I like how Americans have taken such festivity to Christmas, it means we are all excited about something in common, it represents unity, hope, joviality and jubilee. But I dislike how Christmas has become two things:
1: Liberal: Christmas has become way to liberal. "We cant offend anyone" they whine. I DONT CARE!!!! Christmas should be what it is, CHRISTMAS not Happy holidays not an Atheistic holiday, because its not! If they dont like it then they dont have to celebrate it.
2:Commercial: I also dislike how the industries take such advantage of Christmas and have assisted the Media in making Christmas a holiday about shopping, cookies and fat men. I am totally for all the add-ons (or most anyways) that Christmas has, but I believe they should be made by the culture and society. By the hearts and minds of the people. Not the Avarice and Greed of the Corporates and the Governments.
Thanks for listening to my little rant, feel free to comment, and Most of all. Merry Christmas ^_^

The Survival of the Americans
We here in America, as a whole, are no longer a unified people. Unified by a common nationalistic feeling, but we lack the cooperation and feeling of unification that existed over 100 years ago. People were unified by something we take for granted completely when we think about the greatness of the USA. USA was an experiment done by the founding fathers. ALL OF WHICH WERE STRONGLY GOD FEARING. Our system of government is destined for success if we are all God-Fearing or at least have the integrity of a true and honorable Christian. Yet we have people running our government who fear only losing power and money. Disgraceful...
I am not trying to convert people here, I am saying that if we want to survive, we have to shape up. We cant just be the present-hedonistic people who care only for themselves. We must become caring and responsible citizens again and then we will begin our ascent into superiority once again.
We are the only country based off of Christianity and thus, the only nation that became so powerful so fast. Its Ironic how people who strive only for power neglect the power that is far greater that can come from honest integrity.

Productivity Series part 4: Diet
Diet:(Sub-point of Climate)The diet of many cultures will affect the productivity. In Germany they drink beer, not too much though, hence their morale is boosted but not enough where their productivity is harmed much...unlike in Ireland and Scotland...In America we have a very full diet on average, thus, high productivity. Vegetarians miss something in their diet and hence are usually less productive on average. Japanese eat A LOT of fish, which is brain food, and hence we come out with a nation who was totally devastated 50 years ago and now has one of the best world economies. Also, the availability of food helps a lot! If you spend half your time looking for food, then you wont have much other time to be productive.

Affects on Productivity Part 2
If you liked the first part, this will be great for you! Climate often has an affect on Productivity. When you think of Boston one of the first things that comes to many peoples minds is colleges*. When we think of Los Angeles we think of Hollywood and beaches*. *(I took a poll with people)* So Boston is in New England and L.A. is in the more sub-tropical part of America. San Francisco is often said to have the most perfect climate in America. And it is also known for homosexuals and rich people. People go there to Hawaii to relax, not to work. In Germany(colder climate) they have had many innovative advances such as automobiles and other things in industry and trade and military. Whilst can you name more than three things great to have come out of Spain(more desirable climate) that are still relevant in today's society? The most advanced place in America is New England, that is where all the work gets done.
Why does Climate have an effect on productivity? One good reason brought to my attention was agriculture. In places with a better climate, such as sub-tropical areas like California, you can throw a seed in the soil, anytime in the year and it will grow with minimal care. In the Northwest and New England you need to care and tend for your crops more, and you need to plan exactly when to plant and harvest your crops. or they will not grow to sufficient sizes or will freeze. Another possible reason is that the places with more desirable climates have people that are more attracted to things of material pleasure for one's self. While in working environments the focus is not necessarily on one's self rather it is on society or community as a whole. We all can assume that a full baseball team is more affective than a team of one.
Another interesting side-note is that many of the World's Superpowers are in the Northern Hemisphere and have cooler climates. USA, Russia, Germany, China, UK, Japan.

In the teachings of the Public...
...School, there, as discovered are major parts or influencing factors left out of many history books. I just found out that, due to Christopher Columbus, roughly 1,000,000 Spaniards and Natives perished. Columbus brought the Reconquista to the New World and killed hundereds of thousands. That is like many other things many History Books leave out, like the fact that Genghis Khan is the reason for unity of trade in Europe and Asia, that Jimmy Carter sold the Panama Canal and that Christianity is the foundation of Laws and Morals in the USA. No wonder so many other nations have by far exceeded our youth in intellectual expectations. We gotta do something about the education in America.

Wisdom-er
Dictionary Definition: One who must be able to Master what they say so that their utterings are exactly what they mean and are irrefutable.
Wisdomers are few unfortunately, and I don't consider myself a wisdomer, but I am working on it. Everyone can see different people as wisdomers. I see people such as Louis Giglio, Martin Luther King Jr. Most of our founding fathers in America, Billy Graham, Plato, and Erasmus.
These people are some of the greatest Wisdomers I can think of, off the top of my head. Please, tell me who you would see as a Wisdomer.
