.... are absolutely poor are relatively poor. These types of poor are found all throughout the world especially in underdeveloped countries. In the United States a advanced well-developed country both absolute and relative poverty are present throughout the country. I think that absolute poverty has no beneficial purposes to society. However, relative poverty does have beneficial functions. I think that relative poverty can make people competitive. It would do this because people always try to do better then the people around them. This competitiveness might force people to work overtime or even two jobs in order to make mo .....

.... eighteen. Dillon decided to get a tattoo. He spent countless hours deciding on the design he wanted. Then, he visited some of the local tattoo parlors. He wanted to check the atmosphere and cleanliness of each environment. Finally he came to a place where he felt secure and satisfied with the artist’s work. Dillon spent the next few days deciding if this was what he really wanted. Taking into consideration that the tattoo would be everlasting, he carefully decided upon where he wanted it placed. Less than a week later he returned to the parlor, excited and nervous. He wasn’t quite sure he was ready for the commit .....

.... my career is by knowing and being friends with a lot of people. The practical side of life is based on interpersonal relationships. Whether it be social or business, communicating with people is the only way to get things done. There is no way that you can go through life in today's society without getting along with people. If people think that you are immoral, than they will not respect you, or be willing to work with you. Again, it may seem like it is not fair because you know that no one is one hundred percent moral, and if someone doesn't respect you because you are immoral, than they are hypocritical. But, when it comes .....

.... may be at a disadvantage to a child like my brother who is getting the same social education from my parents and the society we live in. Charles Harton Cooley also touched on the idea of identities. He believed that identities are formed from interactions with people in society. This would mean that the more interactions one has the more choices that have to form there own identity. In a sense my upbringing and my brother's can be dangerous in a way because our parents have to be careful not to shelter us too much form parts of society. Otherwise we create one sided identities and opinions of ourselves and others. I feel that .....

.... has made the one superior to the other."(Q4:34) Women are thought of as being lower in intellect and spirituals in comparison to men. In the Quran it states, "And of His signs is that He created for you, of yourselves, spouses, that you may repose in them."(Q 30"21) This causes many Muslims to look at women as creations like the animals and plants and other useful things created by Allah. Muslims believe that women are lacking many of the traits that men possess. The believe that women are lacking gratitude as well as intelligence. The Hadith speaks of this subject saying, "Women are ungrateful to their husbands and are un .....

.... consumption, and alcohol was beginning to be blamed for many social problems of the period. Temperance groups, such as the one in Lynn, Massachusetts, began to form and lobby for prohibition (Faler 369). Here, a group called The Society for Industry, Frugality and Temperance was formed. They believed, as did all other temperance groups, that the large amount of alcohol consumed, mostly by the male population, was a danger to society and was the cause of numerous social problems (Moloney 11/10/97). The major social argument was religious based. Many religious groups stated “that ‘soldiers of the cross’ should lead blam .....

.... by sensing ripples in their area with special sense organs on their body. Birds also seem to use the magnetic lines of the earth to navigate south for the winter each year. It would be foolish to make the statement that all sensory perception of the world is circumspect and is exactly the same for all creatures. All animals on the planet earth live in a hermeneutic spiral meaning that we all live in the past. Humans as with other animals can only sense a cause after it has made an effect. The assumption is made that if we sense an effect there must therefore be a cause, which leads to a naïve realism of perception .....

.... the norm. Uniforms in schools especially can have a number of affects on the behavior and how they can be monitored. The number of violent and theft crimes that go on in school will drop tremendously. Fights among students over designer clothing and sneakers will be no more. Children who are more needy then others will not have to feel the competion amongst them if everyone is wearing the same clothes. It will also instill discipline in the students. School officials will no longer tolerate inappropraite sayings and pictures on shirts. Most importantly for inner city schools, uniforms will help detect when a non-student is i .....

.... that foster care is preferred over transracial adoption. The reason being the children and youth services would rather put a black child in foster homes of that race instead of letting a white couple adopt it because they are white. They believe that putting a black child in white family would culturally damage that child, that they would grow up not knowing their heritage. They believe that a parent of a different race is not as equipped to educate a child about issues of their racial identity(McNair 1). They do not realize putting a child through years of moving from foster home to foster home would damage them because th .....
