What's the biggest ethical dilemma you have ever been in?

A thief who is in a terrible emotional state these days took stole something from me and informed me later. Should I report this to the authorities?

Shows like "Dinosaur Park" and there was one where probes were sent to an alien world to document alien life. Other than a few blurbs at the beginning about "imagination," these are presented as if they are real.

Several kids in the neighborhood believe that dragons are real after watching a Dragons World mockumentary. One kid thinks we've sent probes to alien planets and found life there after watching Alien Planet. A bunch of them think there's a group of people getting dinosaurs from the past and making a park to go there.

I like watching some of them with my kid because there is some science involved and it is interesting, but I am bothered that the Discovery Channel presents this stuff as if it's real to an audience that doesn't necessarily know how to tell when a documentary is factual or fictional.

Any other thoughts?

After you read it, you probably won't want to respond, because it's only popular to hate white people. This recieved NO MEDIA COVERAGE. Why is that?

I'm not asking you who you are voting for or for any political statements. I just want to know what the average person is going to be looking for in our next leader?

I'm of the opinion that there are a lot of people in this country (UK) who complain and moan when everything isn't 'just so'. The health service, taxes, public services... the attitude seems to be 'I deserve better'. A case in point - I was at a train station yesterday, at about half seven in the morning. A woman was 'disgusted' that the ticket office wasn't open and she had to use the machine - she was genuinely livid, as though her life had become quite unbearable. So I thought to myself 'No, it's not disgusting, it's mildly inconveinient. Poverty is disgusting, people being massacred is disgusting'.
So my point is - when you feel like you're being treated like a prince rather than a king, just remember how lucky you are.

I'm thinking that I'll probably sleep in a minutes, because it's already 02.48 am in here, and I'm sooooo sleppy that I could probably sleep for 12 hours.

why do so many people answer the question then proceed to give other free advice that has nothing to do with the question? shut the hell up. answer the question simply as posible and no more free advice.

Welfare is a benefit to an entitlement and while i do not begrudge it going to help people with genuine needs or who have earnt it (aged penioners, tpis and veterans affairs pensioners) I do feel that australia is creating a generation of welfare dependants with one generation breeding another generation thanks to the baby bonus, not to mention those who rort the system so they dont have to put in a days work and yet still get the money in their pockets, all these people should feel ashamed, I have known people with down syndrome and serious defects that still hold down a full time job and frankly I cant see how people with moderate disabilitys (ie depression and aniety etc) cant be placed at work places that are suitable for their conditions rather than being a burden on society in general. If not this then certainly there needs to be stricter testing to ensure that the right people (those who need it) get the welfare payments not those who are just to lazy to get a job.

I cannot but look in horror and despair at some of the questions posted in the "Society and Culture" forum. There are people slugging each other off on their skin colour or ethnicity. There is the eternal battle between Christian and Non-Christian and religion versus science. Are the people asking really wanting to know what others think, or are they just voicing out their opinions? Is this intolerance shown here reflective of todays reality?

I respect myself because;
* i dont give into peer pressure.
*i try not to judge people.
*i'm not easy.
*I think before i act.
*I respect my body.
*I dont do anything bad, to the point where i have regrets.
