You must be kidding. My daughter was born at 10:05 pm one evening and the very first thing she did when I held her in my arms at about 10:20 the same evening was suckle.

Tell me where she learned it so quickly, puhleease.

Sex is a motivational force huh? Only to someone who denies the obvious. But of course, I must try to remember where you live and that prostitution, even forced prostitution, is rampant in that part of the world. Maybe money is motivational force? I dunno, help me here, I am trying to figure this out. Hey did you ever see that Movie, named simply 'Montenegro', made in about 1982 or so? glamorous.


It must be difficult to reason differently having been raised in an atheistic communist country though. If Yugoslavia was anything like communist Russia believing in God could end you up in a labor camp I know... I know a few people, Jews especially, who emigrated from communist Russia and Yugoslavia many years ago because the living conditions were dreadful. I have a friend from romania, they barely had working toilets. It's true, the Russians and other communists didn't generally outright kill Christians and Jews, they worked them to death instead. Perhaps still do... though given the children that saw the evil apparitions pretending to be Mary the mother of Jesus in your part of the world it's probably evident they held onto the Catholic church near to you.

I posted a photo of an angel for you to enjoy, ponder, and yes, of course, even mock to your heart's desire for a while.

Useless your mocking though.

Tocqueville never met Stalin.

But rather than pick out one line that suits your (surely communist educated) distaste for America, Egan, try adding this in just to be fair:

[color:"blue"]"Religion in America takes no direct part in the government of society, but it must be regarded as the first of their political institutions; for if it does not impart a taste for freedom, it facilitates the use of it."


"Freedom sees religion as the companion of its struggles and triumphs, the cradle of its infancy, the companion of its struggles and triumphs, the cradle of its infancy, and the divine source of its rights. Religion is considered the guardian of mores, and mores are regarded as the guarantee of the laws and pledge for the maintenance of freedom itself."


freedom is "something one must feel and logic has no part in it. It is a privilege of noble minds which God has fitted to receive it, and it inspires them with a generous fervor. But to meaner souls, untouched by the sacred flame, it may well seem incomprehensible."


Alexis de Tocqueville [/color]

Alexis de Tocqueville, who was fired from his position by the French dictator Napoleon Bonaparte, and pretty much had a nervous breakdown as a result.
