.... children. Children who have been sexually abused suffer from devastating psychological breakdown and sometimes death. The children develop mistrust and will have problems in their future relationships. Also sexual abuse makes sexual abusers. The Child Abuse Help Book says “82% of child molesters were molested when they were children.” If you think it isn't a big problem and it won't affect you or someone you love then you're wrong. There are 300,000 to 500,000 reported every year in the united states and experts say “for each case that is reported there are two more that aren't.” Why in Virginia Beach alone in 1993 the social services office counted 6,613 s .....

.... the whole picture when it comes to society's problems. If something hurts the society, it hurts the individual. For example, the problem of homelessness is not just the problem of those who are without residence. Their plight effects us all. Homelessness hurts the local businessman whose customers are frightened away by the homeless man living on the corner. It hurts those who have to commute to work via public transportation and must deal with the panhandlers. It hurts those whose homes are burglarized by the homeless man looking for money to feed his family. There is no isolated problem in society and each problem has a ripple effect that eventually hurts ev .....

.... was passed, and several constitutional amendments that changed the legal status of African Americans were also passed. The Supreme Court of the United States declared federal statues that were to enforce the amendments unlawful. The Supreme Court declared a law that made it illegal for private individuals to discriminate based on color and upheld the unconstitutional idea of state-enforced segregation. Until 1941, discrimination against black Americans in employment, voting, schools, housing, and public transportation was allowed. In 1941 Franklin Roosevelt issued an executive order that would not allow a company working under a government defens .....

.... from the ordination of homosexuals to homosexual marriages. Furthermore, the homosexual community is more prominent than ever: Lesbians and gay men are fighting for civil rights in the courtroom and in Congress, there are gay characters on prime-time television shows, well- known public figures openly discussing their homosexuality, and there is virtually no one who can claim that they have never had contact with a homosexual. In the middle of all this publicity, there lingers a pending Supreme Court case in which the fate of the homosexual lies: Romer v. Evans, a case that dominated Colorado that has come to "symbolize the controversy over gay legal righ .....

.... gay community. People who are attracted to members of their same sex. Throughout this essay, I will do my best to take an unbiased look on the yes and no argument on whether homosexuals should have the same rights as heterosexuals. Firstly, I will discuss the view that homosexuals should not have the same rights as heterosexuals. A large factor in having this view is the belief that God did not create homosexuals, and that homosexuality is a sin. Many religious groups interpret passages from the Bible such as “thou shall not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination” (Leviticus 18:22) This passage would be stating that men are not to be involved .....

.... cannot control his fury. This answer is perhaps exact, but it is very general and it does not explain why some of the causes of the report/ratio supposed between the availability of the weapons with fire and the crimes of violence.According to an assertion, one of the causes of this relationship between the availability of the weapons with fire and the homicides are the fact that the weapons with fire are more fatal than the others weapons and, consequently, more likely to cause a death when ways in fact and flights are made. This explanation is very valid and it is exposed further in the section entitled " the attacks perpetrated with a weapon with fire and th .....

.... their arguments, however, there is no sure way to choose who is right. Over the years, the scientists, the ones who for the most part support the animal testing, have argued that it is the only way for us to safely resaerch the drugs and chemicals that us humans put into our body. They argue that because animals have functions similar to humans, that it only makes sense to use the animals for testing. By looking at both sides very carefully, both for and agaisnt animal testing can one make their own opinion on what they feel is right and wrong. Many will say that the use of animals for testing is both inhumane and should not be allowed as an effective way .....

.... their lives. They are seldom content, and they seem to resent anyone who is. Since both controlling people and passive people have poor relationships, they experience a whole lot of loneliness. After a long while, all of this loneliness adds up and makes them realize they can survive on their own! Then they can stop trying to change their partner and simply enjoy them as they are. Unfortunately, both people need to learn from their loneliness-so they can grow into people who want each other instead of people who think they need each other. It is often very hard to end a love relationship even when you know it is bad for you. A "bad" relationship is not .....
