Sexual Orientation is it Nature or Nurture?

Psychologically speaking there was a conflict between nature and nurture for a long time, and there still is in some cases but it has largely been solved by a synthesis of the two ideas. Most people in the world, as well as many psychologists, would agree that genetics and traits that seem to come with a person when they are born (fewer psychologists would agree with this last part) interact with the environment of a person to make up who they are today. By environment I mean the experiences they have as they grow as well as other factors outside an individual that can influence their development. It certainly makes sense to think this way, certainly, our experiences play a part in the shaping process but there first has to be something to shape. People are not blank slates which are written on by those around them, they are minimally or partially written on slates which flavors our interactions with the world. Yet a lot of people when we discuss sexual orientation, specifically for sa...

Populations, Overrun or Undervalued?

How many of us have seen a movie or read a book where the antagonist (or protagonist depending on what you think) thinks they are the hero because they are trying to save the species or something by killing a ton of people? Hands, hands anyone? If you have been watching popular movies in the last year you have.

Thanos doesn't see it that way and neither do some people who you walk by on the street. A book by a man named Paul Ehrlich titled "The Population Bomb" outlined the dangers of overpopulation with regards to resources, specifically food and water. This lead to many people believing that having many children was actually immoral. "Immoral, can you believe that!?" is what some of you might say. But how many of you have had the thought that you aren't sure you want to bring kids in...

Fathers are they really that important? YES!!!!!!!

Our world today is littered with fatherless homes and motherless homes. Yet, mothers often are left with taking care of children on their own or mostly on their own. Doesn't mean I think mothers aren't better at raising children, they often are and rightly get custody. But there is something to be said about fathers. It's not that fathers are better than mothers at one thing or another (different discussion, men, and women complement each other) it just that they are different and their presence, as well as the mothers, has an effect on the atmosphere of a home. Either wives and husbands drift apart and divorce leaving the situation in a bad place with the temptation of a father to let things go with his "old" family or there was no marriage, to begin with, and they feel no obligation to be in the child's life on a regular basis. Perhaps its what they are used to seeing or what they grew up with themselves? regardless it does not build contributive and useful ...
