I just read the sequence of the discussion

Superior in what sense? Impulse control? Less inclined to use drugs?

Yes and no. Giving the patient what they want in this instance would go against the Hippocratic oath especially if there aren't any available doctors....

Great post!

Elaborate, how?

When I mention borders I was merely talking about the separation of countries ergo the border of Southern California is Mexico which is a different co...

Which is why I said the concept of culture when looking at the United States for example, is complex because culture is not static, rather it can beco...

I gave you my explanation which was quite clear, to which you claimed that it wasn't, and that it sounded circular, well, I disagree. Considering that...

I like you Your ability to put words together is interesting enough for me to say, you ought to write a book one day.

I hope this was sarcasm and I hope there was a method to this madness. I take offense at someone who pokes fun at someone's mental health whether they...

This doesn't change the fact that psychology being a branch from philosophy, provides value through the structural reasoning that many researchers and...

Um, ok

LOL okay if you don't get it you don't get it but I explained it clear. You're thinking too much into something so simple.

I have yet to see that and so with that, all I have is your word and that is not good enough for me considering this administration politically says o...

I hear you and I agree. I'm not saying I literally like it, was just being facetious about it.

I like how you ignored me when I answered your question directly. Apparently you're looking for confirmation bias.

Thanks for this explanation you actually explained it very good BC. I agree with you.

In regards to I'm asking you to elaborate

Right. I'm waiting for his answer to that as well and to see if he can provide proof of that.

I prefer not to say, I don't like to air people out like that therefore, to not single one or two people out I'd like to make it as general as possibl...

Really? Do you have research evidence or is this your opinion, because I have evidence.

No. Because a person that hates someone for their skin pigmentation is a liability and cannot be trusted to give equal treatment to others in a hospit...
