Blog On Bad Language

Swearing is becoming a more increased bad element of society at the moment. It seems to be becoming a more acceptable way of talking in this country at the moment. But again, jus like smoking and drinking, i feel that it is a way of trying to showw a macho side and to intimidate people. Its just evolved into a more common thing to hear now.

A lot of people are brought up differently and the way some parents are these days, with age and thought, i feel that it can go from bad to worse. Swearing is a bad way of speec as it a way of showing someone disrespect and unrest.

Blog On Alcohol

Alcohol to me and to a lot of people now is seen as a drug. When looking at what it can do to you over a space of time, and the state it puts you in, is quite off putting. But just like nicotine, its addictive and keeps you hooked no matter how much you dont want to drink. I think that it starts when your young.

Because I know that I started drinking at quite a young age. I believe its because you want to feel tough when your drinking, and also to try and fit in with the crowd that drinks.

It was always seen as cool to drink as a young teenager so the thought of drinking was always a fun prospect. Now its to rink out of enjoyment, and to socialise. Theres no need to try and fit in. But if people could just stop like that i think a lot of them would want to do so.

Blog On Religion

Whilst doing this blog, i thought it would be good to give my views on religion, and how i think it can be placed in the category of being bad. People who are religous I can repect, and I believe everyone is entitled to believe what they want. But when it is peoples beliefs causing wars and killings of people, i don't see much point in it.

To me, i'm not religous in anyway shape or size, because I believe in evolution and science. I think that its a hard thing to believe in something there is no proof whatsoever in. I feel this way about all religions because believing in a world beyond our death limits us to what we do in our lives. Following these beliefs stop you from doing things that you deep down want to do.

This is why i feel that relgion is bad. I think eventually religion will cause another world war, which I thinks pretty stupid seeing as nothing is backed up.

Blog On Drugs

My opinion on drugs is probably quite a bit different to what most people think. To me drugs are a way of escaping reality. When we had the lecture on hallucinogenics, i found what the lecturer had to say was very interesting. Drugs became very popular through the 60s.

To me a lot of drugs are used so that people can relax or forget about the stress related activities of real life. A lot of people say that all drugs are wrong and that they all should be made illegal. But drugs are another sense of medication. certain drugs might be better for some people who might be dealing with depression, or something else that makes them struggle from day to day. I do think though that drugs are over idolised and it can be seen quite easy for young teenagers to feel that drugs aren't as bad as people say, because of how they are portrayed through tv shows.

The link below shows that scientists are using drugs in order to boost peoples brain power. This is another reason why i feel that drugs are always gonna be a part of society, but still there will be a large amount of people that will be against drugs completely.
