"If we are in the middle of 'nowhere', then technically; aren't we half way to 'somewhere'?"

Does this make sense? I would like to believe so.

"The Hindu Upanishads speak of three types
attitudes - Satwa Guna, Rajo Guna and Tamo Guna.
Rajo Guna means excess thinking than what is
needed. Projects with over confidence are the most
susceptible to unexpected damage. Tamas means
darkness. Tamo Guna person can not assure any
thing. He treats things as if they are dreams. At
times, he goes through extremist methods to make
his projects successful - like the adventures in
dreams. Satwa Guna person keeps his confidence on
practicality. He goes through all details allowing
negative and positive possibilities. He speaks of
the viability of the project but never assures
with full confidence. He is successful most
of the times.

In a world of n number of unexpected and unknown
possibilities, how can any one be absolutely be
confident of his project?"

Nothing stays permanently the same, be it organic or inorganic matter, tangible or intangible matter. So is there anything at all that doesn't change in this universe?

When our solar system comes into alignment in 2012 will the earths magnetic feild shift so dramatically that the atoms or Energy our bodies are made of , vibrate at a higher frequency causing us to shift from this "physical" dimension to a non or semi. physical state of being ? Thus allowing our electrical brain waves to "co-mingle" or communicate telepathically putting an end to "original sin" The Lie?

What is it about Darwin's theory that engenders such violent reactions...verbal and otherwise? Creationists spit venom, evolutionists refuse to admit that "theory" is just that, theory, and spit an equal amount of venom.
I ran across this question...(in biology)
"Why isn't evolution true?"
Additional Details
"I have to find reasons it isn't true then I have to prove the argument. For class."
I invite you all to take a look at the answers, before you answer this question......and no, I am not looking for approbation for my answer to it.

I read this Yahoo answer
< Here is a description of the office bully.

====================================
A workplace bully subjects the
target to unjustified criticism and trivial faultfinding.
In addition, he or she humiliates the target, especially in front of others, and ignores, overrules, isolates and excludes the target. If the bully is the target's superior, he or she may: set the target up for failure by setting unrealistic goals or deadlines, or denying necessary information and
resources; either overload the target with work or take all work away (sometimes replacing proper work with demeaning jobs); or increase responsibility while removing authority. Regardless of specific tactics, the
intimidation is driven by the bully's need to control others.

When we live all of our life for the image that is our physical body we do not realize we are living a life based on our image instead of a life based upon what we feel and what is within the beauty of our mind? What would you do if you didn't have an image? What would you do with your life? Who and how would your mind operate? These are a few basic questions.

Ive been wondering this for a while. Can something really be random? example, a dice roll. While it seems random, i think it could be calculatable [although it would be improbable to do so] but if you look at all the forces acting on it, like the movement of your hand, the heat, air speed hitting the dice, and all the hundreds of other variables... wouldn't you be technically able to calculate what side the dice would land on? this is all theoretical, of course, nobody would do that many calculations. But still... isnt every outcome calculateable no matter how chaotic it is?

Folks with control issuses, really should not try to answer this, as their answers will always be biased towards trying to control a person or situation.

i have a quest. regarding this, you can comment if you like. i went to see a lady who had this ability some time ago and she was even hired by the cops, etc, so she was not a fake, plus she was a very good person. she mentioned this particular man twice (a romantic interest) but when i went for a second reading (and my last one) she mentioned him too but what surprised me was that she didn't in fact say that was it and we'd be together. so that probably means he's not the one right. understand i'm not addicted to these things but it was a nice piece of news :) thanx

A lot of us heard the phrase "You cannot judge a book by its cover" but a lot of us still allow the first impressions to last. We still give more attention to the most attractive person before we even know their character. Why do this happen when we should know better?
