Norms OT

February 25, 2003

Ah, but who is to just what is normal, what my be normal for one person may not

be normal to another. My culture as a Native American is quite different then

the cultures of the white, African Americans, Asians, etc., so what I might

think as normal maybe not be what you preceive as normal.

And the real scarey part is who in this world makes these decesions about being

normal, the scienticts (who stay in dark labs most of the time and do

experiments), the politicians who are more messed up (in my opinion) then most

of the population, the clergy (well we won't even go into that).

Oh, well I have go to class. All this philosophying is wrecking havioc on my

brain and right before a test in Research Methods to. Ahah!!!!

Hope everyone has a great day.

Materialistic, intolerant, judgmental, anti-cultural philistinism is NOT

the human norm.
