Philosophy - June 2006

With the climatic changes, weather you believe in Global Warming or not, the Polar bears have been suffering because of the ice melt. Some bears are not surviveing the once 5 mile swim that is now 80 miles, (nor are some young seal pups who cannot keep up with their parents durring this migrant swim) The Polar Bears are starving and have resorted to canabilism to eat. Some drown, some starve ... it's not good.

I cannot help but think of future generations who will only know the Polar Bears as mythical extinct creatures that once were. Perhaps our grandchildren will be telling stories of the cool white bears that once were ... but probably still on a Coka Cola bottle.

Then I have to start thinking about, "What goes around, comes around." If the climate can potentially kill bears ... what about effects on humanity? I can accept "natural" changes if that all this is but, to me ... it's pretty sad.

It was a question asked of genuine curiousity, not intent to be sacrilegious or blasphemous. And I still want to know what people think.

Then why should we have death sentences? That's inhumane.

What is sin? How can I know that it exists? If sin exists, what are the consequences of sinning? How can I overcome sin if it exists?

Assuming that brain transplantation is possible (I know, I know, probably not!).

If you believe in souls,

Is the soul in the brain?
Does this mean that the soul is a brain function?
If the soul is in the body/not an physical entity, would this new
person have their soul with my memories/experiences?
What would this imply?

Even if you don't believe in souls

How much does the body affect the brain?
Is there any 'body consciousness' that may affect the new
brain?

Um, many people talk about 666, and all the people like Julius something Ceaser, Ronald Wilson Reagan (joke from somehwere, and not sure if spelt right), and other stuff. But i've also been told, by people i consider "smart" people who watch the news and stuff, that "scientist" or whoever are the people that study the bible, found that the number is 616. Has anyone else heard that, and if so, can you give me a source.

I have read numerous news stories across the country of police officers tasing citizens for minor reasons. If a suspect has a gun, then obviously a police officer is going to use his gun also. So why use tasers to electrocute citizens for minor reasons? According to Amnesty International, more than 144 citizens have died already after being tasered by police.

This is a question to those who are religious, non-religious, or to those who just don't care. If you think about all the religions, they're pretty much the same, each telling you how to live your life and consequences/benefits of doing certain things. Each also has some sort of high spirtual leader/lord/etc that one praises. Well, the question is, what if there is one true religion. I mean, if you tell someone something, they tend to mess it up a little, so what if that happened with religion. What if long, long, LONG! ago, there was a true god, or a group of gods, and everyone did have to do certain things to get to them. And over the years, everyone has just been adding and taking away what they think people should do, because of power, or whatever. Or, a religion could've just evolved depending on culture, and modern (in those days) societies. Well, this isn't really a question, I guess I wanted comments/answers.
