I'd be really interested to see a study into this - nerds really do seem to have adenoid problems and gay men often (not always of course) speak with a high voice.

I'm 18, 5'2 and 101 lbs and head cheerleader.

Last night I fainted during our fill the gym basketball game. Lets just say the gym was full. I woke up, everything was blurry and all I could see was the ceiling of the gym but I was moving about to go under a door. I felt all these hands under me and I screamed and started shaking until they finally lowered me. It was the group guys who paint their bodies. I dont know why they had to carry me like that and even though I appreciate them moving me, I'm so confused. Why so many of them carrying me and why so high up? I'm freaked out by what happened, but even more confused. I've never seen someone who has fainted handeled like that. Why would they do that?

what do you think of those cd's that 'affirm' positive qualities to the mind? Your suppose to sleep all night listening to it until you deeply believe it.

After the US soldiers murdered 200 women and children at Sand Creek, the US Government condemned the slaughter of innocence lives, and said the Cheyenne would be compensated. They were then thrown on a reservation in Oklahoma. Why won't the US Government settle with this tribe, like they've settled with the Japanese for WWII, etc. Their Ancestors deserve this. There will always be distance between the Cheyenne and the US unless the Government settles like they promised. Your only as good as your word, and The US governments word is no good. Cheyenne and Arapaho are humble people, who would give you their last blanket if you needed it. They basically gave the US their land for nothing. The Cheyenne were murdered, and from journals that were kept by soldiers, some of their last words were, "We your friend", why you do this? Then their throats were slashed.

I'm not sure how to ask this or where it shoud be categorized (maybe religion and spirtuality?).

We've all seen how people of different religous faiths seem VERY convinced that their belief is true. But they must know (at least on some level) that they COULD be wrong.

I see this also in believers of astrology, alien abduction, psychics and so on. They all must be aware that most people do not believe in the things that they do, and they must be aware that science does not confirm what they believe.

So how do they go on saying with so much certianty that their version of reality is the correct one?

I mean, as a scientist, I don't think I would ever go aroud asserting anything as the absolute truth, and I always add qualifications such as "this is my current understanding."

I don't have a background in psychology so I'm wondering what people think.

Thanks

Al Qeda grows in strength and numbers by spreading propaganda. A fundamental part of its propaganda is the perversion of Islam. Is the mobilization of the U.S. troops in predominantly Muslims regions an effective tool to eliminate them? Islam clearly condemns the actions of Al Qeda. So is it more effective to hunt down Al Qeda opperatives or to deter poeple from believing the Al Qeda's propaganda?

I aks anyone who wishes to respond by saying that Islam promotes terrorism to please tell me where specifically in the Koran it says this.

It's a high-pitched tone that supposedly only people under age 20 can hear. (yes, like a human dog whistle)
A co-worker of mine "played" it and I could hear it but another co-worker could not.
Im a thirtysomething so I was flattered.
If you have heard of it, what is it's purpose?

If so why does Revelation 13 say "whoever has wisdom calculate" the number of the beast. It is a mans number and the number is 8.
Roman scribes mistranslated Revelation to cover the fact that Octavian(8) was the beast of Revelation and the father of Jesus.
They replaced "octave" with 666 refering to Pope Sixtus ii who the Zionist murdered believing they were ending Christianity. They made a mistake.

Where do I look? Google is out, and the articles must be submitted with the paper. I have never done this kind of research. All I know is to hide in the library and dig thru stacks of dusty journals, and that is not recommended for this project. Thanks!

After parting way with someone you thought you would surely marry, due to their lies. Been on a tight budget since college, graduated, but can't find a job. Wrecked your car in an accident.

Stress caused stomach pain, weaken overall and personality changed.

After awhile, found out the accident cause damage in my brain, leading to a type of epilepsy call complex partial seizure - all 5 senses - touch, smell, sight, hearing, speech are all affected when the seizure occur. Most damaging is its effect on consciousness - causing me to be unaware of anything while it occur. Leading to my driver license to be taken away - job searching became much more complex.

Dealing with things ...
Going anywhere is a pain, depending on other people
Money is no problem since there are none to begin with
Stress only seem to increase with time
Medication require money
She got engaged/delete number but can't forget
Credit card collection calls
School loans..

all at once!
passage to adulthood? haha
