Other - Social Science - September 2006

I swear, why do so many of you people that like answering these questions, have to be so negative? Some of us are out here looking for genuine answers. Sure some of you have some very legit, intrigueing answers, but I just don't get the ones out there just trying to put everyone down. Especially when asking for serious advice. That's just not nice people.....why do you do it?

I love cats, but I still think pandas are the cutest, but I just can't have them.

The species has been selected for extinction. The animals don't breed in the wild, and that's a fact, Jack. Natural selection is at work here, yet we humans just have to interfere for some reason. Why do we go to such pains to help a species breed against their instincts? They aren't hunted or having their ecosystem demolished, they're done. Like the dodo. We should put the same efforts into getting gas prices down.

It seems many people's answers are informed by their religious beliefs which have not been verified by science. In the Western World its Christianity mostly (in its various forms), in the Middle East its Islam, India you got the Hindus. and Asia has Buddhists and so on.

Certainly there are limits to science at this time and many scientists are pretty arrogant about what they don't know, but just b/c there's wisdom in the Bible or Koran or Sutra's does not prove any1's beliefs.
Ultimately it seems know no 1 knows for sure and the reason many believe in the afterlife is the desire or fear as to not be nonexistant after we die.
A girl (whose friend I think killed herself) told me once that dead people live on in their "loved one's" memories. That seems like small consolation if your nonexistant but who knows maybe she's right.
Science should investigate this more.

I am not talking about certain stereotypes, but just to stereotype things in general as a form of helping us survive. Coming from our animal parts of our brains, we learn that if we had a bad experience with eating a certain type of berry we stay away from any berry that reminds us of that berry. That is stereotyping!

In nature there are several animals who sole defense mechinism is to simply look like another animal that is poisonous.

Even in other aspects of our lives we are stereotyping but calling it "a learning experience". If a "shifty looking salesman" sells you some bad goods, you are then leary of the next "shifty looking salesman".

So how can we stop something we are programmed to do?

Whenever I ask questions in regards to the differences between men and women in certain areas, I get a lot of these types of answers but no one ever gives examples of why men are ******* to them. It can't all be from observation.

Think about it in this way, if your given the death penalty it's over and done with, your slate is clean. If you go to prison for life and they let you out after 30-40 years what kind of life will you have? "When they send you to prison for life, that's exactly what they take. The part that counts anyway." quoted of Red from Shawshank Redemption. In my humble opinion it would be better to execute someone. That is pretty much what you have done anyway by letting them stay in prison that long. Think what your life would be like if you were seperated from a normal society for that length of time. What could you possibly have to offer when you come out at age 60? How would you survive? Everyone you knew is either dead or forgot about you long ago. What kind of hell would that be?

Do you agree that people are making a big hype over other religions only because racism is so widely condemned & the penalties are more severe than religious arguements.

why can't everyone in the world just live as one and forget about differences in race? why can't we just treat our differences in skin colour as the different face shape or height that we have?
