I'm not in it for the fame. I really love acting and have just finished my GCSE's where I got an 'A' in drama. I am currently at sixth form studying Film studies, Classical Studies, History, Psychology.
Last year I went to a acting school for a few months but had a give it and singing lessons up for that period as I was preparing for GCSE's and never found the time to pick it back up again, but it wasn't getting me anywhere anyway. Was that a big mistake?
Also, I am involved in a proper production that is going on in a theatre. I am looking for an agent (in Cambridgeshire but London is 1hr away on the train).
Has anyone got any sensible suggestion/ previous experience.
Cheers Courtney.

The beginning of the Universe, the big bang, reality and everything. This theory combines both religion and science.

For hundreds of years many people have thought God made the universe. There are different religions that basically all end up saying the same thing about God - that God has always existed. He was not created and he can't be destroyed. He was, is and always will be existing. This is the view of nearly every religion.

Now looking at it from a scientific point of view, the current best accepted theory for the beginning of the Universe is the Big Bang. The definition is:

“
A broadly accepted theory for the origin and evolution of our universe. The theory says that the universe started expanding roughly 14 billion years ago from an extremely dense and incredibly hot initial state.
”
The big bang theory also states that all matter along with space-time was born with this "explosion".

The human mind is a complex thing. Right from when we are kids we are born with the ability to imagine. We can imagine anything right now. The moon? Sure. Space? Sure. Even if you haven't been to either of these places you get a fair idea of what to imagine. But there is one thing that you cannot imagine, no matter how hard you try. That is nothingness.

How can one prove the concept of nothingness exists? Technically you couldn't, but say you were able to pause the whole of the Universe at this moment and go to a distant corner of the Universe and start stripping down the entire contents of that particular portion of space - down to the last atom, down to the last proton. What would you be left with? Nothingness. But you would never be able to form a mental picture of what that nothing would look like.

The big bang theory apparently explains how the Universe started but actually it just explains how the infinitely dense singularity expanded to the Universe that we see around us now. It never explains how that singularity got there. If you ask anybody knowledgeable in this subject what happened before the big bang you would get an answer saying there was no "before" as time was born with the big bang. But this is just the man-made time. There had to be a prior event to the big bang. This singularity had to be born, it couldn't have been always there. There had to be some sort of event that caused this speck to appear out of nowhere. I believe what happened for this speck to appear holds the key to the mysteries of the Universe. So far we've been able to (reasonably) explain majority of the stuff in the Universe, but no one has been able to provide a satisfying answer to what it was actually like "before" big-bang.

Let's assume for a moment that before the big-bang there was nothing. Complete and absolute nothingness. Now if in a few million years everything in our Universe gets destroyed, there would be nothing left. Also absolute nothingness. So nothingness always has, is and will be existing. Just like God. The speck of singularity appeared out of total nothingness. Many religions say God created the Universe. If you clear your mind and try to imagine what nothingness would look like eventually your brain would whimper and give up. Similarly, you cannot imagine God, what he looks like, where God is.

Why then, when there are so many similarities between God and Nothingness, can we not say God is Nothing?

My theory is that that nothingness is God. This is not the God that can do magic tricks etc. But this is nothingness has an intelligent mind that ignited this speck of singularity to expand to what the Universe is now over many many years.

This 'God' that is talked about in religion is a concept invented by man for protection, later turned into an item of commerce and a basis for power. Any child left free from the shackles of doctrines, tradition, beliefs ,and philosophies too ,will see for himself that a seed will grown into a tree and a tree in turn produces seed. There is progression of everything everywhere. What is hidden in the seed manifests into a tree - this is how things are.

Nothingness is the ultimate. If you try to get away from everything that was ever handed down to you in an attempt to 'see clearly', you are left with Nothingness. Bur since we see existence all around, it must follow that existence arose out of that Nothingness, that that Nothingness contained the seed of what is now. The seed of everything and the workings of everything reside in that Nothingness.

I am a Gemini, and it fits me well, but I have always wanted to be a bit more like a fire type such as Aries. I know it sounds kind of stupid considering I can be anyone I want to be, but how do I put more "fire" into my life? What are the general traits of Aries that you see in people? How can I be a more firey person? I mean, I have a lot of passion and fire inside me, but it remains internal. How can I bring it out?

Black boys (BB) go to a party that they were invited to but were denied entry when they got there by a group of whites. The whites beat up the blacks using fists and beer bottles. Only 1 white man charged, and that was a misdemeanor battery charge. The white man served no time, paid no penalty & was given probation. No hate crime was filed although he said the party was for whites only. I personally believe the charges fit the crime. 2 days later one of the white boys racially mocks of one of the BBs who got beat up at the party. White boy then gets punched in face. There’s conflicted testimony re: if white boy lost consciousness. He was hit multiple times. Fight occurs at school so white boy goes to hosp. & is released within 2 hours with no damage except for a swollen eye and a few bruises. BBs are charged with a Felony assault bec. "a tennis shoe was a deadly weapon". BBs have huge bond, go to jail. These charges don't fit.
Tennis shoe vs beer bottle, which is deadlier?

Mt 9:9-13

As Jesus passed by,
he saw a man named Matthew sitting at the customs post.
He said to him, “Follow me.”
And he got up and followed him.
While he was at table in his house,
many tax collectors and sinners came
and sat with Jesus and his disciples.
The Pharisees saw this and said to his disciples,
“Why does your teacher eat with tax collectors and sinners?”
He heard this and said,
“Those who are well do not need a physician, but the sick do.
Go and learn the meaning of the words,
I desire mercy, not sacrifice.
I did not come to call the righteous but sinners.”
