  2. Deadly Persuasion on Are Kids Turning Your Kids Into Killers? · · Score: 1


    many of our learned behaviours come from the larger culture we are part of. this has been true for millenia and is even more true today.

    in the past, culture was the "oral tradition" of history, entertainment etc. as well as the "village" which "raised" the children.

    today we have a "televised" and "printed" tradition. advertisments. propoganda. sit-coms. whatever. this is the medium from which people of all ages ( especially those of the very susecptable early teens age ) are getting there "value system."

    we only have to look at what those "values" are to understand the confusion, discontent and trauma which (kids) people struggle with.

  3. protecting to the death one's right to speak ... on Author Unknown · · Score: 1

    is from Voltaire isn't it ? interesting that i haven't read any comments on how "AC"s are responisble for almost all of the 'issues' we know about. several comments have talked about the 'legal system' protecting us ... how many pentagon scams, cia operations, fbi witch-hunts, corporate dumpings does it take before one gets the idea that this government/society does not have a very 'open' policy. -dan
