:: Scotland. Eeee!

They share an ocean with us, and when we think of them, kilts and rolling green hills come to mind. But do you really know Scotland?? Probably not. Read on to find out some more juicy information.


The beautiful European country of Scotland is nestled above England in the Atlantic Ocean. Most of its residents (65%) profess the Christian faith. 

Scotland's main imports are polyester, cows, electronics, paper and cars.
Their main exports include oil, gas, whiskey and electronics. 

A popular Scottish dish is haggis, neeps and tatties.

As far as ethnicity goes, 97.99% of the population is white. The main language is English, with that wonderful Scottish accent, of course.

Beautiful!!!

I know you were dying to know those fun bits of information. YOU'RE WELCOME, reader.

:: computer morality


            Is there a standard of morality for people using computers? There is a standard of morality because computer users are not supposed to steal files or post copyrighted information as their own, and if they do so, they are supposed to be punished. 

2.       Should there be a standard of morality for people using computers? If “yes”, what should that standard be? If “no”, why shouldn’t there be a standard? There should be a standard. With all the activity in the internet world like music sales, movie watching and information sharing, some rules should be in place because without them, people would have the liberty to steal from each other and go unpunished. 

3.       Page 25 of your text states “Our legal system doesn’t define what is right and what is wrong.” Is that statement true? Explain. I do not think that statement is true, because we have divisive legislated morality on matters like murdering, stealing, abortion, and gay marriage. There are specific laws allowing or not allowing these activities dealing with personal morals.
