Possible Things to Say...

It can't be easy being a parent. Before I commence, I'd like to pay my respects to all parents in the world: God bless you! I have always found it so cute when kids start saying what they want to be when they grow up (of course half of them end up by being something completely diverse of what they had initially planned): ballerina, fireman, police officer, doctor, singer etc. And parents always bear proud and shiny faces. However I wonder which look their countenance would bear, and what reaction they’d have, if their kids would convey their wish to be an undertaker, for example... But there is worse... Please allow me to share 4 unusual professional paths that kids could dream of pursuing; and the possible things their parents could tell them. I. “Mom, dad; I want to be a whore.” Possible reaction : oh sure, darling; if that is your dream job. Of course the family will support your decision...when you’re 60. Until then go to school, finish your

Positive Discrimination...

…What the bloody hell does this mean? Last week, I heard some disturbing news: gypsy children are receiving their academic education in a container, separated from the other kids (who are being lectured in a recently refurbished school). This class is comprised of 6-16 years old children – all mixed together. This is happening in the Boa Negra primary school, in Barcelos (North of Portugal). The justification offered, by a governmental institution (that oversees educational matters), is that the school is executing a positive discrimination (plus, it is not a mere container, it is one with A/C: oh, that makes it all better, doesn’t it?). Discrimination : “The practice of treating one person or group of people less fairly or less well than other people or groups”. How can treating these gypsy kids less fairly even be considered positive? The gypsy community is known for not allowing their female children to go to school – despite what the law says (and in

Complement of State & Church: Path to Peace?

Gothic Bathroom - Jean Baptiste Mallet The nihilists, who can't be bothered to exercise self-discipline, will argue that Religion is the "opium of the people", a control system that precludes creativity (I'd say Da Vinci, Caravaggio and others would disagree), food for the simple minded, the gullible; and the root of wars. But the fact is: religion is the foundation of culture and it can contribute to peace and understanding.

Me Young You Old, You Young Me Old

Love is a magical feeling: it brings light into the household of darkness; it bestows upon you happiness; it softens the hardest of hearts; it melts the iciest of beings and helps us to evolve. Love ignores the boundaries of age. However, society has managed, once again, to express its bigotry, lack of sensibility; poor judgment and, foment sexism even when it comes to feelings. Who the bloody hell decided that a lady (let's say, in her 40's or more) should not be involved with young men (for example, in their 20's or 30's)? Moreover, why are they labelled as cougars or pumas when they do so? We all know that whenever a lady falls in love with a younger man, people will either say "Oh, he's after her money" or "Oh, he's seeking for adventure with a more experienced woman" or even "What a waste! So many beautiful young ladies around, and he chose to be involved with an old bad". Let's analyse these ridiculous

Remember Global Warming

Dear reader, I hope this epistle finds you in good spirits. When you hear about “global warming” what is your immediate thought? The environment, I assume. Today, however, I challenge you to go beyond that notion and dare, along with me, to behold other forms under which the globe is getting warmer. Remember, the temperature is getting higher in the Muslim World, causing successive tempests that surely will lead to a dramatic political-climate change. This is the case in countries like Libya, Yemen, Jordan, Algeria, Tunisia, Egypt, Iran, Lebanon, Syria (although still latently) and... Insha’Allah ...the future state of Palestine; where people are set to fight for Democracy (that is, free speech, the right to information, the right to assemble, multi-partisanship, free elections, access to the same opportunities for everyone, market liberalisation etc). Although hopeful about these changes, I cannot hide my concern about Libya: when Tsunami-Gadhafi is out of contr

Don't you just love People?

It’s funny how people react to certain situations. I always say that humans are equal, that their similarities surpass their differences; however I must admit that the cultural factor affects pretty much the way people will respond to a particular event. Today I shall present 3 situations, 3 possible reactions to them by 3 cultures (African, Latin and Anglo-Saxon – for they are the ones I know best):
