Yahoo Answers Galore !!

Few questions from Yahoo Answers! Which got me thinking and I thought about sharing my replies to you guys as well.

1. Are concepts such as patriotism and citizenship reasons why people in the world are so divided?

Patriotism is something inherent to humans; they like the place the live in and fight for it. They talk highly about it, They do all things of stuff to show patriotism, But It’s actually a fictious thing,

Just like countries, states and several other physical borders of the world, They exist because of the difference in the people across the border.

Countries are formed because of differences and countries are not the cause for the differences.

You have similar habits of food, shelter and behavior then most probably you would learn somehow to communicate with people like you, so 'people like you' would have a common language and a common taste for food, climate and other local appearances. They ultimately form a tribe and if large enough form a kingdom and it continues till it is a country.

Like wise thousand other people find their own 'People like them' community and form separate tribes and countries and they defend their country, which implies their belongings, women, children, the place you love, the place you grew up, all the people you like and all the 'people like you'. This is patriotism. This is a primitive feeling but with deep roots.

In today’s' cosmopolitan cities, patriotism is, but a tool to intimidate and insult people from other countries. It has lost its meaning and the very purpose of feeling 'belonged to a particular place'. Patriotism today is a joke but still it has some meaning who work and fight for their countries and its betterment.

2. Would you kill baby Hitler if the situation is that he is destined to grow up to be the monster he was?

(You can't answer "I'll raise him differently" .

So, think about it..take everything into consideration. It would have prevented horrible events like the holocaust but what if it wasn't for Hitler,say,your parents never met? )

My Answer:

No, can't do... can't kill a child no matter what he turns out to be. Even if you're from the future and want to change something, definitely killing won't solve problems. Even Hitler did that. He didn't solve any problems that he thought was endangering Germany at that time; he was a patriot, and a true one at that. But he was fooling enough to believe in Genocide of the Jews.

Killing doesn't solve any problems it'll always bring more, If Hitler was killed at an early stage there were lot of people who supported and believed in the holocaust, those would certainly carry on the Nazi regime without hitler, with a different name, different leader, same world war. Nothing changes except the name of the people who did that. Bad things would always happen.

Tobi is not Madara Uchiha and that is my verdict.

1. Zetsu’s Approach Zetsu keeps the name Tobi and he is the only person who is very close to Tobi, since he is a spy and has the most information in the entire Naruto universe, he exists everywhere planted beforehand blended with the environment. Zetsu also wonders how much Kabuto knows about them, in vary tone. They’ve got something to hide other than their fighting powers. Kabuto already knows most of their secrets which they’ve got hidden even from Akatsuki members to avoid an internal clash for power. 2. Tobi’s awe of Kabuto’s Re-animation. Okay, this is very very intriguing. Madara Uchiha is afraid of something; it’s also a very best kept secret. since Kabuto promises that he hasn't told a soul. Madara who can analyze and formulate any jutsu asks “how did you do this?” Who is he afraid of, let us think back, He is not afraid of anyone. He has had only reverence for Hashirama, even then it cannot be first or the second Hokages since they were sealed by the third H...

Working!! is fun and satisfying

Working!! is an anime about the interesting things that happen in a family restaurant called Wagnaria, primarily about the staff that work there. Every character is quirky in someway or the other and it makes for some good comedy and drama. I’d like to go over the characters in the series in the order of their importance and talk about how I feel about them. Taneshima Popura: Taneshima is a high school senior who is very short, she is confused for an elementary student most of the time.  She is very upbeat and works hard, but has a huge complex about her height and is sometimes pranked upon by fellow workers in Wagnaria. Takanashi Souta: Takanashi is a junior to Taneshima and is recruited by her to work in Wagnaria at the start of the series. He likes all things tiny and deeply adores Taneshima.  He is level headed most of the time and works hard. He has three elder sisters and one younger sister whom he has to ...
