ohh ok.. cool.
“Technology advances but human nature stays the same.”
Wrong. Human nature can also advance. The most obvious example of this would be barbaric vs. civilized. We were first barbarians until we became civilized. This is called an advancement.
Sure, certain aspects of human nature, like the survival instinct, will not change drastically, in the sense that the majority of us, when put in a life or death situation, will try to live. Of course, there are also suicidal people who contradict that.
“Find me more beautiful man-made structures in America today than were found on the Acropolis. It is quite difficult to do.”
Find me a relevant argument. It is quite difficult to do (for you, apparently).
Seems like you want to argue about architecture now, but this article obviously doesn’t address that topic at all.
Thanks for the concrete information you prepared for 3AngelaD.
Do I understand you correctly, that 26 out of 28 students in your C class were Indian, of whom 12 dropped out after cheating? Were either of the 2 non-Indian students American, or have Americans been so completely driven out of IT at your school by the career destruction occasioned by H-1b and other work visas that that’s too much to hope for?
