Other - Society & Culture - 31 July 2007

In the last few weeks we have heard about numerous cases of parents killing their children. In the town i live in (jefferson city missouri) a father just shot his son twice and killed him for no reason. A women in the news had 4 babies who they found in/around her home, and another women left her children in a car for 15 hours, while she worked and then when they were dead put them under the kitchen sink and went to arbys. If God does exist, which i am starting to believe he does not, then why would he allow innocent children to die such horrible deaths. Why would he allow that to happen to anyone? Please dont give the answer of free will, thats a bunch of crap. God died to save us, but hes just as guilty as killing as the person who pulled the trigger. I am a emt student and the short amount of time i have spent on the ambulance so far has made me think twice about my faith. I also believe that everyone should be required to take a test before being aloud to have children?anyone agree

My parents tell me this all the time. In a nice way, trying to push me to change. People at work don't say it but i can see they feel like i'm a stupid crap because they all have conversations and i never say a word. I just keep working.

I enjoy learning things. AND doing things instead of talking and talking all the time. But society here in America doesn't accept it. It affects me and i feel like a failure because everything around me is pushing me to change but i don't like being talkative outgoing. i hate that.

Should i just commit suicide? or use a magic laser to wipe me oout...society here doesn't accept me so what the heck am i doing here.

And dont say you would just so ppl will think more of you, just tell the truth. Whether you would use them in order to wrongly get what you want, use them to help/save people/community, or simply not use them at all (other ideas are welcome) plz try to give a reason. thx

First thing first i would do is, help the charity, and the children around the world, especially in Africa, and then buy a house and a nice car for my mom my brother, and pay off my tuition, buy a big surprise present for my aunt (I love her the most event more than my mom) and save the rest for a special occasion, or in case of emergency, or help other, or help my mom run her own business, but I'm not stupid enough to dump my money into drug, or wild thing like Lindsay Lohan or Paris.
so back to the point.
what would you do if you got a 1million buck ?
(10 points for a good purpose)

I LIVE IN GRAND RAPIDS MICHIGAN. I'm only twleve years old but do not let my age fool you. I'm mature and responsible capable of doing anything I set my mind to, old enough to understand that I DON'T know everything, and smart enough to realize my full potential. I like to work, becaue it's not only fun to me but it gets me out of my house. Summers almost over and when I go back to school I'd like to go back with a little bit of money in my pocket. I'm not going to describe all the details as to what I need the money for just yet. Well, if you're hiring please reply to this, I REALLY need a job. I'm willing to do anything, anything that doesn't involve stupitity. oh, and I'm not selling drugs or myself so you can forget that but anything else, i'm your gal! PLEASE and thank you.

You proved me wrong, I asked you an honest question because my life is falling apart, I've thinking about death a lot, and 95% of you basically told me to go screw myself. Maybe no one can help, so why the hell bother...

Afterall 80% of all answers are not what you're looking for given by the ignorant who have no insight, not to mention nothing else to do but hang out at this website, prove what idiots they really are just so there friends can laugh at them. Even now because you are so shallow, you're thinking of a wiseass remark because you can't accept the fact you're little more than a parasite...

There's all this new stuff that's suitable for an office as well as school, and things are both dirt-cheap and super-cute during back to school season! I have absolutely no real need to shop back to school, but like getting new stuff at the office supply store then anyway. I also think it's a great time to stock up. How about the rest of y'all?

Well, do you think that the amount of sheer stupidity on Yahoo Answers is a reflection of our society or just the fact that stupid people gather here to ask questions BECAUSE they are stupid?

Discuss.

In my opinion the only group of people that have a right to complain are the First Nation People and they are not really complaning? In the beginning, First Nation People welcomed visitors with open arms. The trouble started when the visitors decided that they wanted to take over and destroy. And can you believe that they called First Nation People "savages!"

1) People act like racism, discrimination, CLASSISM, ageism, isn't a problem.

IT IS.

2) People pretend and act like humans are generally good people and what not.

Many aren't. Just b/c people LOOK nice, respectable or what not, they could be doing drugs, and be total scumbags.

3) People act like America, New York, Los Angeles are the places to be.

They're not. They're very full of crime, pollution, stress, nasty people with no morals, culture or class, and business/money rule everything. No one gives a hoot about the individual

There's more, but generally, why does everyone everywhere act like oh man it's all good, yeah, if you have problems, or complain, or see things DIFFERENTLYY,

you're depressed, or have a mental disease so you need help, so you can be happy.

LOL.

Happy?

With all thats really going on out there?

C'mon.

Does anyone else SEE this?

I mean I have nothing against being happy in life, but at the expense of ignorance of it all?

Should civil liberties and rights be overridden when national security is perceived to be at risk even when this is just suspicion (if thats how u spell it) and there is no real concrete evidence?

Seriously sh.it is going to hit the fan sooner or later...you guys took our nice communities and turned it into dangerous drug trafficking, violent ghettos. Enjoy your time in America, because sometime in the future, whether its 10 years from now, 20 years, or 50 years...it will happen. These are white countries, founded by white people and you guys take our free nations for granted.

Ok. I been dating this Nigerian man. Same story. Told me he wanted to be with me after the 1st date. The only difference is, in addition to that, he spent a lot of money on me too. Probably to woo me in.
Anyhow, after months of dating, he got me to feel bad for him. His brother was coming out here from Nigeria, but could only bring a certain amount of money into the country. This is where I came in: He needed me to go with him to Western Union to GET the money his brother was sending from Nigeria. $6000 worth. I was asked to do it a 2nd time, but I DID NOT. I felt too uncomfortable and shouldn't have done it the first.
Is that some sort of scam or anything? Yes, I had to provide Western Union with certain pieces of my info to get the money FROM Nigeria No, I would NEVER give him a check or any money to SEND to Nigeria. I just recieved it. He's never asked me for any money... Is recieving money from Nigeria through Western Union something I should be worried about
