Would you welcome me with luaus and drinks or chains and arms?
Would you judge me for what I wear?
Would you hate me for what others before me had done, even if I have no relation whatsoever to them except for the fact that I am a Muslim, and a peaceful one?
Would you avoid being with me even if I say that I hate violence just as much as you do?
Would you give me a chance to prove that I really mean it when I say that I come in peace?
Would you believe me when I say that I really am sorry, and feel your pain for those you have lost in this senseless war?
Would you…?

"There are only two things that are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I am not sure about the former." Albert Einstien.

Why?

Please (if possible) prove example to back up your statement.

Thanks.

Artists themselvs generally had patrons and so didn't have to worry about money. But people like me who are intense lovers of art but not artists themselves have a problem.

The modern world favors the fast-paced, the cold, hard, and practical . Heartless administrative red tape and material ambitions.

I escape to the realm of art (primarily jazz and classical music, but also poems and short stories of the Romantic and Victorian era) and feel wonderfully alive, but when the music fades, it's back to the aforementioned unlivable reality.

Its kind of true, isn't it? When you drink liquor, the softer the taste, the less fun you have, right? Isn't life the same way? The softer the pain you go through, the less effective the thrill will be????

The bumble bee, supposedly shouldn't be able to fly. The humming bird is the only bird that flies backwards, and the butterfly is always set free...but, that can be lonely if you're always free. Which and why?

Psychology section? I would think the more reputible field would get more reputible answers and questions right?

A number of academic studies suggest that the death penalty results in fewer murders. The death penalty supposedly has a deterrent effect on the rate of murders committed.

Is love vs hate not the same battle as heat vs cold where as one exists and the other does not?

If you choose one or the other why do you choose it?
If you dont choose one or the other (indifference) then what do you choose?

Look them up, and then list the ones you've broken with a brief (non-detailed) description of "how" you broke them...Be honest...You aren't allowed to break any of them while answering this question...
