(...) alright, let me throw everything out on the table: i am a Christian conservative. i am pro-family (that is marriage between a man and a woman), pro-life (the right for an unborn, helpless child to live), and i adhere to the best of my ability (...)

(...) Did that include beating your hands with a ruler if you wrote with your left hand, Tom? That's what happened to my bf, who is left handed but still writes (very slowly and badly) with his right. Kevin (20 years ago, 23-Sep-04, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Why these news groups were created
 
(...) That's exactly what I mean. Maybe it's not even your parents' fault. I'm willing to give that. Maybe they just didn't know better -- and now you don't. But it's still wrong. And raising kids, teaching them untruth as if it were truth, is (...) (20 years ago, 23-Sep-04, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, FTX)

(...) For .admin.nntp: LUGNET has to abide by certain societal restrictions for the sake of liability. In that sense, John's perfectly right. For .o-t.debate: Screw them!

(...) Look Jason, I can't help it that you're wrong. I can't help it that you grew up in an abusive (if only mildly) environment. And I didn't say you were uneducated -- I said you were educated wrongly. We're not playing a game here. You're talking (...) (20 years ago, 23-Sep-04, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, FTX)

(...) Whichever hand was closer. Or whichever had a mitt on ;-) I catch with either hand equally well. But while "left-handed", I can only throw accurately right-handed.

  Re: Lavender Brick Society
 
(...) They tried, they REALLY tried with me in school. But I'm more stubborn than any teacher I've ever run into, and my left-handedness won out ;-) Then again, I can write semi-legibly with my right hand if given time.
