I have some theories. It is known that Attila the Hun had once studied in Rome as a hostage prince. He later returned to his Hunnic kingdom with a burning rage towards Rome and immediately sought to conquer Rome when he became king. Why did he have this obsessed hate towards Rome? Could it be due to racism he experienced as a child while in Rome (sources describe his Asian features)? Although there were times when he treated Germanic and Slavic tribes cruelly, there were also instances when he treated them fraternally too. He proclaimed himself king of all barbarians regardless of race. He even intermarried with German princesses (Hilda, or Ildico in Roman). But, the Germans later turned against his sons and grandsons claiming they were treated as slaves under the Hunnic confederation. Maybe the Germans also rebelled because they realize that mixing with the Huns were changing their racial features? Southern Germans and Austrians today don't look like the northern Germans.

(or maybe we could convince them that "We" are the ones who get 26 Virgins when we go to heaven after being killed by them...?!?)

(although...to tell ya' the truth...I'd prefer that my "Heavenly Harem Hotties" be a little more experienced...)

If we are not the most intelligent life form in the universe, why hasn’t any other life form developed super advanced travel systems and influenced our lives? Surely if we are so primitive, they would have found us interesting just as we find ants, cockroaches and snails interesting, so interesting that we keep some of these lower intelligent animals as pets or samples for testing and experimenting.

Surely we would be conscious of such activity, just like our pets or lab animals if we were captured, tested upon or kept as pets, if we were in the same position as these other life forms which we have?

One has already created intelligence, while the other is still trying to create intelligence. Who sees the metaphor in this?

Since we have the mind we understand the time ,since we have the body we understand the space and since we have body and mind we are effected by causation.God is beyond all these factors .So we are unable to see the which is beyond time space and causation.want an answer without logic.Want a straight forward answer for a simple mind

It is named 'WHAT CAN A LITTLE LAD DO'

What can a little lad do?
For his country and for u?
He can keep his good name,
He can play a straight game,
That's one good thing he can do.

From the days of his youth,
He can abide by the truth,
That's another good thing he can do.

He can fight the good fight,
And stand for what is right,
That's one brave thing he can do.

He can spend a moment in prayer,
He can learn to love and to care,
And that's the best thing he can do.

HOW IS IT?
Thanks for reading!

Just seems to me that while political freedom was not tolerated, people at least still had some stability in their lives. Was capitialism a huge culture shock?

I recently picked up a used Bundy student model trombone. It is a simple slide trombone, but the tuning slide is stuck. I was wondering if there were any effective/safe ways to unstick the tuning slide without having to take it in to a shop for repair.
