Have you ever felt as though you reached self-actualization? Was it for a short period of time? Or do you feel as though you are still there?

If not, what do you think you need to overcome to reach it?

Cases like terry Shiavo and assisted suicide.

I specifically want to know how euthanasia can be justified as either moral or immoral. I DO NOT want to know if it is right or wrong :)

Understanding the city's deeds prior to philosophy (or a particular philosopher's influence) = Machiavelli. Modern rationalism made beautiful? Ancient rationalism irretrievable?

Everyone talks about finding that perfect match, yet no match is truly perfect. It would be perfect if you never argued with them and always saw eye to eye, but I've yet to meet anyone who has been able to do something like that.

I mean, whats something you have to do in life, weather you have the money or not. You may even think of something you always wanted to do, and you had the money.

I've read the Da Vinci Code, and I just want to know how many people actually believe what they implied about the bible, and Jesus, and why they believe what they believe. I'm kinda in the middle, being that I was brought up as a christian, but a lot of the points they made in the book, made a lot of sense. So I just kinda want to here what other people think.

The university professor challenged his students with this question. Did God create everything that exists? A student bravely replied yes, he did!"
"God created everything?" The professor asked.” Yes sir", the student replied. The professor answered, "If God created everything, then God created evil since evil exists, and according to the principal that our works define who we are then God is evil”. The student became quiet before such an answer. The professor was quite pleased with himself and boasted to the students that he had proven once more that the Christian faith was a myth. Another student raised his hand and said, "Can I ask you a question, professor?” Of course", replied the professor. The student stood up and asked,” Professor, does cold exist?” What kind of question is this? Of course it exists. Have you never been cold?" The students snickered at the young man's question. The young man replied, "In fact sir, cold does not exist. According to the laws of physics, what we consider cold is in reality the absence of heat. Every body or object is susceptible to study when it has or transmits energy, and heat is what makes a body or matter have or transmit energy. Absolute zero (- 460 degrees F) is the total absence of heat; all matter becomes inert and incapable of reaction in that temperature. Cold does not exist. We have created this word to describe how we feel if we have no heat. The student continued.” Professor, does darkness exist?” The professor responded, "Of course it does”. The student replied, "Once again you are wrong sir, darkness does not exist either. Darkness is in reality the absence of light. Light we can study, but not darkness. In fact we can use Newton's prism to break white light into many colors and study the various wavelengths of each color. You cannot measure darkness. A simple ray of light can break into a world of darkness and illuminate it. How can you know how dark a certain space is? You measure the amount of light present. Isn't this correct? Darkness is a term used by man to describe what happens when there is no light present.” Finally the young man asked the professor. "Sir, does evil exist?"

Now uncertain, the professor responded, "Of course, as I have already said. We see it every day. It is in the daily example of man's inhumanity to man. It is in the multitude of crime and violence everywhere in the world.” These manifestations are nothing else but evil."

To this the student replied, "Evil does not exist sir, or at least it does not exist unto itself. Evil is simply the absence of God. It is just like darkness and cold, a word that man has created to describe the absence of God. God did not create evil. Evil is not like faith, or love that exist just as does light and heat. Evil is the result of what happens when man does not have God's love present in his heart. It’s like the cold that comes when there is no heat or the darkness that comes when there is no light.” The professor sat down.

Who was this young man?
