    » Hello Mr. Rooster ; I moved this discussion to this more appropriate thread. Mr. Rooster wrote : "People are like animals, and their sexual drives will involve some types of pre-marital sex.

    • Anonymous commented : -year-old wife in the world's longest-lasting marriage has died. Liu Yang-wan from Taiwan was married in 1917 to Liu Yung-yang, who is now 104. Their daughter-in-law said Mrs. Liu died peacefully from natural causes. Their 86 year marriage was the longest registered in the Guiness Book of World Records, beating former American record holders by three years. According to ancient tradition, Liu Yang-wan was sent to live with her future husband's family at the age of 5, to take care of him and do household chores, relatives said. - Reuters." After the "new thinkers" get over their horror, let's take a closer look at this. Apparently, the boy was 6 and the girl was 5 when they were brought together by the familes. As a result of this arrangement, the fabric of the childrens's lives becomes so inter-twined that the very thought of separation becomes UNTHINKABLE. This is a true soul mate. This is so important that I want to say it again : if you can successfully inter-twine the children's lives, the thought of separation becomes UNTHINKABLE. This is what you need to strive for if you want a low divorce rate. Contrast this to our current "wisdom", which strives for independance, self sufficiency, strength, women's rights, men's right's, children's right's, and the whole "dating game", which takes our children's precious hearts and rips them to shreds. The new thinking cannot solve any of today's problems. Rather, it is the cause of today's problems. Who do you think will have a lower divorce rate, the "ancient tradition" mentioned above, or our "new thinking" tradition? I believe things could improve substantially if we try to fuse some of the elements of "ancient tradition" with the rigors and "artificial environments" of modern life. This is entirely possible, but so far our sociologists and cultural leaders (both in the West and in Thailand) have failed to even identify the root cause of the problems. This is why everyone is spinning out of control, and this is why I know that things will continue to get worse, MUCH, MUCH worse before they get better. Cheers!!
