Talon,
i am not replying for whole post but only part of it as some points in this post has been discussed subsequently by samantk and zaibi.
Okkk...
1. Humans did not evolved for apes. They just had a common ancestor. From there they had gone their way in evolution we have gone our's.
2. Chimpanzees are not the starting point of evolution. The first organism to evolve was single celled and it evolved during Eo Archean period. The fossils of subsequent evolution relics are preserved in Australian stromatolites.
3. Reptilian brain is the term used for primitive brain, primitive in the sense of evolution. This is the part of brain which controls basic bodily functions and urges. Meddula oblongata and cerebellum belongs to this part along with some part of occipital lobe and central suculus. These part control bodily functions and urges and drives and is found in reptiles also. The later part is buily upon this foundation.
4. Frontal cortex is the part of brain in-charge of thinking process. It is the one which enables you to do planning, being creative and do algebra and the rest three are part of brsin responsible for linguistic capabilities
@
anonymus thanks for the lesson on evolution...Mind you the term itself has evolved soo much it depends which point of view you wanna look at...We learn it in terms of Molecular biology where ALOT still hasnt been answered NOR is the theroy being held as a law anymore...because, mind you ALOT OF organisms have similar DNA because some PARTS OF THE DNA code for normal stuff like formation of limbs, formation of nose, formation of heart and so on....Furthermore, as little as a 1 basepair difference can result in the formation of a whole new protein and other factors such as environment, retrotransposons and what not are responsibile DNA to “evolve” Even in our own body, we get soo many changes esp by these transposones which jump around that the DNA we are born with, changes by the time we are 2 yrs old....So, dont tell me about apes and what not...I think I know enough about that theory
As far as primitive and whatnot goes, I am well aware of how evolution is drilled in BSc. Mind you unless you are heading for conversational biology or evolutionary biology, all those words have no meaning ....at least not at PhD level...
No, i am not bipolar. State needs to take action and society needs to make stricter laws but the type of laws is what i differ on.
Prohibitory laws never make sense as
1. They are derogatory to humans. They treat subjects like infants and state like a nanny state.
says who? You and OTHER FRUSTRATED souls? A rapist can say the same....That throwing his weight around should be allowed, whose gonna moderate that? What if the judge is also a man of such mantality....Such people do not have it written on their forhead you know....
2. When i ask state to make strict laws i meant that they should make strict punitive law. An example of that would be that you could drink but engage in hooliganism and you would serve an year in jail.
A jock would say you are trying to be his nanny...like you do not want the state to be yours...
Pretty much i am in partial consonance with Saudi philosophy of extreme punishments as it has been proven that punishments work only if they are extreme.
Agreed... PROVEN Criminals esp those who have proudly declared or in some way accepted their crime yet have no remorse should be called criminals though in the West they get better treatment then an everyday man!
3. Under prohibitory laws, people do get access to the prohibited substance by illegal means and usually the worst one gets primary access. An example would be on-going gun control debate in USA. A simple proposition which i think participants there ignore is that, irrespective of restrictions you place on guns,criminals are going to have access to guns.
Well, I do not want to go in to those esp considering where there are SHOPS WHICH sell guns....and then there are smuggled guns and EVERY NOW AND THEN, somehow military weapons end up in blackmarkets....alot is going on there under the table as well as on the table....so not a good example.
Basically, “prohibitory” laws are only applicable if the society isnt corrupt...ONLY prohibition one should put is on themselves...Slave of fashion, slave of drinking, smoking and what not is not exactly normal....You are willing to put prohibitions on SOME stuff yet not on the PERSON who is SUPPOSED to be responsible for THESE stuff?
4.We may be able to prevent some crimes using prohibition law, but any legal measure has to judged by the social benefit of the law. A law is not an Islanded entity. It is a harbinger of political philosophy a state follows. A law which places restriction of an individual is a sign of state which regulates thought process of individual. this leads to muffling of creative thought process and is in toto bad for society. An example of this would be anti-terror laws .They are highly effective but they do not justify the erosion of rights to public.
hmmm were they even the least bit of effective, it wouldn’t take years for even the smallest sign of hope to show....11 yrs and yet it is still chaotic!
Now this is an supremacist argument that i encounter a lot on this forum. Look around yourself and see as to how many things you are using have been invented in east.
Coming to basic science.
1.Did someone in East propounded laws of electro mechanism before maxwell
2. Motion before galileo
3. Relativity before laplace and einstien
4. Planetary motion before Keplar
5.Quantum mechanics
The only worthwhile contribution of east that has been build upon by west is in field of mathematics.
Some islanded contributions would never count as it was never part of eastern cultures to provide theoretical frameworks hence their inventions could not be developed upon.
Before saying all that you did...Understand what I WROTE
As far as ADVANCEMENT goes, West has only SUCCESSFULLY built up on OLD theories, laws, understanding...Nothing new
I am not an engineer nor do I have interest in Physics so can not talk about those...But I am talking about say Biology....
It is also proved that parents carrying a dead relationship is much worse than single parent as far as psyche of child is concerned.
Well, like I mentioned earlier divorce is an option...but SOCIETY thinks bad of divorcees...
Noe that is putting words in someone's mouth.The fact that i think it to be a socialist conspiracy would have made it clear that i am not in favor of state regulating private affairs.
ok... the state can also say, rape is between the victim and the rapist, PRIVATE AFFAIR...why ask state to pass judgement and punishment? Why select WHAT YOU want and discard WHAT YOU DO NOT WANT? Where is your swinging in extremes now?
But only fundamentalists have this as a default option. Have you heard of evangelical christians theory that if a women become pregnent during rape, she had enjoyed it and it is a just rape.In their view a women suffering rape could shut down her reproductive system.
1stly, it is NOT ONLY fundamentalists but NORMAL human behaviour, NO ONE wants to be 2nd...everyone wants to be 1st and only...FEW do not mind, BUT MAJORITY DO.
Do you also know how much noise was made against such a stupid remark?
