Sticking my big nose where it don't belong<G> *Clint has thought long and hard and posted his beliefs and even explained his resoning. We have all sat under Preaching that had elements where the Truth was used to instruct us in faith healing.
People got healed, and some didn't.. I beleve with all my heart, that GOD has the power to heal. Systems of belief are often gathered to form doctrine, and yeild tenets of faith for people to join in fellowship. Fellowship, is our bound here on Rangernet... and to that end we must guard free speech. Being somewhat "infamious" for wipping Dead horses.. I understand the convictions expressed, may upset individuals by strikeing far to close to home. I admit, that my convictions about gender may be wrong or un-called for. *I'm just human<G> Thanks for hearing me out.. *I'm feeling hyper and a bit depressed.. will someone wack me with a rod to cheer me up? <G> ..that will take my mind off my "funk" and give me something real to feel<G> D.Wheeler A#1 --- Jeff & Ellrena Ortner <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > clint grant wrote > I have formulated my own theory on the matter, based upon four things: > my limited knowledge of the subject, > > <>< I would have to agree with that > > Therefore, I have come to the conclusion that ADD could either be a > result of chemical imbalance due to the lack of proper discipline in the > home, or not a chemical imbalance at all, just poor behavior from not > raising kids right.
