Why do people forget they are asking questions seen and answered by the whole world and not just the USA?

Of which you speak I agree. Aware I am. To answer to the masses Try I will!!!\n\n**bows to Yoda**

no, because we live in a land where we have something called freedom of speech where people can speak thier minds but with all this politcal correctness bulls*** people forget that.

I guess we ask questions to ensure that our point of view is validated.\n\nMaybe we don't really care what other people think?  Maybe we already know that our belief is the perfect belief for ourselves and we are only here (on this yahoo site), to prove our point.\n\nObviously....I don't think that...but I don't think that other people think that either.    Some people just insist on forgetting that God made everyone equally.

actually it jus depends on one's viewpoint.. nothing else or u can say one's ideas.. n like tht.. but for some ppl, they dont realise that , in fact, they r asking a stupid Question abd some ppl do it deliberately.. so u cant avoid it except the ones who have the authority to do so- i.e. - the yahoo officers who have the comeplete authority of this feature of yahoo. \nso, it is all like this- i submit.\n:-)\nwhen u get stupid questions, n if u r smart enough , which i suppose u r, just dont waste ur precious tym on those Questions...just ignore.. this is an international thing that will go on.. until there r some specific filters sort of things.. so u can't stop it completely.. and u knw that. everyone does! so, do what uu really wnt to - in dis case- answer only those Questions that u wana answer to otherwise why mess up with them?? \nget my point? \nall da best. relax.. hav BBq and coke.. njoy!

It's weird if you are an american and still ask the question like that. I am not surprised that no any answers here. Because you can not handle thinking about others.

yeah, America is often viewed as the country filled with people who are uneducated and have no clue what is going on around them. \nI heard a comment from a comedian, he said,\n"As a whole the U.S. is a country filled with idiots, but as a whole they are genius; Russians on the other hand are all Einsteins, but as a whole you can't find a dumber group of people." \nIt's sad, but somehow true, for example, try asking an Average American what the capital of Italy is, or even France. Americans don't care about what is going n in Dafur, in fact 95% probably didn't even hear about the country. Or ask an American to place Iraq on the map... and we are at war with this country!\nThere is nothing that anyone can do about that. But the fact that we are the most individualistic country in the world has something to do with that. People just don't care, they would rather watch American Idol, then worry about what is going on in Congress. Arrogance... \n\nOne day the political arrogance and ignorance of the general population will get us into trouble...

Some people are just that way. Others get tired of seeing some of the stupidest questions that could be asked. (I have heard that the the only stupid question is the one that is not asked. Not true, I have seen some really stupid questions here) Some people get tired of seeing the same question over and over. A good example is guys "What is the normal size of a penis?" or "How do I make my penis bigger?". \n\nThat is the best answer I can give you. You do realize that you have opened yourself up to some really rude answers by asking this, don't you?

It's probably because they are simular to you, are curious about the same questions, or think they have the answers since they are all in the same thought pattern.. I don't think any ONE person is anwering everything,... that would be impossible.

Human's are ego driven. They ask questions (sometimes), not to get the truthful answer, but to get attention. They want responces that tailor themselves to an image that they already have of themself. Answering otherwise conflicts with their personal beliefs.\n\nAnd don't get me wrong. But this world is FILLED with people who have problems when others conflict with their personal beliefs.\n\nSome people just live blind... who need to OPEN THEIR EYES.

you mean the USA? Don't know why some people stare. It is rude. People should mind their own business. If they're going to stare they should go up to the person and say something about it.

And while I agree with you I think its an unfair assumption for several reasons..\nThere are several countries that are ignorant as well...its often easy for those who live in europe and asia...countries who've had a vastly longer documented history...this country is a few hundred years old...how much do those countried know about america...\nAlso...most of the world history that people know of is about the the ones surrounding them...how truly knowledgeable are these about other civilizations history that does not relate their own country or surrounding region...\nIn general...you will find people every where that are more concerned with themselves...or what is immediate...\nI think people are very ignorant about anything that goes beyond themselves...but not all americans are like that.  I'm not anti anything or pro anything...\n\nI ask you...Do you consider yourself smart...\n\n***I dont mean to sound callous...b/c I agree...its just that...Its really very trying when the world criticizes americans for being igonrant for the lack of knowldege for things that relate to them...The stereotypes of Americans is lame thing...b/c its based on assumptions...

People like to be surrounded by the familiar.  When they encounter someone who doesn't act/look/believe what they are used to, they often fear it.  Most people get over this, realizing that different points of view is what make the world great, but some others just don't want to accept that there's a larger world beyond their own.

Somepeople are not convinced anything exists until they see it.  With many of the things about being rare or intangible, you may never get those people on your side.  Others dont believe because of culture or upbrining.

I wouldn't pay too much attention to those answers. Some people seem to have that "You can't understand" mentality. I think it is because they are SO set in their views, they don't think anyone else has a ability or the intelligence to converse about them. Sometimes it is like the first amendment went away with the rest of what this country was founded on. Dialog is a great thing and I hope you don't loose the inspiration to participate in it.

Usually reflects on them but sometimes the questions really are dumb and then it reflects on both parties. It's still tiresome and annoying to hear rude and mean answers regardless of how dumb the question is. It also seems like a lot of people forget that their are people on YA that are immersed in different cultures and have an entirely different value system. When people don't realize this or just don't care and put the questioners down that really, really, ticks me off. I wish people showed off their good/tolerant/intelligent nature more often. I know they must have one!
