What ideas did you hold as beliefs until you were smart enough to gather data on your own and come to your own conclusions?

I know this sounds stupid, but I am really afraid of maggots. Its so bad that I cant even eat rice. Does anyone else have this fear? Does anyone know what it is called?

ive asked this question before but i wasnt detailed enough some people said its a Poltergeist, i dont think its that.. there was no movement of objects or doors/windows..

i was awake and the phone rang, none of the phones were plugged in and the cells were off. i then fell asleep and had a dream of something banging my walls. before i could open my eyes, a female voice said "we'll be back" it didnt sound nice either.

I wasnt sleeping, i went upstairs and slept in a different room, had a dream with walls banging again, nothing else. Can anyone tell me waht this means or what sort of thing does this?

(btw about 6-7 years ago we had a priest come in, because there was a bitten piece of black bread layin near our door step almost every friday before 6am, after that it was gone)

The birthday party is being held for a physician I work with. He awarded me last year for excellence in my field. I am fine when I am at work, but socially on the outside, I guess you could say my self esteem is just crap, and I am getting really nervous because I am expected to show up at the party place in 2 hours. It makes me have a sick feeling in my throat and I cannot decide what to wear, what to take along, and how to behave when I get there. My neighbor friend is supposed to meet me there. I asked him to go just for moral support and now I am not sure if that was such a good idea. All of the other partiers will be bringing their spouses and significant others. How do I cope with all of this? I need advice quick.

I think the answer should be the same for men and women.

These days we are strangely celebrating our week dollar because it will make our exports less expensive to foreign markets. But what do we have to sell? Beyond the obvious market goods (weapons (America is the world biggest weapons dealer), aeronautics, medicine, raw materials, and licensing agreements), what else are we selling to the world? Nobody wants our cars anymore, all the world’s nick-nacks are made overseas, we hardly produce electronics anymore, farming is becoming unaffordable, and how are we keeping afloat? We are quickly loosing or edge on technology; we are sending all our factory jobs away to cheaper labor. Seems we have a huge service sector, but that doesn't bring overseas money. We don't do textiles anymore. Are we in trouble? Have we been sold out to multi-national conglomerates? Should we prepare for the next economic down turn? How much more money can we borough? We buy from overseas non-stop, are nailing shut our own coffin?

I dreamed one of my cousins who is going through a very rough time. He's a heavy smoker, drinker and drug user and he is extremely close to hitting rock bottom. I haven't seen him for quite a while now and the other day I had a dream about him, but in my dream he was some sort of authority, like a detective or police officer and was clean, well dresses and sharp looking, he looked very intelligent and professional. Well, I was driving on the road when I was pulled over by him and for whatever reason he would not cut me a break, he gave a ticket and would not let me go. So, the next morning I remember my dream and wondered why all of a sudden he appeared in my dream after not having any contact for a long time plus he was very opposite to what he really is. I'm just curious, I'm afraid that maybe something happen to him, cause nobody knows where he is. can you tell me if I'm just making non sense or if it means anything at all.

I have a DVD drive thing and when I put a disc in it knows what movie it is, but then this box comes up and I click the folder and then there are a bunch of files on it - which I'm guessing are the chapters or something like that - but then the computer says it doesn't know what the file type is so it can't read it.
what do i do?
Thanks!

I realize that these are relative terms, and that it's a very vague question. But still. What's your answer?
