Point Of View Indigenous Peoples
718 words
"Are These Not Also Men?" In 1511, Fray Antonio
Montesinos spoke the words, "Are these not also
men?" His famous quote was a response to the
mistreatment of the indigenous peoples that
inhabited the Americas, by the conquering Spanish.
Immediately upon discovering and colonizing the
New World a widespread debate arose in regards to
the usage and treatment of the native Indians.

classify the Indians. Many people believed that
the Indians were not human ...

the process of logical thought. The Bible

Wilmut And Dr Unicellular Organisms
1,428 words
The biological definition of a clone is an
organism that has the same genetic information as
another organism or organisms ("Cloning", 1997).
From this definition and from information about
the science behind cloning, my current view on
cloning is that it is ethical. This statement
ignores information about how we can misuse
cloning and what consequences occur when the
procedure is unsuccessful. I currently do not
think cloning should be used until it is
perfected. I doubt however that we will a...

Pine Trees Low Intensity

The long leaf pine community, also known as a high
pine community, occurs on well-drained soils and

frequent, low-intensity fires, which occur every
one to ten years, to open seed cones and allow the
community to regenerate. The long leaf pine
community is characterized by the presence of the

Sri Lanka Rainy Season
2,012 words
Gliricidia was first used in Mexico to provide
shade for cacao plantations. It is from this use
that the Aztecs labeled the tree "Madre de Cacao"
(Mother of cacao). Later, in the 18 th Century,
Gliricidia was brought to Sri Lanka to provide
shade for coffee plantations. Today, the tree's
long leafy branches are used to shade vanilla and
tea crops as well. The tree is also known in
Spanish as "Palo de Hierrro" (Tree of Iron) which
eludes to Gliricidia's hard, heavy wood. This
makes it ideal for f...

Hemp: A Crop With no Future For This Society
Throughout many areas of the United States a
small, slender plant can be found growing in the
wild. It is commonly referred to as hemp. Hemp is
a plant that comes from the Cannabis sativa
family. Hemp looks strikingly similar to marijuana
and can very easily be mistaken for it, but these
two plants are far from being the same. The major
difference between the two is that hemp contains
no chemicals that produce the same euphoric effect
produced by mari...

Richard Seed God Created

Cloning has been going on for decades now,
although for most people cloning wasnt a part of
their everyday vocabulary until about 4 years ago.

the U. K. cloned a frog by transplanting the cell
of a tadpole into a frog egg. That was a major
scientific breakthrough; the next step was to
produce a clone from an adult cell. For about 30
years nothing major happened. Then, after more
than 271 tries before...

Stephen Mullins Hemp, Why It Should Be Legalized
When the subject of hemp is brought up, most of us
think of an illegal plant that produces a
hallucinogenic high when the flowers or leaves are
eaten or smoked. A plant that corrupts our youth,
causing our teenagers to drop out of school or use
the drug as a stepping stone for harder drugs such
as cocaine or heroin. Does any of this sound
familiar? What do you think would happen to these
beliefs you have if you were to find out the

farms Stalin hoped to increase agricultural
productivity, to create grain res...
