"ludes" are illegal and dangerous drugs. When taken in pill form, they make you very tired, sound like your drunk when you speak, and you have trouble walking straight.  Ludes, taken with alcohol, become very deadly. You can easily die. It is very foolish to drive when on this drug.

The world we live in today is so different then the one we had years ago that many men feel the need to reassert their masculinity. To prove that they can still provide for their family's if they had to. We survived as a race by killing animals to eat. I don't think its the killing so much. I think its just knowing they are still men who can be in charge without a boss or a wife telling them what to do. It also give them a time to be with other men and tell dirty jokes,pass wind and just have a good old time.

Oh I know.  People are in too much of a rush these days.  Most are in a rush to get nowhere.  I think people give themselves too much to do.  It seems that the more conveniences we get, the less time we have to enjoy life.\n\nWe need to enjoy life while we have it.  Tomorrow is not promised and it can be taken while we spend our lives trying to be better than the next person.

Actually it is a lot less than it used to be. I am 58 and I remember segregation and white people talking about Negroes and "colored people" in a derogatory way. Today a lot of those same groups of people have black friends or work with black people and there is a lot less of that than there used to be. Yes, there are people, usually of a lower socioeconomic class who are still acting that way because they see educated black people getting better jobs than they do and don't want to admit it is because that person is smarter and better educated and they want to bring them below them so they have someone to look down on. They don't want to admit that the problem is themselves.

"They do the jobs Americans won't do."\n\nPlease stop using that bs. Yes there was a time when americans did those jobs. Some were usually a person's first job in the workplace. Others were done by people who needed a job and didn't care what it was. Americans don't do it anymore because of the immigrant. The employer will take the immigrant over the american.

It isn't necessarily becoming more widespread. We just hear about it more so now. It is entirely possible that there were more acts of pedophilia in the past and the vast majority of them were never brought out into the public arena similar to Michael Jackson.\n\nPersonally I'd guess that it is happening either at the same rate or a slightly lower rate than before.

'Most people think psychosurgery, or lobotomy, is not done anymore. Unfortunately, this is not true. In fact, as New York University School of Medicine psychiatry professors Harold I. Kaplan and Benjamin J. Sadock say in their textbook Clinical Psychiatry, published in 1988, "interest in psychosurgical approaches to psychiatric disorders has only recently been rekindled"'\n\n"Between 1939 and 1951, over 18,000 lobotomies were performed in the US, and many more in other countries.  It was often used on convicts, and in Japan it was recommended for use on “difficult” children.  There are still western countries that permit the use of the lobotomy, although its use has decreased dramatically worldwide.  Curiously, the old USSR banned it back in the 1940s on moral grounds!"\n\nThere were many successful lobotomies, they are still performed, though the procedure is generally frowned upon, here are a few sites that you can look at for info-http://www.ship.edu/~cgboeree/lobotomy.html\n http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lobotomy\nhttp://www.antipsychiatry.org/psychosu.htm

Most don't wear habits anymore, so they're harder to spot

We have to just ignore them and the publications that promote them.\n\nI know someone who took aerobics class with the guy who shares a gardener with Jim Carrey.\n\n*yawn*

It's not so much that they call a lot (although they do)...it's that when you say you're not interested, they STILL don't shut up. Whoever's been training them needs to rethink their strategy. I mean, if they weren't wasting their time going on and on (and on) to ppl who don't want their product, they might be able to make a sale to someone else instead.

The world is so sexually obsessed because, to be perfectly honest, SEX SELLS!!! I think there has always been adults who were messing w/ children. But now, because of the times we live in, it is brought more to the light. Plus, there is an imbalance in this world now. It could be that more people are getting away from God (whatever their spiritual belief is) and engaging in lude acts. Not enough parents hug their children or spend time with them and so they get the attention from other sources. Government isn't going to do crap about the exploitation of the female body. They are too busy having shooting accidents and encouraging this bullshit war we are in. Plus, there is the issue of censorship and freedom or expression. As for parents, what are they going to do? They watch the same exploitative shows their kids watch. Alot of the parents of this generation are young uneducated children who became parents too soon.

It's a long list of excuses, I'm sure.  Basically I think people are just too lazy to participate.  They can get to corner to buy a pack of smokes, cash their check, rent a movie, or do any other menial task, but when it comes to being a tiny bit responsible to your country, people get too busy.
