THE ADVERSARIAL SYSTEM
Christians vs Muslims; Pro-Choice vs Pro-Life; Labour vs Management; Plaintiff vs Defendant; the Good Guys vs the Bad Guys.
Whichever way you cut it, Western Society (and quite possibly the entire planet...but, since I've only experienced Western Society, I won't make any pretenses of being knowledgeable on other societies) appears to love being separated into factions and then fighting over who is Right.

Two Fathoms
YOU TAKE THE HIGH ROAD...I'LL TAKE THE LOW ROAD
As some people know, Mark Twain's real name was Samuel Clemens. What I didn’t know was that although Samuel Clemens and Mark Twain shared the same body, they were two very different people…a real life Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde.
But the purpose of this article is to investigate, not necessarily answer, one question: Do we live in a two-faced society?

Trust the Trusting Trusters
NEWTON'S THIRD LAW
If there's anything that I firmly believe in is that nature has to be balanced. I'm talking about things like the water cycle - Matter & Anti-matter - cause and effect.
But, the purpose of this article is to investigate (not necessarily answer) one question: is our society's moral code currently in a state of imbalance?

Happy-Happy, Joy-Joy
THIS POST ISN'T ABOUT THE WILL SMITH MOVIE
The Pursuit Of Happiness is at the core of people's lives in our society. I'll even go one step further and say that it is the only reason for living...after all, life is way too long to be miserable.
But, the purpose of this article is to investigate (not necessarily answer) one question: Are people really Pursuing Happiness? or is it more accurate to say that they are Pursuing Pleasure?

Freedom is as Freedom does
FREEEEEEDDDDDOOOOMMMMM!
Freedom is the pinnacle of Modern Society and typically associated with one's ability to make their own choices and express their opinions freely.
But, the purpose of this article is to investigate (not necessarily answer) one question: Why do we have Laws in a Free Society?
