All Chinese means that true to any Chinese people living in any country. Or you can just post examples of cultural taboos that comes from Chinese culture.

There was nothing malicious or intimidating in my posts. If people disagree with my viewpoints - wonderful. Tell me why without preaching to me. This is ridiculous though. Even a question about the English lyrics to a song by Vusi Mahlasela called "Silang Mabele" has disappeared. Seriously, if anyone doesn't like my questions, TELL ME. Don't resort to censorship. It only makes me think less of those who are unhappy with my beliefs. Ridiculous, really.

Why is it that in modern society people plan their day around the television? Favorite TV show on at 6 so have to get out of work early to get home in time.

Also, is there a way to help the world back into a society where people spend more time with eachother than with the tele.

Minorites are here saying we are all the same race. I'm still here saying no we aren't, and I don't believe that we are, and also that would kill our uniqueness. Every race has their own unique characateristics. To say we are all the same race, like we are have the same flaws and strengths is wrong. You cannot compare a more successful race with another. That isn't fair, but obviously it will look good for those below to compare themselves or to say they are equal or the same with those above them. National powerwise, or physical characteristics and beauty. I think we aren't the same. We are humans, but when they refer everyone as the same, they mean more than just the human race.

Why do people think that times has drastically changed, and that racism is something like so decades ago. In reality like that Kraimer guy said: "Fifty years ago i'd have you upside down with a fork up your beep."

Ladies and gentlemen, it hasn't been that long since the segergation. I mean it's been less than a generation. Why do you keep basing "races" people. Maybe those people just want to defend their own kind from outside invaders.

I mean it's not even one generation, maybe we still have the ideas and messages spread for generations about minorities. Maybe I am not ready to change, and to have respect. Is that wrong? Why should I have respect for others yet? They haven't earned my respect. I see people keep telling me race doesn't exsist, or course it does, and it's no political or social thing. Race does exsist. I am one thing your another.

There are many other Gods out there and some even older than yours. Why don't you agree with other's opinion and belief of creation of the world or the why people should live? Science is the majority. DO YOU BELIEVE IN MAJORITY RULE?

I read an article last night on camels in the sahara dessert,
it was so sad,
i cried
They even drag the camel along for a few hours to see if they will get up and keep going
they rely on grass for food for energy..
and sometimes there isnt a sign of grass for weeks .
the camels get swallown and blistered feet
starving
there are "razor sharp rocks"
the person who wrote the article said "i started counting dead camels but once i got to 1000 i gave up"
he also said " we lost 2 camels in the first two days, they were too weak to go on, i would have liked to shoot them to put them out of there misery pain and suffering but i didnt have a gun"

does anyone else find this incredibly sad and cruel?

shouldnt there be protection against camels?

I mean, you see the media giving us images of girls buttocks.. and "asses" and rappers also saying things about buttocks . However, the whole area down there is not really a clean body part cause that's what we use for going to the restroom and doing # 2. How is it that when we think of SEXY stuff, we forget about the fact that buttocks are nasty

If more kids were informed about how ANYONE can become an alcoholic, it could not hurt. Knowledge is power!

Tonight when a couple of my friends were watching the U.S.A. Academy Awards, they scoffed at presentation for foreign film recognition (foreign language film category?)

This seems odd to me considering that anyone who is in the U.S.A. migrated or descended from other countries

Statistics have shown that driving with a cell phone, or driving while eating are just as or more dangerous than a drunk driver with a .08 reading. We have no problem sending the drunk to jail, but the others usually get off with no issue.
I feel that we need to be consistent in our punishment based upon the dangers that you are presenting (which is equal in my examples). Are our current laws fair ?

we know that from east to west and from north to south
= the food is different
=the language is different
=the dress code is differant
=the riligions are different
=the rituals and costoms are different
=and so on
there are a lot of problem if some one travels from here to there
to adjust and to adopt.
UNLIKE in USA every thing is standerd.

With obvious lack of respect for humanity pervading many governments and so few Humanists, will Humanists ever be able to affect change for the better?
