Mind's Eye Greece debt.

I  think the banksters are playing  a sad game full of greed and hatred. When Greece entered the euro zone the exchange rate was fixed and unchangeable at 340.750 Drachma to 1 euro.
That was a dictated and unchanable rate. In a way that is a good idea and because if Greece leaves the euro the starting point for the Drachma is already fixed.  I know the banksters will not like it but the moment it converts back to the drachma Greeces Euro debt is directly  converted Drachmas because they are no longer in the Euro zone. The fixed exchange determined by European bank 340.75 to 1 euro Greek debt is instantly converted to the drachma the currency in which they will pay their debt and the amount is fixed and no longer changeable.
Because the amount of debt is now in drachma the games the world bank want to play with the drachma's value in the currency exchange market becomes the banksters problem.

The women dressing sense developed in the west gradually and it was not copying others but an indigenous matter and as it was a gradual process the western society as a whole was able to accept it. But in India it was not so, some educated girls started copying the west and Indian society as a whole was not prepared for it, and that is the reason that some backward sections of our society find it unacceptable, but still it has nothing to do with rape, which is a criminal act and done by criminal people. The reasons that such people give for it is just a justification for their criminal deed and not the real reason.

The argument that there are rapes in India because girls are not raised up as equals with comparison to boys is not correct. If today girls are entering into the workforce is not as a result of girls asserting themselves but because their families are giving them a chance to make a career for themselves. The parents, brothers, and husbands are co-operating with the girls, they are encouraging the girls to go out and become career girls and this is not limited to just the urban population but also applicable to villagers. Consider the position of women a few centuries back in Europe and America, they were just housewives and were not encouraged to become doctors and engineers. India was an occupied country for a long time and the proceed of this land was taken overseas and the people as a mass were poor and uneducated, and as such women did not have chance to go out and work. There were a few jobs available and it was taken by boys.

Today as India is progressing more and more women are going out to work even those belonging to the villages. Rapes are not happening because girls are not considered as equal to men , but because of a criminal mindset of some people. Formerly even women of the west were wearing discrete clothes and it has taken time for women sexuality to assert itself in the west. As the west is the leader in this respect the issue of attire was never raised as there was no one to compare with. Here as women are becoming modern, including their families, comparisons are drawn with the west because it is there to compare with.

It is the uneducated and backward people here in India who are making a issue of dress in the name of culture and it is criminal mentality in some people which is making them rape and terrorize girls. Today girls are making friends with boys and it is accepted by their families, but India still holds spiritual values and it is expected that the relationship of the sexes remain pure, just as it was the case with the west.

I have not seen the documentary but from what I have heard it appears that the cause of rapes in India is being said to be due to unequal upbringing of girls and boys. But this is far from the truth, Indians are going through the same phase of development that the west went through a century ago. WE are progressing as a people and very fast, and if there is crime, and I consider rape to be a crime,  it is because of the criminal mentality of some people. Criminals always justify their actions they never say that they are doing wrong but lay the blame on others and as such the statements of the rapists and their backward advocates should not be taken as the truth. Rape occurs just like anywhere else because of cheap mentality of some people and the justification given by some people is due to a prejudiced mindset. Indians as a people are progressive and crime should be taken to be what it is and not otherwise.

Time published an article making the following points on India:

1. More rapes are being reported now: Along with the modernization of society, more Indian women are being educated and are going out to work. They are breaking out of the subservient mold that society had given to them and are more independent. While this means they are more likely to be sexually abused, it also means they are more likely — compared with women of a previous generation — to report rapes and confront sexual predators. In the three months after the Delhi gang rape, the number of rapes reported in the city more than doubled to 359, from the 143 reported in January-March of 2012. This doesn't necessarily mean more rapes are happening now, just that more women are emboldened to come out and report.

2. India actually has a high conviction rate for rape: According to the Guardian, just 7% of reported rapes in the U.K. resulted in co

Re: Mind's Eye Re: We are going backwards.

I  know the ancient Malta people. Stone hedge era liked their weman with large hips and thighs.  Looking at the statues that survived I would not consider them unattractive.  I think the ideal that is being passed on today leave a lot to be desired. Especially  the american fashion models being promoted today.
What should make an lady appealing today is being intelligent and healthy. I personally have a preference for little  to no makeup as I prefer ladies that don't need to hide who they really are. Purfume if used needs to be very light as I do not particularly enjoy the burning sensation cause be heavy and cheap perfume.. come to think of it a lot of expensive ones also thanks to the gullible people easily swayed by marketers. .
I think that comes from the heavy promotion of " me, myself and I "

Sure Allan, but these criminals seek excuses to justify themselves to others and themselves. As a matter of fact there is no excuse for any crime and a criminal has to bear the consequences of his act.

The women dressing sense developed in the west gradually and it was not copying others but an indigenous matter and as it was a gradual process the western society as a whole was able to accept it. But in India it was not so, some educated girls started copying the west and Indian society as a whole was not prepared for it, and that is the reason that some backward sections of our society find it unacceptable, but still it has nothing to do with rape, which is a criminal act and done by criminal people. The reasons that such people give for it is just a justification for their criminal deed and not the real reason.

The argument that there are rapes in India because girls are not raised up as equals with comparison to boys is not correct. If today girls are entering into the workforce is not as a result of girls asserting themselves but because their families are giving them a chance to make a career for themselves. The parents, brothers, and husbands are co-operating with the girls, they are encouraging the girls to go out and become career girls and this is not limited to just the urban population but also applicable to villagers. Consider the position of women a few centuries back in Europe and America, they were just housewives and were not encouraged to become doctors and engineers. India was an occupied country for a long time and the proceed of this land was taken overseas and the people as a mass were poor and uneducated, and as such women did not have chance to go out and work. There were a few jobs available and it was taken by boys.

Today as India is progressing more and more women are going out to work even those belonging to the villages. Rapes are not happening because girls are not considered as equal to men , but because of a criminal mindset of some people. Formerly even women of the west were wearing discrete clothes and it has taken time for women sexuality to assert itself in the west. As the west is the leader in this respect the issue of attire was never raised as there was no one to compare with. Here as women are becoming modern, including their families, comparisons are drawn with the west because it is there to compare with.

It is the uneducated and backward people here in India who are making a issue of dress in the name of culture and it is criminal mentality in some people which is making them rape and terrorize girls. Today girls are making friends with boys and it is accepted by their families, but India still holds spiritual values and it is expected that the relationship of the sexes remain pure, just as it was the case with the west.

I have not seen the documentary but from what I have heard it appears that the cause of rapes in India is being said to be due to unequal upbringing of girls and boys. But this is far from the truth, Indians are going through the same phase of development that the west went through a century ago. WE are progressing as a people and very fast, and if there is crime, and I consider rape to be a crime,  it is because of the criminal mentality of some people. Criminals always justify their actions they never say that they are doing wrong but lay the blame on others and as such the statements of the rapists and their backward advocates should not be taken as the truth. Rape occurs just like anywhere else because of cheap mentality of some people and the justification given by some people is due to a prejudiced mindset. Indians as a people are progressive and crime should be taken to be what it is and not otherwise.

Time published an article making the following points on India:

1. More rapes are being reported now: Along with the modernization of society, more Indian women are being educated and are going out to work. They are breaking out of the subservient mold that society had given to them and are more independent. While this means they are more likely to be sexually abused, it also means they are more likely — compared with women of a previous generation — to report rapes and confront sexual predators. In the three months after the Delhi gang rape, the number of rapes reported in the city more than doubled to 359, from the 143 reported in January-March of 2012. This doesn't necessarily mean more rapes are happening now, just that more women are emboldened to come out and report.

2. India actually has a high conviction rate for rape: According to the Guardian, just 7% of reported rapes in the U.K. resulted in co

Mind's Eye Commercialism

Was reading a book written just before WW1 and came across this idea.

only come when the ungainly
"lump" of sin is broken, and the verb "to have," which expresses
its reaction to existence, is ejected from the centre of your
consciousness. Then your attitude to life will cease to be
commercial, and become artistic.

That statement was written almost a century ago. We have the same problem in today's world.
Just thought i would share now everyone has had time to recover.

Avoid: Murder, Rape and enslavement of others.
