my vote goes to charles darwin....he shook the whole planet out of the wooly-minded slumber that religion had meandered us into...and wised us up to our real situation.

Please don’t be a big slob, Bob
Steve, what’s up your sleeve
Do not forget to pay, Ray
David, don’t hold me enslave’ed
Don’t try to be so tricky, Ricky
Hank, I’m walking the plank
Stop your acting so sly, Guy
Frank, he’s playing a prank
I will hold my remarks, Clark
Marty, lets go to the party

I pray
Coins, golden and silver
Rain down from Heaven
Wealthing me

Currency
Green tapestry
Woven mint for me
Covers everything

Vault so high
Reach to the sky
Enriched keep change
Funds mentality

Top of the heap
Bottom most line
Untouchability
Capital City trickle up

It made news that people were waiting on line for days just to be the first to purchase the new iphone which cost $600. Why why why do people covet such material things that they are driven to do that? Do you think thet would use their "valuable" time and money for people or children in need or are they just so caught up in their own little materialistic world? Why is this so important to people? Answer what you wish.... thanks for listening and.. have a nice day. ; )

Do you think the reason the divorce rate is more than half is because most people don't wait for their soulmate but settle for something less?

It has only confirmed my opinion that there was no way Lee Harvey Oswald killed Kennedy , or if he did he was not alone and there has been a huge cover up. If you have not seen this film it names the people they think was involved. So my question is why are these people ( at least the ones who are still alive ) investigated ?
Magic bullet theory my **** , it's about time everyone not just americans learned the truth.

As my voice
Travels down the hall
And my ears yearn
For your Returning call

As my eyes search
The empty space
Where once I kissed
A familiar face

I look down
At the empty chair
And remember the girl
With golden hair

Those sweet red lips
So full and sweet
A laugh like honey
Melted over a treat

Then the memory fades
And my tear hits the dust
Now the chair is empty
Because I didn’t trust

i had this idea since my secondary school days, because being a slight sufferer of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, i have a thing for numbers and patterns.

when i was reading on maths and logic, i came across some other scholars or matheticians beliefs that coincided with mine, in that patterns in a cycle does not necessarily have to be regular.

for example, take a look at this trend.

1, 3, 6, 10, 20, 25, 30, 33, 36, 39, 40, 43, 46, 50.

a weak yet certain pattern is observed in this set of numbers, if you follow the trend you should come up with the next number as 100 or 60. because of the irregularities of the number formed, the next event is "highly predictable", yet not with a high "significance level". also, there isnt an explanation on how the number 40 came up instead of 42, making it harder to comprehend the cycle itself. but essentially, it's a big cycle.

just my thoughts on this issue. any similar or opposing views? would love some serious insights on this issue

When the symbols of patriotism is introduced into religious worship, is not that congregation indulging in idolatry? Viewing patriotism from a religious perspective and religion from a patriotic prespective.

I am a thoughtful person. I think before I speak or write anything.

Sometimes, people think I am stupid or dumb because I answer a question slowly. The truth is..I ponder over the question..I want to see the big picture.

Yesterday, my sister asked me, "Did you forget anything in Dan's car?" ...I think about what she said to make sure..if I don't forget anything..It took me a few seconds to answer her...She complained that I think too much, and the question should be answered immediately, no need to think too much.

Do you think being thoughtful..like I did..is stupid? When should I stop being thoughtul?

On this 4th of July week-end holiday do you really feel free about anything and do you know how to feel more in control of your own life.It seems like every aspect of life controls us.
What do you do to be free or at least feel like you are in control of something?

CSI
Five by five
On Miami beach
The conclusions they reach
Will put you inside
For a very long time

In charge is Horatio
He runs the whole show
Next up it's Calleigh
Her figures always tally
You can't miss Eric
His style is smart and slick
Don't underestimate Alex
Broken pieces she can fix
And there's no foolin' Ryan
Your story he ain't buying
