Is fate predetermined or is it based upon your choice?

Is your life predetermined your life already decided like a character in a book or is there free will. If fate does exist then are there really criminals because they can't change their fate so should they be blamed for their actions. Then again if fate doesn't exist and its free will then how do we know, because it might by fate that we are thinking that fate doesn't exist. Is this a paradox or is it possible to determine.

In The Metamorphasis by John Kafka, would it be reasonable that the cockeroach alludes to society?

In the Metamorphasis, would the cockeroach allude to society that is business obsessed (and other character traits in this sort).....i know symbolism is a better choice, but would alllusion work?

Who is a good philosopher to do a research paper on?

I have to write a research paper and we are supposed to have only one or two people in the class write about the same one. If I choose one before he assigns them then I can pick my own, otherwise, I'm going to get the leftover crap that sucks. So does anyone have any good ones?

When do you feel genuinely happy?

As if you're on top of the world? Is it something little, or something big that happens, or nothing at all?

Love, friendship, and respect do not unite people as much as a common hatred of something?

Is this quote by Anton Chekhov positive or negative? Am I reading it wrong, it seems pessimistic.

A question about God? (Interesting)?

For people who believe in God. If God created the

Universe (In 6 days I guess). There are trillion Galaxies in

the universe; there are trillions stars in a galaxy; there are

6 billions people in a star (Earth); there are probably

trillions of civilizations in the space too; do you see how

small a Person is, compare to the universe or God? So my

question is, if God created this huge Universe, why would

he care about a little tiny person on earth? (The or good or

bad things that a person does) (ie. sins).

If you could invest in the "religious stock market", which religion(s) would you put your $ into and why?

Consider that like a business... overall growth, integrity, and satisfied customers (church members) shoots your stock up; while fraud, discontent, and apathy drags it down.

Which churches would you avoid?

Don't say none, that's boring. Imagine you *had* to put $1,000 somewhere.

I worte this on aol/blog and I want to know if you think it's deep, or silly?

I purse my dreams, and keep in touch with the universe in complex ways.....

In my mind, I hear whispers that say, "I love you", and I wonder if this is some far away person who's really meant to be my one and only. I trust these whispers, and wish I could put a face to them, but destiny works its way out. I wonder if I'm a foolish dreamer or a participant in an extraordinary story of love. If true, can I rush the workings of destiny and finally find this love? Karma, or a soul mate from my past life, anxiously reaching out to me, feeling lost?

I'm not sure this is so much a question, but I would love to read comments responding to these two quotes...

Note: I initially hesitated to include the name of the man (Charles Manson) quoted here, but I figured you all would be curious. Bottom line, I'd like for you all to judge the ideas expressed below, NOT the individual.

1) "The world of madness is a lot bigger than the world of sanity...Sanity is a little box that you walk around in. Sanity is a little world. Insanity is the universe."

2) "The mind is endless. You put me in a dark, solitary cell; and to you, that's the end. To me, it's the beginning. That's the universe in there. There's a world in there. I'm free."

What is a Laugh? What Makes Things Funny?

When you see a comedian, or a friend simply tells you a joke, why do you laugh? What makes things funny?

What is the difference?

What is the difference between men and women? Physically there is very little difference since we are all constructed from the same genetic code and even our gender based differences are only the same organs being used for different porposes.

So the only true diffence is one chromosome, there for physical difference cannot be quoted as the defining difference.

So therefore what IS the difference between men and women?

Please explain your answers.

I thank you in advance.
