Porn destroys more lives than it helps. I used to watch it and it destroyed mine. I never saw it coming but i now see it as a destroyer!!! I asked god to help me and he did and since than my life is much better!! I wouldnt trade it for anything!! I wish the hell i never saw it!! Id rather feel the innocence of a crush than to feel jealousy, pervertedness or anger like i did!! I am glad i saw the light from what i thought porn was which was emptiness.. My prayers go out to people who are ensnared. That i hope they see the light through that darkness!! Its simply a trap!!

I admit I have a lot of emotional baggage swimming around in my head. I believe from the outside image (my face, body) people are not able to tell if I am troubled. It is only when I open up and start talking.

Now my first question is how do I mask myself better?

Okay I believe I have a lot of negative traits that I THINK I have. I wrote them down in a notebook and I am really disgusted with myself. But when I look in the mirror I am very pleased with my image. I really like the person staring back at me. So is it possible that if I like the image staring back at me in the mirror, all of the bad traits that I THINK I have really is the traits I posses?

This question is very deep.

What is your reason?? Is it to help your fellow man or is it to get every thing that you can out of life?

What's enough?

Think philosophically: I'm intentionally leaving it open-ended.

This is what other people might think of me:

self-centered
low self-esteem
jerk
******
mean
funny
paranoid
big ego
narrow minded
insecure
bragger
very openly emotional
annoying
selfish
impatient
demanding

This is how I imagine people think of me. If anything this is how I see myself. How can I change these traits about myself?

I would like to ask a question regarding the Matrix. Would you rather live in the Matrix, knowing it wasn't reality, or would you rather live in Zion?

(1) You do what you do — in the circumstances in which you find yourself — because of the way you are. (2 ) So if you’re going to be ultimately responsible for what you do, you’re going to have to be ultimately responsible for the way you are—at least in certain mental respects. (3) But you can’t be ultimately responsible for the way you are (for the reasons just given). (4) So you can’t be ultimately responsible for what you do.

Do you feel like you need more time to figure out what you want from this life but you are getting older by the minute? I am in my early 20s but I feel like I need much more time, the years are flying by too fast and there are no brakes in life...

If we found life on another planet,
would religous fanatics finally give up?

or is small organic matter not enough?

If we found a fully developed alien race that didnt look anything like a human, wouldnt this counterdict god made man in his own image? what would the aliens evolutionary result be assumed as than?

my thought is religon has changed over time but it was always used to control the masses, whats your thoughts?

Do you enjoy the feeling that they lost their faith or what they believe in and gone through some hard times? Does it makes you feel happy to ruin the spiritual joy of others? I'm just asking because, I wonder why and how can people feel happy when they insults other people's believe?
