With all of the exploring that human beings are doing, I would wonder what would happen if we found such a scenario. There are surely many planets that are "suitable." It's just a matter of finding one that offers the "exchange" that humans can tolerate.

what is a tone for this poem?

Tell all the Truth but tell it slant---
Success in Cirrcuit lies
Too bright for our infirm Delight
The Truth's superb surprise
As Lightening to the Children eased
With explanation kind
The Truth must dazzle gradually
Or every man be blind---

By the way Tone means An expression of a writer’s attitude toward a subject. Unlike mood, which is intended to shape the reader’s emotional response, tone reflects the feelings of the writer. Tone can be serious, humorous, sarcastic, playful, ironic, bitter, or objective.

Ok so I want to start playing guitar. Excuse me if I sound stupid or ask any stupid questions but I am 100% new. I dont even have guitar yet. I just decided I love rock and music and I want to stat playing guitar. So I dont get what type of guitars are there. I dont want to start playing like country or heavy metal music. I want to start playing guitar and playing and learning good rock songs like the red hot chili peppers or guns and roses like that kind of guitar playing. What kind of guitar would I need? Also how long would it take till i start learning it and getting into it and learning how to play any notes? Should i get a guitar teacher to start me off then i go my own ways or should i always have a guitar teacher and get lessons every week or so. I want to make it a hobby not my life by the way.

why does the world have misery and conflict?

My thoughtis that people have greed or maybe we don't understand each other as much as we think.

The secret to be succesful in life?
What do you think of sucess?
Do you want it?
Happiness maybe is the answer?

Or maybe happiness isn't because there is alot of conflict in this world because we don't understand as we think.

Death

Death is a factor,
we all will face,
so why be afraid,
wheen we know,
we r going to a better place,
or is it hell that we will face,
still either way we will face,
it,
it must be faced,
no one can prove,
right or wrong,
they were gone b4 i asked,
will i meet them above,
under,
beneath,
what will happen,
what will i face,
Death is what i will face,
everyone i know is just another face,
how can it be,
Death is faced.
Death

Why do we, mere humans, have a consiciousness? Why was life created in the first place? What is the meaning of life? Do each of us have a goal, a purpose, in life that we're each supposed to achieve? What goal, then, is humanity supposed to achieve as a whole? Or, are we just ignorant little humans who look for a higher meaning when there is none? What do you think about this?

"Consumerism is the equating of personal happiness with the purchasing of material possessions and consumption."

I'm against buying STUFF because I don't feel I need to buy STUFF to be happy. On the other hand, I like music, and buy CD's regularly. I'm not happy just because I bought a case of plastic - I'm in it for the music. Does this contradict my hypothetical stance as an anti-consumerist?

A magic web of colors gay

A curse is on her if she stay

According to the geneology of Jesus in the gospels of Matthew and Luke, Amminabad's father was named Ram(in Matthew's) and Admin(in Luke's) while his grandfather is Arni. But the father of Arni and Ram was both Hezron. They say that Matthew's wrote the line of ruling while Luke's considered the biological line. And how come Joseph, husband of Mary, has to different father; Heli (Luke's) and Jacob (Matthew's)?

I wanna be an actor. but i dont really enjoy theater that well
i mean i think i would love tv acting with more serious roles but right now im in draama at school and im not really enjoying it, i mean i am not too happy with some of the lines and im not really happy about how the script was written. I think I would be more happy playing a role that was more serious and something I can relate too. So my question is... do I have a future in acting? I mean dont all actors love broadway and will do any gig they can? I dont enjoy scripts I cant relate too or parts that are too unrealistic ( like an evil villian ). so am I just blowing this off and making excuses just to call myself an actor? Do I have a future? Am I a real actor?

We're reading Frankenstein now in English class (don't spoil it for me!), and I can't help but think of the monster as Frankenstein, instead of the scientist! Why do we call the monster Frankenstein, when he really does have no name at all?
