Gay's Teaching Today's Youth

prompt Human Rights v. Majority Rule

Alot of people say that gay's should not let people know about the way they choose to live thier lives . Some say that they should not hide thier choice of lifestyle . But when it involves today's youth , the line must be drawn at some point .

From a moral standpoint there is no questioning it , women and men are supposed to be married to someone of the opposite sex , not the same sex . It is every person's own right to make their own choices in life . From a social standpoint , I personally think it is a wrong choice to make . I have a child who is two years old , and when I think of who will be teaching him when he is in school I don't really care for the idea of his teacher being someone living that type of lifestyle . Teachers have many responsibilities , one of is to set an example for thier students and I personally do not think that is a good example to be setting . This choice of life does not affect someone's ability to teach but it does not send a good message to the students .
It is morally wrong to be gay . Even the military has a '' Don't ask, Don't tell '' rule . Even though i do not agree with their type of lifestyle , I do think it takes alot of nerve to come out in the open and reveal thier choice.

From a political standpoint , what else is to be said but politics . I think that majority of politions are '' fence jumpers '' meaning that they will vote for just about anything on any given day , depending on which way they get the most votes for . Some politions take the stand of being for gay's and gay marrage . Very few say that they are for gay marrage .

Even though I the Bible says that it is a sin to have same sex relations people still chose to do so . I do not personally agree with their choice , but I do not judge someone for the lifestyle that they choose . Politically , gay or not gay a vote is a vote .

prompt:Right or Wrong.
How many times have you seen something, or heard of something that someone said or did, and you could not believe what you have just heard, or what you have just seen? Watching the news, or reading a newspaper, you learn about all kinds of things going on in today's society. Some things make you smile, and some things make you just shake you head in disgust, and ask yourself; what's wrong with people? Don't they know right from wrong?

I believe everyone is taught some type of morals, and manners when they are being raised as a child. I think that alot of times people are to quick to lay blame on how a person was treated as a child or raised. Granted, parents should try their best to teach their children right from wrong, but their teachings only go so far. That person has got to want to do right also. I have seen more than one time, and I am sure you have to, a person doing something, or saying something that you know that their parents would not have tolerated when they were little. When someone does something mean or wrong, they should be punished. I also believe when someone does something right or good then they should be rewarded. I am not telling you to snap every person's head off that does something that you don't think is right, but maybe explain your views on why you don't think what they did was appropriate. Just the same, if someone does something you agree with then speak up and say so. I know there are always exceptions to the rules in every thing but if everyone tried this, I think that the world would be a lot less stressful place to live.

Therefore, I do think that people know right from wrong. But sometimes, I think they might need a little guidance or reassurance every know and again. If you think you are someone that could maybe do a little more good or rights things in you life, then maybe you could start by finding someone you know that is doing wrong or going down the wrong path, then maybe you could talk to them and you could both try to change together. I know I have some down falls of my own that I could definitely work on. What about you?

perception

When you perceive something, it is just another way of saying that you are aware of it.

Perceiving something is the actual action of doing so. But perception is how a person puts it

all together.


When you have heard something, seen something,read something, or just heard

something, the way you interpret the information obtained by you is called your perception

of something. A lot of times there is more than one way for something to be perceived ,as a

matter of fact, most of the times there are more than one way to perceive things. That is why it

is so important to listen closely to someone, or something when you find yourself interested into

a conversation. Because when you think you have heard something, or seen something you

could be just not hearing all of the story and facts, or you could just be hearing or seeing only on

side of a problem or story. That is why it is important to listen closely and if you think you did

not hear something correctly or do not agree with something it is important to speak and say

something or to ask questions.



I know that I have heard somethings said and I took them the wrong way, and it has

caused problems,and it was not meant the way I took it or I did not hear the person completely

or I did not let the person finish and it all could have been avoided had I just listened better or

been not so quick to judge. But, on the other hand that person could have also watched what

she said and it also might have avoided the problem. Which brings me to another point also

watch what you say, how you say it, and who you say it to will also help from keeping any kind

of problems from any type of misunderstanding.



I think is very important for all people to know that everything that they do, or say can be

heard, or seen at anytime therefore they should act and talk as if they were before an audience

anytime they take action on anything. The same could also be said about the people perceiving

what is said or done your perception of their actions may not be the right one so stay open

minded, but strong hearted.
