I don't know why women write such snoozers. Is it because they find beauty in the mundane? I don't think I have ever gotten through an entire book authored by a woman.

How's this poem(persian poet,Hafiz) ?

I said I long for thee
You said your sorrows will end.
Be my moon, rise up for me
Only if it will ascend.
I said, from lovers learn
How with compassion burn
Beauties, you said in return
Such common tricks transcend.
Your visions, I will oppose
My mind's paths, I will close
You said, this night-farer knows
Another way will descend.
With the fragrance of your hair
I'm lost in my world's affair
You said, if you care, you dare
On its guidance can depend.
I said hail to that fresh air
That the morning breeze may share
Cool is that breeze, you declare
With beloved's air may blend.
I said, your sweet and red wine
Granted no wishes of mine
You said, in service define
Your life, and your time spend.
I said, when will your kind heart
Thoughts of friendship start?
Said, speak not of this art
Until it's time for that trend.
I said, happiness and joy
Passing time will destroy.
Said,Hafez, silence employ
Sorrows too will end my friend

How does belief in tachyons differ in kind from belief in God?

Given that the limiting velocity in our universe is the speed of light and tachyons move at greater than light speed and can never slow down to light speed, therefore being doomed to exist (if at all) forever beyond our event horizon how can their existence ever be proved? And if proof of their existence is not possible then is belief in their existence similar in kind to a belief in God, i.e., requiring faith?

Are we really educated or are we merely vessels that hold information?

Competition, remberance, and fear.
We are told how to think what to think and how to act.
Our education does not cover self understanding.
You end up knowing a great deal about things and how they are seen to work and assume the rest, through what we term opinion.
What then is intelligence?

Adoptee question?

In some states the records are sealed -- NC being one of them. Is there any other way to actually look for information regarding birth mothers? The only information known is city of birth and first name of the child and date of birth. I already know about private investigators and stuff like that, but is there a way that one can find out without having to pay a lot of money.
