Defending Christmas: It's "Merry Christmas," not "Happy Holidays" |... - 2 views

      Je trove que cette point de vue de l'auteure est très intéressant...
  • It's that time of year again - the buildup to the holiday whose name so many people are afraid to say. "Merry Christmas." Why do these two words offend so many people? Why is this greeting such a big problem? Why are their retail stores that insist their employees say "Happy Holidays"? Of course, some have even dropped the 's', and wish people a "Happy Holiday." What holiday are they talking about? Why can't they just say it!? Why are there so many offices that are afraid to have a "Christmas" party? Why are public schools forbidden to utter the word "Christmas" and, in some cases, not allowed to even have red and green decorations or visits from Santa Claus? What's the problem with Christmas? In truth, there should be NO problem with Christmas - and there should be no problem , thankfully, some retail stores like Wal-Mart are wising up to this fact.

  • While the United States is officially and culturally committed to religious freedom, the overwhelming majority of the American people respect Christmas as it has traditionally been understood and observed. Here are some facts to prove this: According to the well-known polling firm Zogby, 95% of Americans are NOT offended when they hear "Merry Christmas" and over half are "bothered" by the greeting "Happy Holidays." A FOXNEWS poll in 2005 suggests that 95% of Americans celebrate Christmas - that's "Christmas" specifically as in the holiday on December 25 Another FOXNEWS poll that same year said that 83% of respondents believed nativity scenes were appropriate for public propertyA 2004 Newsweek poll revealed that 79% of Americans believe in the virgin birth of Jesus Christ as depicted in the BibleNinety percent of respondents to a 2000 Gallup poll affirmed the birth of Jesus Christ as the purpose of Christmas
  • This author will grant that it's unethical and socially wrong to deliberately provoke and offend someone who is of a different faith. But this does not mean - nor should it mean - that we have to censor out any public, visible displays of Christmas for the comfort of the few who might be offended. The First Amendment guarantees the free exercise of religion. It does NOT - and read this carefully - it does NOT guarantee one the right to NOT be offended. It does NOT guarantee the right of one to be free of any social discomfort.

Should prostitution be legal? - Prostitution - ProCon.org - 0 views

  • "One cannot support the reduction of AIDS infections and support legal prostitution at the same time. Prostitution remains one of the leading vectors for AIDS infection. This is true in the case of both legal and illegal prostitution... Prostitutes, because of their many partners, have a greatly increased risk of exposure to HIV. They are likewise able to spread HIV to many other partners...
    • Mira Marhaba
       
      Dans notre société, on essaie de reduire le sida et tous les autres "STD". En légalisant la prostitution, on va surement élever les taux de STD.
  • There are a multitude of studies to show the high level of abuse that prostitutes suffer. Women are literally bought and sold as property. The incidence of drug addiction is high among women, partially explaining why they became prostitutes to begin with. The argument for legalization goes something like this. Prostitution will happen anyway but legalization and regulation will help stem the abuses. The argument has 50,000 foot appeal. Using the same logic, slavery (which still exists in many places) should be legalized so underground slaves can be given some measure of human rights. The fact that the ACLU and the bevy of left-wing international groups don't argue for the legalization of slavery shows the logical inconsistency of their position. Further, the legalization of abortion has shown that it lead to a radical increase in abortion. The legalization will lead to an untold number of women being forced into sex slavery. Make no mistake, women will be forced into commercial sex work in greater numbers if it were legalized."

      Les femmes vont faire face a une grande quantité d'abus. Le plus qu'on a de prostitution, le plus qu'on va avoir d'abus de femmes.
  • Legalized prostitution creates the same problems that legalized marijuana does. While prostitution is legal, forced prostitution is not. The latter occurs, and the new German law unintentionally makes it harder to hunt down human traffickers, especially from Eastern Europe and Africa. Similarly, it is harder to combat under-aged prostitution. With legalized marijuana and prostitution, Amsterdam became a magnet for human traffickers, drug traders and petty criminals. This is not the world legalization’s proponents envisioned, but it happened."

Halloween in Public Schools: Do Halloween Celebrations Violate the Separation of Church... - 1 views

  • Many Halloween traditions and symbols can be traced to ancient pagan celebrations of the harvest season before the onset of winter. Part of the process of the Christianization of Europe was the appropriation of holidays, including this one. Thus the church, under the direction of Pope Gregory IV, created All Hallow's Eve for October 31 and All Saints Day for November 1 starting in the year 835. In some ways, these dates were the start of the Christmas season for traditional Christianity.
  • Although the number of people who celebrate anything religious on Halloween is very small, that shouldn't matter if it is celebrated in a religious way in public schools — it would still be unconstitutional.
  • One sign of just how much Halloween has changed and can change is the relatively rapid development of it from a children's holiday into a largely adult holiday. Adults are spending more and more on Halloween costumes, favors, and parties. Children's celebrations have been curtailed and eclipsed.

SparkNotes: Utilitarianism: Chapter 5: Of the Connection between Justice and Utility (P... - 1 views

  • Mill begins by trying to pin down the meaning of justice, by coming up with a list of those things that are commonly classified as just or unjust. First, it is considered unjust to deprive someone of his legal rights. However, this concept has exceptions. For example, a person may have legal rights he should not have--his rights may be the provision of a bad law. While people vary on whether bad laws can be justly disobeyed, all people agree that laws can be unjust. Therefore, law cannot be the ultimate standard of justice. A second form of injustice comes from depriving someone of something he has a moral right to possess. Third, it is considered just that a person receive what he "deserves," and unjust that he obtain something he doesn't deserve; people are thought to deserve good things if they have done right, and evil things if they have done wrong. A fourth form of injustice is to violate an agreement with someone or disappoint expectations that one knowingly nurtured. Fifth, it is considered unjust to show favoritism and preference in inappropriate circumstances. However, it is not generally necessary to be impartial; for example, one doesn't have to be impartial in the selection of friends. The claim is rather that a person should only be influenced by those considerations that should apply in a given circumstance. Finally, the idea of equality is seen by many to be a component of justice; some people may make an exception for the sake of expediency, however.
  •  
    This quote is a bit on the big side (understatement), but i highlighted it all to show the connection between utilitarianism and justice. It shows all the exceptions to some laws that may be made, and WHY they should be made. So basically it shows that just because there is a law, it doesn't mean that it is necessarily right.

    Legal does not equal moral. "Therefore, law cannot be the ultimate standard of justice. "

The Pursuit of Happiness | Psychology Today - 0 views

  • Both the happiness and anti-happiness forces actually agree on something important—that we Americans tend to grab superficial quick fixes such as extravagant purchases and fatty foods to subdue any negative feelings that overcome us. Such measures seem to hinge on a belief that constant happiness is somehow our birthright. Indeed, a body of research shows instant indulgences do calm us down—for a few moments. But they leave us poorer, physically unhealthy, and generally more miserable in the long run—and lacking in the real skills to get us out of our rut.

Prostitution - The Canadian Encyclopedia - 1 views

On Liberty by John Stuart Mill : chapter three - 0 views

  • Among the works of man, which human life is rightly employed in perfecting and beautifying, the first in importance surely is man himself. Supposing it were possible to get houses built, corn grown, battles fought, causes tried, and even churches erected and prayers said, by machinery--by automatons in human form--it would be a considerable loss to exchange for these automatons even the men and women who at present inhabit the more civilized parts of the world, and who assuredly are but starved specimens of what nature can and will produce. Human nature is not a machine to be built after a model, and set to do exactly the work prescribed for it, but a tree, which requires to grow and develop itself on all sides, according to the tendency of the inward forces which make it a living thing.
  •  
    This quote gives an example that goes along the lines of this (my interpretation): if we were able to replace anything that humans are doing, with machinery, and in doing so, increase our efficiency, shouldn't we? Well let me ask you this, isn't that what we're already doing? We let the computers and phones and websites and machines take over our whole lives. It may not be very clear how this relates to our topic, but in my opinion, the author worded it in a way to challenge the reader. He asks the question in a way to make the reader respond "Of course not. Why would we replace ourselves with something like a robot?" before they realize that we have, in fact, partially replaced ourselves with these "robots". I think this is important  because it shows how sometimes, just by hearing the theory of an argument, some people will say that it is wrong wrong wrong, but when actually faced with that problem, they would realize that there may be some exceptions to some moral rules. (argument should be used if they show statistics about more people agreeing that torture should not be used)

Considering the pros and cons of "torture" » Columns » Rush... - 3 views

  • But just for the sake of discussion, let’s bring the whole issue closer to home. Suppose your son or your daughter is, for some reason, the target of kidnappers and that they’ve put your child in a hidden location with a bomb scheduled to go off if you don’t pay them a million dollars. Now, suppose you have one of the kidnappers in custody. What would you be willing to do, assuming you couldn’t get the money, to find out where your child was being held and get him or her away from the bomb? Whoops, you can’t slap the kidnapper! That would be torture! You can’t even threaten to shoot him if he doesn’t tell you what you need to know! Again, that would be torture! Do you think you might be inclined to take whatever action necessary to save your child? Or would you let your child die to avoid torture? The world is, and always has been, a vicious place and its fine and grand and noble to talk about never using torture or the threat of torture – in the abstract. I would contend, however, that if the life of your child or your spouse or your best friend was on the line, you might not look on a slap as the unlawful infliction of severe physical pain in quite the same light. In the abstract, we can call it torture. When the lives of loved ones are at stake, I submit that being slapped around seems relatively mild – but I could be wrong.

  • There are endless examples of the differences between humans and non-human animals. PCP is a sedative for chimps Penicillin kills cats and guinea pigs but has saved many human lives.

A 20th Century Habit - 0 views

  • The twenty years from 1920 to 1940 saw a tripling in consumption with 182 billion cigarettes sold for a per capita number of 1,976.  Not coincidentally these twenty years saw the explosive growth of the new entertainment medium, the movies.  It was a rare move produced in those days that did not have smoking on screen.  WWII created another upsurge in smoking, as millions of GIs picked up the habit to temper the boredom and stress of combat. The 1945 numbers jumped to 341 billion and 3,449 per capita, or roughly half a pack a day for every person over the age of 18.
  •  
    These statistics are just to prove that: 1) just because a majority is voting, most certainly does NOT mean that they are right. they could be completely wrong (as they were about the smoking before the 1930's) 2) even if the majority KNOWS that what theyre voting for or doing is bad, they may CONTINUE TO DO IT ANYWAY
