Philosophy - February 2007

People often rely on first impression in making friend. They follow their perception relying on what the eyes catch. Does it always right?Does perception defines what a person really are?

It is said that 'God' is not bound by time. He knows the past as well as the future. Then he should have known that his 'creation' was flawed. If I know that what I do today is not going to work, I would modify my work so that it will work tommorrow and thereafter.
This 'God' made man, knowing his future. Yet he imposed 'laws' that he (God) knew would be broken. Does this make any sence????

We're struggling against her for life every minute of the day. Weather, disease, eathquakes, volcanoes, tusanami's, floods, droughts, famine, extreme hot and cold, etc.

At the same time we couldn't live with out her. She gives us everything we need for life.

Strange relationship or what?

We seem to believe that humans are inherently moral, with many believing this is a direct gift from a Creator. I'm not so sure, and am interested in comments / opinions.

4. Under A Serpent Sun

Web of corruption thick with deceit
The language of destruction, the slaughter of the meek

Under a serpent sun - we shall all live as one

No rest for the wicked, the children of god
The final retribution, the final curtain torn
Within us - the flames of the end
Survival of the fittest, the hunt for the sacred game

Under a serpent sun - we shall all live as one

Children of chaos - born of holocaust seed
Inherit the addiction, angels of genocide breed
Within us - the flames of the end
Survival of the fittest, the hunt for the sacred game

Under a serpent sun - we shall all live as one

Sweetfleshed, hellbent creature
Artist of the fevered soul
Heavenly, venomous rapture
Stricken numb by fear I fall

Stricken numb by fear I fall
What does this song (by At the Gates) mean to you?

It has been established for some time that we all see the universe differently, otherwise known as relativity.

Either we are fixed to this physical body and are unable leave it or to see things from any other point of view OR our 'physical body' is but a figment of our imagination, our way of dealing with the things around us. If the former is true then the universe is easy to understand, however if the latter is true then things become very much more complicated.

Which causes me to ask 2 questions:
1. Are we our physical bodies or are we something else with our physical bodies being not more than shadows of our true selves?

2. If we are more, what is it that stops me from mixing with or entering another one who is more? And if we are more why is our 'physical body' so hard to change?

SERIOUS ANSWERS ONLY PEASE.

I thank you in advance.

Should we stop wasting our time in trying to find a meaning to life? The bad things that can happen to a person in her lifetime is enormous & varied & we have no control of it. Why analyse life at all? Instead ,on the days when you have met life's challenges just be grateful that it wasn't worse.

Everyone continues to be amazed at how Indians survive & flourish, despite obstacles like corruption, brain-drain, poverty, inflation and religious and lingual diversity. There is something very unique about us 'Indians' and our social tolerance levels. What is that 'INDIAN' factor that keeps us motivated? Could it be something we inherited? Could it be something handed down to us over the ages? Is it something that we 'happened' to retain in us, despite several invasions? Perhaps, the key to India’s 'fast-track' progress lies in the discovery of this hidden 'Indian' factor within us! Your answers could inspire and motivate the Indian youth to nurture, nourish and 'flourish'!

We humans have placed ourselves on a pedestal, we are the greatest things on the planet.

But what is it that makes us so special? We are after all nothing but meat, flesh, bone, fluid. As evidenced by the fact that other animals can eat us, just the same as any other animal on this planet. Do we deserve this pedestal that we placed ourselves on since we are meat just like the animals. If we don't this bring into being serious questions, if we are just animals then to kill another human would be no more wrong then to hunt an animal; if we are just animals then to eat another human would be no great crime; etc.

What is it that makes us so special compared to the animals and why (please don't quote technological advancement as an example)?

What does this mean for us, our society and place on this planet?

Serious answers only please.

I thank you in advance for your insight.

I believe this. Since, one can have so much control on anything-and therefore, if something happens, that can not be controled by the individual etc. it is because it was suppose to happen that way.
