People always seem to have such a knee-jerk negative reaction when they hear the words guilt and shame, but really, wouldn't we be in moral chaos without them? Your thoughts?

Inductive and deductive claims such as "all," "none," or "some" impact the assertions of argument. As a reader, which are you more receptive to: information that claims to represent all of the cases under discussion or that which claims to represent only some of the cases under discussion? Explain your answer.

I have heard that when primitive Africans saw a white man get out of an airplane they thought he was god. Is that true.

I read a book once from a respected psychologist with a Ph.D in psychology and [SHE] said that ALL girls before or after puberty but more notably WHILE going through puberty develop small 'emotional' crushes on their fathers. While most girls grow out of it quite quickly some hold onto this crush for a year or more afterwards. This author noted however that this crush wasn't very sexual in nature... it was an "innocent" crush that, however, had a romantic aspect. I bet 100% of the girls out there will deny it because it's so shocking to admit that, yes, they had a crush on their father. Has anyone heard of this and if so, is this author true in what she writes?

She volunteered the information to me, but when I ask her to elaborate, she says either "i"m not going to tell you about my crisis", or just shakes her head and waves her hand to dismiss it. Would that lead you to believe it was something she is afraid to tell me about?

Take a moment to tell me about me, based solely on this picture. I'm interested in thorough, detailed answers...life history, status, habits, quirks, personality, etc. The most detailed answer, not necessarily the most accurate one, will be the best answer.

Thanks!

Last night, I had a strange, unusual dream. I was on a roller
coaster, a ver big one. And the ride was unlike anything I've
experienced before. The chairs were full of beautiful, and
sensual women. Some of them had their breast exposed, too.
I was sitting beside one of them. And she smiled, and I smiled.
The coaster took off fast, and smooth. It went very high, at times,
and very low. A lot of hills, and curves. I mean this thing was
huge. Then it stopped. And that is when I woke up. Somehow,
I felt like I was flying.... What does this dream mean ? Do you know ?

People are complicated, right? They're not all good or all bad. They have good and bad qualities. I can think of an example in literature.

In Tolstoy's War and Peace, there is a golden-hearted, hapless main character named Pierre. Pierre is pressed into marrying a society woman, Helena Kuragin, against his better judgment.

Soon, she begins to cheat. The guy she cheats with seems to be a scoundrel. He is a wanton philanderer, disrupting families like it's a sport. Then, mocking Pierre after his conquest, which leads to a duel.

Anyway, it ends up this guy that seemed to be without merit actually had a very caring side. He doted on his mother and his sisters, providing for them, looking after them.

Maybe A. Jolie is a modern day example. There she is wrecking families and appearing to relish it. Then, she goes to Africa and adopts and does good stuff.

How do you net it out, personally, to decide if someone who intrigues you is horns or halos?

am 16 years old. Do I snitch out my classmates?
I made a big mistake at a party with some of my junior classmates. I feel very frustrated. I lost all dignity adn want to move. Me and two guys were playing an adult board game with 5 girls from our cheerleading team at one of the girls houses. In the end, I had to get nude in front of the others. All 7 of them were sitting on the couch when I walked in naked. I had to stand that way for 5 minutes. Well, when I came out, they (even the guys) were mocking my half inch penis and then as time went on, I got an erection of 3.5 inches. The girls were laughing hysterically waving their pinkys at each other and to make matters worse the two other guys, pulled their trunks down and showed they were twice as big as me. I am getting ridiculed by everyone at school. Should I tell on them to my principal?

Inflation itself is not a problem generally, it is just that things run away when it increases above a low level. So is stagflation linked to property and equity bubbles which burst and cause an extended depression amongst those that bought property when it was not sensible to do so?
