Topic : 07/22 Male Egos Out of Control

If you're a Pastor then I think that you should get a few more morals and values. Maybe even read the good book a few more times. I certainly have nothing against you dating, I know that you are in fact human but, you are very critical. I think that you of all people should be able to look beyond the surface of someone. Well, maybe when it's time for you to be judged by God at the Pearly Gates he will also be critical of you.

When you would put your 2 cents in. I totally agree with everything you said about Paul but why the bashing for the woman who politely turned down John? She WAS polite about it. He's the one that went berserk over it! So what if she prefers a man that earns a certain income. Maybe she earns that much herself and doesn't want someone looking to be taken care of by her. I don't know if you've ever noticed but many, many of the men on these on line dating clubs are looking for a woman who matches their income also. I went into one for fun one day, both me and my hubby out of curiosity, and most of the men that earned over 6 figures were very precise in what their qualifications in a date had to be. It was pretty amazing, she has to earn over 6 figures, have a degree such as a Masters (nothing less than that), work out daily, the list goes on and on. They have VERY high standards. So why can't the women set a few standards themselves? The only reason she turned him down was because he was so into himself and it turned her off. Again, she was very polite about it and didn't deserve the reprehensible bashing that she received from him.  

Listen, just because you sucked as a Catholic doesn't mean you should blame the Church for your own lack of morals, or for your inability to pray.  You say Catholics can do whatever they want, when they want, because all they have to do is go to confession.  You really are not very well educated.  Confessing to the Priest follows Jesus' example of offering forgiveness to those who confessed their sins, but then He said GO AND SIN NO MORE - and that is exactly how the sacrament of Reconciliation is to be done.  If you thought you could behave in whatever unseemly ways you wanted to and it would all be fine because of confession, then you were an ignorant Catholic.  Not the Church's fault.  And you say you weren't much of a praying man because you were a Catholic?  You weren't much of a praying man because you weren't much of a CHRISTIAN.  Catholics are Christian, and we follow the same biblical principals as all Christians, so of course we are called to "pray ceaselessly".  Again, don't blame your own ignorance and lack of education or morals on the Church.  blech.

I would like to purchase a copy of Casanovas instruction manual on how yo get woman for my brother-in-law. We want to see just what makes it so great.

Thank you

While it would be improper for me to believe I could make a diagnosis from the presentation made on a talk show, these men all exhibited quite a few of the characteristics of Asperger Syndrome.  Aspergers is a high functioning form of autism in which the person does not really possess the capability of putting themselves in another's shoes.  They do not really consider how others think/feel.  In brief, "they just don't get it"

This syndrome was not described in the American literature when these men were children, and thus persons of this age are often considered "different", but do not have a diagnosis.

Please consult  IANproject.org (Interactive Autism Network.org) for an article on Asperger Syndrome described by adults that were not diagnosed when they were children.

Anger at  persons with Asperger syndrome will not be helpful to them or others.  However, social skills can be taught. 

Your husband, my husband and every man who RESPECTS women are REAL men.

These two wingnuts clearly are making up for a lack of something in their character whether it's mentally (obviously), emotionally (retarded), spiritually (sadly) and physically (my bet).

Bet they made their mothers proud that day.

Seriously!! You really think this is really  a possible explanation? Do you know someone with Aspergers, because the info you posted is only partially factual and very limited. While each person with this syndrome do exhibit some similar traits the diagnosis of this syndrome is an extensive process and is very multifaceted.  It amazes me how many times when people do irresponsible and/or stupid things the need to 'diagnose' a syndrome/condition is overwhelming.

How about sometimes it just is what it is??!!
