I have a dilemma. I have a small sum of money. Enough to live out a short-term dream of living in Chile for a year. I just have always wanted to do that. Nothing is stopping me, except the thought that I could use that money and time to do something else (say get a Master's degree), and make much more money and time in the future. So the dilemma is this, do I use what I have to live out the only dream I have right now, or do I follow a path that I don't have my heart to have a more secure future?

Of course the decision is up to me, but I would like to hear your thoughts.

Is Evolution a fallacy?
Are there errors in the reasoning or a flaw in the argument between Creation (intelligent design) and Evolution (common descent) from the proposition presented by Evolution?
And are the conclusions made by evolutionists just assumed and are unwarranted extrapolations (goes beyond the evidence)?

What are you thoughts?

Life is complex.It is getting worse each millisecond..How can we peep into its deeper dimension that will help us determine our real mission? How can we be one of those great contributors of all times? How can we make ourselves pillars of future innovations? I know the simplest answer is to answer simply.But I need to hear from people that will help me step into their outlooks in life.I need people that will help me make my life a successful story as we together find for our 'true treasure' through this.

When Hermese Trismegitus said that "all is in the mind," he explained it thus: That since God is the ultimate All and for that nothing could exist outside of God, then it must be that all is created in the mind of God. We are all a dream, a daydream, perhaps.

Now think about the world that lives in your mind, your fantasies and day dreams. Think of all those with whom you have populated your internal universe. Tell me, would you be a good god, loved and adhored by all?

most people think that arabs are the persians.Persia was a great civilization where nobody was slave(unlike the movie 300) and persians had a great religion called ZOROASTRIAN
but arabs like saudi arabia were the people (not persian) who ate grass hopper and they were not a part of persia (saudi arabia) they were killing their daughters and finally after coming islam in saudi arabia the arabs attacked persia and burnt libraries they killed so many persians (now iranians) and forced them to become muslim.

When parents of students at North Ridge Public High School offer their repeated complaints that the school is impersonal and harsh, the lazy head principal decides to offer group therapy to a small group of students he thinks need it most in order to present a more caring image. As usual, he throws all the work in the hands of his kind but overworked vice principal, Mr. Morrison, who already has more problems than he can handle with a terminally ill father, troubled kids, a job he hates, & a pending divorce with his cheating wife. Of course, the random students recommended for the project are unwilling, uncooperative, and don't get along at all. However, when the six completely different, eccentric teens begin meeting with Mr. Morrison Wednesdays in the old storage room, the group, Morrison included, find that no matter how unlike they are, they can each grow personally and share the common bond that they are human beings with problems that together, they can work towards solving.

How come most religions and a lot of conservatives think that if you have more than one partner you're a bad person? Why do they say that you should wait until marriage for sexual relations? Why does everybody have to be born in wedlock? I can't see myself committing to one person for the rest of my life and even if I could I would probably find it very boring. I'm not saying that if I were in a relationship I would want a billion partners but I would want to feel free to explore other points of interests. Why is this considered such a bad thing? Do you know the answer? Or are you an ultra-conservative that will ***** me out 'till I cry brassafrax?

stop making babies, or at least have one baby per couple? so many problems woulld be solved in the end, wont be overpopuated, no homelessness, no need to cut down trees and distroy nature, no starvation, no more global warming and so on. so why not just not have babies for some time? because of religion?? because it says in the bible that we should reproduce? should we do that until there is no space for ous to live? wolfs and fish keep their population down when there is not enough space or food, why cant we?
