European can refer to Europe, Russia, or USA. What countries, with the exception of Europe itself, were never colonized by the aforementioned nations? For instance, I'm pretty sure that Thailand was not colonized. Thanks!

P.S. Although I included USA in the list of colonizing countries, USA itself was colonized.

At one point of time nature flourished and it was amazing, beautiful. But as mankind fought for life they distoryed much of nature, distoried species and distoried creatures natural habitat an so nature had so change and now lives much more artificially for mankind. If we ever refrence anything to the animal world now remember that it was not always like this and the arguement is less than half of what we push at you.

I use the word natural in previously discribing Wha Was, Wha Is can be argued to be man made. Wha Was allowed living creatures to thrive, Wha Is doesnt. Wha Was allowed living creatures to reach there potenital and work well, Wha Is prevent nature from working well and is slowly dieing. Wha Was can be discribed as a well preserved car, while Wha Is discribed as a car which has been abused and so cant work as well as Wha Was. Wha Was is truely natural
Now is homosexulity natural, does it work?

im going to right many controversial questions i will mark them with {DC}

OK, this is driving me mad! I read this book & now I can't remember the title, from this description can anyone tell me who wrote it?

A young boy living in South East England in the 1950s/60s lives with his mother and after witnessing a man drowning in the sea (he was in a rowing boat with two children) he befriends a fisherman who teaches him the ways of the sea. His mother isn't very nice and his father is out of the picture although he has a step-father and brother and sister who aren't that nice to him. His brother then gets sent away to school, the boy then moves with his mother to another town nearby and his grandmother, who is going blind moves in with them. The boy also befriends a young girl who is interested in nature and the boy learns all the names of flowers and plants. He also gets sent away to school and the master isn't very nice but he has a nice English teacher. There's also a sub-story about his brother's abuse. I think it's partly autobiographical too. Please help!
