Homosexual Marriage
.... of the same sex." Men and women are obviously biologically different. People of the same sex having intercourse goes against what is biologically natural. Part of the homosexual agenda is to make people believe that homosexuals are the same as heterosexuals when it comes to engaging in sexual behavior. This is absolutely not true. In his book **Cassel's Queer Companion, a Dictionary of Lesbian and Gay Life and Culture**, William Stewart describes some of the sexual activities that homosexuals practice. These include "fisting, when one partner shoves his whole hand up the anus of the other partner;" "rimming, when one p .....

Being Just Or Unjust
.... to act unjustly.
A harmony or moderation must be achieved for justice. Yet those ion the elite are at extremes and contain all four virtues. This is contrary to nature and because of this opposition by nature kalliopolis has several structural features that cannot be identical to the virtues of the soul. Each division of the soul must interconnect to form a harmonious whole just as each part of the society must interconnect naturally to be harmonious and just. However, to produce justice is to establish the parts of the soul in a natural relation of control and to produce injustice is to establish a relation of rulin .....

Three Ways To End Racial Discrimination
.... Asian children continue to learn and play together and racism will have no place in society.
Some argue that racism will not end, yet look at the deterioration over the past 200 years. With time America's decline of racism will continue. Jim Crow Laws prevented blacks from exercising their right to vote in the late 1800's. In 1964 Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., MLK, won the Nobel Peace Prize for leading a nonviolent fight for racial equality (New Student Bible 1180). At the turn of the new millenium a growth in interracial marriages and diversity in the school district are present. "In 1991 when I was entering into educatio .....

Marriage In Japan
.... done and now he considers himself as a head of his own family. In case of woman, it is difficult to keep her job after the marriage, because she needs to take care of her child, which is considered to be a wife¡¯s job. She has to do everything else except making money for the family, which makes her dependent on her husband who has the economic power. However in western culture, it is natural for both partners to have their own jobs and to be responsible for every single household job after marriage.
Until recently it has been true in Japan but now it is changing. More women have their jobs rather than prepare to be a bride after .....

America And The Camel
.... goes on to use a celebrity to sell their product. This is one aspect in history that we still see today. The employment of famous athletes to promote the sale of products is as big today, if not bigger, as it was in 1934. Today we see athletes such as Michael Jordan and Shaquille O’neal promoting such products as athletic equipment to batteries. Back then, as well as today companies knew that consumers would purchase items that were promoted by athletes more than the products that were not. Another detail in the advertisement that depicts 1934 is the lack of technology. The ad is mostly cartoon, all except for the two m .....

Skaters And Stereotypes
.... knowing they are going to go professional) never graduate high school. Kelly grew up in Florida all his life. He was a local hero in central Florida, because everyone knew he was destined to make it as a professional surfer (Tee Interview). From 1992 thru 1994 Kelly placed first in the Maui Pro, second in the Maui Masters, and third place in the Rip Curl Pro, the Chiemesee Pipe Masters, and the Gotcha Lacanau Pro (Solano1).

In 1996 Kelly was a busy boy, he won his fourth wor .....

The Importance Of Tradition In Belizean Society
.... they chased them out and became their own masters they adapted all the same customs that the humans had had. We rejected Europe's influence because we gained independence but we welcomed it from the US.
Most, if not all, of the ethnic groups in Belize abandoned their customs, traditions and blindly followed anything western.
Today the Mayas are the only ethnic group left in Belize that live almost exactly as they did fifty years ago, perhaps more. The Garifuna, also, hold strong to their culture and traditions but they do not use their traditional dress and today less and less young Garifunas are interested in inheriting .....

Losing Someone You Love
.... trapped in a maelstrom of anxiety long enough to do any personal damage to themselves. That is not the case with depression. Depression over loss can be a serious problem. In a healthy context, depression enables a person to work on issues of competence, value, and strength in the midst of loss. On the other hand, if left unchecked, it tends to work like a giant leech attached to the body, slowly draining all semblance of life from its victim. It is not easy to reach the surface, when drowning in a sea of depression. Suicidal thoughts may emerge from the deep, dark recesses of your mind and come forth to invade your san .....

Television In The 90’s
.... programming. They found that 61% of the programming contained some kind of violent act, with children’s shows being the most violent. Despite the publics concern with the violence, nothing in the media changed over the three year period. (Federman I,II,III) After researching ten years on the affects of violence, the fact is violence on television does lead to aggressive behavior by children and teens who watch the programs. (Smith)
Sexual references, innuendoes, and jokes which deal with abstinence, sexually transmitted diseases, birth control, or pregnancy, are viewed by teenagers thousands of times each year.(Harris) Prime tim .....

Racism
.... has a relatively innocent beginning. It was formed from some veterans from the confederate army and was first called the Kuklos Clan which, in Greek, meant Circle Clan.
One person thought it would be a good idea to call it the "Ku Klux Klan" as a parody of the fraternity names which always had three Greek alphabet letters in it. They created the Clan to be mischievous and to do it without anyone knowing who they were which accounts for their costumes and masks. They, like most whites, were upset that the black people were free because black people were a constant reminder of the bitter defeat of the South. So .....

Violence On Television
.... out of both of it parents.
Like I mentioned before violence, sex and other actions thought to be taboo by previous generations have made their way into our everyday life and thoughts throughout our new median of communications. Most of the things that are under fire by people have been around since the beginnings of humanity but people have been afraid to talk about these issues as if one is afraid to speak to someone for the first time. I believe that television has helped our society alot more than it is normally given credit for. For example in my grandparent's generation it would have been a sin to talk about sex. Thes .....

Domestic Abuse
.... abused by their husbands or families. These women suffer from many different types of domestic violence but the cause is just one— abuse.
Abuse happens to many women but most of the time it is not reported to the police. "Abuse is an underreported crime, it is underreported for two reasons: a) it occurs in the privacy of one’s home where there are typically no witnesses aside from family member’s to detect and report it and b) though violence is by no means restricted to the lower classes, middle- and upper class violence is likely to go unreported to the police" (Stets 3). Why it is not reported to the police could be .....
