My dream monopoly grows broader nightly. -Gabe.

P.S. I was distressed to find after you left that I had a very simple retort to the the querie "Who would you turn to when asking the question "How do people live in Communist China?" I had agreed with you on "A Sociologist" but after thinking about it further i realized i could have said "A person living in communist china." So if we did define define a sociologist as a anthropologist of the present, he has once again been outdone by any member of the current society under discussion because they would understand the society better than any outside observer could. I'm not trying to be a smart ass, and i actually was pleased when i thought i'd found the relevance of sociology. but now its gone again, so if you can help me find it again, please retort. Thanks, and sorry.

So then the teacher of that sociological lesson was the person living in communist China. In that situation though, you would be the sociologist. Sociology to me is an incredibly important study because it is the only way people, who otherwise would with outright ignorance judge other groups, can attain a full analysis and understanding of another people. Today, Americans all over can't understand the motivations and actions of Al-Qaeda or Hizbollah, which are two groups primarily fueled by a cultural threat. Today, Americans all over are trying to marginalize homosexuals and oppress them by judging them by their own values, how is this not a relevant topic of our society? I could think of a multitude of these examples, and the core, the goal of all this study is to prove that these people and their cultures should be treated with tolerance and respect.
