Every book I've ever finished has always made me happy, not because it's over, but because everything turned out alright. This question came to me as I finished reading "To Kill A Mockingbird" by Harper Lee this morning.

The outrage we feel against evil acts - hijackers steering jets into buildings full of people, kidnappers abusing and killing young children, the list can go on and on - Does this point tp a built in sense that something is desperately wrong. If there is such a thing as evil ... Doesn't it offer a backhand proof of God's existence?

I was looking up other questions on faith but they were all from the religious spiritual side of things. I am more interested in a logic based philisophical perspective for this question.

I have heard the response time and time again about religion and god; when people are aked why do they believe they respond with "because I have faith." Is faith a feasible logical answer to a question or is it too week from a philisophical stand point. Have there been any philosphers that have tackled the issue of faith (both for and against)?

Please help me... I have some art homework, where I have to study an artist and attempt to use their style when painting... I have forgotten their picture, and can't remember the name, so will need to search it on the internet. All I can remember is that they were a British or American (I think british) male artist who painted natural forms (mainly flowers) in watercolour using a slightly simplistic style with quite dark lines under the light paint... The picture I am doing Is kind of like a sunflower... I think his name was quite long... He is a relitavely modern artist (still alive...) I know this is an impossible question, but it would be really helpful if people could make suggestions of either names or websites... Thanks!

Isn't a novel by definition longer than the 161 pages of I am Legend? Is there a longer version of this story?

Everything is black

When you open your eyes
so wide that you could tear its sides
Still you see nothing...
everything is black...
How much fear can you handle?
rub them so hard till they bleed!
Still you see nothing...
Everything is black...
How much would you be terrified?
when all else suddenly seemed to collide?
Can you handle the confusion?
Shun your eyes that tears fall on its own
Wishing none of it was real...
Lift up those lids...pray to see...to see..
pray to heal...
this isn't real...! !
Still you see nothing...
Everything is black...

Euthanasia

when love has become a prison....
when love brings unceasing distress
when love leaves you breathless
you choke on your own ashes
when love is equal to infinite tears
excruciating pains and wretchedness
a demented passion...a poison

and then suddenly it's gone..
the one you depended on
though it's untimely
Love showed mercy
do not fret....
nor exasperate
it is good don't be irate


it is euthanasia

A Wedding

lurked in darkness til all be said
uttered love in words conveyed
One starless night as cold as death
vowed and wed thy soul encased
shrouded angel black and veiled
layeth be each night with thee
blood as wine bed of snakes
a matrimony was made.

I have been thinking why couldn't humans live longer than they do? Like I dunno a thousand years? Sure, we have a limited amount of braincells till we die, but could not our body just evolve to have more braincells? Why do we live the length of time that we live?
