What do you think about giving money to charity? Do you think it is easier to give to charity when the people who are suffering are far away and cannot be seen, or easier to give to people you see on the streets. Do you think it is right to give to charity? If a person in need receives your money, based on this thinks, I can support a child, has a child, the money dries up and the child dies... do you think charity is to blame?

The drive to live, to fight for life is one of the most fundamental drives in nature. It is common to all life forms, and indeed in many interpretations forms that basis of the definition of life itself.

However, humans seem to be unique in the ability to turn off or short circuit this most fundamental of drives. This may take the form of one person giving up their life for another, as in the case of one person stepping in front of a bullet for someone else or someone jumping to their death off a tall building. Both of these involve giving up ones life. Now while we may attach noble qualities to the person who stepped in front of the bullet and (sometimes quite incorrectly) selfish qualities to the person who jumps off the building, the base question still remains.

How is it that we, as just another form of animal, can turn off or plain ignore one of your most basic and fundamental drives?

AND

How does this impact on the way that we as humans operate?

SERIOUS ANSERS ONLY!

Thanks.

Since everybody's asking what's the meaning of life & it ocurred to me that. Are we really meant to find it or the process of looking for it, is already the answer?

of a God's existence? Isn't it common sense that there would be no question of existence if there was no God?

I don't know who I respect more. Lawyers, I think, have the harder road. They're stereotyped as money-sucking leeches. Imagine trying to overcome that prejudice everyday. What's more, lawyers are paid on a case-by-case basis, no? (I'm not an attorney or anything, so I really don't know). No cases, no pay. No pay, no food. At that point, a law degree is about as much use as a BA in basket weaving.

Doctors, on the either hand, are more than recompensed for their work. They save lives! They work hard! And look at the long hours they put in, before, during, and after med school! We respect doctors for that.

But think about it. Doctors are all about knowing the symptoms and how to respond to illnesses. It's like being a car mechanic, except you've got one heck of a complicated car to understand. In other words, memorization. A legal career pits you against human minds, most of which are working for their own intents and purposes, regardless of the morality of their stance.

I swear by my life and my love of it that I will never live for the sake of another man, nor ask another man to live for mine.
