  • Karma212 asked why people are so closed minded?

    Do you think its because people have already learned the truth behind something, through experience or education. Like alesson already learned in all possible angles. We all know one plus one is two but some people have been influenced to say one plus one is possibly millions because they take a simple equation out of context. They may say one man plus one woman equals potentially millions because of procreation. An openminded person can see this person believes so because of some religious philosophy based on a scientific fact. But it is taken out of context . We all have experienced one plus one is simply two so we close our minds to any other variation because we could have all kinds of trouble in life to think otherwise. We realize alot of people are easily impressed or influenced by a new teaching or viewpoint and change who they are every minute. but to be sane and functional or just fair to allow a person to explore, learn , grow and try out different philosophies we stay closed

  • Some people wonder about being overweight did you know ...in some cultures of africa and the middle east great

    In some cultures of Africa and the middle east great big fat women are a status symbol, the bigger and blacker you are the wealthier and more successful and sought after you are. They are revered to be great breeders and fertility is a very desirable trait men pay very high dowries to a family to marry great big fat black women. So it depends on your cultural upbringing. If you watch foreign tv shows or do a little research you will understand better. Once these gals become assimilated here in America their traditional values often never change.
