    Zimbabwe

    Interesting. I also don't remember reading about any sort of giant organization comprised of 192 independent nations. You know, kind of like the United Nations. Do you remember such a thing? Well, regardless, such an organization exists now. Interestingly enough, one of their main objectives is...

    Name origins and their meaning

    "The Hebrew word sarah indicates a woman of high rank, and is sometimes translated as 'princess' or goddess, or 'high holy one'." I was Abraham's wife in the Bible. :monster: Sweet deal.

    Poll: Are you right-handed or left-handed

    I'm right handed...but it's kinda weird. I write like a left-handed person. It's hard to explain. I bend my elbow at a 90 degree angle to write. My teachers tried to correct it when I first started writing, but were never successful.

    How Many Languages Do You Speak?

    I speak English (duh), French, and Japanese. My French is slowly slipping away from me -__-. I probably couldn't speak to someone very well, but I can understand when people speak to me in French. I can also read it. Japanese....is a work in progress. I can read a bit more than 500 kanji, and I...

    Hate crimes

    Okay, I know it's nice to think "we are all equal", but that's just not realistically the case. We are NOT all equal. As long as racism exists, there will always be groups that are more vunerable to attacks. Your examples are, quite frankly, invalid. That's not how the law works. Courts don't...

    Gun Rights

    Kuja, not to be rude, but your arguments are so flawed, it makes my head spin. I can't even comprehend how you think what you're saying is logical. A crazy man killed a toddler? Here's a thought: if guns weren't readily available, he wouldn't have been able to OBTAIN a gun. Wow, see how...

    Zimbabwe

    Okay, what I think you're missing here is that war crimes, crimes against humanity, and genocide are all international crimes. This means that, yes, other countries CAN legally get involved. Other countries have the duty to get involved and end those crimes. The real problem is that the UN, the...

    How big of a national issue is education?

    America is still the largest, most powerful economy in the world. :monster: Followed by Japan and then Germany. Figure for you: The United States comprises 21% of the global economy. And while economics is CERTAINLY not my best subject, I am taking an international economics class, and from...

    Top ten arguments for the existence of God

    Just a question, but do atheists actually have lives? Or friends? I've seen so many of these, I'm ready to throw up. You know what's really fun? Trying to convince religious people that their beliefs are completely wrong. Oh wait, no, that's just really obnoxious. Seriously, are these people...

    Gun Rights

    Well, to be honest, after living in a nearly gunless society for several months, I can tell you I far prefer it. I feel much safer. I think the idea that we don't need more stringent gun control because some people 'like shooting for fun at shooting ranges' is possibly THE dumbest argument I've...

    Kids Growing up too Fast?

    You know, it's funny because you could be quoting some adults. Mental maturity/responsibility and physical maturity are not necessarily linked. I think that's an important point. Um, I'd also like to point something out. Treating children as we do today is a relatively new social...

    Erythritol's Art Thread

    Something I've been working on....I painted the face a while ago and put it down for some reason. I think I didn't like how it was turning out. Anyway, I picked it up again and finished it today. The look is based on ancient Chinese style. At least the hairstyle is. The hair ornaments....I just...

    Talking about people behind their backs

    Yeah, though it really begs the question of why people cannot just confront each other about their issues. Usually the gossip inevitably reaches the person, and of course, it does cause harm. No one likes to hear that their friends have been talking behind their back. I just don't understand why...

    Talking about people behind their backs

    I think it's safe to say we've all done it and experienced it. And usually it involves friends. Why do you think this sort of thing happens? What drives people to do this to friends? Personally I believe that it's a relatively childish thing to do, and those who do it have low self-esteem...

    Guys, Girls and Gender roles

    Yes, and it's COMPLETELY logical to base your opinion of an entire gender based on the actions of a few individuals. :neomon: Basically everything you have said in this and previous posts in this thread is completely ridiculous. Making sweeping generalizations about the female sex based on how a...

    Guys, Girls and Gender roles

    There are obvious physical differences between males and females. However, to say there are intellectual differences is absolutely absurd. Guys are more logical and stoic my ass. You are clearly generalizing and stereotyping. With the exception of the obvious hormonal differences in males and...

    Trendy Insults

    While it's true there are stereotypes for each country, the simple fact is no one really cares about the countries you've mentioned :monster: Sorry. Scotland and Germany are not world powers, nor are they nearly as prevalent in world politics. Additionally, neither country has a globally hated...
