Why do you think people fear public speaking?
Written by admin on April 11, 2010 – 1:01 pm -I get so nervous before a class presentation, or any time I’m the center of attention. I know I’m not alone in this as research has showed many people hate public speaking. Why do you think we fear it so much?

Why do some people fear or hate all snakes regardless of them being non-venomous?
Written by admin on February 24, 2010 – 4:49 pm -Why do some people fear snakes of the non-venomous type even though most pose little or no threat to them? And why do some people go as far as killing all snakes? Especially since they keep the rodent population in check without polluting our Earth? And why do some people think they’re slimy and gross when they have never even touched them? Why all the hate for snakes? Is it because of the Bible, the way snakes are portrayed as evil in the Bible? Phobias? Or is it just no knowledge about snakes or ignorance? I think snakes are cool, I’ve held black rat snakes and boas before, not slimy, a snake’s skin feels like soft leather, somewhat. And the snakes I’ve held were docile and gentle, not wild(they were kept as pets by my high-school applied biology teacher) and therefore not nasty. I wish people were more open-minded about these creatures.

What’s with people saying black people fear dogs and ghost?
Written by admin on February 24, 2010 – 1:34 pm -LOL:).I’m black and I love dogs. What are people talking about? A lot of blacks actually own dogs. Most of my family has dogs and I love it. And as for ghosts, i’ve never seen a ghost, but I’m sure anyone of any race of people would sh*t in their pants if they did.
