I just read an article about HUMANITY…this article is discuss about whether is humanity we use animals as a subject of biomedicine experiment? The point of view of the author is we have no choice, we have to do it…I agree with the author. Human use animal to do biomedicine experiment so that many diseases can be treating and improve our life. Some people said, this is inhumanity because we cannot manipulate their life as we like. But, if we did not do like this, what other ways that can we do? Using patients or prisoner as a subject of experiment? Surely inhumanity also…one of my friends told me like this: actually, human take animal as their pet is inhumanity also because we manipulate their life as we like. Maybe somebody will say I did not maltreat my pet so I am humanity. But, just image, if I bring you back, take care of you, give you eat, you want? Sure you will score me “nonsense, why I need follow you back home”. I believe human are self-centered, we will do anything to improve our life. In my opinion, we cannot said animals used a subject of biomedicine experiment is inhumanity expect we are vegetarian. Thanks you.

Why is humanity so important in this society and over in this world? Mainly because this is the things that can keep us move on with our live.Imagine if the world withoud kindness and love,then what's waitting in our future is only hatred and grudge. In my leisure time, i had read an article that talk about kindness of a wise man. Wise but arrogant, but what more important is he do not show his kindness publicly instead keep it conceal without reveal it . Like to his close one ,his little brother,it was he has his very own company to run with when he is at age of 25,like i say he is arrogant so he din't really has many friends ,and even have a conflict between he and his little brother and it has last about 10 years, the silent atmosphere still hold between them whenever they meet..but there was a astounding truth that this arrogant man hold to his little brother who is 2 years younger then him . His little brother are still a student, now and are studying graphic design at degree level , in private university. And what he do not know that so far 4 years untill now is his second brother who is the one i've mentioned is the one who sponsor the half of his payment for studying in university.So far till now his little brother thought that his big brother is the one and only that support him in finacial and university payment's fee, and still remain unknown to his little brother after many years. Well unlike many people they do favour for others and show their kindness because they are praise by other,they felt happy to do it...one words describe those people is hypocrite.It's not like being arrogant is a good things but it is about the kindness that show mainly by one nature,will, but not drive by the reward of getting praise by people around or "teaching" that your friends try to instill into your brain by keep lecturing you how you should do that and this. But it is the choice that hold by us ourselves whether we want to show or not showing our kindness to those close to us or our friends because if we can still care to the one that close to us even if they dislike you of hurt your heart in past you or anything ,so i don't see any difficulty if we show our care and considerate to those our friends or aquintances that we just meet and give them a hand when they need. So far this the few things that i have noticed in this article.

im so sorry miss...thanks for reading my comment...
recently i read an article about justice...
it may sound corny but its still humanity is here to experiance a maximum abuse of mental, emotional, physical, atmospherical and weather like issues to get what god meant when we pissed HIM/HER off. we are still important for "god" because like we learn everyday im sure god does too...that with the undestanding that free will is going to go topsy tervy. handing it out and apparently not knowing what is going to happen next , its kind of hard to believe that god HIM/HERself is an omnipotent being of existance. Just because somebody says one thing doesnt mean their going to do what they say they would. god does toy with free will because god itself learnt that giving a self destructive being free will only lead to misery for all beings in the universe of path of creation. without humanity the creator can no longer create. we are god split into billions of minds (and yes that include killers, rapists, teens and saints..everybody) to feed off one another to learn more. like turning a pie into a sand castle...impossible? well put a team of creative people together and they will add what it take to make what is needed with the ingrediants given... god does through the use of humanity...almost like a ceat sheet for something better... all the dead souls live on and around the planet and universe. Judment day will come when it is the appocolipse...in other words armegeddon on earth(destruction of all). Come this time god will justify what was a success and not so much one and there will be the ultimate creation created by the first known creation for the first known creation...
The only thing that contradicts itself is the fact that i myself am a human being...therefore im just another corner in this architechtural structure created by god...

that all...tq

Firstly, I am sorry for late... The article that I read states that humanity is academic displine which studies the human condition, using methods that are primarily analytic, criticaal or speculative, as distinguished from the mainly emprical approaches of the natural and social sciences. In the article reflects on the fundamental question of humanity : What does mean to be human?
The humanities always give clues but it never solve it completely. From the article we know that the study of the humanities can be traced to ancient Greece, as basis of a broad education for citizen. After reading the article, I know that every people consist undeniable sincerity and unpretentious good humor. The article say that many of us who openly acknowledge the shift in human consciousness occuring in New Age find it difficult to reconcile our relationshipwith the life while living within modern society.

I just read an article 'Mother Nature, Father Time'. When i read this article for the first time, i can't pictured the humanity in it. After i read for the second time, i found that Mother Nature (eg: hurricanes, tsunami, and earthquakes) violence us in an endless drama. She(Mother Nature) is heartless, no idea of harm and benifit. We will never know what she provide next. When she show her beauty and madness, nothing can stop her. She leave us with her destruction but at the same time she want us to find the meaning of humanity in each of us.How can we best minimize the harm of her worst of times? It is a job for all of us, not as a inviduals, organisation or government. We must unite. Its our responsiblly to take over it and no matter what Mother Nature might throw at us next, we strong enough to through it.

Hello, miss.
I have read an article about humanity. Humanity is the human nature. In my article, it is about a family with kind parents. They took a good care on their children to make sure they do not get influenced to bad stuff. They have four children. However, when their children grow up, they become very arrogant except for the elder son.
The elder son is loyal to his parents until he is willing to sacrifice his love for them. After his other siblings got married and have their own family, he is still want to be with his parents. As I say his parents are kind, they want him to marry with the lady he love. This articles shows that parents are very caring to their children and the children must be loyal to the parents. Moreover, being kind to everyone is good thing. Thank you.

There are a lot of article about humanity that I had go threw before.. Humanity gives a lot of meaning.. I want to touch about human rights!!Human rights refers to the concept of human beings as having universal rights, or status.. Everyone has their own rights!! Nowadays..there is no more slaves and people who are forced to do something that they are not willing to!! For example, during the Malacca Sultanate, there are slaves that had been tortured to do something! Although nowadays there is no more these stuff.. We, as human must fight for human rights!!!

Hello miss,
I read an article from a website with a title, "Science and Humanity in 21st century". This article was rather interesting. it said that twentieth century saw more significant change than any previous century such as change for better, change for worse; change that brought enormous benefits to human beings, change that threatens the very existence of the human species. Many factors contributed to this change but the most important factor was the progress in science. this was in the opinion of writer of the article. According to the article, technology which is the application of science, has made amazing advances that have affected humans beneficially in nearly every aspect of life: better health, more wealth, less drudgery, greater access to information. But this article was not only talking about the pros of science to humanity but there is also cons. It says that the creativity of science has been employed to the detriment of mankind. The application of science and technology to the development and manufacture of weapons of mass destruction has created a real threat to the continued existence of the human race on this planet. We have seen this happen in the case of nuclear weapons.....

yaa haaa...assalamualaiku and a very good night everyone..now we meet again..are you ready?..now i wnt to story to you about an article that i read before which about the unsatisfaction of MU boss,Sir Alex Ferguson on the referee decision Andre Marriner in the yesterday match between MU and Liverpool..kecoh la MU nie..he said,''It is very difficult atmosphere here. There was a wounded animal aspect to the game and it was something we did not overcome. I think it affected our players and it affected the referee. There were so many controversial things that happened we have to feel aggrieved at some of them. The Vidic booking was the worst decision. It is a foul, fine. But the player has played on, he won the second ball and knocked it for a throw in and got booked. It put Nemanja under pressure.

Also,he was also incensed they were not awarded a spot-kick for a Carragher challenge on Michael Carrick. ''He has gone right over the top of the ball, '' said the United boss. If it is outside of the box it is a free kick and maybe a yellow card. But it was inside the box and the referee was only six yards from it. It was another bad decision.''..huh,macam2..

asl'kum and good night miss and also my classmate.When we talk about humanity it may refer to the human species,the total world population of humans,human nature, psychological characteristics that all normal humans have in common.Today humanity is just like a rubbish.Nobody care about it.I said that because today there are a lot of crimes against humanity.The big power likes AMERICA is the one who not care on the value of humanity.They always blames others when something happen on their country.For example the tragedy or World Trade Center(WTC) being bombed.The America President on that time,GEORGE W.BUSH was accuse the Afghanistan president named as OSAMA BIN LADEN was bombed the WTC.After that Bush was begin a war on Afghan.Many people was died during the war.Here we can see that there is no humanity are care..tanx
