Actually, if I remember correctly, there have been several discussions in
this newsgroup over the last couple of years about the sexual abuse of young
men within the Catholic Church. Of course, since this situation involves a
widely known person, it is natural for this situation to garnish far more
public attention.

He acts childish enough at times, Mike. Since Michael Jackson thinks of
himself as a kid, perhaps N8WWM can also convince Michael Jackson that he's
a kid too. I'll certainly vouch for you, N8WWM. ;-)

One is innocent under the law until proven guilty in a court of law.
That
does not suggest even for a moment that people cannot have their own
opinions or beliefs concerning the guilt or innocence of a person, or
voice
those opinions or beliefs.

Nope, sure doesn't. Moreover if it meets with one's agenda...

I wonder how they had all those kids if they shared the bed?

Damn, Mike, you sure lack imagination!

would be wrong; however I apologize to you
if I implied that.


No apology needed, Kim. I interpreted that as you thinking it hilarious
that I would mention my brother's death in a discussion about Michael
Jackson. And perhaps it was not the best place to bring the subject up.
However, since Larry had mentioned race-riots, it gave me a very rare
opportunity to point out the wider impact of these riots (consequences far
outside the immediate area). I took advantage of that opportunity. In my
brother's case, the consequences were felt all the way across the country
in
Florida. This message gives me an opportunity to also point out that these
wider consequences are rarely reported in the news.

Well.... I am quite refreshed, Dwight. I would have lost all hope of
sanity for you if you'd pandered off the same crap Larry handed out...

Thanks...

Now, if one spouse is not a biological parent, that's potentially a
different ball game, but I won't go there.


Hell, I'll go there, because to not "go there" just panders to people with
twisted dirty little minds who think "something must be going on there".
Just to make it interesting, let's say that the child is adopted. Those of
us who are parents (and I think most who aren't parents) understand the
unconditional love parents have for their children, be they "natural",
"step", or "adopted".

Yup.

Of course, there are a notorious few who abuse children. They are the rare
exception, not the rule.

Until the very recent past, perhaps less than 150
years in this country, and much more recent than that in less developed
parts of the world, families didn't live in 3 and 4 bedroom homes where each
person had their own "space". Not only did Dad and Mom and the kids sleep
in the same place, but also Grandpa and Grandma and the occasional cousin or
Auntie or Uncle who might be without their own nuclear family to spend the
night with.

Yup.

And due to all sorts of diseases and the risks of childbirth, "blended
families" were extremely common. In some cases, the youngest children in a
family would have no blood relation to the oldest ones.

The concept of the "nuclear family" is extremely new.

Here's another situation for you: Lots of people I know go tent camping with
their kids. One tent per family. Bunch of sleeping bags on the floor of the
tent, or in the back of the minivan. Not exactly "the same bed" but not much
privacy either.

Are all those folks damaging their kids? I don't think so!

Dr. Laura would likely have a heart attack if she saw how some
people live today in places outside her privileged neighborhood.

"Dr." Laura would likely have a heart attack if she saw how some
people live today in places *inside* her privileged neighborhood.
