That isn't the experience here where the wealth is now more evenly divided and the schools fully mixed. Kids breed with those they are around. Simple as that.
Of course it will. Do you not recall the Archimedes Cattle Problem about the island with the black cows, yellow cows and the white cows? The White Race is 5% of the planet. Simple math requires this to be a steadily shrinking number and in fact only modern medicine keeps it that large or it would probably be down to 3%. Jink the numbers in the old Cattle problem to today's proportions, then run the iterations. In less than 300 generations one race disappears. Simple math. Natural consequence of global transit.
Lovestick. You are right. Kill those kids off. A nice airborne sterility drug/virus will do that. Oh wait, no need. In Congo and other emancipated places they are already killing off the women. That will solve the hungry child problem you whine about and free us to focus on the much more important to survival of the eco system animals.
Socrates, there are already synthetic ivories. The issue is the superstitious fools who believe only real ivory will cure impotence, battle cancers, chase spirits, etc.
Chicken meat can and is being grown in vats (experimentally). Something similar will work for ivory, if someone cares enough to spend a few bucks to get the ball rolling.
It was a mercy killing. The existence of an affair was irrelevant. This is why every spouse should have their own small pistol. Had it been her own pistol, no one would have cared, nor could they then question.
Mimi, my point is been there done that. Does she regret it? Yeah. Problem she faces is I will never know if her regret is the act, creating the situation, or simply that I found out about it. Therefore there will never be anything more for her here. Do I miss her, my days of blissful ignorance when I thought she was happy here? Of course. Would I be stupid enough to repeat that trust in her? Never again. Therefore, as it should become with you too, why would you? It would be doomed from get go in only more heart ache for you. Sure, if the others all died in a plane crash or something like that he would crawl back, but you would always know you were not his first choice. For that reason alone, moving on is justified.
Find someone for whom you are his most desired choice. Someone you can trust because they won't hurt you that way again.
" has found a thriving trade in ivory items after a survey of websites in the UK, France, Germany, Portugal, Spain, and Germany."
One not touched on question. How many of the buyers are of ethnic white blood, and how many are immigrants from the other countries you mentioned?
I ask because in America those few I know of who seek ivory or bear gall bladders or or tiger dust or similar, very few of them are of European ancestry. Sometime I think immigration here should require a written and interview test to eliminate the superstitious or ignorant.
Noting also Mammoth ivory is prettier and involves killing nothing.
I think the world's economy was better when I was young. At least the NYC economy was good. Factories kept folks employed. I never knew of a classmate who was hungry. Foodstamps were in the future and there were few folks on welfare. John V. Lindsy was yet to come.
Usually in my house there was beef, almost every day. Big prime rib roasts my Mom would buy and they would last for days. Sometimes spare ribs in the pressure cooker. Potatoes. Spinach. Corn. All that.
At $15+ a pound I don't buy large prime rib roasts anymore. Chicken is more likely. Maybe once every two weeks a steak. Many days I eat home caught venison. I grow potatoes too. Also my own spinach. Sure I buy some once in awhile, but if I can grow it too, why not do so?
Maybe 30 years ago is when I stopped visiting folks at dinner time without calling first.
Durn it, I was sleepy, but now I am thinking of baking some rolls..
Seriously, Raphael, I suspect the answer is complex. Einstein maintained that when traveling at the speed of light, time stops. Our testing shows he is at least half right as time slows as we accelerate. However never have we accelerated a watch to even a whole percentage of light speed. So the Relativity hypothesis looks good, but remains unproven in that aspect.
In theory, unless it was absorbed by hitting something, original photons from the big bang should still be out there traveling somewhere far away from us. We know that older photons do change frequency from our perspective, so that implies something is happening in a place where time has supposedly stopped. Is there a way a photon could have nothing change on the inside, but have the external frequency change? I am not comfortable with that. Also, can a photon even have an inside? Is a photon not at core merely an information concept with a rest mass of zero? Is the vibrational frequency of a photon not related to the event that launched it, rather than being a functon of the photon itself? I am not sure I have an answer. We have something with no mass and no concept of time but our perception of how we view changes as time passes for us. Very strange.
I am going to have to chew on that. Maybe ask my cat. He understands that stuff better than me. I don't always understand his answers, but I am sure he will have one.
