.... to me and my brother. What did Debbie and her “sister” do so wrong? Years later, I am convinced that Debbie and her “sister” were a lesbian couple, and the incident at the McDonald’s was a bunch of stupid, homophobic morons. These days crimes targeting gay and lesbian couples are heard on the news frequently, and it sickens me that such ignorance exists in America. I grew up attending a church that viewed homosexuality as a sin, but my personal feelings would always conflict. I believe the argument can be derived from the nature vs. nurture perspectives. .....

Today, more than 99 percent of the world's food supply comes from land, the continous production of adequate food supply is directly dependent on land, water, and energy. As the population increases, so does the amount of resources needed. Even though they are not depleted, they are declining at a significant rate because they are divided by such a large number. Fertile cropland is also a big concern. The world's cropland per capita .....
