I am a christian and according to Bible, it dosen't identifies humans to be apes before as in Genesis is written that God made human in his own appearence so my God cannot be have an apes like face but maybe in some region after Adam & Eve were created, there have been existed some such kind of organisms. What do you think the Lord Jesus Christ's chosen peoples?????????

ıi Love SCience,physics ,maths.My Parents said that i wasnt intelligent so i have to study for just to find out a work?)I was an hard working student in highschool, my ambition was medical but i won chemistry engineering i was happy at first times because it was related with science indeed an important field of science.Than i realise that all our study was based on memorising.I mean not like an historian but when there is an experiment if we add that components this will occur,But why and how is a big question mark.It is not similar to the chemistry lessons we used to have in highschool.Now i dont like laboratuary lessons.AND i have lost my excitement of curiosity on science and searching.I dont know what i am gonna do .I used to read alot of books now they are also meaningless to me .I dont do anything except internet and other daily activities. Can i have anything to rescue from this bad mood?)

From what I know, these cultures are community centered and surely cannot tolerate a thief or rapist in their midst. I'm interested in how they deal with those who cannot live within accepted bounds.

This is long, but please go through them all. And yes, there's a question for you at the end answerable only after you're clear of what this long essay is about.

Everything is about demand and supply. In order for a company to have sustainable growth, it must either increase production (thus increase sales, hopefully) or reduce costs (including human capital by substituting it with the latest technologies) or both.

Imagine if all the companies around the world succeeded in doing both, then it will be super high productivity and mass unemployment (or underemployment). When this happens, how in the world will the market be able to pay for all the excessive products/services when most are either unemployed or underemployed and thus can't afford much?

Governments will of course introduce new projects to stimulate growth and employment but I believe these new projects will still be futile because the modern consumerism is self-created (not natural) and has the tendency to break down. Next, banks can create economic spending by giving out easy credits that make a lot of people bankrupt, which is also equally unsustainable.

Progress is there to be seen but it's only at certain places, not every places. When a country or a company grows, it grows at the expense of others. Introducing more money into the market merely increase inflation that leaves a lot of people at disadvantaged. More loans merely create more debt that leads to recession.

In the end, when it's all about growth, I really don't think capitalism is sustainable because one's gain is another's loss. Of course everyone can win, but that'll be illusory by splitting the value of $1 to $0.5 by increasing things from $1 to $2, for example, to create the illusion of growth. The current capitalism is about substituting resources with money. But this is wrong. While money can't be depleted through constant credit creation, a majority of the depleted natural resource can never be replaced.

Capitalism is where the society exist to serve the economy, not the economy to serve the society. We see a lot of advertisements promoting new demands (harmful and unnatural demands) to stimulate sales and growth. In the end, the richer one group gets, the poorer the other group. Equal wealth distribution is critical. This is to eliminate rich-poor gap between people. But if everyone prefer only to uphold the status quo, motivated by selfishness and greed, then sooner or later the economy will come crashing down without revival. By that time, a lot of resources have gone to waste. My idea is this - the world can only survive (in the near future) by abolishing the economy, making it serve the society instead of the other way around, eliminating unequal wealth distribution (making everyone equally as rich/poor as another), and reforming our current system of living without working (by replacing every human capital in production with technologies). Other than all these, life will never get better. People in turn must change themselves to be cooperative, not greedy, and work not because they have to but because they want to contribute.

Now, I want to hear your opinion.

You live in North America, you are North American. I am not against multiculturalism or the hotpot, but we do have certain standards and just as immigrants and refugees need to learn English, they need to respect the values of the larger culture. I see Africans, Eastern Europeans, Hispanics, Jews and other groups bend over backwards. Even Natives want to get with the times while keeping their language and traditions on the side.

But say with this stand-off in Caledonia, it is a different issue. Canadians should not be banned from showing their own flag. It is not that I am going to rip up an Ethiopian or American flag, but it is Canada. It is one thing to speak Cree and go to the cultural and arts center twice a week and a whole other thing to be militant and separatist. It is one thing to be a moderate or conservative Muslim and a whole other thing to support the agenda of extremists.

There are psychologists who specialize in mental illness that are still searching for the causes of these tragic conditions. Mental disorders are regarded as diseases. The medical perspective on psychopathology has several powerful implications. Whether or not specific neurological roots can be identified, and the medical model suggests that we should not blame the mentally ill for their condition. We do not control events coming into our lives, but we choose how to respond. On the anxiety disorders the part that affects me is the Phobias. I believe I have all those phobias, but not obsessively.

Rich countries like USA and Britain also borrow money from other countries/organisations. Why do they do that? Why don't they instead print all the money that they want? Please answer in detail.

everything you do is wrong. your friends no longer are your friends, your family is always pissed off at you, and every event in your life seems like a let down and a drag. like, you always feel confused, ashamed and everything is dull, and you become antisocial and very out of place anywhere you are, to the point of where your only comfort is being alone. but when your alone you got nothing. all you can think about is how everything seems so full of s*it. and instead of just leaving you alone, everyone begins to be pissed off and annoyed because you choose to be alone. even the person you thought understood you the most blows you off, when you feel oblivious, even when thier the only person you could have a good time with. have you ever felt like disappearing?
