well, getting some sun is good for health, batman

There is no reason to sleep at night.

melatonin.

thats only to make you want to sleep at night. Biological reasons. But what this other guy fails to realize is how long evolution takes. Just because we live and die quick doesn't mean any changes to genes will take place!

Normalcy is subjective. In the eye of the beholder. Although you are right in saying that the group think could effect the way that eye perceives it. Could? Most likely. We evolved to be parts of groups. Survival depended on it.

it has so many more purposes than just that.

that is stupid on so many levels

Normality is a perceived state of mind based on the median and collective thoughts of a group of people.

You only need to look at religion to see that the definiton of normality means nothing.

In one sense good christians are the pillar of the community, in the other sense, their entire lives, values, is based on a delusional entity. Am I supposed to be governed by people who might as well be praying to a leaking wellington boot?

But because religion has such a collective following, the median viewpoint on it has made it acceptable. Sorry, they've made it so that if you even dare to mention or question it you will cause offense. A bit like when non white people play the racist card or when women use their sexuality to get them things when they want it and then bitch about equality when it suits them.

The only thing you can do about it is bitch about it on the internet.

It will never change because there is no simple way to tell a world that is governed by religion that it has fundamentally fucked away peoples lives for so long.

Religion is the ultimate example to demonstrate the principle of normality. If enough people believe then its seen as true.

all you non-believers are going to eat your words in 2012!!!
