It means that you live off the dead. You are unable to accept change.
You revere the status quo. Is that clear enough for you?

That makes two of us.

What IS a morally upright person? What IS living loosely? Buzz words
to convey your "goodness" to others who use buzz words?

I think you're a bit late to notice this problem.

Sez you. What makes you think that your life is any more pleasant than
mine? What makes you such a great leader if only one other person
looked like you?

Capitalization of particular words is NOT the equivalent of shouting;
it's the equivalent of verbal emphasis. I'm glad you're not afraid. It
makes it so much easier just to walk up and kill YOUR KIND.

Wait a second here...people don't make a difference, lifestyles do?
Well who's living these lifestyles...dogs?

You don't know a damned thing about my morality but you assume because
I don't want to see everyone on the planet marching in lockstep that
I'm morally bankrupt. What does that say about YOU?

What ways? People who cuss out the self-designated moral authorities
are self-destructive? People who question authority die young? Yeah,
right.

How often? Or are you just assuming again?

>As far as authority.  I have authority in my home. 

You THINK you do. Unless you're reading your children's minds, you
don't know what they do when they aren't in your sight. And when
they're eighteen, unless you've brainwashed their little minds into
doing whatever Daddy says, you haven't got jack-shit.

 If you rear them to live a life that is pleasing to themselves, then
you won't try to control every aspect of it. And if God wants me to
life some certain way, then S/He'd better get his ass down here and be
specific...and S/He'd better make it worth my while.
