Scientist Seeks for the 'Mommy Gene'

Some people can get it so right, and yet so wrong.

For a comparison of perspectives, take the time and read the above article, and compare it with this speech by Theodore Roosevelt, just over a hundred years ago.

Lonnie Aarssen is right. The mommies will win. But not because of a particular gene that becomes dominant. They will win because they sacrificed a life of ease for a life of service. They will win because they fulfilled their God-given role instead spurning the primary laws of life. And all people, and all nations, will rise up at her coming, and call her blessed.

Grow Up Or Grow Old

Just nicely in time to chime in with the last Rebelution Conference, StatsCan has released a study showing that (shock) kids are in fact and in statistic taking longer to grow up these days.

People say, "Times have changed".

But I think that 'the times' are saying, "People have sure changed".

In recent years, both young men and women have delayed many transitions. For example, in 2001, half of all 22-year-olds were still in school. Only one in five had a partner (usually common-law), and one in 11 had children.

In 1971, three-quarters of young adults at the age of 22 had left school. Nearly half were married and one in four had children.


Kids, you have one of two choices. Grow up earlier, or grow old earlier.
