Are we humans in the process of freeing ourselves from our collective ego or are we becoming more like slaves to our ego and its desires?

I believe there must be. It is surprisingly easy to ask a question that hasn't been asked before. Example: Do you like eating raw fish while watching Friends and drinking wine? And think of all the words that could still be invented. Odoughplut. Deomar. Quaridisquar. Flishprash.

I had a dream that I ( a man in leather out doors clothes of about the 18th century) was trying to make my way through a densly grown tropical forrest. I was (it was me but I was a man)
was chopping and walking and chopping and walking . I was making headway but it was slow and tedious. Could it have been a past life memory or wishful thinking?

Is there a such thing has to much love? Or just so much love one person can accept from the other? Can love go to far? Or not far enough? Is it actually possible to love someone to much? If so, how and why?

I would want to be reborn as a wolf,...because as a wolf you hang out in packs and as a mother wolf , if someone tries to cross my path and my cubs/pups, I would destroy them and the CAS [Children's Aid Society] couldn't do anything about it.

You know, like a saying that you live you're life by. I've been thinking all day, and I just can't find one that truly fits me. I'm about 5'6. blonde, blue eyes, althletic, I have a bunch of brothers and two dogs, I love to sing and play guitar, I love volleyball, I hate math and love French and English. That's about me in a nutshell, please help me get a mantra, but not one that's normal like, "Don't worry, be happy", or "That which doesn't kill you makes you stronger." Something unique. Thanks!

Thanks for your help!

I get abused when people are too shallow to get a philosophical question..Why don't these narrow minded, uneducated idiots go for the less challenging categories on YA?

Both philosophies consider individuals or ethnic/racial groups in an isolated fashion, "floating in mid-air" without connection to society at large.

We are a social species, and have evolved using cooperation to survive. We run in groups and the group relation must be considered in any evaluation. We have to be TAUGHT to be selfish, either through learning about shortages through life experience, or through philosophies that encourage "self above all" thinking, either directly like "selfishness is good" or indirectly like "My personal relationship with God is what counts."

Babies seem to naturally prefer people they see as helping others. Check out this link. http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/200...

So in spite of their discussions of evolution or their names, are philosophies like Ayn Rand's "positivism" or "social Darwinism" actually ANTI-evolution?

Do these philosophies, along with religion and capitalism, go against natural human inclinations?

Q: how do you view time?

A: "everyone has a different capacity to handle information. ever wonder how some people get so much done in a day, while you get only 1/3 as much done in a day? they can handle more information and their sense of time is different. for them a day is longer, for you a day is shorter.
so you say theres not enough time in a day. but if you looked at the world differently then your sense on time will change also."

so would you agree that geniuses are persons that have more time in their day for example Leonardo da vinci who created MANY things, it may be asked how did he have so much time? how did he do all that in his ? do you think he just had more time as i believe time is relative.

May sound silly but, is space made up of
a)quantifyable parts or
b)completely empty and essentially non-existant?

Presumably answer A signifies a finite universe surrounded by event horizon and B signifies that only matter is finite within a potentially infinate\reoccuring arena?

Does anyone know or are we all just spouting crap?
