Politics, News & Issues > Politics, News & Issues (Other) Can democracy survive in a politically correct world?: 3 of 20

Political correctness is just another name for censorship. When there is an elaborate set of rules governing private and public discourse as in the United States today (there is a 2007 book "The N word: who can say it, who shouldnt, and why") freedom of speech and expression is severely limited, life is run according to top ...
Religion & Spirituality > Islam Muslims: The right to wear a veil: 3 of 15

A veil would be impractical for me. I would most likely strangle myself in the very next revolving door plus I just don't ever have the time to accessorize with anything else. Of course, either a woman or a man or a child can wear whatever it is they like to wear within reason. I think our schools and everybody else pays too...
Arts & Humanities > Art History The art of interpreting art: 5 of 19

Art has a life of its own. An artistic piece has a certain structure according to its general art form or against it. It could be an oil painting. Yet once the painting's finished it continues to live through its expression to whoever looks upon it. Artists express themselves and try to convey their messages to their audienc...
Politics, News & Issues > Politics in Europe Vladimir Putin: Czar or president: 3 of 11

Putin is not a Russian tsar. The tsarist throne was out of sight during Putin's presidential inauguration. He acknowledged studying Russian history and made it clear recently that going back even as far as any claims to the ex-Soviet republics is not an option. Russian history is a series of bloody coups to seize power and e...
Relationships & Family > Coping with Divorce How to remain friends with your spouse after a divorce: 2 of 7

It is very important to remain civil, if not friends, with your spouse after a divorce and especially before the official legal divorce or separation takes place. My divorce was very painful and it took years to only arrive at a Muslim divorce' stage in our marriage ("I want to leave." "OK. You can leave.") when we have both...
Relationships & Family > Dating Dilemmas & Advice Prying versus privacy in relationships: 4 of 8

"God forgives, people don't" said my pastor suggesting that if an infidelity happened it needed not necessarily be brought up to the cheated person's attention. I was in a state of shock at how he could have said that! It took me at least a couple of years to understand that yes, indeed, now I think my pastor was right. It s...
Relationships & Family > The Single Life Being single and happy: 37 of 68

I am totally committed to being single. I am single for life and cannot ever envision giving up my singlehood. I had been married and after 4 divorces, dating and relationships I decided being with myself by myself is the best thing for me. I have fond memories of my ex and my boyfriends. Whenever I date I inadvertently run ...
Politics, News & Issues > Politics, News & Issues (Other) Should pharmacists be forced to violate religious beliefs by selling the morning after pill?: 33 of 54

Dispensing a lot of highly questionable as far as their health benefits medications is an every day life of a pharmacist and I see pharmacists working on their composure sometimes while dispensing medications with a lot of side effects or just seeing the amount of pills prescribed to a patient unless I am either too intuitiv...
Relationships & Family > Dating Commentary Why it's wrong to steal someone else's boyfriend or girlfriend: 5 of 7

Stealing is a crime but I have been lucky not to have a boyfriend stolen unless I forgot some. I used to think stealing was an insignificant crime until the day my girlfriend and most of the other women in our aerobics class had their outfits and coats stolen from our locker room. I didn't only because I left a uniform at ho...
Business > Management (Other) Management tips for organization leaders: 3 of 4

Having expertise in the field where one is a manager always seemed to me to distinguish capable managers from the rest. Times have changed and not too many people stay with one company or in one field for the duration of their entire career. There is a whole new generation of new, straight out of business school, managers wh...
