I may be misunderstanding but I believe many illnesses are natural events. Maybe not intended at creation but since we have fallen away we have to accept the punishment for sin.

Then you've never spent any time in a girls mind....I've heard it said that the most cruel thing on earth is a 13 year old girl.

It's so we don't have to talk and watch movies. LOL
Ever notice how 2 guys can sit and watch a football game (or anything for that matter) not say a word and have a great time. You get 2 women together and it's chat chat chat. I hope my wife doesn't read this. LOL

ha! This is funny....I work with men...I'm the only female in my office. They talk so much more than any woman I know. They're on the phone all day! Most of it isn't even job related...they're talking about little league, hunting, boating, fishing, their new truck/jeep, the movie they watched last weekend...and it's not only them. Look at my family cell phone bill...my DH uses 3x's the minutes that I do, and he carries 2 cell phones! One for work, and his persona cell phone, and at the movies, he's the one asking "what just happened?"...I'm the one shushing him.

I guess what I'm saying is that the stereotypes just don't ring true...I could go on, but it would run long...

I read a research study once that basically said that men do talk as much as women. The difference, it went on to say, had to do with roles and power issues. For example, in the home where the man normally has the "power" and the woman is in a subordinate role, then the woman talks much more. If a man finds himself in such a role, then he will talk much more. It was saying that if you look at men in office situations, if they are not the one with the "power" then you find that they talk just as much as women and gossip just as much. Women in office situations who are in "power" tend to talk much less. So, the study found that the amount of talking (and type of talking) was not a gender difference, but rather had to do with the distribution of power and who was in subordinate or even neutral roles. Something to think about there.
