Social Science - 23 July 2006

One who used to be outgoing and have a social life, but now does not leave the home. Does not look after one's self. Does not work.
Has turned away from all family and friends. Takes antidepressants and sleeping pills, but stays up all night and sleeps all day. What can cause this type of behaviour?

I eat too much of it, I do not want to get fat or unhealthy. Does anyone have any information, bad information on it to make me stop eating it. Trust me, it will work.

And soda too if you can.

When you are given a chance to change something in your past, what would it be?

Does it help you out with your everyday life or does it make you more confused? Do you see symbols from previous days in your dreams? I am starting one, but I'm afraid of what it may reveal of myself.. and my life, should I be? So far it has revealed a lot to me about my problems and feelings in only two dreams and I think it's good.. but just wanted to see how it is for everyone else. Oh and how long have you had your dream journal?

Thanks =-)

Ok, this is my last set of historical dates for tonight. As before, don't look 'em up. Good luck!

1. Martin Luther publishes (in a way!) his 95 Theses.

2. Charlemagne is crowned Holy Roman Emperor.

3. Thomas of Beckett is assasinated.

Check out the question and answer he picked as the best. The answer don't have anything to do with the question. What do you think? Maybe he needs to see a doctor for having too much pride? Do you think he might start shooting at someone if they disagree with him? Sure sent me a nasty gram.

Now that I have lured you all in…

What are your thoughts on the current state of our youth? When observing changes in the society, what differentiates the current youth from the Baby-Boomer generation (for most of you, your parent’s generation) aside from age?

How are you different from your parents when they were kids?

I posted this in another question and I got no solution to this riddle/joke. It is one of these Chuck Norris jokes, but the point of it can only be accessed through a couple of layers of induction.

Can you please solve my riddle, i.e. explain this joke to me for ten points?

Elton John once made Chuck Norris a rotten egg. Apparently rotten eggs can roundhouse kick you in the face.

Just sometime thing I'm curious about...and ladies..using the word "chauvaniusts" is not the answer!

It seems chivalry is just about dead and gone because feminists are taking the pride out of the male role in society, Men are sued for being themselves and women are still beating men down, even those that don't deserve it.

For example, there's a "Womens studies" forum topic in this social scienc section...yet, No "Men's Studies." Another double standard?

I just read someone's question: why do Vegetarians feel the need to condemn meat-eaters. It made me think of the conversation I had with my daughters today. My daughter is a vegetarian, but I am not. She is a vegetarian because it bothers her for an animal to have to give its life to feed her. But she doesn't talk about it to others. In fact, she's kind of secretive about it because as soon as someone finds out she's a vegetarian they tell her things that really bother her like, "I love meat, couldn't live without it" or they'll tell her a story of how they lived on a farm and killed lots of animals. Just stories that in general bother her. Why do meat-eaters feel the need to gross out a vegetarian?

Americans, on average, enjoy more wealth than many other countries combined. Is it possible for them to one day have the same wealth or does the world lack the resources?

(Assuming abortion is criminalized)
- A man and woman have consexual sex
- The man empregnates the woman
- Neither the man nor woman want the child
- The the man and woman attempt to kill the child their selves, (using any method)
- The woman and child are harmed or killed durring the process

Who's to blame?

If one believes pro-lifers ought to feel guilty if abortion is criminalized and thousands of pregnant woman/teens commit back-alley abortions, then should pro-choicers feel guilty for the 1.3 unborn children killed each year?

The physical phenomenon called Gravity binds all things in a matrix.

You are all slaves of the others who program you from birth... science calls this conditioning.

Science is still trying to understand what causes gravity.

People are still trying to avoid being conditioned...

Funny ha you don't even know why you are stuck to the planet or how to stop being conditioned!

Einstein thought it was a warp in space-time due to the matter in it however this has not been proven conclusively.

I can tell you how to stop being conditioned and see the matrix, are you interested?

Any historian will state, "history always repeats itself". Such is true for feminism. Despite what many may think, American and the UK were not the first nations to experience feminism. Feministic uprisings have occured throughout man's history.

Yet, for various reasons, feminism always declines, (at least as history shows). The decline is always more subtle than the incline, but just as certain. Some causes are men's dominate nature, and economic depressions, (which force men and women to depend on one another). The "modern" woman comes and goes, but the conservative woman seems to withstand time. Of course, feminism may still linger "ungerground", but its influence has always diminished with time.

Will conservative women outlast modern women yet again?
