I find this to be true with most women who consider themselves liberals. They pretend or play like they are lesbians just to be popular or cute with boys. Isn't that just weak? And when I ask the question of if they were liberal or conservative. 99% of the times they are liberals. Isn't it free for all for Liberals?

It's for my 8 year old son's school project. Most websites are very informative and for adults. He's only 8 so something that will give him the info but not bore him (or me) after the third sentence.

Thank-you

A cursory glance at history might suggest that ‘white’ societies have been instrumental in creating ‘civilisation’, but is this true and, even if so, has being ‘white’ got anything to do with it?

I would suggest that the assumption that that ‘white’ societies have been instrumental in creating ‘civilisation’ is false and that any apparent connection between ‘white’ and ‘civilisation’ is a non-sequetor.

Firstly, pale skin colour is an evolutionary adaptation to colder, less sunny climates where the risk of skin cancer is outweighed by the need to produce vitamin D from limited skin exposure to the sun. I would suggest that it is the migration to cooler climates which facilitated the development of settled communities, as opposed to a nomadic lifestyle, that lead to civilization developing. It is hard to be creative when your every waking moment is occupied in the search for food or water as can be the case in Africa.

Secondly, ‘civilized’ societies have developed independently in many places during history – the Aztecs, Incas and Mayan cultures of Southern America; Ancient Egypt; China; India; not forgetting Mesopotamia. The majority of these societies would not be described as ‘white’.

Younger and hipper people - I know that referring to something as "gay" is intended to indicate that it's bad, lame, or stupid, not that it's a homosexual man, but do you know how the term originated? If it didn't stem from thinking that "gayness" was bad or lame, where did it come from?

i have seen 3 extremely overweight kids in the paper in the last week-each of them pictured with overly proud looking parents.
Why are these parents so proud and happy to have their kids be the laughing stock of the nation.
If i were the parents of the kids i would be ashamed of myself for letting them get so big and unhealthy and protecting the from the media circus that surrounds the story.
What do you think of it all?

I am 14 years old and I am black. My friend Tom has a cute sister Paige who is white. Her mom knows I have a crush on her. Paige is 13 and in 7th grade and I am in 8th. Well, I guess Tom told his mom about this and Paiges mom said for me to forget about asking Paige out out because Greek Goddesses dont date Monkeys. I dont want to get Tom in trouble and he is embarrased by his mom so should I just be friends with Tom and never go over to his house anymore?

I understand that any person can practice jewish belief's, which raises a second question. How does the Jewish community precieve person's of other ethnic backgrounds who may have converted or where raised Jewish? If this question is somehow offensive to anyone this is not intended.

Just wondering. It seems to me to be a harmless trait, but some people seem to be just appalled at the idea. Is it because they feel they are being made to feel guilty? I think that that generally brings an irrationally hostile response...I dunno. Explain!

"The whole issue of street gangs is an overreaction. Most of the members of street gangs eventually 'grow up' and lead productive lives. Increasing gang enforcement and labeling these youngsters as 'gang bangers' only adds to the problem."

Okay, first of all I'm a black and I'm really thin. So, when ever black guys see me they say dang are you anorexic, which I know I'm not but can't do anything about it and when white guys see me they saw you have a nice shape. My question is why is it more acceptable to be thin around white people but not so much accepted around blacks?

I mean in your experience is the world all absolutes?

When your kids fight for example, is one kid evil and one not, in each and every situation?

I mean, the assumption absolute thinkers have is that moral relativists don't have basic standards. Is that true, I don't think so.

Also, absolute relativists often don't admit they have relative morals too. Hey, you ask what about such and such an action by our government then? Oh, blame America first they yell in your face!!! But when you choose to for example prop up an evil dictatoir for our self interest, is that not relative morals too?
