Public educational facilities such as this are the cornerstone of the institutional racism that continues to oppress all races. Not only will I refuse to succumb this, but I will dedicate myself to the eventual elimination of this abomination to the hih pursiut of learning. But I'm only 12. What's your oppinion?

"Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God is one Lord." (Deuteronomy 6:4)

"...The first of all the commandments is, Hear, O Israel; the Lord our God is one Lord." (Mark 12:29)

"And your God is One God: There is no God but He, ..." (The Qur'an 2:163)

Who write this?
"...we worship one God in Trinity, and Trinity in Unity... for there is one Person of the Father, another of the Son, another of the Holy Ghost is all one... they are not three gods, but one God... the whole three persons are co-eternal and co-equal... he therefore that will be save must thus think of the Trinity..."
(excerpts from the Athanasian Creed)

I got excited with an oportunity with a person - let's say travel a great distance with someone i "love".Everything was going great as i evaluated the situation and i was actually entusiastic.
Seconds later, i feel a pressure in the manipura solar plexus and the feeling of excitement was gone.Somehow this made me doubt.

Afterwards, another happening, i was talking to a person and i made an afirmation, a positive one rational and sentimentaly speaking....but again, i felt pressure in the solar plexus and again i somehow doubt the validity of the affirmation.

What does this pressure mean and what does this chakra trying to comunicate. Fear? doubt? second thought? what i know is not real? lying to myself?

Whatever could not be as part, whole, equivalence, uniqueness, limit, link, influence, sensation, origin, derivative, rule, condition, intent and fulfillment could not be unity.

Is it possible to disprove this statement?

Ok, so this is not an original question. It was first posed by Jack Kerouac in the form of a wise Bodhisvatta.

But I want to know what you all think.

For me, it's the most important question I've ever asked myself.
Thanks, Jack.

I have the following sentence in a geneological document: "For some time in 1777, he was in command of Prichett's Fort with a detachment at Scott's Mills and was frequently in active service against the hostile Indians who frequently raided the Monongahela Valley." Similarly I would like to know more about Scott's Mills such as a map location. Obviously I would like to know more then, that is near the Monongahela Valley.

I ask this question in regards to a game (Final Fantasy 7) that was banned (the selling of new copies) by the U.S. because at one point the characters belonged to a terrorist organization that fought against a corrupt governent. If there were terrorists in say, Nazi Germany, who fought against the governent, would we not think of them as heroes of some sort? I'll also add that the "terrorist group" in the game specifically targeted sites where there would be no innocents hurt.

How can a government support freedom so vehemently, and so quickly take it away? I hope this is understood not simply in the game situation, but in other areas such as gay rights, etc...

I am supposed to do a biography on a native author for my Intro to Native Studies class, and would like to do it on Beatrice Culleton who wrote April Raintree, In the Shadows of Evil, Spirit of the White Bison and Christopher's Folly. I would like to get some information from the primary source, which would be the author. Does anyone know how I would go about getting a hold of her? I tried looking around on the internet but haven't come across anything. I know that she is still alive, but I have no idea how I'm going to get the information I need. Please help, I want to get a good mark!!

For every smile a single tear
For every love a dreaded fear
For every worry a welcomed relief
For every my a new belief
For every right a disappointing wrong
For every penny made another gone
For every denial a tough acceptance
For every song a graceful dance
For every this there is a that
For every head the perfect hat
For every song a beautiful tune
For every night an eerie moon
For every yes another no
For every high an upsetting low
For every gain something’s lost
For every thing a hidden cost
For every black a contrasting white
For every dark a welcomed light
For every rise a sudden fall
For every big a really small
For every loss an impressive win
For every death new life begins
I ask you to live life to the full my friend
Because for every beginning there is an end

What is time?
Daylight savings (moving the clock an hour back) proves that Time as a function of the hands of a clock is just what we have imposed on the natural world. However this can be taken to the greater extent of day/night cycle, seasons and revolutions around the sun in so much as our measurement of it has formed discreat units of time. But that dose not explain what time is.

Is time a force which can be discribed and measured or is a function of something greater than ourselves, or even could it just simply be the way that our brains percive an event (each action following the last in a sequence we call a timeline).

If all time is is just a way for our brains to process an event then could it not be possible to travel through time just by thinking?
Or if time is a function of something larger than ourselves, what?
Or if time is a force created by our universe then could it not be harnessed and used the way we use other forces?

Please explain your answers. Thank you

What is the most important thing in life for you?

2007-01-17 17:17:20 · 14 answers · asked by a 2 in Philosophy

Please do not tell me it is because you were protecting yourself or someone you loved. No a human who consciously decides to end the life of a fellow human being, there is never anything right in that. How do we as a human race ignore War, violence escalating, children not even reaching the age of 4. Isn't life important any more or is money (paper from a dead tree) more important to this planets existance.
