What is wrong with that woman that gets upset with the other lady breastfeeding her baby.  What is wrong with today's society?  I am 70 years of ago, never had children, but find the bond between mother and child a wonder from God.  A mother breastfeeding her child is a most beautiful sight.  You have to have some real issue in your life to feel otherwise.  God gave women breasts so that they could feed their children, not just as a sexual symbol alone!  That woman needs to see a psychiatrist. 

What I feel is disgusting is women who go around exposing their breasts with low-cut dresses for all the world to see.  It is not only disgusting, but embarrassing to some of us.   

I wonder if this woman finds it offensive to have someone blow smoke in her face.  That is a disgusting and smelly habit that makes some of us rather ill, but some smokers don't care.  Now there is a health threat.  But breastfeeding in public?  Excuse me, Lady, go get a life. 

Wow, can you turn words around to suit your thoughts!  If you're going to quote me, then quote me right.  I did not say that a fully exposed breast in public is "a most beautiful sight".  What's wrong with you?  I said that a "mother breastfeeding her child is a most beautiful sight".  In all my years I have never thought of zeroing in on the mother's breast, but rather at the infant whose little head covers most of the breast.   

I did NOT "admit" that breasts are a sexual symbol.  I stated that they were not to be looked upon only as a sexual symbol. 

If you are teaching your child that a mother breastfeeding her child in public is wrong, no wonder we have such mixed-up kids.  I would be more concerned with their ability to learn computer language at a very early age and be subjected to creeps and porn. 

Yes, society has changed in the last 70 years, but in many cases NOT for the better.  There are so many other causes in this world that need to be discussed, and the things that are destroying our children's minds is one of these causes.  I definitely don't think breastfeeding in public will destroy any child's mind.   

My 70 years have also taught me that what other people think is not as important as what one thinks about oneself, and I have had a great life, thank you. 

You are so right.  Although I never had any children of my own, I am the baby of nine.  Consequently, I have dozens of nieces and nephews, grandnieces and grandnephews, and step grandchildren.  And definitely two more will only add more joy, so join the big family! 

So show more respect for my rights and opinions.  That's exactly what I expressed.  You definitely sat in judgment of all mothers who breastfeed in public.  Even though it's just your opinion, you chose to express it to an audience of millions of people.  When you do that, you expose yourself to feedback you might not like.   And to quote you, "people should show more respect for other peoples rights and opinions".   I rest my case. 

You have spoken for a lot of other women out there.  I hope you know that you are not alone in your thinking.  Motherhood is a precious gift, and should be considered a blessing.   Breastfeeding is the most natural thing, and God bless you for loving your child as much as you seem to.   

Verbal and emotional abuse can be worse than physical.  The scars are deeper, and take a lot longer to heal, if ever.  I was in my mid 20s, he was 16 years older.  I did not realize I was being totally controlled until life became unbearable.  I left at age 29, and have never looked back.  It's never too late to leave and start over.  Women are self-sufficient, and if they don't like being alone, there are other nice guys out there.  From experience, I advise you to leave NOW!  Not tomorrow or later .... NOW!  You may want to come back, but fight this urge.  You will get over this abusive person.  You are worth more.  You will learn to love and respect yourself, and will be so thankful later on. 

There are shelters and organizations out there that can help you.  You are not alone if you live.  you stay, and you are alone.  I know. 

I don't think we're on the same page, same chapter, or even the same book.   You don't seem to grasp the meaning of anything. 

Compromise to you is for the lady to remove herself from your presence and breastfeed her baby in the restroom, and you sit there just like you were before she started breastfeeding.  Where, pray tell me, is the compromise on your part?

We were left with a book of instructions that has 66 books.  This book covers every aspect of life, no matter how insignificant we think it is.  So, what does it say about homosexuality? 

Romans1, starting with 18th verse:   (18) For God's wrath is being revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men who are suppressing the truth in an unrighteous way ...(24) Therefore God, in keeping with the devices of their hearts, gave them up to uncleanness, that their bodies might be dishonored among them (25) even those who exchanged the truth of God for the lie and venerated and rendered sacred service to the creation rather than the One who created ... (20) That is why God gave them up to disgraceful sexual appetites, for both their females changed the natural use of themselves into one contrary to nature; (27) likewise even the males left the natural use of the female and became violently inflamed in their lust toward one another, males with males, working what is obscene and receiving to themselves the full recompense which was due for their error...(32) Although these know full well the righteous decree of God, that those practicing such things are deserving of death, they not only keep on doing them but also consent with those practicing them.  I implore you to read the entire chapter so that no one will say that this was taken out of context.  Please note that those that consent with these practices are as guilty as those actually carrying out these acts. 

This is not anything new.  These same practices existed in the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah, and both cities were destroyed by God.  Read the account of Lot and his family.  Where do you think the word "Sodomy" comes from?  The angels of God who were sent to warn Lot were attacked by the homosexuals of the city.  Lot offered his virgin daughters, but they refused them stating they wanted to have sex with the angels.  Even after being blinded by the Angels they groped for the doors of Lot's home trying to get to the Angels. 

As a society we have become very lax on caring what God wants from his creation.  We are little by little indoctrinated or brainwashed into accepting practices that are very much in violation of God's word.   

We are all free to choose what we want to believe or accept.  I, for one, accept God's Word and accept it as my guideline.  Judgment is not up to me.  What I have quoted is directly from God's Word.  Each one of us must answer for our actions. 

The Apostle Paul was a follower of Christ.  Read the account of what he has to say about homosexuality in Romans 1:28 to the end of the chapter.   

Ghandi said what he said probably because "Christians" are "Christians" in name only.  Being a follower is not only "believing" in God and Christ, but actually putting into practice everything left written in HIS word.  Think about that. 

You will always have people saying that the Bible was not written by God.  Nobody said it was ... but it does say it was inspired.  Daniel did not even understand what he was writing, and he was told to write because it would be revealed at the time of the end.  And, are they ever! 

I do note that those who use this reasoning, as well as "it's your interpretation", know nothing about what the Bible teaches.  If they did, they would not be making these statements.  The Bible has outlived thousands of scientific books that have become obsolete.  It is amazing that the Bible is very up-to-date.  It is us that are out of step.
