I'm working on a research paper, and I am using Plato and Descartes as INTERNALISTS, but I'm needing information from EXTERNALIST philosophers to use as a ways to show arguements against the internalist views, and I don't know who these philosophers are. Any suggestions?

It was probably 10+ years ago (?) Somewhat of a sci-fi futuristic type. A community of people whom the "government" had them on pills so there were no feelings. Some rebelled and were considered "outcasts" and fugitives? Sound familiar to anyone? Thanks for your help.

In my town

In my town,death is everybody's friend
kills so fast no prior notice will send
each day wondering is it the end?

In my town,people finished their tears
In my town,people lost their dears
they lost hope ...they have no fears

my people replaced tears by pathetic laughter
as the scene become more bloody they laugh louder
filled with wounds but sarcastic outer

in my town,love is lost
faith is lost
humanity is lost

I don't need to be validated or anything like that. I just wish I knew more clairaudients to see what they do with their gift. My guide's name is Gar and the work that we do is in the field of autism, mostly. I prescribe for the kids and they get better. I've never met any other clairaudients and from what I've seen on the Internet, most of them seem so ... well, crazy. Children with autism are like puzzles, each are so different and most of their parents are so confused. They usually need things like DHA in cod liver oil and lots of Vitamin B6 because the measles virus is like the HIV, which depletes the brain of Vitamin B6 and other nutrients so we put them on a Vitamin Therapy and I give their parents a list of the most nutrient-dense foods known to mankind, little things like this. I also write letters to people, celebrities, mostly, to give them ideas on how to make an impact in the world, like, for instance, I wrote to a holy man about where the cure for cerebral palsy was

The following is one of my poems. I asked yesterday how to know if I was good? Well, here you go, give me an opinion.

The Flame
Can you see it burning?
The flame gets so hot in our hearts.
It makes us never want to be apart.
All the magic in the world can not equal the magic in our LOVE.
Some say we go together like a hand in a glove.
Do you feel it burning?
Or is your heart still learning?
Learning to accept the love that you feel.
Trying so hard to go on and heal.
To heal from the heartache from not so long ago.
It's all right my love, we can go slow.
For you, my love will only grow.
The flame is my soul burning for you.
Guiding you to me, all the way through.
Through your hard times and happy ones too.
My flame burns only for you!
Feel my fire as I lift your spirits higher.
See the flame in my want and desire.
Forget your heartache, you need it no more.
You are the one that I adore.

Hey folks, I'm trying to write a comedic play (god knows why) and I've decided that I'd like to read a few more plays as research, etc. I'm intimately familiar with all those famous comedic plays that have been made into movies and what not, but what I'm interested in are those unsung plays that theater folks may be aware of but that regular folks like myself don't know about. By that I mean professional plays that I can buy online, but titles that haven't been performed a billion times and made into TV shows and movies like "The Odd Couple," etc.

Can any theater type folks out there recommend any good, funny plays?

Much obliged!

Have you ever wondered what comes after the end of the universe or what organisms make a cell, and beyond that and beyond that...

I think Science is what sets parameters and then operates within those conditions. When one looks beyond those parameters, that one shall seek "GOD".

There is a book titled "Prepare for the Wolf" which discusses the 3 mind-sets comparing them to the choices the pigs made, straw, wood and brick. Looking at the choices you have made in life, if a wolf came would he be able to huff and puff and blow your house down? I am Robert Roots, the author of the book and I am surveying people to find out which pig they represent and why. Also, if you are not brick, what do you think the reason is and what can you do differently to be the brick pig?

No dictionaries allowed. With the variety of questions asked under this heading I am curious to see what answers I get. And yes, I know the meaning.

Some of my favorite authors are Dean Koonts, Clive Clusser, John Saul, Steven King, Isaac Asimov, Kurt Vonnegut. If you think you understand what my tastes are, please recommend some other authors.

Thank you :)

Control your emotion or it will control you. What if you have no emotion? It might sound terrible at first but to me it seems amazing. If you are not distracted by feelings of hate, love, pain, agony, depression, happiness, etc. then you will be able to achieve almost anything you want.
