If it was Justin Timberlake, P. Diddy or Michael Jackson that put on a horrible performance at the MTV VMA's, would they get the same sympothy? In fact, how many people feel sorry for Michael Jackson right now?

If male celebrities get less sympothy for being head cases and having issues, what does this mean? How do feminists feel about this issue?

(No, this isn't a "man-hating" question, it's a serious question, folks...) The Bible tells that "man" was the first human on this planet, and that "woman" was "made from" man. Biblical theory aside, what if men actually "came from" women? Could it be that women were first on this planet? Could women have produced asexually (without men)? Could the "Y" chromosome actually be a genetic mutation of the "X" chromosome? Could this explain why men have nipples equipped with milk ducts, and levels of the female hormone "estrogen"?

Serious answers only, please!

I was watching a program called 'The Fabulous Life of Filthy Rich Billionaires' on TMF this afternoon and couldn't get over the stuff these guys buy with their cash. Some of them were buying huge estates to live on so that they could get rid of the annoying neighbour issue and whiel I could understand where they were coming from it got me thinking. These guys probably spent their whole lives trying to make and keep friends but the minute they got a few quid they decided to spend the rest of their lives keeping them away!
Do you think having money like that would make you change? Would you be more suspicious of friends - old and potential - or would it make you a bit greedy, like the saying goes "The more you have the more you want"? Or would you just think f**k it and have a ball?!!!!

When you keep trying, and trying, and trying, yet things don't change, what can you do? How do you keep a positive outlook when nothing is moving in the right direction?

I have noticed that being good listener, showing measured sens of humor and telling pleasant and true things in the right moment create charm in relations - is this part of the art of communicating or an hypocrisy?

My family has never found out about the abuse i suffered at the hands of my father and my cousin. It began when i was 2 and lasted till 3rd grade when my mom divorced my dad and my cousin committed suicide. Growing up my family always just considered me the "bad seed," and never really tried to figure out why a 2 yr old would begin acting the way that i did. I didn't straighten myself out until around 18 years of age, I worked through the feelings about my abuse and have moved on.

I want to share with my family what I went through so that maybe they can begin to understand who I am a little better, but honestly do not feel it is my responsibility to help them through the feelings they will inevitably have about the abuse and myself. I don't feel it is my job to help them, they never helped me. Is this selfish of me, should I share with them and make myself available to talk about their feelings or keep it to myself and let them continue to think negatively about me?

1. This morning I did, regarding the Tree of Knowledge of Good & Evil. It was a good tree. Nothing poisonous about it. It was just the one tree God said to not eat of.

So? It was a Holy Tree. Special. The knowledge of good & evil is this. To eat of this tree, you would disobey God. To not eat of it is obeying God. Eating the fruit did't kill them. Disobeying God did. That is what evil is. Disobeying/rebelling Gods Word. To disobey God realizing this is sin & sin is evil.
What killed them 1st, was actually then denied the Tree of Life & so dieing 'spiritually'. Then physical death happened within 1000 yrs.
So? This is like the 1st tithe. We can touch it. Smell it. Just not eat of it. It is Holy to the Lord.

2. Then also, Jesus is the firstling, born as shepherds are in the field. He is the 'Lamb of God' So? The firstling is a tithe. (Like Able) So? He fulfilled the tithe on the cross? Paying Himself for us.

What do you think of the new understandings?

what's the point in trying to do anything if the end result would (in most cases) be unfair?
like if you did really well in school and you end up with bad results at the end of it, then there would have been no point in trying.

sorry if it's hard to understand, i'm real tired at the minute
