Your good enough, your smart enough, and gosh darnit..people like you.

Feel better?

You're cruel enough, you're dumb enough, and gosh darnit...people like to think you don't exist.

Feel like an idiot?

Gaz is EVERYTHING that is wrong with the LDS church.

I think its a sad state of affairs that the phrase "Suck it up and quit your whineing" has become nearly obsolete in this post Oprah generation.

What ever happened to men like Patton, who could slap a pansy upside the head and tell them to get back to the front?

What the hell has any american got to be depressed about? What, they can't pay their cable bill and their gonna miss out on the new Lifetime movie? Their car isn't fancy enough?

Oh no, let me guess, they never felt that their Father loved them enough.

Damn, I need a swig of Pepto.

I actually agree with you, Gaz. For example, I think the Brethren should quite whining about girls with teased hair. And I think TBMs should quit whining about criticism of the Church's financial secrecy. Or about how temple stuff might be in the new MMM film. And I think Loran should quit whining about what a "foul" place this MB is.

Rather than exchanging condemnations with Gaz, I wonder if it would be more productive to vet what Gaz may or may not know about therapy and address whatever fears he may have regarding it.

My guess would be that he sees therapy as another form of unhealthy and imbalanced feminization of our culture, in which people are made more weak, emotional, and dependant, rather than strong, rational, and independant. He may not be aware of therapy like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which is very strenght, rational, and self-sufficiency oriented.

Thanks, -Wade Englund-

Wade is right. Perhaps he does not know of Manly Therapy. Therapy that adds strength to the bones and iron to the marrow. What say you to that type of therapy Gaz?
