F
As for the 2nd question, I don't care much what other people think about my posting style. You can't please everyone.
Originally posted by Grampy BobbyI disagree a bit. "Normal" tends to mean what is common. That is not the same as acceptable. It is normal for toddlers and (apparently) soccer players to want to bite people. It is an ordinary part of their existence. It is not acceptable to do so, however. When said toddler or soccer player bites someone, they must be reprimanded and taught to handle their frustrations some other way.
Mine: In the United States of America, as of 2014, "normal" is behavior in word and deed that society considers acceptable.

"normal" is according to a norm.
During times there where different ethical systems in place more often than not claiming to directly stem from a divine being.
Problem is that most holy writ needs interpretetaion and interpretation can differ.
Jesus himself was confronted with the problem that the Pharisees considered themselves very near to the ...[text shortened]... ate. And thus in our society today there are several "normals" which are not generally accepted.
