.... if this indeed is not fufilling some immediate obvious desire it is accomplishing some sort of other goal. Likely this goal is to achieve an education but again we might ask ourselves why? Surely we all want to further our scholarly qualities and develop our minds but more likely this again has an underlying goal: to succeed in society. Society has shown us that in most cases it requires a good deal of education in order to succeed. Therefore we might entertain the question, is our presence here a product of our own desires or that of society's? The point of this reasoning is only to point out something we may not i .....

.... 31). Through chants which were all the same, they spread identical teachings. Christian psalms and hymns in Apostolic times were sung to spread the knowledge and faith of Christianity. In fact, Christianity was promoted from the start by music. Churches were for long the only centers of learning, with monks teaching all lessons through music (Young 39). Through the use of sacred music, monks and clergy successfully spread the teachings of their religions in a practical manner. Entertainers used the theater as a place to tell the stories of the day, both fictional and topical. The African oral tradition was rich in folk tal .....

.... really find the stupid people. Many of them seem totally clueless to their own ignorrance. If , than these people must really be happy. Television is definately not the only place to run into stupid people however. In business class we had an assignment to read and discuss an article titled, "Fatal Attractions". The article discussed the four August deaths of rollercoaster riders. It discussed the reasons for these incidents, settlements recieved by the families, and further impacts the deaths had on amusement parks nationwide. It seemed as if the whole country was freaking out about these incidents. It is not as if the .....

.... viewing does affect children. The effects have been seen in a number of cases. In New York, a 16-year-old boy broke into a cellar. When the police caught him and asked him why he was wearing gloves he replied that he had learned to do so to not leave fingerprints and that he discovered this on television. In Alabama, a nine-year-old boy received a bad report card from his teacher. He suggested sending the teacher poisoned candy as revenge as he had seen on television the night before. In California, a seven-year-old boy sprinkled ground-up glass into the lamb stew the family was to eat for dinner. When asked why he did it he replie .....

.... to that group, and therefore presumes to have the objectable qualities ascribed to that group'(Lang)23" The most common way prejudice works is by stereotyping people, that is putting everyone form the same ethnic group together and assuming they all have the same negative characteristics or behave in the same way.

In 1989-1991, a study done by Southern Poverty Law Center in Birmingham, Alabama, recorded an increase .....

.... peers at maximum rate. The Japanese strive for equality. They recognized how hard a student can work and how fast he can learn. The student can take entrance exams. Bright, hard-working students that come from poor families have a better chance of being admitted to elite schools than average students with rich families. The Japanese education system works in many ways. Even though it is hard and long hours are put in to learning, the suicide rate is low. Everyone in Japan has a chance of learning, and if he works hard enough he can prosper in life. The success of Japan and other countries lies in the education of it .....

.... slaves in our own country. This country has been suppressing the liberties of people through their thwarting of protests and demonstrations that supposedly “posed a threat” to the public. This suppression has been a violation of the liberties of the people and is making the American people slaves of the government. 2. Not only do people have the liberty to be kind to others, but also unfortunately they have the liberty to hate. “One of the hallmarks of a totalitarian society is the imprisonment of individuals for their ideas.” (Huxtable, 1998) In a free and just society, if you commit a crime, you are punish .....

.... compliment of ask someone out on a date. The law says nothing about dating in the workplace if it is done in a reasonable and respectful manner with employee’s wishes. Dating in the workplace is not against the law if both people accept it. Something else that is misleading people think that all is welcome as long as there is no physical contact with each other in the work place. That of course is not true. To be sexual harassed can stem from verbal to physical. In fact most sexual harassment cases are verbal and they are still offensive and intruding and illegal. (Morris 34/35) Why do people sexually harass others? .....

.... exact situation is known to break 4 out of 10 marriages in the U.S. today. (Los Angeles Times) The last thing any happily married couple wants is to end up in a divorce court over an issue such as this one. By living together first, is one possible way of avoiding a situation like this. Another example would be if any young lady were to marry a totally housebroken mama’s boy. Being a mama’s boy is something a guy would not just admit to. That’s usually that is only viewed by other people. But once they are married he’s probably going to expect for her to cook, clean, do the laundry and do all the planning for the both of th .....

.... get? A ticket to a high security prison, full of rapists, pedaphiles and others of their kin, ready to further pervert them and make them more efficient and darken their souls, or rape, sodomise and kill them for being the new arrivals. We blame the gun, we blame society, we blame the parents of the child, who really deserves it? Who should the blame fall upon, and who should decide what happens to the juviniles? Should these children, the future of our nation, be left to rot in federal prisons to be perverted by the most massocistic and sociophatic minds in the country? Placed safely out of sight, away from the eyes of the gen .....
