A young stag was drinking at a pool. It looked at its reflection and remarked that he has such glorius antlers but his legs are so thin. Just then, the stag heard some hunters come towards the pool. It fled in terror. Its slender legs carried it swiftly away from danger. Once inside the thick forest, it thought that it was safe. But his antlers, which he valued so much, proved to be its enemy. They got entangled in the branches and no matter how hard he struggled, it could not get free. And very soon the hunters tracked it and trapped it.

I would thank him. I quit on my quest for love, and he sent someone to me- he had a near fatal car accident, but God restored him in perfect health to me. Also he always placed people as my angels to help me along the way

young we always felt inadequate in one way or another, then when we look back at photos etc we realise we looked wonderful.... I guess we just compare everything we had and lost to what we miss now... Im 44 and its only nowadays that i look back and think "i wasnt that bad, why did i give myself such a hard time back then!!!?" love yourself TODAY....What do you recon?

There is only one answer.

Without him there would be no World War I or II, Vietnam War or Korean War.
Without him there would be no Taliban or Al Queda.
Without him there would have been no attacks on Sept. 11th.
Without him there would be no war in Iraq and the Middle East would be peaceful.
Without him the US wouldn't be as powerful as it is.
Europe, and the rest of the world would look much different if he had never existed.
It is not Hitler. It is not Jesus.

Only one right answer. The first one to get it gets ten points.

I saw Wolf Blitzer's interview with Lynne Cheney. He asked her about the reports that she wrote about lesbian sex in her book. She denied it. There are only 9 copies of the book left to sell. Amazon has them for $281... alittle out of my price range. Have any of you read it and know for sure?

there is greed, & it distorts people's idea of justice, making ppl think that we ought to be paid for natural gifts, like brains, brawn, beauty, natural talents, etc, & making us think that hard work [which can be no more than about 1.5 times the average hard work] can justify pay up to a million times average pay per hour, & so on
in fact we use every excuse to excuse higher than average pay per hour, because greed is an almost universal vice
if we had no greed, no desire to be higher paid than others for same sacrifice of time & energy, would justice be like this: everyone, including housewives & students, getting the same hourly pay? - which would be US$15/hr - which would mean the family working world-average hard, would be getting US$75,000 per year, which is what they earn?
would this be justice, & thus cause contentment, peace [very little war & crime], happiness, friendliness [= 'fraternity'], equality, liberty [no superoverpaid being superoverpowerful], avoiding extinction?

"to err is to human"... I've heard that phrase kicked around now & then, usually coming from my own two lips.
i "err" quite allot, i.e., i tend to make allot of mistakes, screw-up etc etc.
so thus, if "to err is to human", what if one makes more errors than the average human,would they thus become "more human than human"?
but what exactly is "more human than human"?
is it then a "overman", or "Übermensch" as Nietzsche stated?
i doubt it, for the "Übermensch" seems to me, to be portrait as without flaw, a person that through self evaluation or "will to power" has risen above his/her own nihilism. where as i am over neck deep in my own nihilism, & knowing my flaws & have a tendency to dwell on some of them, which only bogs me down into a worse "slave" position in Nietzsche's "Master-Slave Morality". ...
maybe I'm on to something, maybe i couldn't be farther from the target. but i enjoyed this question, & still have some thoughts on it. but space is running out waaay to quickly!

Why would the U.S. government spend billions to prepare 9/11 execute it, and spending more money on post-9/11? Why the hell would any one come up with some horrific ideal to exterminate thousands of lives and hurt physically and emotionally to millions. That's like the german Nazis controlling the Holocaust. What is the positive to the goverment on executing the attacks?
