I was on the train coming into work today and I looked around at all of the beautiful buildings and other man made wonders and it got me to thinking. What is the point of all this? Every time I get psyched up about buying houses or cars or clothes my mind is kinda like, what difference does it make, you are going to die anyway. Why build a house, why do anything more than the minimum? Why go above and beyond, for what?

Assuming everything in the universe works according to a fixed set of laws, then surely events can only possibly follow one specific path? This is basic cause and effect; events occur as a direct result of preceding events. For something different to have happened, the preceding events would need to have been different, or the laws of physics would have to be broken. This would include anything from a star exploding right down to a particular synapse in your brain firing and you deciding to do something a particular way.

How sweet is the storm that might bring rise to the zest of life that lies burried within, it is not for the weak of heart this thing we call life. It rises with the Tides, it clashes with the Winds, it falls with some calamaty onto the earth. Let he who have understanding revel in it's sweet delight.

we required anyone holding a public office to 1) serve in active duty and 2) send their children to public schools?

I ask this becuase it appears to me that the people who are making the decisions for the public aren't actually required to deal with the consquences of those decisions.

Ex #1: Our governor (in Michigan) is going to drastically cut our educational budget this year - but her kids are in private school - so the cuts won't affect her.

Ex #2: while this has been tough to research, it is not apparent that anyone in the House of Representatives or the Congress has a child currently enlisted in the military. Same with the President and his cabinet members. Don't you think that if the lives of their children were on the line that foreign policy would be more carefully dictated?

"Koran (9:11) - For it is written that a son of Arabia would awaken a fearsome Eagle. The wrath of the Eagle would be felt throughout the lands of Allah and lo, while some of the people trembled in despair still more rejoiced; for the wrath of the Eagle cleansed the lands of Allah; and there was peace."

Just a remainder, the country POLAND, have an eagle as a symbol as well and no THEY will not be the "cleaners". Someone suggested that US is/will be the country that "clean" the Arab world, while having so much parasites it self.
