1. Yeah, but only after they work down at the plant 12 hours
to bring home the bacon.

3. Working outside the home is non-traditional!!!
It leads to the breakdown of the family! We need to return to our roots where most men farmed, hunted, and made a house and stop the breakdown of the American family!

LOL!

4. No
NO ONE should ever do anything but be prostrate before the Lord.
At all times.
No matter what.
Eating, excreting, sleep-nothing matters but being prostrate before the Lord. God made us to worship God. That is the function of humanity.
The only true way to worship God is to completely obey and give total fealty to Bush, Fallwell, Robertson, and Dobson.
(Isn't it interesting that there's 4 of them. Bush is the horseman of war, obviously-who are the others?)

9. Well, god will send mana to feed you, of course...
...and if he doesn't, that means you weren't faithful enough!

11. Scratching is evil!!!
You should accept the itching that baby Jeebus sent you with piety and knowing you deserve it!

Oh, and happy 500th post!

13. Hey, give me fifty acres or so of wilderness to settle on...t
Just make sure it's in foothills - I'll need a lot in a moderate temperature climate, with a gentle hill for some decent high ground, good bottomland, one year-round creek with a good quality clay source, at least half the lot in trees, and a nice spring or two. Toss in some livestock to help with the tillage and work.

Oh, and make sure I've got a bunch of friends and family to help build a community. About 2- 4 acres per person will do it.

14. I think some men would be happier this way
Making a life for themselves and their family on their own terms, not the terms of some employer who usually does not care for them any more than a piece of machinery. Of course many women would be happier this way too. I am just saying men because that was the topic of the thread and most men are socialized to be a"provider".
