Both are ways of thinking and yet the debate is whether or not we can use both at the same time, one without the other, or only one. Let me see your comments but only after you read the folowing
For example, there is a story that helps illustrate this.
There was a blind woman who was born blind. However at the age of 20 she had a special surgery in which she regained her sight. However, she had gone home on a certain path her entire life. She could not find her way by seeing so she blindfolded herself and went home that way because the darkness was all she knew.
The analogy is that her sight was reason, while the darkness was her faith. Both brought to her truth, and yet both showed her different views of the world. Neither was wrong.

Basically do the materials ( steel to cardboard) and the process ( welding to gluing ) change the definition of a work from art to craft. ex. I weld steal and it is considered a steel sculpture of course its art...but if I glue cardboard together is it now a craft?

Why do bad things happen to good people and good things happen to bad people?

Why do the good die young?

I have seen some young adults and teenagers who had promising futures ahead of them die before they really had a chance to live their lives.

Would it blow up or be vailed in darkness or something?

Some Very Bad Advice

Of old there was a saying said
to sooth dark failure’s pain,
If at first you don’t succeed
you should try and try again.

Full many a failure now lies behind,
beneath oblivion’s cloak,
whoever said that stupid saw,
I hope upon it choked.

If at first you stumble and fall,
lie still and fake a cramp.
If all your plans should come to naught,
you can be a perfect tramp.

When failure breaks your heart and mind
shut up and quit that cryin’
What failures could be greater than
old William Jennings Bryan?

When preaching makes you feel unworthy
you can always punch the preacher,
And if your schoolwork is very poor
you can always be a teacher,

When you feel that no one cares
try skipping a month of rent!
If someone makes you feel you’re poor,
cram up his nose a cent.

So if at first you don’t succeed
arsenic won’t solve a thing,
Cause even failures can do well;
Bob Dylan can’t even sing.

Simple as the question. I know they're writers and stuff, but WHY do they do so? (writers includes authors and poets).

I really want to do pointe with my friend. The only problem is that I've never danced except when I was very young. If I start at a beginning class and maybe get some extra help, do you think I can do it?

Disasterous Effect

Standing in crystal clear motion
blue as sky and yellow sun potion
keeps them moving along the walk
simply looking around for girls to talk

Not wanting to push the numbers fast
or else the chance of peace will not last
one in a thousand I move to advance
trying to see if fate shall give me this chance

Satisfaction as the digits burn in satellite
thinking that this day, paths will lead to delight
pride bursting to druglike designs in self
thinking to build it up with even more wealth

Thinking the day won, the initator smiles
not understanding the potential for wiles
waiting some days later for great feasts
while they all only know how to fear beasts

Emit waves to the sky for the payload
not know what waits is for the way-low
machine noises and silence are the reward
for those that get caught, they don't go forward

In reading the classic "The Republic of Plato" this line really caught my eye. I am good with words, but have always been afraid of numbers. Now I am wondering if I missed something. And if a comprehension of geometry would help as I search for the "truth" of my life.

Im already in Drama Club, but im more into television. How do i get started in the buisness? Im 16, i live in Miami Florida (the good part). Where do I get an agent? Any websites? I told my mother about it and she's all for it. I told my friends, and they think im to fat to be an actress, which really made me mad, and kinda pushed me farther to grab what i want.

Heres a picture: http://www.myspace.com/samwantsurbod

Where can you get a really good headshot done? Oh an a resume..? Sorry for all the questions, im just like excited/nervous and really interested.
thanks in advance! (:
