It was reported on CNN international that 75% of all American babys born now are clinically obese.

This is supposed to be because of evolution-Eg because the adult is obese for the majority of his life,the genes mutate in the next genaration.

Should we be worried?

"Evangelical quits amid gay sex claim" By CATHERINE TSAI, Associated Press Writer, November 3,2006.
The Rev. Ted Haggard, The president of the National Association of Evangelicals, an outspoken opponent of gay marriage, resigned as president of the 30 million-member association Thursday after being accused of paying a man for monthly trysts over the past three years.
The acting senior pastor at New Life, Ross Parsley, told KKTV-TV of Colorado Springs that Haggard admitted that some of the accusations were true."I just know that there has been some admission of indiscretion, not admission to all of the material that has been discussed but there is an admission of some guilt,"
In 2004 Canada released its first-ever survey of "sexual orientation" revealing a one-percent incidence of homosexual persons. About 1.3 percent of men homosexual, about twice the proportion of 0.7 percent among women. THESE NUMBERERS ARE IN LINE WITH U.S. STATISTICS.

Okay, I definetly know that my question when you clicked on it didn't sound right. This I know. Please read my real question.

I have seen many lawsuits against people who are racist against African-American people, Hispanic, etc. However, I have never seen any against people who are racist against caucasion people. Why? Have there been any?

F.Y.I I am very mixed. I have two types of Asian in me, Hispanic in me, Caucasion in me, and I have African-American relatives. I am just asking a question and mean nobody any offense or harm. I am simply wondering...

Is it on the left or on the right if you are facing your toilet. I always thought all toilets had the flush on the right hand side (if you are facing your toilet), until I went to a friends and hers is on the left. I know its not something major, but ever since I went to press the flush on the right of her toilet it has been playing on my mind!

Can you tell me where you are from with your answer please? Thanks.

By the way I am in the UK.

I don't call myself white. I don't want to be associated with suburban mothers race traitors and bland waspishness. I am sicilian. If mexicants are called by their nationality then so will I.
I refuse to call myself that when you have blacks calling themselves african americans. I refuse. I am caucasian yes but white no. You don't see asians calling themsevles yellow.

Do us English all say "Home James". Are all Irish a bit dumb? Are Americans all Fat and Obese? Even more local ones i.e. do all English Northerners breed whippets and have flat caps? Is everyone living in Brighton gay? Are Southernors Pufters? Are Northernors stupid? (all these said with tongue in cheek by the way) LOL

I have met a few racist people, who have all said that I cannot tell that their opinion is wrong, and that they are allowed to be as openly racist as they like because we are all entitled "free speech".
Are there some things which are just universally known as "wrong", and should certain things not be allowed in "free speech" ?

With due respect to our cultural beliefs, I am airing a serious problem prevailing in our society, that, aspiring brides and grooms with a mangalic tag are considered disqualified for no fault of theirs.

This system should be widely discussed and eventually be removed from the specifications for a suitable bride and groom. Lives of many youngsters are devastated because of this system.

I request Indian people to do away with the mangalik tag.
