no, not practically anyways. They are leaders because they gained power, they gained power with money. It's like asking if a bird could fly without wings.

That raises another question in me. If people should judge the USA based on what they did 60 years ago in WW2 and not on what they are doing right now, then what is the USA doing in Afghanistan, since that country helped them during the Cold War?

where does the government get off in thinking it can make these types of decisions for us in the first place? they should have no jurisdiction in peoples mistakes. It's almost as if they're looking at some demographic charts and going nuts that Norway is beating us in some useless statistic.

I have a question. I gave up being concerned with the notion of global warming a couple weeks ago specifically because I began to wonder if maybe this trend of the earth warming up might be natural. If we believe that a large asteroid struck the earth, and if the dust that was kicked up as a result ...

While it seems that sexism is more frequent than I had believed it still seems that people are trying to be overly aware. If it is only used in reaction not pre-emptively then actions anti-equality done out of spite would most likely decrease and it would put offenders back on the offensive(wish the ...

I graduated in 1984, and while our class valedictorian was a girl, things in MY school were not "equal if not tilted to females". I clearly remember being told girls shouldn't play sports when I was in 8th grade and when I was little, it was a big huge deal if a girl played on the local Little ...

"Girls who have grown up learning they can do anything a boy can do, which is anything they want to do."

seriously, feminism seems to me like one big scham. Society is, for the most part, equal if not tilted towards women. Yet they feel all united and special by beating some odds that were never ...
