What is the point of wars and racism, everything bad in the world caused by evil, stupid people, it just messes the world up and ruins people's lives? Why cant people just be happy? There is nothing wrong with being a different colour or religion!

Is it the media behind that? Is it the politicians trying to magnify the danger and use the fear factor to justify their lavish spending on military and negligence for the good of the nation?

I'm 16, and I'm a guy and I'm not good at sports, so I don't play them. I live in Toronto, Canada and all the guys here play hockey. I don't because it doesnt interest me so they all call me gay and no one likes me. I'm not gay, I just don't like sports. Sports doesnt interest me. I've tried them, and hated it. But now I think my life is over because my Dad's company is sending him to Dallas, Texas. So we are moving down in Febuary. This means I have to start liking football or no one there will like me, because I've heard foorball is the main thing in Texas. People expect a guy to be into sports, and be strong and all that stuff. Even wikipedia has a article about it and says so:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Masculinity
but I haven't followed all the guidlines or rules for masculnitiy or whatever, so it means I won't become a proper man the way they should be? Like asking this question makes me look weak or w/e and not playing sports makes me gay?

I don't see it if it's here. Walking through supermarkets and shopping malls, blindly staring, pretending everything is just fine, afriad to show feeling. The music is dead, without any real emotion. The movies are all escapist crap. Money and luxury, big screen TVs, SUVs, and jewelry rule the world. Why? No passion. No passion for the things that matter, for what's in the heart, for love and art and music. I speak of music not created on a computer, but on an instrument. Where is the passion? Oh, yes, we see people with a passion for violence and death, but is there any passion for life, for adventure, for what is real and true? Or are we doomed to live and die as robots, doing what is expected of us, living by the rules, afraid to speak out of turn, of being politically incorrect, of what other people might think. We don't have to be out of control to stop being controlled, do we? Tell me what you think, and I mean say it out right, like you've got a pair!

What could possibly be wrong with everyone..Who cares if the English is correct?Why is it such a big deal.. People scan for hours to see what questions they can find to answer ,yet they cannot answer anything in an intellectual way but they are so quick to correct someone's grammar.I have been on computers far longer than most of you .. I was on them before home computers.I have never criticized anyone for their use of the language and now the English language has been so butchered by the use of short cuts on cellular phones ..What I want to know ..who gives a royal crap .. I mean really .If you can't read between the lines and know whats being said don't bother..You are insulting people and hurting their feelings because you don't have the intelligence to see a need or answer a question nor the decency to avoid conflict because of a typo..I miss the old days when only smart people could use computers.People always apologized about spelling.I had a joke that i said I spoke fluent typo

When i found out they were going to start showing "The Wire" and this new series they have showing the lives of black drug dealers, killers, gang bangers etc called "American Gangster"...i refuse to watch that channel...Question is, what the hek are they trying to do? Whats the purpose of putting these shows on glorifying the crime and violence that plague the black community? Hold on BET is owned by Viacom..a company ran by a white guy named Phillip P. Dauman. What are they trying to do? They have a demographic in mind, they know who their audience is...wtf?

I made a statement about a theory being a belief and here's the response I got:

From: Michael

Subject: Scientific Theory

Message: If you're 22 and you think a scientific theory is just a 'belief', then you must have failed high school science class.

A scientific theory is not a degree of truth on some truth scale where a fact counts for more.

A scientific theory is merely a collection of scientific facts in an attempt to explain them. Let me restate: a scientific theory is a framework explanation for observed scientific facts.

Besides, gravity is just a scientific theory. So is atomic theory, cell theory, plate-tectonics, heliocentrism, elliptical orbits, etc...

Please, educate yourself before making a fool of yourself.

I am an American citizen but I do not like America anymore. I like India and I would like to movie to India and live there and start a family there.

Will I be welcome in India? I am a friendly person and respect the cultures and religions and traditions of India. I will do my best to be a responsible citizen of India.

Will it be possible to meet a bride to marry in India? Will her family allow her to marry a white person?

Will Indians ever accept me as "one of their own" or will I always be an "outsider"

Thank you kindly for your responses.
