Does it not seem logical that atheist thinking, such in Russia would have been capitalist and Christian thinking would have been more communist in nature?

Why, Mr. Anderson? Why do you do it? Why get up? Why keep fighting? Do you believe you're fighting for something? For more that your survival? Can you tell me what it is? Do you even know? Is it freedom? Or truth? Perhaps peace? Yes? No? Could it be for love? Illusions, Mr. Anderson. Vagaries of perception. The temporary constructs of a feeble human intellect trying desperately to justify an existence that is without meaning or purpose. And all of them as artificial as the Matrix itself, although only a human mind could invent something as insipid as love. You must be able to see it, Mr. Anderson. You must know it by now. You can't win. It's pointless to keep fighting. Why, Mr. Anderson? Why? Why do you persist?

If The Matrix asked you this, what would you say?

According to the Septuagint Cain said to Abel,"Let us go into the field." The Chaldee paraphrase adds that Cain maintained that there was no Judgement to come, no future state, and that when Abel spoke in defence of the truth Cain took that occasion to fall upon him." However that which scripture tells us was the reason why he slew him was a sufficient aggravation of the murder; It was because his own works were evil and his brothers righteous. Nay, In kiling his brother, he directly struck at God himself; he hated Abel because God loved him.

I was wondering what you might think of this, and I've tried to take out the "Common answers" to this question. (Hey, it's 10 points for your opinion...LoL)

I mean, if God created all the things and God is a thing, then God has created Himself too!

Ain't I right?

I've just thought of that after reading some answers to questions of mine...

What do you think of that?

IM 18, and i was offerd a job at a grave yard or memorial park. I immediately jumped on this oppurtunity because, grave yards make me feel calm and happy. Happy that, the fact im not dead and burried 6 feet deep. In other words it makes me happy to be alive and makes me think about, the people that are 6 feet deep and never took a chance, or was a affraid of taking risks in life and now they are dead. It motivates me to take every oppurtunity that comes to me, because i will soon join these people down under, and nothing will matter anymore you will be gone forever!!!!!!!!! but, im not taking this job just to humble myself, but because it pays 13 bucks an hour. Am i weirdo for thinking like this?

or be the champion of an individual sport?

And which sport would you chose?



I realize I could have put this in sports BUT since the questions I ask are supposed to be philosophical/psychological questions, questions that make you think, think about yourself, your attitudes, your morals, your ethics, I decided to go ahead and put it in philosophy.
