queenlives said:fwiw, i've known **many** people who have undergone personality changes over the course of their lives... it's called "maturing".
when the "maturing" occurs suddenly, **my observation** is that it's usually do to some "big bang" - finding religion, near death, loss of a loved one, etc.
while i frequently disagree with liftshard - and while he may have misspoken by using "jesus" (implying christianty on some level) - i agree with the sentiment of that element of his post... there usually needs to be some big bang for someone to **suddenly** rehabilitate (sp? sorry if wrong).
as for the rest of his post, he's on his own
I hear you on his first comment and that's why I tempered my original post by saying that perhaps he was trying to be funny rather than be taken seriously. I think that might be the case but he's doing such a good job of making an ass out of himself with the rest of his spew that the message gets lost in the mix.
