The Survivor

God loves entertainment. Jesus as human enjoyed playing with friends. I mean, a love story, a song about cars, crazy Christmas family issues, or a movie about candy are not "Godly" but not bad either. Watching episodes of the Monkees or listening to their music, are not Christian but also not bad. I just heard this song on my Christian hiphop station on accuradio.com: Mouthpi3ce's "Turn it Off." Exactly what this topic is about.

Nothing is "poorly written." Do not worry.

I used to enjoy my Star Trek and Doctor Who and Marvel movies, but the content is just getting worse and worse. Trek I still like my five shows. TOS, TNG, DS9, VOY, ENT. I watched the first season of Discovery and with the gay characters being constant, I was done. I watched the first season of Picard and I was enjoy most of it (was not happy with the death of some favorite characters). however, after a tear jerker of an ending, the final scene with another one of my favs, Seven of Nine, made me yell at my video. I am not watching anymore new Treks. Not movies, not shows. Who Being British, yea they are going to be more comfortable with gays and such. I felt the show was going down when they brought on the first gay companion. And with the last two seasons all these same gender couples, I calling it quits on any new Who now as well. Marvel Those movies were pretty good, but they started sneaking in gay people here and there. Now, with the new phase coming out, like Loki, they got a lot of gays and trans and other sub-humans joining the future franchise that has forced me to be done with it. At this point, for shows, I need to stick with my pre-2020 content. Now, I like some other shows and movies, like horror. I got no problem watching a supposedly, immortal guy (because writers and profits say so without regards to plot) killing people left and right. No problem. But once there are characters of trans/gay confusion, I am pretty much turning it off. That makes me upset and cringe. That lifestyle is affecting my offspring, so I hate it.

We be too busy exploring the universe finally. Hate being stuck and confined to this planet again.

Rant on what? I been through mine and seen plenty. Wanted to hear if anyone have been through any real, or hypothetical, of the same involving the similar scenario. Wanted to see what others would do if/when faced in that situation. For example, I knew a bloke many, many... many long ages ago whose wife told him to hurry to the hospital because their son was in a terrible situation. He was far of a drive from work and desperately tried to make it. A police officer pulls him over and he decided to stop. He is waiting, frantically, for the two officers to take their time walking over. They wanted his ID. His car paper things. They did not believe him. They saw him panicking. Thought he was drunk. Ran his plates!! All he wanted was to see his boy. Every. Second. Counts. Son perished. Father never made it to the hospital. Heck, he never made it to the hospital that weekend! He was arrested and held for 48h for "resisting arrest" because, you know.... cops always right (but, ummmm, shhhhh, I know a few hundred things I can share about that later at another time). (No, that was not me as any person in that story else I be honest about it.) But hey, all is well. Then he eventually got laid off in the 1990s. And then, ummm, could not get rehired because of a dumb "criminal record", and, uh, well..... now I feel bad thinking he still owes me $39 from a poker game in 1987. But that another story....! I go by a personal rule... "learn from the mistakes of others so that you do not have to make them yourself." My rule. Copy write me. You do not need to go by it. But for me, well, let us say, I have survived longer than I should have. So again, why rant? That be bragging about something. I came to ask a question about other people to see what they would do. They can answer or not on what they would or would not do, regardless how they think I should think. Because, you never know when you might get a real inspiration story out of it from someplace you knew knew one could come from. Thanks.

Nice!!! I deal with them police. Some of he kinder ones, I will say.

That is my personal judgement. Thank you. Better than someone telling me I am nuts for thinking up such things.

Ah, but the child is not alone. The cause has happened. The child is en-route, or already, at the hospital. Or, maybe you have the child and you are the one trying to get them to the hospital. Either way, you need to get to where the child has to be or is. That is where I am trying to get at. What will it take for you, the parent, to get to where your child is to save them, or be with them during their last few moments in time?

Honest and heartfelt. Respectful.

Ask in another post and I "may" answer, as those will bring some more painful memories, even more recent ones too. Oooooh boy. I "might." We can only deal with so many memories in a day at a time. But, this post is about a child. I hope you can understand. Else, may lose track of the topic. My OCD would go BOOM (no pun). I will say this, I failed my current company's security tests because apparently, charging at an active shooter is NOT the recommended method of action. I had to lie on my third try to pass the test by saying... duck and cover. Made me sick to answer that question. Goes against decades of training and insanity to answer that.

I ask types of questions like these now and then to see how humans will respond in the most dire situations that I have myself been through or witnessed. Everyone will do something different. Many have. Others not been through them. Always curious how people respond. Humanity. The human condition is something I still learn. Am always curious at times. That is all. Some parents will risk everything for their child. Imprisonment even if it means saving their child. A man will risk his life to save a dying stranger. People go to different lengths for at different times. I am just asking one of those times.

Not exactly the scenario I described, but not bad. I do not understand why people would just assume the child is by themselves on a floor waiting only for you. Interesting. Maybe some people are reckless parents I guess. Let us assume you were called by the other parent, duh, that your child is badly hurt and has a few minutes left to live, maybe, and you need to be here or there. Oh, and you are a half hour away (memories I prefer to not recall, but too late!!!). There, that better? So, now what would you do as fast as you can as EVERY SECOND COUNTS! There, did I ask better? Again, do not tell me what I should be thinking. What would you do?

Not about how I should be thinking.

I have my reasons to gather input from other people. Just looking for what people would do. Not what they think I should or should not have done, or what I should be thinking. So please STOP telling me what I should be thinking (seems to be an ongoing trend in these boards lately against me). Just tell me what YOU would, or would not do. Thanks.
