Q. When did society begin to realise that feminism is a movement of paedophelia and abusiveness? Feminism is fundamentally a sexist, sex-based, and sex-biased ideological credo based on fear and hatred of men and boys. Paedophilia and abusiveness are just part and parcel of that.

What matters more, the needs of society or the rights or indivduals?
Q. In an orderly dictatorship, the needs of society are met with what the western world has deemed cruel and unusual punishment. They have lower crime rates, but people (apparently) live in fear. In democratic nations, we tend to value the rights of the individual more. I always hear about appaling things in the news, but the criminal can get off because their rights were violated. Where do we draw the line? I believe the rights of individuals are important, but the needs of society are equally important. If we could find a way to balance those two, I think the world could be a much better place. But what are your views?

This is not necessarily a bad thing (Ainu, Aboriginals et. al.) in sheltered societies w/ a benevolent leader. Interaction w/ other societies enriches our own 'individualism' in a benevolent environment. Of course in reality this is not always true since xenophobic, war-mongering societies will try and conquer sheltered societies in which case what choice to sheltered societies have but to protect themselves out of self-preservation (c.f.

A. Jainism and Buddhism cannot be called heterodox religions. Classical Hinduism did not exist at the time of Mahavira and Buddha. What existed were two ancient streams of thought Vedism (precursor of classical Hinduism) and Sramanism (Precurser of Jainism and Buddhism). Sramananism was much more ancient that vedism; It is s pre-vedic and pre-aryan philiosophy. Vedic was more a ritually oriented philosophy with emphasis on deities like Indra and varuna and sacrifices to them. Sramanan was a soteriological philosophy with a view that this samsara (worldly life) was full of suffering and propounded concepts of karma, jnana, samsara, moksa and Ahimsa.

Although this was not a smooth transition from the nomadic .way of life to an agricultural existence, history would prove the scale of differences is closer than they know. Additionally, that small difference is what they need to help each other to survive. … [cont.]

A. My first thought is that this essay uses vocabulary not normally used in a 7th grade essay. Many words would not be used by people much older, yet there are no sources cited. I am basing my impression on having taught 6th-8th grade history for over 30 years. You may want to reconsider some of the words used especially if they are not familar ones to you. On the other hand, this may be your own writing style and your teacher would recognize this and applaud you for your effort.
