    So you felt guilty too?

      "Discipleship is not a spectator sport. We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes. And yet for some, “spectator discipleship” is a preferred if not primary way of worshipping." -Pres. Uchtdorf

      • This is a really sad story. If you believe her attorney, this is a Mormon woman who followed the program. Active in the church, stayed at home with her five kids (developing no job skills in the process), didn't touch alcohol until a year ago, when she separated from her husband, who came home from Iraq with anger issues. She's alone with no job prospects, in a city far away from her family, so she starts drinking when she doesn't have her kids, and does it stupidly. And now she's on national news.

        This should have happened to her in college. Then no one bats an eye and she learns her lesson. And no kids get hurt.

        • I just want to know how that whole conversation went.

          Daughter: Um...you're kind of large. And I'm still new at this. But my mom is drunk and passed out on her bed. Why don't you go screw her instead?

          Boyfriend: OK!

            Absolutely. It is a tragedy. I can't see how she will ever overcome this.

                She appears to be a very attractive lady. If she gets some real help, I think she could have a good life down the road.

                It is an unfortunate fact of life, but this lady because of her looks will get more offers of help than someone not physically appealing. Am I offbase here?

                  She may lose all custody rights with her kids. And now the story and her photo will live forever in infamy on the internet. She has a tough road ahead.

                    On the bright side, she could replace Napper's favorite actress in his favorite medium.

                      Indeed, a tough road ahead. I am sure you as I do, know people who we are surprised if not amazed at how down they were once and where they are now.

                      I am just saying because of her apparent looks, she has a better shot than a lot do.

                        Kind of poor form to be looking to hook up with her so soon after a tragedy, '71.

Your bare assertions do not make it so. Maybe your reasoning is too stunted and your vocabulary is too limited to go without these epithets."

                          This is weird. People are feeling sorry for her but if it were the father, people would be volunteering to castrate him.

                              It may show that we really haven't achieved equal rights between men and women.

                                I'm not sure you'd want to be the guy following John Holmes Jr anyway.
