Unfortunately Ed, I do not think you are capable of rationale discussion on this topic. You pretty much read and twist words at your whim and the only thing it leads to is a pointless argument. Like I said, and you ignored, I used the phrase "a certain set of teachings" on purpose. That school apparently has decided to take a particular stand on gay lifestyles. No one in this thread has said that gay people can't live moral lives, since clearly the term "moral" is ambiguous. But you chose to say that to be argumentative...

Your reaction to this is EXACTLY the reason why the guideline exists Ed. It is a school that teaches a particular set of moral values. If it is known beforehand that the parents do not subscribe to those teachings - then the parents will be directly undermining the lessons being taught. This pits the school against the parents, which they are taking steps to avoid.

As long as silly analogies like these are made, there really isn't any room for thoughful discussion.

Ed has no point. A group of people got together and formed a school where a certain set of values are to be taught along side their academic curriculum. In order to facilitate their moral teachings, and knowing that parental support is crucial in teaching their kids - they decided that at least one parent cannot be in direct conflict with their teaching. They made a set of rules and despite having a partner for 22 years - these two women decided it didn't apply to them. I assume there were interviews and applications to be filled out. I would be shocked if they didn't know about this policy and it is probably a safe assumption that somewhere they just lied to get in to that school. Yet Ed seeks to disparage the Church for sticking to their guidelines, instead of faulting the women for placing that child in that situation?

So, the fact that the school had set up guidelines for admission - and that the fact that Shay's two mommies decided those guidlelines did not apply to them means that the Church is wrong? When they applied for admission - did they tell bold-faced lies? Did they sign papers knowingly that they were in violation of a simple set of rules? Gotta love the Church for enforcing their admission policies. It's too bad that people think rules are for others...

I've seen more pimples and freckles on a porcelin doll!

I like the fact that they didn't airbrush out any flaws.

I was thinking the same thing...

This picture of these fine young ladies was taken at Manzanita Beach... I'm guessing Lana is #3 cause the 1st one's hair seems too dark, but you can definetly tell they are sisters!

yeah, but he couldn't even get coffee with Lana... TC is a dork.

the crack of dawn probably looks good to him...

to put a teaspoon of sugar under their tongue: http://health.howstuffworks.com/10019-13-t...the-hiccups.htm I even stopped hiccups in Andrew when he was 1st born by giving him a glucose solution in the hospital.

I highly doubt that...

Shall I just call you "bastard"?

absolutely. The current one is a little blurry. My ugly mug is out there for everyone to gag at, might as well balance the scales.

Although she did meet you more than once... obviously, it couldn't have been your personality. You must have a lot of money.

It's just as well... There is no possible way you are good enough for her anyway.

So you do actually know each other right? I just got the geography wrong?

I haven't heard many, but the times I have heard him speak - I love the guy. He is a breath of fresh air. He may end up being a bust, but he gets it. He speaks honestly, he sounds like he is having fun, and he has said such things as "I try very hard to put a good PRODUCT on the field." I think he has is stojan together...

(Pssst.... click on Lana's profile. Oregon can't be that bad.)

Forgive me, I'm slightly retarded. I've been trying to poke fun at ajzepp, but apparently I don't have a fuggin' clue what I am talking about.

I thought he lived out in Oregon too... Am I sadly mistaken about this? Edit: I guess not. His profile says Georgia. I thought those two were buds in the same state.

Well done. Now where is ajzepp at?

BTW, is there a cooler name for a girl than "Lana"? I think not...
