No ethical outlook making a claim to rational justification can wholly disregard the principle of utility or the Kantian principle of equal respect for persons. They are grounded in common characteristics of human life and there are situations in which their application is clear and decisive.

Tell me about an occurrence or experience you have had that really meant a lot to you. Be as descriptive or as brief as you like. I just want to hear what others have witnessed that has meant a lot to them.

There is much speculation on when the 'great awakening' which is described as an awareness of the human race, a convergence if you will, of wisdom, psychology, and science, that will allow us to view things in a more enhanced perspective. There is much assumption that such an 'evolvement' of the way of thinking will only happen in certain developed countries, such as the USA, and not until another 200 years passes by.

Your thoughts? Recent progress in technology, nanotechnology, and theories about gravity may lead us yet to find the answer to the 'unified theory'---and enhance our understanding about existance, the universe and religion--as well as about the realities of life and the practicalities (realizations like democracy is not the perfect system, that meritocratic goverments whith checks and balances is enough....but mainly...that the dessimination of information DUE TO THE INTERNET, makes it practically impossible to monopolize information)...thus, increases awareness

Hi, I am doing a project about banned books and i was wondering if there is anyone out there that knows about books that were banned simply because they were by an african american author. Also if you know any books that were banned just for racial issues in general like use of the n word. Lastly, any good websites about banned books or books about banned books that may also help me. thank you!

OK, here's the deal. I COULD go to the dance and MAYBE have the VERY unlikely chance of being asked to dance OR I could go have fun with some of my other friends. When I go to the dances, no one asks me, and I go home really sad. HELP!

Okay, I don't know what to believe. I was saved when I was 13 and I really believed in God and had no doubt that he was real. Now I question if he is real or not. What if he is real and I have questioned it, will I go to hell if it is real? This might be a stupid question but I just wonder.

I took dance lessons from age 3-10 but then I quit. This year I have rejoined at the same studio at age 14. I don't really fit into a class so I took both a beginners and an intermediate class. The beginner’s class is easy, but it gives me a chance to work on technique and learn things properly. I quit the intermediate class last week but I feel like I should have stayed in it. My family and teacher thought I was doing ok in it but they made me feel as if I HAD to keep attending. I didn’t want to disappoint them. I really didn't like the class though and never looked forward to going. Things went to fast and I couldn't understand my notes to practice. Does that make me a quitter? Why do I feel so bad about quitting if I really didn’t enjoy the class?

A wait,
and wait,
another week passes by.
My hope of him asking me out is thin.
Popular girls crowed him,
jocks hussel over.
Only get to talk to him 6th and 8th hour.
He is quiet funny,
how he makes me laugh.
Trying to make freethrows in the garbage can.
Raping isn't his strong suit,
Singing isn't either.
Sometimes I think he's trying to impress me,
or just being himself or neither.
Just talking to him makes my day,
If only we were more than "buddies"
and he would think of me as more than a friend,
my days wouldn't be so gloomy,
If he would just say it.
Would you go out with me?
