    problems. These problems include the Helium Shortage‚ the precious metal shortage‚ and overpopulation on earth. We could also gain new knowledge by possibly communicating with more intelligent extra terrestrials. There are a lot of things that the human race as a whole‚ has not figured out how to do yet.

    around me and the presidential debate showed where the presidential candidates are in that position. Throughout world history‚ governments have violated and ignored the human and civil rights of their citizens.

    article “The Worst Mistake of the Human Race” by Jared Diamond‚ he argues that agriculture “was in many ways a catastrophe” and “with agriculture came the gross social and sexual inequality‚ the disease and despotism‚ that curse our existence.” Although this may be somewhat true‚ many would disagree. Agriculture doesn’t lead to inequality nor diseases. The differences between humans lead to inequality and poor agriculture leads to diseases. Differences between humans such as their sex and what they

For example‚ there is a "Black culture" or "Latino culture"

    Jared Diamond is… interesting. The argument that Jared Diamond makes in his article‚ “The Worst Mistake in the History of the Human Race”‚ is completely refutable. There is very little evidence in the article that makes sense‚ and most of it appears to be that Diamond just has a grudge against the laziness of the modern world. This is where Diamond and I agree.
