How do I deal with a drama teacher who always picks the same people for a play every time? She totally denies it, but she really does pick favorites. She's gotten many parent phone calls and emails, and she knows that everyone isn't happy with her.

The Absolute is the totality of things. Why do we associate that with something finished, static? like absolute morals in religions? Even if one could know the absolute, why should that imply that one is finished or that one knows all, could the absloute not also mean that you realize that itself is in change?
So that there can never be any perfect understanding, never any end to reach.

Would that destroy the absolute?
or at least the absolute mentality that many religions especially embody.

I mean religions speak of the absolute, as something independent of the universe or "outside" of it. How can one have such an understanding and be sure that it is not an idea?

Sorry english is not my mother tounge?

Absolutes do not exist...I think? Growth and change require an absolute one man said.....?
something compared to or in relation to something, in his mind that meant something absolute. yet to me it seems that that is not the case. Since growth dos not have to be into something know, something already decided. I mean it can be spontaneous growth into unknown.
And change can be understood in relation to the world around you, itself in constant change. Plus the you that once was compared to the you today, is compared with your memory, also subject to change and distortion. The reality of it being only a thought. So I dont see his arguement of stating that is proof.
I am not a philosophy expert so please correct me if I am wrong.

Is the real reason Christian's make a big fuss about abortion is beacuse it exposes a fundamental flaw in God himself that no one want to deal with? That being that God is required by his law of election to send babies to hell?

(I look forward to a lively debate wiht minimal name calling.)

and God has built you your perfect dream home to live the rest of eternity in. What would this place be like for you. What is the perfect place to spend forever for you? How would you spend it?

As for myself, I would probably like to wander around and explore. Carry a large backpack with everything I need. Maybe I would have a small house in a forest where I could rest every now and then.

I have just completed Photo 10 (intro to photography). The next step up is intermediate photography (taught by the same instructor I had for Photo 10) but I am definately taking Studio Lighting, and I can only pick one other photo class:
intermediate Photography
or
Digital Photography.

I love taking film photography, but also want the option to shoot digitally.

I can't make up my mind. But I do think the Studio Lighting course is film or digital optional, so I might still have the option to use digital printing equipment at school. I'm not sure.

Any advice on what to do?

You can see some of my work here:

To decide if I need to be in intermediate photography to practice, or if I can make it in Digital Photography.

If you click on "all" at the bottom, you can see how my photography has changed since I took my photo class. The oldest work is on the bottom, all digital, the new stuff is on top.

The Poet: Forecast

Winds have not begun, yet.
Silent...too silent. A hush.
Water in the sky, rivering
Thru beds of December...

The hunting cats approach,
Each ghosting thru the woods,
Padding...silent...too silent.
Wolf stands bristled. Knows.

She looks at me. Bristled...
Knowing the forecast
Of pen to paper...
Storm...carnage.
