I. Know I'm going to catch A Lot of flack about this, but: Why in the heck do So many Christians (or at least that's what they claim) respond to hard/puzzling questions about God/the Bible with name calling and attacks? And if anybody believes something different from them, same thing.

1. They're people. (We all have room to grow--room for improvement)
2. Communication difficulties presented by the mode of communication. (Can't see non-verbal cues, body language, and tone of voice via words on a screen)

No not really Tango likes water....one of these days I am going to put a little water in the tub and see if he goes in....He did get out of the sink though...probably the surprise factor more than the water.... I have seen him stand in the toilet, (clean water), looking as though he is using it as his own personal Jacuzzi......crazy cat....

Yes to the seven year old, however, when the "child" reaches the 8th Grade or above, a lot of times they are as big (if not bigger) than the Teacher, and they can inflict some serious damage.

As you said...........difference between spanking and beating.......no one agrees with "beating" that I have ever talked to.

There are many School Districts in this Country where Teachers are "daily" in fear of their lives because of the danger the Students present. Not the Norm, but it is a reality.

There were no body searches or metal detectors at the doorways when I was going to school :(
