Domestic Abuse

Domestic Abuse

EVERYDAY WE SEE ADVERTISING FOR FOOD, ALCOHOL, AND OTHER ITEMS TRYING TO BE SOLD TO US DAILY. WHY NOT ADVERTISE MORE FOR THE HELP THAT IS AVAILABLE TO PEOPLE WHO ARE SUFFERING OF DOMESTIC ABUSE? WE NEED TO HAVE MORE BILLBOARDS, FLYERS, AND COMMERCIALS THAT ADVERTISE THAT THEY AREN'T ALONE AND THERE IS HELP OUT THERE FOR THEM, WETHER IT BE NUMBERS TO DIFFERENT HOTLINES THAT CAN PROVIDE HELP OR HELP GROUPS OR SHELTERS THEY CAN GO TO WITH OUT FEAR OR BEING JUDGED. THOSE DIFFERENT ADVERTISEMENTS SHOULD ALSO MAKE PEOPLE AWARE OF THE DIFFERENT TYPES OF ABUSE THERE IS, LET THEM KNOW THAT JUST BECAUSE U DONT SEE BRUISES OR CUTS DOESNT MEAN YOU ARENT A VICTIM. ITS IMPORTANT FOR PEOPLE TO KNOW ITS NOT OKAY TO BE VERBALLY ABUSED, EMOTIONALLY ABUSED, SEXUALLY ABUSED, PHYSICALLY ABUSED OR NEGLECTED. NO ONE DESERVES TO LIVE A LIFE OF ABUSE.

Creationism/Evolution

The scientific theory of evolution states that all life forms today have developed from a single cell, or a few different cells. Creationist believe that life on Earth just happened, and that humans did not evolve, but appeared as we look today. People believing in creationism think that the theory of evolution is false and that the scientist that are coming up with the facts are "anti-God." The Creationist think that if students are taught the theory of evolution, it would interfere with the religious beliefs of how the Bible interprets the Divine Creation of man. The schools should provide a class as an elective where both topics are discussed and let sudents decide on their own, with parental consent. I personally believe in the Evolution theory, because they have based it on the scientific method, and it has some kind of proof. I am not saying that Creationism is wrong, it's just a little harder for me to rely on something that is based on belief.
