Mother Teresa
Thou shalt have no other gods before me. Exodus 20:3

Contradiction? But then again most Christians ignore Exodus 20:4 also – You shall not make for yourself an idol, whether in the form of anything that is in heaven above, or that is on the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth.
Hmm…but if anyone had ever followed that commandment, Rome and everwhere else filled with religious icons would be empty of art.
ADHD +ADD
From Yahoo News
“Nearly 9 percent of American children have attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), but only 32 percent of them are getting the medication they need.”
“Watching television more than two hours a day early in life can lead to attention problems later in adolescence, according to a study released on Tuesday…”Those who watched more than two hours, and particularly those who watched more than three hours, of television per day during childhood had above-average symptoms of attention problems in adolescence…”
I’ll bet the two are related. Sure, not every kid who watched TV when younger ends up with ADHD or ADD, but probably the more suseptible kids did end up with attention disorders. But prevention is not the American Way. There is no money in prevention. Eli Lily and Pfizer make too much money from these meds to want to prevent more kids from watching too much TV. Big Pharma has a vested interest in creating more hyperactive kids.
