Today the Western world has money and technology but it has no soul and meaning beyond that. What I mean is that the West is decadent, atheistic and there is basic breakdown of morality and ethical values. So how long will the West survive in this terrible predicament? And what will replace it?

The Secret is a video type thing about getting what you want basically. It expresses the the true theory that what you think, affects the whole universe around you but especially you. It supposedly is supposed to go something along the lines of this:

When you think about what you don't want, you will only get more of it, or accomplish nothing.

When you think about all the things you do want, and think about having them, think about the joy of losing that wait, owning that house, accomplishing whatever it is in your life, it will come to you. Through time, you will have it. It could be tomorrow, and it could be next week. It could even be in 10 years. that is what people do not accept about it.

Robert worked at an office with many other people around him. All of his coworkers made fun of him, laughed at him, and talked about him. He let this get to him, and it stressed him out so. All he was thinking about was I wish they wouldn't do that anymore!!!!!!!

what does Hobbes mean in chapter 13, 1st paragraph
"NATURE hath made men so equal in the faculties of body and mind as that, though there be found one man sometimes manifestly stronger in body or of quicker mind than another, yet when all is reckoned together the difference between man and man is not so considerable as that one man can thereupon claim to himself any benefit to which another may not pretend as well as he. For as to the strength of body, the weakest has strength enough to kill the strongest, either by secret machination or by confederacy with others that are in the same danger with himself."

This is what I think, which i am HIGHLY doubtful.
I think what Hobbes is saying is that nature have made men equal though some may be stronger physically while others are stronger mentally.

I know that's only the 1st half, i'm stick on the 2nd half. help? =)

Astronomers have spotted a huge comet recently kicked out of it's Ort cloud orbit, that is predicted with 99% accuracy to collide with Earth on Feb. 19th, 2009. All life on Earth will be destroyed.
RELAX folks, I just made that up. But the question is, what would you do, if it were true, with your remaining 494 days?

Okay, I've been pondering lately what the meaning of life is. The way I see it, it's been aboot survival for the fittest for millions of years. We live, no one knows why we were born, and we come up with our own motives as to why we continue living despite the troubles. We try to improve as much as we can, some more driven than others. We create bonds with people and our lives intertwine to a certain degree, our actions affecting them. We create our own mission(s), our own goal or goals, and work to achieve it (them). We try to survive and accomplish as much as possible. Some are strong and handle the adversity, adapting like homosapien, and some can't handle it, case and point being neanderthal. Someday, if we don't destroy the planet from pollution, there will be a new species on top of the food chain, like us. What do you think, what do you feel the meaning is?
