They have the same definition as others. No, it's not always a good source, but you should give credit where credit is due instead of dismissing it altogether. Your post has no value.......

That is your opinion. I have watched over the years people quote wikipedia as their proof, but after digging deeper, realize that they held partial truths. Go ahead and join wikipedia and change whatever you wish. The site allows members to post what they see as truth without providing proof. All they do is place a question of citation above what is questionable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But you don't feel exceptional or think we're special? I DO think that. Pride in this country has resulted in some great things. And I think that those in other countries should feel special as well. We (as countries) are all blessed in some way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
