If life embodies all sorts of opposites that are considered neutral (hot/cold, light/dark, masculine/feminine), then why are things supposed to be only good but not bad, and only loving but not hateful? Didn't the creative force make all of these things? I'm not saying I agree, it's just something that I wonder about and would like some input. I'd like more philosophical than religious answers.

Darth Vader was necessary to bring balance to the universe, right?

If you constantly contemplate on God, you can forget your sorrows and difficulties and experience divine bliss. Since ancient times, devotees have experienced bliss by constant contemplation on God and shared their experiences with the world.

This should be True, right ?

Answers in the vein of "because I get 2 points for it" will get you two friggin' points and a bad karma, but no cigars. This question will not be allowed to go to vote, unless I die within the next 7 days.

Imagine, if we are not answerable to any authority or for that matter God, Himself. What will the world be like? Will you do that which is right or wrong? Please use imagination and answer.

if someone can give me an analysis it would really help:

Come, my CELIA, let us prove,
While we may, the sports of love ;
Time will not be ours for ever :
He at length our good will sever.
Spend not then his gifts in vain. 5
Suns that set, may rise again:
But if once we lose this light,
'Tis with us perpetual night.
Why should we defer our joys ?
Fame and rumor are but toys. 10
Cannot we delude the eyes
Of a few poor household spies ;
Or his easier ears buguile,
So removed by our wile ?
'Tis no sin love's fruit to steal, 15
But the sweet theft to reveal :
To be taken, to be seen,
These have crimes accounted been.

which is most imp.to be able to "know" something??
Some experts (athletes, dancers, musicians, visual arts, cabinet makers, lab technicians, mechanics, surgeons, .etc.) may have acquired knowledge that is difficult to describe in words. Does this mean that other Ways of Knowing (i.e. reason, emotion and perception) play a more important role than language in knowing how to do something?
