This is a bit more of a morbid question but I just watched a documentary about whether or not there is such a thing. I am curious about perspectives out there. Has anyone figured it out? What is the PERFECT MURDER?

Many times I look at the negatives and not the positives. I never look at the good things I do. Sometimes I think that these people absolutely HATE me when they Actually LIKE me a lot. Sometimes reality catches me by surprise and I am never prepared for it. A state of shock. I don't know whether to myself for answers or others. I can be my own enemy.

if the world seems to be giving up already?
when the world is fed up of all the rotten stuff here on earth?
when all are blind already of evil,
when no one else even think about of righteousness?
when all is too late....???

I thought about this after reading about Hegelian dialectic:

Sartre contended that subjectivity is of the "for itself" and objectivity is of the "in itself." As in the argument of God's great "I AM," where the "I" is pour-soir and the "AM" is en-soir, by means of synthesis, God is the Absolute being, correcting the contradiction between them. As a combination coming together as an absolute, is it still plausible?

I know what love feels like, because I can imagine it (don't ask why because I KNOW it sounds weird..just a feeling) but I have never loved anything, ever. I would never die for anything. I just realized I don't love God (that's the truth, I try to love God but I can't) and it occurred to me that the strongest things I like are just books. What is wrong with me?

What is your philosophy on attention and human interaction? Is it something that you seek -- negative or positive? Or is it something that you avoid wherever possible?

Why does a person leave the person they love?

Why does a person ignore their hearts desire?

Why would a person deny beliefs within their own heart?

Why do you think?

Feared- your children will listen to you, follow your rules, respect you but not exactly love you

Loved- your children will love you but will not always listen to you

Optimistically, people tend to focus on how historical change brings advancement towards good human social affairs. More realistically, however, throughout history, not only Good, but also Evil evolves. Evil can be considered a historical principle of how injustice transforms itself throughout the ages. While the societal capacity for justice advances, unfortunately so does the societal capacity for injustice. Social evils advance from blatant and overt to subtle and covert. Thus, Evil develops the capacity to deceive people that it is Good.

Comment on how Evil evolves throughout the ages. And/Or
Identify social evils that currently have Humankind under the spell of Evil's deception that it is Good.

I know many of you reading this don't know me, don't know what I'm like, what I've been through, and you may not even see why I am asking this question, and you may not even have an answer to it. You may ridicule me, you may say just let things happen, but I don't believe you just let things happen, you have to take steps towards making those things happen. So here it is, I don't know what I want to do in life, what I like to do, where I should go, what kind of job would I be good at, and how I could make a difference somewhere. I don't know if I should go back to school this year, becasue I can't answer the question of why I'm going to school, other than because I know if I go to school I can get a good job, but what is it, and will it make me feel like i've fulfilled something in my life, will I feel complete. I think perhaps maybe I should travel the world, and get a different perspective of it from other countries around the world. I'm lost, where is my life headed. I'm 20.

-this is an essay prompt and i dont know what the intro is talking about and i therefore i dont know what to write. Can u help me out? what would u say?

I do not feel terrible about my mistakes, though I grieve the pain they have sometimes caused others. Our lives are "experiments with truth," and in an experiment negative results are at least as important as successes. I have no idea how I would have learned the truth about myself and my calling without the mistakes I have made. There is something positive you can do with it.

Topic : Is it necessary to make mistakes, even when doing so has negative consequences for other people?

I don't believe in tax and spend politics and I don't think the federal government should make most or many of our own personal decisions. However I do believe the federal government should step in when people try to abuse and take advantage of the common worker or hurt someone else for their own gain.

I know we still live in a racist culture (I lived in the south long enough to learn that) but I don't think people should be given advantages based on their race. I'm against abortion, but I think a woman has a right to choose what she does with her own body. Are you confused??? GOOD!
