From Wiktionary under the GNU Free Documentation License. Society or human society is the manner or condition in which the members of a community live together for their mutual benefit. By extension, society denotes the people of a region or country, sometimes even the world, taken as a whole. Used in the sense of an associaton, a society is a body of individuals outlined by the bounds of functional interdependence, possibly comprising characteristics such as national or cultural identity, social solidarity, language or hierarchical organization. Human societies are characterized by patterns of relationships between individuals sharing a distinctive culture and institutions. Like other communities or groups, a society allows its members to achieve needs or wishes they could not fulfill alone. Society, however, can be ontologically independent of, and utterly irreducible to, the qualities of constituent individuals; it may act to oppress. The urbanization and rationalization inherent in some, particularly Western capitalist, societies, has been associated with feelings of isolation and social "anomie". More broadly, a society is an economic, social or industrial infrastructure, made up of a varied collection of individuals. Members of a society may be from different ethnic groups. A society may be a particular ethnic group, such as the Saxons; a nation state, such as Bhutan; a broader cultural group, such as a Western society. The word society may also refer to an organized voluntary association of people for religious, benevolent, cultural, scientific, political, patriotic, or other purposes. A "society" may even, though more by means of metaphor, refer to a social organism such as an ant colony. From Wikipedia under the

Q. In other words, can you 'sum up' everyone's morality to assign some sort of grade of 'morality' to the society as a whole? Asked by zingis - Sun Sep 23 12:07:51 2007 - - 12 Answers - 0 Comments A. Aggregate morality is called a culture. While the cultural morality is a result of the contribution of each individual, it does little to predict an individuals moral position. How the individual is accepted within their culture, however, does depend on the aggregate morality. I liken it to a crowd gathered to watch a large sporting event. The general inclination of the culture is to root for the home team, but nothing says a given individual conforms to that thought. But individuals who fail to conform to the group culture are aware of it, and will conduct themselves differently than they would if they were within a sympathetic culture. Their reactions differ, possibly choosing passifism (quietly eating their nachos, considering the… [cont.] Answered by freebird - Sun Sep 23 14:45:19 2007 What would happen to society if birth control were to disappear tomorrow? Q. What roles would men and women have? Would marriage be more necessary? How would women manage both families and careers, without access to reliable birth control? What would happen to society, to the economy, etc? Rio, vasectomies, tubal ligations and sterilization implants are birth control, they are permanent forms of birth control. Abortion and infanticide is also another form of birth control, one that I imagine will always be an option. Asked by . - Sun Aug 16 18:46:35 2009 - - 20 Answers - 0 Comments A. There would be more babies, and I suppose more self-induced abortions. Women would not be able to manage to have both careers and children, if they were continuously getting pregnant. They would have the option of celibacy or continuous childbearing. Women who were really serious about careers would stay single and celibate (this was considered normal for career women until fairly recently anyway). However, I can't really see how birth control could ever 'disappear'. I mean, if nothing else, the option of premature withdrawl, which while not 100% safe is fairly effective, is always going to be available, even if artifical contraceptive devices were for some reason unavailable. And there are various natural substances that can be used… [cont.] Answered by Louise C - Sun Aug 16 23:40:26 2009 Which building society or bank is it easy and quick to open an account with?
Q. I would like to open an account with a bank or building society (so that I can make some interest on my salary). Which building society would allow me to open an account quickly without a credit check? Asked by Spezza2007 - Sat Dec 1 20:48:17 2007 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments A. Believe it or not, UK Banks do make some effort to reject individuals with poor credit records (or those currently Bankrupt). So all UK Banks WILL check your Credit record before deciding to offer you an account - however you can insist on a 'Basic' account (no Credit Card, no Overdraft) and most banks will provide one (typically it will come with a Debit Card). You may find it easier to go into a high street branch with your Passport, Birth Certificate and something that shows your current address (Driving License, Utility Bill etc), together with you latest wages slip.
