I believe that morality is something that is inherited through our society, we grow up and one belief/culture and we incorporate their morals and values into our own minds. Do this not say morality in general is meaningless? The plausability that or values are simply what we were believed to think. Therefore should'nt morals be something you truely believe in yourself? Only YOUR opinion, and no one elses matter on morality? For example a person committed a crime, but in his own morals he believed it was the right thing to do and it was justifyable, or perhaps ones sexual orientation is different to anothers, so his morals are different. Morals mean nothing? Please share your views.

Health groups want to ban advertising for junk food to fight obesity. What happened to parents regulating what their kids eat, and promoting excersise. When I was a boy, we had candy, McDonalds, Coca Cola, chips, crisps and all manner of junk food, we had Atari and intellivision game consoles, but none of my friends or myself were obese, because when the sun shined my butt was outside, sport was promoted, and we ate home cooked meals, even with both parents working. Is society really at a state where big brother has to tell us what to eat so we don't get fat. Do people really not care about the welfare and health of their children? People all shout about their freedom, but then they whine about junkfood adverts when there kids are fat, shouldn't they have a look in the mirror, when looking for someone to blame.

IS THAT IT THEN? Are we doomed because of our own stupidity ? The main problem I feel, is that humanity PERMANENTLY lives in a state of denial - are we ? Why can't we get past this PRIDE and 'losing face' bit? Did we cross a threshold we are never going to recover from with the twin towers tragedy ? In life you constantly here the expression from one person to another ''grow up and be a man'' - what does that actually mean when a bunch of people fly a plane into a skyscraper! I know I don't like the world I'm living in at the moment - the more politically correct we become the more I feel we are moving away from what nature intended.

One of John Cleese's characters in the film Life of Brian upon hearing the phrase ''the meek will inherit the earth" said "the meek are half the problem" - when they canned the Benny Hill Show - it killed him - his show WAS his life - and they stopped it due to Political Correctness - was he really doing any harm - or giving pleasure to millions ?

Why do some people choose to go through the same things over and over again, despite learning from past experience that they will only bring heartache, pain, misery, discomfort, etc.

A woman in an abusive relationship chooses to stay with the lowlife despite having heard his promises to change for the 100th time!

After a wild nite out and a hangover the size of Manhattan, we promptly plan for another wild one the following day!

Men cannot multi task, it's proven. Why do they still try, knowing full well it's an effort in futility? :)

Why do some women fall for the same type of guy that broke their hearts in past relationships?

Why don't we LEARN?

Just recently I've been waking up in the middle of the night, feeling really really weird, like I don't belong in my own body, all frustrated and anxty.
I try doing something to distract myself, brush my teeth, read for a little while, put a cd on, but nothing ever works.

It's a really horrible feeling. Like I don't belong, it makes me feel physically ill.

I've got a lot going on at the moment but nothing too stressfull.
I've never felt anything paranormal in the bedroom before, could it be this?

Have you ever experienced anything like this, or can you help?

As a new member in yahoo answers I have been shocked by the level of ignorance displayed here . People are atheists for silly reasons, beleivers in god for god knows what stupid causes; some are are pro creationalists while other are pro darwinism without knowing either what is creation or darwinism actually is,

that when I try to disabuse them of their idiotic notions, some other idiot who agrees with their diabolical ideas gets his answer chosen as the best !!!!

To be honest i honestly think apes do actually use the internet.

so please tell me what damned purpose is there in asking such damned questions
