Changing social connections

 Do you think Americans today are more isolated due to technology? Explain why or why not, and whether you think this issue is something we should be concerned about now or in the future. 



I do believe Americans are more isolated due to technology. People are more inclined to post a status on facebook, tweet, email, text, etc. Rather than talk to the person face to face. It used to be when I didn't have a cell phone that I would have to go over to my friend's house unannounced to just talk to them. We should defiantly be concerned about it NOW! Who knows where we will be in the future when we have children or our children have children. We already have things like skype, whats next?

Nature vs. Nurture

I believe nature has a bigger influence on individuals than nurture does. You can be raised one way, and end up completely different than you were taught. With nature you can be raised in any way yet you are in some way going to act the same as every male or female out there. There are just some things you can't help, such as sexual attractment. Your parents teach you to find the one you love and save yourself for that one person, and in some cases people do. The human nature is to satisfy your needs and sexual wants. There are a lot of people out there that are raised to be Christian and practice celibacy yet some are bound to veer off that path, only because they seek that satisfaction.
