  1. People who use the term 'evil' seem to create in their minds some malevolent force at play, when I see it more as missing something. For instance, you're not "attacked by thirst." You feel thirst because you're lacking water. Thirst isn't an active thing. It's something that occurs when some other element is missing.

  2. You make a good case against giant institutions, like the APA. Anything big enough to wield that much power is very dangerous. Hopefully, we'll arrive at a more de-centralized way of doing things, from government to education to health care. It's the old "all your eggs in one basket" trope.

  3.  @lordsneed9418  ruling by fear is very effective, until you lose one battle. Then everything disintegrates. But you can control a lot of people that way for fairly long spans of time, as long as you keep winning. Eventually, though, the wheels come off. I think we see that starting to happen in western countries. It may be too late to do our children any good, but maybe our grandchildren will have a shot at pushing the Human Project forward.

  4.  @MidlifeCrisisJoe  Even in divorce, I think you still enjoyed a 2-parent family. I think traditional marriage is still probably the best way for men and women to team up to produce the next generation, but the "till death" part may be a bit old-fashioned. If things between the parents aren't working out, it's probably better for them to part ways and STILL share the child-rearing responsibility. Better than watching endless control dramas and a cold relationship between your parent role models. A lot of why I never married was because I have a personality much like my father's, and the way he treated my mother and rode rough-shod over everybody in the house was something I didn't want to do to anyone else, but I could see it in me to become just like him, if I were working long hours and coming home tired and a bit angry every night. The younger generation, now, doesn't seem as obsessed with the marriage vows. As long as they fulfill their responsibilities to the children and provide a stable, loving, and supportive home life, why should they stay in a relationship that isn't working? Maybe 100 years or 200 years ago, the 100% traditional marriage was crucial to long life and general prosperity for more people. But society isn't as binary as it used to be. It's not the end of the world for a woman to separate from her husband. We need to be more fair to husbands and their parental and economic rights, but it's better than it was a century or two ago, for all parties concerned.

  5. Let your husband finish a sentence, once in a while.
