When kids kill other kids, are parents to blame? We blame it on movies, music, video games and the news, but are parents actually the ones responsible when their children commit murder? Society blames it on movies and music, video games, the news and even other kids when children murder…
Cults are something to be avoided at all costs. Unfortunately, cults often use appealing subcultures as a ruse to lure people into their grasp. If you’re thinking about joining a vampire group, you need to know what to look for to ensure it’s not dangerous. Real Living Vampires sometimes have…
There are a lot of people out there who claim to be for world peace. They scream and rant and support organization after organization. They tell you over and over that they support peace and that if only you’d follow their example that world peace would be achievable. My question…
An article on Elite Daily mentions a Washington Post headline that blamed women for rape. It suggested that if women had husbands rather than boyfriends, they and their children would be safer. I’m not going all into how that’s not true or fair, but it did get me thinking.
I was just browsing around the internet and saw a video of a Chinese woman being beaten by a man that was presumably her husband. After she was beaten down to the ground people finally stepped in. Viewers are praising the crowd, but I think it took far too long…
I was reading an article about how women typically pay more for products even though they’re often absolutely identical to the male versions. It’s true, I’ve seen it myself, and a lot of people don’t think about it, but they probably should. I have noticed more times than I can…
There’s been a lot of talk lately about the gender inequality in toys that are currently on the market. parents want better toys for their daughters with less stereotyping, and they want toys for their sons that go beyond typical gender roles. I’m all for that, but it seems that…
I’ve seen a lot of talk about race inequality lately, and it makes me angry. I don’t understand how, in this day and age, people can still care about the color of a person’s skin or their country of origin. Even the supposed terrorist threat doesn’t warrant racism in my…
I saw a commercial on television advertising a dish washer detergent. The couple’s glasses came out with some white spots on them, so the woman sends the man off to distract their guests while she tries to clean them. I know they’re trying to sell a product, but this commercial,…
I was just sitting in the living room eating lunch and Little House On The Prairie was on. There was a scene where Mr. Garvey took his son out to the barn for a “whoopin’” and it made me think of how some people would call that child abuse now.…
I’m sure you’ve all heard of the “golden rule” which goes something like this: Do unto others as you would have done unto you. Over the years, that right there is one thing that I keep thinking could change the world if people would just learn to live by it,…
In another email I got today they were talking about how Ugandan newspapers are now outing gay, bi and trans people. This is horrible to begin with, but what’s worse is that in Uganda and other places in the world it’s actually illegal to not be heterosexual and you can…
*Sighs* Sometimes I think I need to unsubscribe from every petition site and newsletter I’m on. The horror that gets pumped into my inbox is enough to make me wish I owned a gun so I could go on a mass shooting spree. One of today’s three emails that made…
I recently stumbled across an image on Pinterest that was almost enough to make me cry, and surely enough to make me angry. It was a perfect illustration of one of the major problems in our current society.
