-lunch mo'fo's I have ever seen post on the Intertubes. Ever. The crap that comes out of their mouths...

I think that religion does make people morally responsible when it comes to sexual behavior. Now of course, it depends on the religion but in the Mormon faith it does.

On the other side of the coin, the AIDS virus has also made people more responsible. I remember the crazy 70's in NYC with studio 54 and other sex clubs doing a wonderful business. Many people had no fear. There is no question that with the pornofication of societies, sexual morals would be practically nonexistant in the secular world and there would be one huge orgy going on if the AIDS virus did not show its ugly head.

Well, we can't deny the stats on the herpes virus and other sexually transmitted viruses. They are real and plentiful.

Liz,

I can view posts. I suppose you are suggesting I read/search the archives? Yeah, maybe so.

Well, at least you can read posts there.

They don't hate you as thoroughly as they hate Kevin, Scratch, Harmony, and myself. They not only banned us, but blocked our IP's. LOL

Not that we can't read the board. We can. We just have to tunnel in.

You think? This is an important question. Maybe we should get something more conclusive before taking a stand.

Why would it depend on the religion do you think?

So, here might be the conclusion from your statement:
1. Some religions help kids not get STDs
2. Some religions allow kids to get STDs
3. No religion encourages kids to get STDs

Really?
