why cann't people see that,

with out ugliness there can never be beauty.

with out pain there can never be healing.

with out mistakes there can be no forgiveness.

with out sadness there can never be joy.

with out hate there can never be love.

with out the storm there can never be a rainbow.

twice exceptional

2007-02-02T06:38:00.000-08:00

this is a essay i did for school, it came out pretty good and i am proud of it. tell me what you think

Mark Twain once said “I never let my schooling get in the way of my education”. What if schools were places were children could be truly educated? Schools wrongly assume that if a child simply tries, they can all learn in the same way. The truth is every person is different, and what works for some kids, will never work for others. If Schools cannot adjust their ways, they will doom large groups of people to fail in school. One group that is neglected by the school system are Twice Exceptional children. This is a group of students who are highly intelligent but also have a learning disability. In schools need to create programs were these students can archive to there abilities.

Most people have heard the term ‘failing genius’ and scoffed at the oxymoron it presents. For Twice-Exceptional students though, this cliché applies to their lives. Their are countless stories were a child will be failing every class in school but when tested they have an IQ over 130. (LDonline.org). How can someone be so smart, yet fail there classes. The simple truth is that they are bored. Students who go unchallenged in school can never live up to their potential. Twice-Exceptional programs will allow these ‘failing geniuses’ to excel in school and later in life.
“Failing is the hardest thing in the world because it forces you to look at your self as a failure.”(Anonymous) Failures in schools often send Twice-Exceptional into emotional turmoil. They also begin to adapt anti social behaviors because, they have so little in common with their peers. Feelings of depression and low self-esteem begin to accrue. A program created to fit their needs would give them a place to belong and a group of understanding peers they can relate to.
In addition, Twice-Exceptional children are prone to childhood delinquency due to boredom and depression, caused by the lack of programs for them. Rebellion is common against authority figures, especially teachers, because of the lack of understanding and respect they give to students. Disruption of classes and questioning authority becomes a hard habit to brake, often haunting them for the rest of there life. Creating a positive channel for creativity and energy can stop these acts of disobedience.

There in no logical reason why Twice-Exceptional students do not receive the programs they need other then its expense. Twice-Exceptional students only make up only two to five percent of students in public schools. (Counseling the Gifted and Talented) Though experts believe that number is underestimated, this has not prompted schools to spend the thousands of dollars needed for specialized teachers and psychologists. Society cannot afford to lose another Einstein. Programs need to be instituted for Twice-Exceptional students, regardless of the cost.

Every one deserves to live up to their potential and have the best life possible. Twice-Exceptional programs will allow students to live up to their ability becoming successful members of society. These programs are the only way society can prevent people who think like Leonardo de Vinci from working as a waitress. It is the responsibility of the educational system to teach children in ways they can understand, even if it is unconventional.

the hardest thing to watch

2006-12-11T07:00:00.000-08:00

the worst thing in the world is when you see a incredibly smart, gifted person who does not expand there banks of knowlage. people think that just because they have good ideas that everyone will believe them. smart people need to realive that they neeed to support there ideas with evidence or extremly sound logic, that no one could punch wholes in. there is nothing worse when people have ideas about science, with no scientific evidence. education and reading is importent because you can support your ideas, and not sound ignorrent.

a late night thought

2006-11-02T11:43:00.000-08:00

if light is the absence of darkness,
then is love the absence of hate?

i think it might be a bit deeper then that.
tell me what u think

If you could blow up the world with the flick of a switchWould you do it?
If you could make everybody poor just so you could be richWould you do it?
If you could watch everybody work while you just lay on your backWould you do it?
If you could take all the love without giving any backWould you do it?
And so we cannot know ourselvesOr what we'd really do with all your power

With all your power
With all your powerWhat would you do?
With all your powerWith all your powerWith all your powerWhat would you do?

If you could make your own money and then give it to everybodyWould you do it?
If you knew all the answers and could give to the massesWould you do it?

Are you crazy?It's a very dangerous thing to do exactly what you wantBecause you cannot know yourself, or what you'd really doWith all your power

drugs

2006-09-23T06:47:00.000-07:00

there is a reason people do drugs, which can not be explaned by the words of the user. the reason people do drugs is not only for the pleusere of excaping but it comes from a humans need to be loved. these people were either neglected as a child by either there parents or peer group. when i say neglected i do not always mean phycical abuse, i mean the emotional neglect or misunderstanding of a person. ever human being at some point in there life has gone through this weither they acknolege it or not. the reason that people turn to a life style of drugs is that they have no way of deeling with this neglect and they have this need to fit in somewere. this is the reason people who belong to orginized religiouns tend not do drugs, it is not all because they have a god telling them not to, it is because they have a support system to deel with this hurt. this is also the reason drug users start in there early teens, or even before that. they want a place to belong in the grand skeem of the soical class system that is begining to be astablished. this is also the age were people begin to rebel against there parents, so they can not longer be in a position of emotional support.

the common places were you see obsesive drug us is in children whose parents are part of the working class, were the parents need to work leaving the children alone at a early age or in the upper middle class to elite, were parents become to obsesed with money to have a deep conection to there children. this leads to the neglect of a childes emotion needs, and not in a position to help with emotional trama that is commonly faced at this age.

drugs creat a sociaty, complete with a "family",peeking order, and strict rules. when i refure to a family, i am talking about the close friends that look out for each other, preventing them from being hurt and/or cought. they help with hurt with the only way they know how, being there and masking them with drugs.(this easly turns into a snow balling effect).
there is also a well established peeking order based on honor,loyalty,witt,and a conections(who they know and how easy it is to get"shit"). this can give people a way to rise up in when in the legal world they could never better themselves.
there is one rule that can never be forgotten in the underground never "rat"someone else, even if it means taking the punishement your self. this loyalty and honor has been lost in the modern world. this is the only comendable aspect of the drug culture, and needs to be understude if we want to stop the spread of drugs.

drugs are addictive, not only physically but becuase of the sence of belong to that societly. this sence of belonging why they started and why a individual stays in this culture even if they lose everything because of it. people become addicted to exceptence.

ever have on of those days

2006-09-19T14:12:00.000-07:00

a day that feels like a dream,like any second the alarm clock will ring and save you.

a day were you see, you hear, you listen but you are really not there. you are traped in your oun thoughts.

when you feel like you have borrowed someone else's reality.

when you envy a tree, because at least it has a perpose, to give shelter to all life. and what is the perpose of humans to distroy that very life.

when you contimplate rythem of the heart; a second can change everything.

you think about a life time, in the grand skeem of things our lives mean nothing. we are but fillers of space and time.

you start to feel lost, and confused;could anyone else feel the same.

you feel alone.

you see feel like you are traped in a pink floyd song.

at this moment you wish that you could step out of the cave and see the world as it really is. but we cann't, we are chained to the floor of the cave.

then for some reason you snap out of it unchanged ever have on of those days.

ignorance

"if you swear that there is no truth and who cares, how come you say it like you are right."~bright eyes

complex human thought is the sole seperation between us and the animal world. ignorence is no defence. we must open our minds to new ideas, these are the ideas are what keeps us human!!!

a common question

2006-09-09T04:52:00.000-07:00

my parents asked me last night, why don't you use your mind?

the simple answer is, "its in the water,see it swimming"

so ya i found this picture on google and it kinda looks like a brain in water if u sqint. ya i am easly amused.

nietzsche is right

2006-09-06T10:10:00.000-07:00

It was Nietzsche who warned us, at the end of the 19th century, not only that God is dead but that "faith in science, which after all exists undeniably, cannot owe its origin to a calculus of utility; it must have originated in spite of the fact that the disutility and dangerousness of the 'will to truth,' of 'truth at any price' is proved to it constantly." It is this further danger that we now fully face - the consequences of our truth-seeking. The truth that science seeks can certainly be considered a dangerous substitute for God if it is likely to lead to our extinction.

they

2006-09-03T16:03:00.000-07:00

who are they?
where are they?
and how do they know all this?
why do we live like this?
is it because ignoorence is bliss?
i am sorry we do this?

pain

2006-09-01T10:30:00.000-07:00

It's not true that life is one damn thing after another; it is one damn thing over and over.
~Edna St. Vincent Milly
we get get stuck. when one thing bad thing happenes we get stuck on it get depressed;becuase we are depressed we do stupid things and surround our selves who hurt us more. people need to learn to let go. this stoped the cycle of pain.

random quotes that make me think

2006-07-01T16:34:00.000-07:00

That which is static and repetitive is boring. That which is dynamic and random is confusing. In between lies art."

The knack of flying is learning how to throw yourself at the ground and miss.~hhgg

The nine most terrifying words in the English language are, 'I'm from the government and I'm here to help.'

Be thankful we're not getting all the government we're paying for. Will Rogers

You can't separate peace from freedom because no one can be at peace unless he has his freedom. Malcolm X,

The mystery of government is not how Washington works but how to make it stop. P. J. O'Rourke

To fear love is to fear life, and those who fear life are already three parts dead.

All love that has not friendship for its base, is like a mansion built upon sand.

There is always some madness in love. But there is also always some reason in madness.

Be courteous to all, but intimate with few, and let those few be well tried before you give them your confidence. True friendship is a plant of slow growth, and must undergo and withstand the shocks of adversity before it is entitled to the appellation.

The friendship that can cease has never been real.

He felt that his whole life was some kind of dream and he sometimes wondered whose it was and whether they were enjoying it.

Death is more universal than life; everyone dies but not everyone lives.

Death is nothing to us, since when we are, death has not come, and when death has come, we are not.
It is impossible that anything so natural, so necessary, and so universal as death, should ever have been designed by Providence as an evil to mankind.

Never knock on Death's door: ring the bell and run away! Death really hates that!

love

2006-06-24T10:44:00.001-07:00

love ( P ) Pronunciation Key (lv)n.

1A deep, tender, ineffable feeling of affection and solicitude toward a person, such as that arising from kinship, recognition of attractive qualities, or a sense of underlying oneness.

2A feeling of intense desire and attraction toward a person with whom one is disposed to make a pair; the emotion of sex and romance.
a Sexual passion.
b Sexual intercourse.
c A love affair.

4An intense emotional attachment, as for a pet or treasured object.

5A person who is the object of deep or intense affection or attraction; beloved. Often used as a term of endearment.

this is how the dictionary defines love. but what is it. in national geographic there is a old artical that says that the reason why when we are in love we do things that we never would normally do is because love effects the caudate nucleus, the part of the brain that has a dense consintration of dopamine (a monoamine C8H11NO2 that is a decarboxylated form of dopa and occurs especially as a neurotransmitter in the brain and as an intermediate in the biosynthesis of epinephrine, so in other words dopamine is chemical in your brain that helps creates epinephrines, epinephrines are a feel good chemical, they also cause release from stress, they also can increase heart beat, and increase blood pressure. so science has again lowered human emotions to chemical reactions.

it is understandable that the feelings of love come from chemical reactions in the brain. but science has not explained why the feelings of love accure. (science has alot of problems with that question, why) many people will say that love is caused so that we feel close to our mate, and reproduce with them. but erotic love is not the only kind of love out there.

there are 4 different of loves, according to CS Lewis. there is:

affection:is a fondness throught familiarity, especially between family members or people who have otherwise found themselves together by chance.

Friendship:is a strong bond existing between people who share a common interest ot activity.lewis explicitly says that his definition of friendship is narrower then mere companionship.

eros: is love in the sense of being "in love". this is distinct from sexuality,which lewis calles venus. he worns us not to raise love to the level of a god but praises it as an indifferent appreciation of the beloved as opposed to any pleasure that can be obtained from them.

charity: is a love toward one's neighbour which does not depend on any loveable qualities that the object of love possesses.

all these loves can not be explained by science. love is more then sexual attraction, love is a greater thing then mere chemical reactions in the brain. love is the thing that seperates us from aniamls.

censorship

2006-06-20T19:56:00.000-07:00

censorship, is the most dehumanizing, oppressive act that has ever been suppoerted by the genaral population. this single act limits creativity and forses people to fit into "the box". we censor things because we want to inforse our personal morality on others, even if they uphold differnet morals. our government was built on the belief that humans have the right to there own opponions and they had the right to share these oppinions with others, that is why they created the bill of rights so that the united states government could never take away the natrual rights of humans. censorship is the worst crime against these an individues natraul right to expression. the government needs to stop censoring information, art and entertainment. if people do not want to see, hear or read surtine things they need to turn off there tvs, and choose differnet music. the government should not have have to spend its time doing something that individuals should do for them selves

rocks and humans

2006-06-18T18:35:00.000-07:00

science has proven that humans are made up of the same atoms as rocks, animals, and plants. there is on problem, how do rocks animals and humans become rocks animanls and humans. what i am trying to say is how come we all look like we came from the same mold if we were created randomly.

think about this. immagin all atoms are legos. you can make anthing out of legos, a horse, a tree ect. but when you shake a box of legos, you get a box of shaken legos. you need to take them out and make a horse. it can not happen accidently. when you think about it, using this imagry, it is not likely that all things were created on accident.

HEL-MART

2006-06-15T07:45:00.000-07:00

ALWAYS LOW ETHICS

wal mart is taking over the world. in Rhode Island alone there is 1 super store, 7 Discount Stores, and 1 sam's club. this is the smallest state in the country and Wal-Mart has 9 stores. there are 1,209 Wal-Mart Discount Stores in the U.S., 1,980 Wal-Mart Supercenters, 101 Neighborhood Markets, and 567 Sam's Clubs. the number of square feet cover by walmart, in the us, would be 120,900,000+370,260,000+434,300+7,2576,000. the final number of square feet is, (drum roll)564,170,300. this is how much space wal mart takes up in our county alone. and these figures are from january 1, 2005, it got bigger.

"we don't know how it happened, but one thing is for sure, we are all wal mart's bitches"~the unites states of wal mart.

human nature

2006-06-12T17:25:00.000-07:00

One of the things Ford Prefect had always found hardest to understand about humans was their habit of continuously stating and repeating the very very obvious, as in It's a nice day, or You're very tall, or Oh dear you seem to have fallen down a thirty-foot well, are you all right~hitch hickers guide the galexy

this is so true!!!!! i was once siting in the hospital and the nurse comes in and says "how are you?" pauline was laying on a hospital bed, afraid she might have to have surgury and she said "how are you". how you think she was. humans for the most part a very stupid. most of our thought are on the surface of things, with no meaning at all. there is nothing more to our conversations then events and people. i can honestly think of 5 friends that i have deep meaningful conversation. this is out of my whole life. i think we need to be open to shareing our ideas on "the question, of life the universe and everything"HHGG.
so please peopel, blog, create art, and THINK.

my right to die

2006-06-12T16:56:00.000-07:00

i believe that all people have the right to live peacefully and die peacefully. but the governments has now taken away our right to rest in peace with a death tax. a tax on dead people!!! they there estateand from a grieving, who could probably us the money to pay hospital and funaral costs. this tax can be up to 55% on large estates. 55%!!!! this tax needs to be droped, we are taxing dead people. people say that we need the money, but we need to cut the government programs that are not helping the people and wasting tax money.

time

2006-06-11T10:19:00.000-07:00

we all get so caught up with the question, how did it all begin. (i am to excluded from this i do it all the time as you all know). but the thing is what if time was not linear. it was infact circlar. this would explain why we can not figure out "how it all began". when you look at natrue you see circles, things are born,the grow,they give birth, they die and they fertilize new life. our season are also a big circle, the same patern is repeated, spring, summer,fall,and winter. the moon also changes along natral, repeating cycles.it is plausible that time could take this same pattern. the universe could be in a constant state of fluctuation, just like nature. the universe could have no begin and no final end, it simply follows the same natral patterns found on earth.

my brother

2006-06-09T07:15:00.000-07:00

i am so proud, last night my brother made his first deep thought. it was so powerful, creative amd has prefound implications. he said, you can not see ever side of the dimond when u take a picture. this was said when we were talking about the bible and how often it is miss interprided. peopel ofter take one versue out of context and us that to back up there statement that goes againt what the bible actually says. (i am not a christen but come from a christen home, we talk about these thing) what he menat by his statement, that you can not see truth if you do noyt look at the big picture. james i have never been so proud of you.

do things change?

2006-06-06T16:45:00.000-07:00

painting by Josephine Wall, one of my faverite artists.

i honestly do not know. this is my thought proses about the subject. i am pyhsically changing, i do not look the same as i did 3 years ago, but in a way i have not changed if u saw a picture of me 3 years ago and of me now u can tell it is the same person. but am i the same person, yes and no. i am still hunted by the same character flaws, and emotions, i am still bothered by the same things. but how i react to these things has changed. but in a way they have not, i still cry, i still scream, i still need a hug when something is bothering me. and for the most part i go to the same people, my parents and friends, though my friends have changed. i have changed and in a way i have not.

i look at nature and it is in constrant change. things are always being born,growing and dieing. but they always stay on the same corse summer always turns to autum, autum to winter. that always stays the same. people also follow this patern. everything does.

but we have new technology, we can change things in nature. people in other times did not have this ability. we now have new trasportation, new sounds, new ways to kill. but we still move, we still listen and we still kill. we are still human.but we have become more powerful, but in a way we have always had power.

we are in a constant state of change but this change follows a pattern that never changes.

confusion

2006-06-06T16:04:00.000-07:00

Confusion is a word we have invented for an order which is not understood.
~Henry Miller

confusion is the natral state of humanity. this is because we are all confused, all the time. even if we do not realize it, we are confused. we never really know anything for certain. all we do is guess, most of the times these are not even educated quesses. they are mearly guesses. these guesses are ment to give us temperary satisfaction. but if we think about them too long we see the flaws in our arguments. these guesse fill the void inside, help stop the confusion. but in reality they can make us even more confused. confusion is the natral state of humans. it is also the natral state of humans to find some form of truth because we are uncomfortable in our state of confusion.

i love u

2006-06-05T13:45:00.000-07:00

i want to do a shoot out to all the people who are moving this year. pauline i love u my german sister, heather so cool i love u so much my fellow deep thinking friend, and eric who i love so much u are liek my brother, known u for so long, but u are not really moving that far away. but to pauline and heather, i love u both so much and i want tones of cals and emails.

WHY?

2006-06-03T20:07:00.000-07:00

the hardest question to anwer is why? it is so hard that we never ask it in a meaningful way. we learn at a very young age to stop asking why. when ever we are with a child between the ages of 2 and 3 we get exsasted by there constant wondering. they always want to know, why?soon we get sick of this and simply say because that is the way is, or because i said so. before kindergardan children learn to stop asking the simplest question, why? by the time we grow up we get so consumed by everyday life that we lose our sence of wonder, we forget to ask, Why? we need to be like a child, we have discover new things and to ask simple questions, with out being scared of the response we need to ask our selves WHY?

slavery

2006-05-27T13:45:00.000-07:00

none are more hopelessly enslaved then those who falsely beleive that they are free - Goethe

Man is born free, but everywhere he is in chains. ~Jean Jacques Roussear

we are free from the moment we are born. it is society that keeps us enslaved. this is because we feel the need to conform to sociel norms. we learn to forget out our individualty. when we are children we are free, we dance around naked, speak too loud, we say what we are really thinking. by the time we are 3 that we have to were cloths, we have to us "indoor voices", and that we have to filter what we think. we willing become slaves, through indoctranation by our parents, schools, even children our own age. we learn pride,intolorance, arrogrance,ect.we loss our selves, and our humanism.
we must learn to free our selves from this self inflicted slavery. We must learn to let our selves be free. I am not saying that we should abandon all social rules. but we need to realive the existence of these prison walls and find away to brake out and find our selves. our raw human nature. and someway share this raw self with others. once we strip masks we can truely be free.

laughter

2006-05-26T12:43:00.000-07:00

we laught when things are funny, most of the time. but we often us laughter as a mask, a mask to hide our discomfort and pain. we us laughter as a way of diflecting our emotions. we laugh because it is a safe action for us. we know that if we laugh that we will be exsepted, peopel will think we are funny and outgoing. we laugh even though we are braking inside. We think that if we cry or yell people will think we are weird. we fear rejection. Soon we begin to lie to our selves.

We need to share our emotions with those we trust. We must learn how to cry, scream. This is the only way we can understand our selves, and the world around us. Be true with your self and you will soon find truth.

here are some actual label instructions on consumer goods.
1. On Sears hairdryer: “Do not use while sleeping”. (Gee, that’s the only time I have to work on my hair)

2. On a bag of Fritos: “You could be winner! No purchase necessary. details inside”. (Evidently, the shoplifter special)

3. On a bar of Dial soap: “Directions: Use like regular soap.” (And that would be how. . . ?)

4. On some Swanson frozen dinners: “Serving suggestions: Defrost.” (But it’s *just* a suggestion)

5. On Tesco’s Tiramisu dessert (printed on bottom of box): “Do not turn upside down”. (Oops, too late!)

6. On Marks & Spencer Bread Pudding: “Product will be hot after heating”. (As night follows the day . . . .)

7. On packaging for a Rowenta iron: “Do not iron clothes on body”. (But wouldn’t this save even more time?)

8. On Boot’s Children’s Cough Medicine: “Do not drive a car or operate machinery after taking this medication”. (We could do a lot to reduce the rate of construction accidents if we could just get those 5-year-olds with head-colds off those forklifts.)

9. On Nytol Sleep Aid: “Warning: May cause drowsiness”. (One would hope)

10. On most brands of Christmas lights: “For indoor or outdoor use only”. (As opposed to what?)

11. On a Japanese food processor: “Not to be used for the other use”. (I gotta admit, I’m curious).
12. On Sainsbury’s peanuts: “Warning: Contains nuts”. (NEWS FLASH)

13. On an American Airlines packet of nuts: “Instructions: Open packet, eat nuts.” (Step 3: Fly Delta).

14. On a child’s Superman costume: Wearing of this garment does not enable you to fly”. (I don’t blame the company, I blame parents for this one).

15. On a bottle of Palmolive Dishwashing liquid: “Do not use on food.” (Hey mom we’re out of syrup! ; It’s ok honey just grab the Palmolive!)

16. On a tube of Crest Toothpaste: “If swallowed contact poison control.” (Oh please have you ever heard about someone dying from swallowing a little toothpaste?)

17. On a bottle of ALL laundry detergent. “Remove clothing before distributing in washing machine.” (Hey no more swimming in the washing machine kids....Aww you mean we have to use the swimming pool?)

..... wow...... i feel smart. this is worse then the new warning signs "warning our coffee is hot"
main text from www.iamstrange.com

this is what our government now has to spend it time doing. creating laws to protect idiots. i wonder how much money companies could save if they did not have to put warning lables on everything. how about only putting it on things that could actualy hurt you, such as poinson. all i have to say is that our days are numbered as the smartest animals on earth. our minds are being rotted by tv and the media. i believe that soon rabbits will take over our world, with there super intellegence. hey you never now, i could happen. we are lossing IQ points like crazy.

we do not have to see something to know if it is there. we can see the effects of it around us. we can not see the wind but we know it is were. we can feel it. that is how we know that there is something greater out there. becauce we can feel the effects of it. We can see the shadow.

what is life?

2006-05-07T15:39:00.000-07:00

the dictionary diffines life as~The property or quality that distinguishes living organisms from dead organisms and inanimate matter, manifested in functions such as metabolism, growth, reproduction, and response to stimuli or adaptation to the environment originating from within the organism.

but it has to be more to that. what does it mean to live. life can not just be the abstince of death. if it is then what is death. is there a universal deffinision of life. can life in terms of a single celled orginism be different from human life. it is different, extremly different. they are lead by the need to survive and to pass along there race. so are we, but we are still completely different. we are lead by emotions,by our feelings. by loneliness,the need for a place to belong, our doubts, hatred and love.

these emotions can not be rationalived, not by science or by logic. they are the most primitive and most evenced element on earth. emotion is what makes us different from all other beings on earth.

the big bang,creation theory, and the 4th

2006-05-02T07:48:00.000-07:00

can both the teorys be true? i think maybe they can be. there are 4 known dementions, space langht width hight and the forth which is time. But when u think about it is it possible for gravity to also be in the forth demention. gravity is much like time we have a name for it, it effects our lives and world, but we still do not understand it. Time is the same way. i think it would be safe to say that gravity and time are both part of the 4th demention. Time had to pressent when the big bang happened, unlike what most scientist believe. because it had to start expanding in time had to be present. also in the big bang theory gravity was present. Scince ignoleges that fact.
If both these forces were persent and active, and in the same demention then i believe that there could easly be more dementions out there. We can only perseave the first 3 and we interact with the 4th, i believe that it is highly plasible that there are more dementions then we can interrprete. we are only human. I believe that in one of those dementions there is a higher power, and the astro plain. i believe that we can not picture god as in heaven on the dark side of the moon, as the ancients thought, but as a force that is perent, and active in and around the earth.
Also it is likely that souls(which i believe in habite all living beings and make them living) dwell in this 5th demention.

this theory explains how the big bang theory and the creation theory could both be wright.

this might be confusing but i will elaberate more on this later and use examplesand make this a cool little thesis. i am writing this quickly and i hope you people can understand me. sorry for all the miss spelling but all these ideas are coming at me and my small brain can not keep up.

the evils of social darwinism

2006-04-30T13:22:00.000-07:00

darwin was correct, the world is in a constant state of change. Things have evolved, yes, but not to the extent of what people think. We can not apply darwins theorys to society with out a horrid out come.
Social darwinism is based on the observation that the poor tend to stay poor, and the rich stay rich. this lead a man named Spencer to conclude that the the poor were were "feebleminded" because they could not rise up. But in truth is that different skills are needed to survive in a poor area then in a rich one. The rich are taught to save and invest wail the poor are taught to survive.
Also an other fundamental idea of social darwinism is that the Nortic race is the pures and most evolved. They believe that the cold envoroment kills of the week and feeble minded faster then a place like africa. So in summery blonds were considered the smartest compaired to africans who were considered feebleminded not fit for anything but farm work and servent work.
Social Darwinism has supported racism and is peoples way of using science to justify there hatered and predujece.

the effects of Social Darwinism is still seen today as we ignoor the genosides in africa but we get involved in bausnia were whites were being threatened. Also the predudice is still persent in our society today.

"ONLY WEAK PEOPLE BELIEVE IN SOCIAL DARWINISM, ONLY INFERIOR PEOPLE NEED TO AFFIRM THEIR OWN SUPERIORITY "

thought

2006-04-28T06:10:00.000-07:00

have you ever noticed that we never really think much. we never really have deep conversations. most of the time we talk about unimportent things such as, work, home,clothing, sports ect.. how often do we discusse things such as the meaning of life, love, and how it all began? Most of the time we glid though life caring only about the here and now, we never really look at things. We are in such a rush to see everything that we miss everything. we miss what is really importent in life love, hope,though, and nature. we focuse more on who is dating who and who is going to be on oprah. we need to slow down, watch, and think.

chains

2006-04-26T06:24:00.000-07:00

were are all free at birth, it is society who keeps us is chains. social prsssures keep us inslaved for our whole lives. we learn at a young age that we must respect auhority of our parents, teachers,ect. they indoctrinate us to conform to social norms, as they learned from authority figures in there youth. we have been taught from a early age that rebellion against these norms is bad and will disrupt the order, and peace.

we need to brake these social norms. we must free our selves so that all others will be free. we need to let creativity run free. this is needed to come up wit hme ideas. we must again create. we need change. we must brake out chains.

good and evil

2006-04-22T12:02:00.000-07:00

is evil more then the absence of good,

or is good more then the absence of evil?

can something be all evil?can something be all good?

if there is a absolute evil, and a absolute good then why do they co-exist in the same world, soul,body,ect.

is man inharently evil or is he inharently good?

if we do something with good intentions but it turns out to become evil, is it good or evil?

could what we think is evil now really turn into something good?

2006-04-20T13:59:00.000-07:00

love is blind

2006-04-20T08:53:00.000-07:00

when we are in love we are blind to every thing. all the world fades replaced with the face of the one we love. we feel we need to be in love, have that special someone who we will spend the reast of our lives with. this is because we need to feel loved. this is earged is increased by the media telling us that if we have not found that special one we can never be happy.
once we believe that we have found that one we forget all the others that we once loved, our friends, and our family. we let them get lost in the eyes of the one we love.
love is blind.it does not let us see the world.

death

2006-04-12T06:09:00.000-07:00

can we be dead and still be alive?

can our bodys be alive when our hearts, minds, and souls die?

are we dead once we give our being away?

are we dead once we lose our selves?

can we rise from the dead?

"HOW MEN ARE OPPRESSED:
1. Men are treated as inherently aggressive and violent. Men are notallowed to be flexible; they are forced into a narrow definition of MALE.When they do not fit in to the definition they are labeled "wimp", "sissy"or "girl".
2. Violence against men is more condoned than against women. Despite the growing societal awareness of violence against women (which is very good)it is still acceptable to harm or kill men if the reason is "justifiable".
3. Men are treated as if they do not feel pain or experience the full rangeof emotions like women. If killing or risking of life and limb is involvedmen are chosen for the job. When they get hurt at work or play they areexpected to shrug it off and continue as if nothing happened; the work or the game is considered more important than their feelings. Men are lookedupon as expendable.
4. Boys and men are not expected to need closeness, reassurance andattention, which is thought to be harmful to their sense of place andimportance in the world. If a boy or man asks for help they are seen asweak and needy and then put down for being like a woman.
5. Men are treated as inherently compulsive in their sexuality. It is a liethat men cannot help the way they think, feel, look or act in a sexualcontext towards anyone.

THE TRUTH ABOUT MEN:
1. Every man has always done the best he could to fight the oppression thatwas placed upon him; even when he acts oppressively towards men or women,he is still fighting against the oppression as hard as he can and as muchas he knows how to.
2. All men want, need and require close loving relationships with men andwomen. It is the effects of oppression that lead men ever to act otherwise.If it is difficult to see this then it is where YOU have bought into MaleOppression.
3. Every man is capable of recovering his humanness completely. No man isever too far gone, too out of reach, or too damaged. AGAIN: Not seeing thisclearly is part of Male Oppression. It may take resource but every man isworthwhile to love.
4. Tenderness, closeness, and softness are all inherent male traits.Therefore it is 100% masculine to have these qualities. It is oppressive toconsider that masculinity is only "tough," "rough" and "strong;" just as itwould be sexist to view women only as tender, close, and soft creatures. Itis 100% feminine for women to be tough, rough, and strong . By definition,men are not feminine, just as women are not masculine."

this is not my artical i just copyed and pasted it. who ever wrote this said perfectly what i feel men face. i believe that this needs to change and women need to open up to the idea of human men, just like most of them opened up to the idea of human women. though men amd women differ greatly they still want and need the same things. the differences in men and women are the thing that allow women and men to fall in love and reproduse.

what i learned in science class

2006-04-10T06:24:00.000-07:00

this is what i learned in science class today. there was nothing, only now they are saying there was something only really small. it went kaboo and then there was out universe. i am i the only one who does not get it? what exploded. and how did it get there. who or what put it there. and why did it all of a sudden explode. and how did we get there.

people now say that we came to earth on a commet. all of life hitched a ride on a commet that crashed into our world millions of years ago. this is just sad. and they are teaching this as fact giving no alternatives theorys. honestly i believe that the creation theorys have more scientific backing then this theory. how on earth does a commet have enought water to substarin a living cell. the cell has to need water because we need water and we evolved from this cell. or people say that life all started from a egg. but a egg needs to be warm to hatch. and a space is not warm enought to hatch a egg. it has to need the same conditions that all life has here because all life came from this cell.

also were did this cell come from. it had to come from somewere. and why was it there. once science can answer these questions then i will believe in the big bang theory. and once they have proved this theory only then dio they have a right to teach this as the only theory of how the world is created.

(who came up with the name "the big bang theory" they are very uncreative, but then again so is science)

eyes

2006-04-10T06:09:00.000-07:00

eyes are strange things. they are so complex and compact. some people believe tha tthe eye is to complex to have been created on accident. it works so perfectly. they are so small but it does so many jobs. most of what we know about the world we see. but our eyes often lie to us.

we often see things that are not there and do not see thngs that are. our eyes lie to we need use other sences not jsut out eyes to discover thinks about the world. we must also use our brians.

most people do not use there brains. i being one of the many. but i believe that we must start using them to understnad thing. i believe just because you see something does not mean u understand it. i believe that a person must use all there scences and think about something before they can understand it. observation can only take the human race so far.

dream within a dream

2006-04-06T06:57:00.000-07:00

Take this kiss upon the brow!And, in parting from you now,Thus much let me avow-You are not wrong, who deemThat my days have been a dream;Yet if hope has flown awayIn a night, or in a day,In a vision, or in none,Is it therefore the less gone?All that we see or seemIs but a dream within a dream.
I stand amid the roar Of a surf-tormented shore,And I hold within my handGrains of the golden sand-How few! yet how they creep Through my fingers to the deep,While I weep- while I weep!O God! can I not grasp Them with a tighter clasp?O God! can I not save One from the pitiless wave?Is all that we see or seemBut a dream within a dream? --- edgar allen poe

domestic violence

2006-04-04T11:13:00.000-07:00

ok. i will try not to be sexist when i am writing this but i have found out something very
disturbing, every 12-15 seconds a women is battered in the US alone. think about that in the time it took me to log on to blogger an write that startment 1 women was battered. i am not saying that all men abuse women.but i am saying that we need to stop this abuse. there needs to be more serious consequences for peopel who abuse there female partners. (women abuse males too, but that only happens 5% of the time so i will focuse on men hiting women). a drug dealer who is convicted can reseive 5-10 years in prison. the most common punishment placed on a domestic violence case is a restraining order. i think that pysicaly hurting someone is more of a problem then a bunch of peopel who smoke weed. women get killed because of domestic violence, all pot can give you is a messed up life and if you smoke to much lung cancer. we need strict laws protecting women from there violent partners.

again i say it not all men hit women, some do and that is the reson for this blog entry

disturbing statistics

one in four women will experiance domestic violence in her lifetime
only 54% of domestic violence is reported to the police

the big bang theory is wrong

2006-03-29T07:04:00.000-08:00

The big bang theory can not have accrued because it does not make scense. People who believe in this theory do not truly understand about the concept of nothing. Nothing is nothing. Nothing can explode because there is nothing to explode. Guess what happens when 2 nothings explode……nothing because there is nothing to explode. To say that the universe was created out of a big explosion u first must say what exactly exploded. Because there are has to be something that exploded there had to be something before this universe. Something had to be there because nothing can come from nothingness. So if there was something before the universe that we live in today u need something to be a constant or something that was before our universe that there was still peaces left from. Laws of motion also dictate that the big bang theory can not be correct. The law of anercha states that a body that is at rest stays at rest until an outside force moves it. If chemicals reacted caused a explosion why did it happen because laws of physics that u need a outside force to make something have a reaction. This information almost becomes irrelevant because of the fact that nothing can come out on nothing. There had to be something before or a constant eternal being. But to suggest that there was a eternal does not make scene either. This because nothing is forever and nothing can exist with out being born or created. the idea that there was once something and it has died or has been destroyed makes the most logical cense to me because it would explain that something was there before and why is not there now. But we must strive to find out what was there, if we ever want to find out some truth. Science must never stop trying to find what was there before and should not be satisfied with easy answers. They must strive to find out what was there before.

i hate our government

2006-03-29T06:48:00.000-08:00

i love this country. i really do. it was created on great ideas by guineses. why i hate our government, it is that it has taken a domocracy that was biult on a great idea, freedom of all, and twisted it into a opressive institution. the govenment now has the right to tap your phones, enter your home, take your property and censore what you say. our government has become greedy and stupid. we now have anti-loitering that provent us from peaceful grathering. this is sick. i will be a radical until this changes, like the founding fathers before me.

people

2006-03-20T06:47:00.000-08:00

people are still primative beings. they naturally seek out what makes them feel good, and run away from things that cause pain. peopel are unreliable, the only thing that you can rely on is that people will always seek out what is pleasurable. most people would agree with me on this theory. then why do people behaive in a way that hurts them. i believe that it is because of a hope, a hope that if they do this one thing it will lead to pleausure. that is why people act stupidly, turning themselves into sexual objects, put them selves through painful friendships and relationships, and stay in abusive situations. people believe that if they have many friends that they will be loved, no matter what these people do to them. they believe that staying in a abusive situation will be better in the end. the person will calm down or that it would be better for them if they just stayed. it would be safer if they stayed with what they now. it is ironic, people go through pain in the hope of finding pleasure.

freedom of speech

2006-03-15T12:05:00.000-08:00

"i only asked for the right to freedom of speech!!"(the caption under the cartoon)

A woman is disappointed in the Genie in the Lamp, as he takes advantage of the Laws of free speech in the Western World.(artists notes) alexis hunter

it is so true, most people believe that people have the freedom of speech. but that means anyone has the right to say anything they want. no matter how sick it is. it is sad but people still believe that and say stuff like this. put they have the right to say it. u can not stop people from saying this stuff. but u can practice your right to freedom of speech and aruge with them. if they do not listen then you can always burn there book and/or have a protest.

false freedom

2006-03-12T06:44:00.000-08:00

none are more hopelessly enslaved then those who falsely beleive that they are free - Goethe

this is so true. in this country we beleive we are free, and at one time we were. now out govenment have used there power to "protect the people" but in reallity they have just taken away there natural rights. the right to life, libery and property, the rights that our government was founded on. if the founding fathers say how far out country has fallen they would wonder why we have not started a revolution. our government now is worse then britian at the time of the american revolution.we have lost our ability to think, we are lost in our comfortable lives, only thinking about the here and now. we must learn to think and realive that our freedom is being taken away with such acts as the patriot act (allowing the government to spy on all citizens)and emonit domain(a bill that lets the government that lets the government to take your land). we must stop voting for the people who give us the most money and support the people who protect our rights.

support the libratarion party!!!!!

the life cycle

2006-03-10T07:34:00.000-08:00

this is the life cycle that we are expected to live in america. we believe that pills can solve all our problems. we have pills for everything now, pills to loss weight with out diet or exercise, to help out memory, ect. the problem is that each pill has a side effect, then we have to take another pill to get ride of the side effect, this becomes a huge cycle. we have a pills for every stage of life. what we need is to try to life healthy lifestyles, exercise eat well, and just calm down. this is a lot cheaper and then we will not have to pay so much for healthcare.

note on ritalin: in the 60's kids took drugs to open there minds and think creatively, now there parents who grow up in the 60's are giving there kids ritalin so they can fit into the box of society.

Do not judge based on grades

2006-03-10T07:07:00.000-08:00

“Ever person is different and special” we all learn this when we are little. But once we get to school we are actively taught to conform to other peoples standards and to become what they consider to be normal. If we do not we are shunned, called stupid, or put on drugs. In school we are expected to read at a serine age, spell at a serine level, do serine kinds of math ect. But in reality many people, such as my self can not achieve these standards. This does not mean that they are stupid, it only means that they are different.
Our school system only helps those who learn a serine way. And if we do not learn that way they do one of 3 things. 1 they send them to a lower level class where they have a limited future because they do not want to take the time to help them. 2 if they act up in class, instead of trying to connect the student so they are not bored they put them on drugs, such a Ritalin. 3 they just ignore the problem until the student think they are stupid and believes that they have no hope. This is sick if you ask me. School needs to reform so it can help ever child who needs help. They need to find a system were it is truly possible for every person to have a chance of archiving there dream.

time

2006-03-08T07:56:00.000-08:00

what is time?
we are effected by it, and we live in it but wha tis it really? i believe we will never be able to know. but we should not pretend like we understand it. time is the 4th demention most people will not argue that. but can we ever really explore it and understand it.
we will never be able to time traval. if we ever could we would have people from the futur in out time right now.
we thnk that because we put a name on something we can understand it, but in reality we can never really fully understand above the 3 dementions.

the land of the watched and the home of robots

2006-03-08T07:23:00.000-08:00

first of all i would like to thank congress for allowing the patriot act to be extended. i feel so comforted knowing that i am beening watched by the govenment. now that this unconstitutional act has been extended, all we need is a geniside and we will be exactly like nazi germeny. (we already have a evil dictator). and to believe that we are over in iraq trying to bring democracy to this country when we do not even have freedom in out own country. lets free our country befor we start to bomb countrys trying to free them.

fighting a war for peace? what the heck? that is like having sex for virginity it does not work.

what is normal

2006-03-06T07:14:00.000-08:00

what is normal? have u ever really asked your self that question? each of us have our own ideas on what is normal for some is weird and scary for some. for example in some countrys it is pefectly exseptable to go naked and people do not think twice about it. it is normal to them. but if we say someone here doing that we would be in shock. we would probobly send them to an institution. for use that is abnormal.
there is a great book out called diffine normal.the book tells the story of a teenage girl who one the surface leads a very normal life. she is what most people would call normal. but she has a secret, her mom has a mental illness and she must run the familly for her. the story gets interesting when she meets a girl named jazz. she is punk and she is what people call abnormal. but in the end we learn to see her as living a stable life and is able to help Antonia. jazz helps her see a world in a new way. a world with out the idea of normal.(it is a very good book you should read it)
i believewhat we consider to be normal is based on our soical position,our life experences, and the way we were broght up.

this idea rasies many questions for me. is there a absolute morality? what truely right? can we ever truely know whati s right and what is wrong? can we really see the black and white in life?and were is the gray?
i personaly have a strange take on the questions of right and what is wrong. i belevie that humans can not truely see ababsolute morality only grays. this is because i believe only a higher power can truely see this. the way i try to live my life is by a veriation on the pagan cread. harm none and live as you please. my vareation is help thoses who need help. this way is the only way i see of living a moral life on earth.

i believe that people should live by this rule no matter what relgien is. we r in no position to judge because there is really no such thing as normal. we can not judge people bacuase they r not like use and have different ideas on what is normal. to some we are abnormal.
