Parasites, the missing word in science, medicine and philosophy: Why ?

It appears that the world has become isolated from the dangerous world of 'parasites'.

From the parasites that cause ulcers, IBS, Crohns, perhaps even MS and Cancer, the medical world has turned a blind eye to this relatively simple cause for many illnesses.

In the world of philosophy, the term 'parasites' has been ignored as in corporate or welfare parasites, or as in the world of religion, homosexual and heterosexual pedofiles who prey on little children, parasites as in spouses who prey on their families, or children who prey on their parents, or lesbian feminists exploiting half-truths to divide the sexes and promote division.

Why is this term, 'parasites' being ignored ?

I am doing a research paper for my History class and I want to know why is Africa behind in the 21st century in terms of technology, medicine, economy, and few others. Is it because of the environment, the government, their skin color, what is it? And I have a specific time frame- before the 1500s because that's what my teacher wants me to focus on as I am taking the first part of History- 1500 and earlier and he wants me to disover what happened to Africa during that time period.

I know Africa is struggling with the AIDS epidemic and I want to know why- but I don't want to soley focus on that. I want to know why there are poverty, why is the government not doing anything about it?

And with that, I would like information on where I can find more information about that. I already have one book- "Guns, Germs, and Steel" by Jared Diamond and I have found some insightful information on why Africa is where they are today.

Your help/input would be greatly apperciated!

In homeschooling, what is the importance of quizzing? I mean, I know what my daughter is learning, but what is the importance of testing her on materials? I'm not talking about state-required testing, but like chapter tests on math or history. Any ideas?

This story is a little bit connected to anime and the real world. It starts off with Animania that these five girls are all wanting to go to. They go not knowing they see something so unusual. In Animania there is a fortune teller they go to have their fortune told to them. The fortune teller speaks of another unusual world colliding with our world and that they will embark on a long and adventurous journey. The girls don’t believe that the fortune teller is telling the truth until they have lunch and watch the magic show. The magician says a few spells wrongly but ends up having the wrong results and accidentally says this other spell that he remembers that all of a sudden this vortex comes out of no where and out comes these people from Japanese cartoons. An adventure soon awaits the girls

Does one have to have a certain GPA for college when studying psychology? Can anyone with any GPA major in it? I'm in high school right now (11th grade) with an average 3.33 GPA and I'd love to go to a state (University of California) college and major in psychology. Will it be good enough? Any tips are appreciated. Thanks!

I graduated in 2003, and still dont know what to do with my life. In high school, I was a loser. Not by choice, by mistakes I made my Freshman year. And by my looks, and financial situation. I was also very private. Plus a lot of the kids at my school were very cruel. I was invisible, or at least it seemed. I still have the agression in me. I wish I could make things right, and destroy my inner demons from which I've carried with me. I mean I look at myself now, and realize I am in the same situation I was in high school. Nothing has hardly changed except im older. What the hell am I doing sitting here? I should be out somewhere with friends... Do i even have any true friends? What do I have that is so good? **** it whatever
