Summary

If boys and girls are so interchangeable that boys can run, bike, and wrestle against girls, why does alcohol cause so much more havoc on girls’ brains than on boys’ brains? Why do far more girls deliberately cut their flesh than boys? Why does anyone cut themselves? Why do people pierce their tongues and bellybuttons? The connection between the bloody observance of the Muslim cutting festival of Ashura and high school girls cutting their skins. Does the Bible prohibit suicide? Where? Old Latin-speaking monks referred to high alcohol content distilled liquors as ‘spirits’ because we use alcohol mostly to dull spiritual pain. The time when your rabbi felt attracted to another man’s wife. People are hurting children by depriving them of the words for describing spiritual pain. Learn why primitive tribes cut and pierce their skin and why children of intact traditional families of faith engage in less alcohol and drug abuse and far less cutting than other children. The difference between being a teenager in 1950 and being one today. Why can animals be content in good cages while people never can? Why do some of us prefer connecting to others on the internet over relating to real live people in our lives? Learn to control your screen time by understanding the addictive appeal of digital devices. Why do some people love working for commission only? Learn more about your ad choices.
