.... to a society, and for our society to condone homosexual relationships by allowing them to adopt children would hurt our societies morals, and be unfair to the child. A child growing up with homosexual parents would not have all the advantages that a child growing up with heterosexual parents would. A child is better off having a mother and a father, and it would be confusing to a child if he had two mothers or two fathers. The child’s parents would influence the child’s perception of normal and natural relationships. A child tends to imitate its parents this means a child that .....

.... as themselves. My position on this issue would have to be with the Canadians who don't believe in the government increasing the proportion of salaries to income tax. I believe every man for himself. What an individual earns, he deserves, because he worked hard for his pay. It's not that I don't agree with government intervention, I do, I just believe it should be trying to help its people become more independent, instead of 100% dependant on its government. For almost sixty years the Swedish economy was looked upon and admired for its high standard of living. Everything, you name it, they .....

.... Nations and one of the most influential, yet it has failed to take adequate state responsibility for human rights. Before tates can be discussed, the concept of state responsibility for human and civil rights must be clearly defined. The Merriam-Webster Dictionary defines state as "a politically organized body of people usually occupying a definite territory," and responsibility as "moral, legal, or mental accountability." These definitions of state and responsibility can be interpreted and combined to provide a literal definition of state responsibility. The definition of state responsibi .....

.... who suddenly found themselves homeless and jobless. The advent of the Second World War and the Korean War, however, once again heightened the American government’s desire to control public opinion so as to increase the effectiveness of the American war-machine. This time, the government’s more fervent and, even more relentless, attacks on foreign ideas reduced the membership and the prestige of the American Communist Party to a minimum, diminishing its political presence and influence. Although it would be foolish to maintain that the actions of the Soviet government in no way infl .....

.... the contemporary scene. The plant has been grown for fiber and as a source of medicine for several thousand years, but until 500~ AD its use as a mind-altering drug was almost solely confined in India. The drug and its uses reached the Middle and Near East during the next several centuries, and then moved across North Africa, appeared in Latin America and the Caribbean, and finally entered the United States in the early decades of this century. Marijuana can even be used as "Biomass" fuel, where the pulp (hurd) of the hemp plant can be burned as is or processed into charcoal, methanol, meth .....

.... value. From 1968 to 1989, politicians and true red blooded Americans understood how important it was to respect the American flag. Congress passed a law in which it prohibited desecration of the American flag in 1968. According to the law, it was illegal to cast contempt, either by word or act upon the American flag ((Federal law, 18 USC Sec. 700 States, 1968); Sec. 2(a). The law states that whoever knowingly casts contempt upon any flag of the United States by publicly mutilating, defacing, defiling, burning, or trampling upon it shall be fined, not more than $1,000 or imprisoned for not mo .....

.... it is morally right to subject our young to adult prisons. History shows thousands of years of serious tensions between children and parents. In the U.S., parents and children both complain that they receive no respect from each other. Yet mostly because of the spread of guns and drugs, younger and younger children are killing and being killed. Just recently there were several shootings involving children less than twelve years of age. According to children rights advocates, even in the most violent years in U.S. history, the rate of juvenile violence and victimization still do not equ .....

.... his view is very bias and provides argumentative grounds for the audience at hand. Earl Maucker has chosen to write about a controversial topic that is in the back of most reader’s minds. Therefore, it is not very hard for him to quickly gain the interest of several readers. However, his credibility is another issue. As a newspaper columnist for the Sun Sentinel, Maucker has minimal credibility. As an editor, he makes this very evident trough his use of bias opinions. He shows these one-sided beliefs through exerps like “In a grisly report” or “Just what Florida doesn� .....

.... her two children? How could someone possibly let her off the hook of such a crime? "All grandeur, all power, all subordination to authority rests on the executioner: he is the horror and the bond of human association. Remove this incomprehensible agent from the world and at that very moment order gives way to chaos, thrones topple and society disappears," says, Joseph de Maistre, an eighteenth century French Diplomat. He is right, if we give up on punishing a deadly criminal, then we throw our society into chaos and let the criminals freely do as they please. I would feel safe if I k .....
