Well--if it isn't too late, don't mention your past record and see to it that nobody else does.

@spendius,
How bullshit is that, Spendi?

You indulge in common places now?

The start of the religious right may have begun with Nixon when he began pigeon-holing Americans into vari0us groups and races e.g. Federal census of Caucasian, blacks, Hispanic, Asian, Evangelical, Catholic, etc. The Silent Majority started then as a Southern Strategy and also Nixon started the Environmental Act. Jerry falwell is part of that movement.

I know there's no way to will anything. In this specific case there is. It depends on how important the objective is. I chose the common-place on purpose.

What do you recommend? Not try, try a bit or try a lot?

@spendius,
I'm always an adept of "try a lot", and if it doesn't work, "try even harder".

But sometimes, with opposing wills, it doesn't work at all..

I sooooooooo agree with you. I remember it almost day by day, but not of course documented, just my perception.

@Pepijn Sweep,
That sounds complicated and rich. Best to you two.

Back to atheism, the concept, and the surrounding community talking (that's not a nattering, I'm glad to hear your news, and consider you somewhere in the surrounding).

@Francis,
Well- I don't care to go further without knowing how important it is to keep the skeletons in the cupboard. There is a case for sweepie to reveal them himself. But all's fair in love and war they say.

"Medicine is my lawful wife and literature is my mistress" Anton Chekhov. Those russians got a way with short stories and long ones too. I'm thinking the "Crystal Palace" was in London and was a Great Exhibition but I maybe misremembering the Columbian Exposition in Chicago with hot dogs.

I'm quite intrigued by spendius' helpful insistence on hiding his, oops sorry, someone else's gay history. It may explain quite a lot.

Quite a sneaky, snotty person is revealed by that remark. People should be advised to be very careful of what they say in your company.

My advice to Sweepie was based on what I have heard many women say about homosexual men and none of them were Spanish Catholics.

There are a few scientific methods of determining whether a man has any homosexual tendencies.

One of them can only be known to himself.

Another is the use of the word "homosexual" rather than any coy euphemisms.

And another is initiating conversations on the matter rather than responding to others who do so as Sweepie did.

What is your advice to him?

@Pepijn Sweep,
Pepijin - I'd mind you to use caution when talking to spendi. His reputation is unflattering when it comes to tact. Your lighthearted replies may be met with bitter and mean words.

@failures art,
Tact is avoiding telling it how it is. Lies in effect. I don't think there's anything lighthearted about marrying a Spanish Catholic lady without her knowing what we have been told. Which "bitter and mean words" are you referring to?

What do you recommend fa? I'm not the subject of these matters. I think Sweepie can make up his own mind about what I say without your help.

The whole point of a heterosexual man is his respect for woman.
