People often spend hundreds of dollars to bury their dogs, cats, birds, goldfish and hamsters. Is this practice morally acceptable? I do feel this is an acceptable moral practice. Animal cruelty is punishable by law. I personally feel if the law can punish you for treating a pet wrong, then the only way to treat pets is like a family member.

that I have read about him made him seem like the nicest guy in the industry, but when you throw rape accusations at someone, you had better make sure that you can back it up. This is where it gets difficult. When Stoya posted this accusation, it wasn’t taken to the police — as far as we know — it was posted on social media. And with that posting came this from November 17th: Now, I don’t want to be skeptical, but it’s pretty strange to drop a truth bomb like that, and then be conveniently out…

The film, “Out of the Darkness”, was a documentary based on how porn is a problem in our world. The film centers around four subjects: former prostitute and porn actress, Shelley Lubben; recovered sex addict, Mark Houck; family therapist, Richard Fitzgibbons; and sexual revolution historian, Judith Reisman. These individuals are more than talking heads, they provided stories about how porn and attitudes about sex had altered their lives. First, the most interesting and eye-opening person that…

prostitution, sex trafficking, porn, and smuggling because many have a poor understanding of these words and “this conceptual misunderstanding often leads to confusion on the part of commentators and policy-makers,and may lead to misconceived policies” (Campana). In addition to this, celebrities also have easier access to the Hollywood scene, considering that they 're part of it. They can help influence how adult magazines are distributed and used. These magazines play a big role in the human…

condemned the film as being pornographic and an insult to the traditional Italian Catholic church. The film with its play on the Italian essence of Hollywood was extravagant and not what could be considered as following the practices of the Catholic Church. But, why then did some believe that aspects of the film point to false spirituality? This falsity was seen in the opening scene as a statue of Jesus Christ was flown over the city, symbolizing what seemed to some as a great awakening. As the…

Vertical and Horizontal Suspension of the ‘Classical,’” which is also by Linda Williams.
