Society & Culture - 12 July 2006

I was opening the door for some people who had just bought a cedar chest from me at my home. I live off a very busy main street. Then hawk just flew right down on my picnic table within about 4 feet of us and stayed there for about 3 to 4 minutes. I went back in to get my camera by then it flew to the garage roof on the edge and starred at us for another couple of minutes before flying off.
I believe this may have been a sign or message of some sort.
Does anyone have a clue what that may be?
Thanks :)!

Why are some girls referred to as hot, while others are referred to as pretty or beautitful etc? Is there really a difference between these terms?

P.S. I asked this question about a week ago, but would like to generate some more opinions. If you haven't already answered, please do!

Do you believe in aliens? If you believe in aliens and not a deity, explain why you believe there is more evidence for extraterrestrials than a deity. Thanks, and have a nice day!

When your trying to work and concentrate no matter how many times you ask them to be quite they ignore you or refuse or continue to make their noise. Why do people (mainly family members) do this? It's so rude and inconsiderate.

Some times I just don't know whether I am a bi or straight or even a lesbo. I don't feel easy in front of a lady, but I am totally at ease with guys and I can have sex with mens. I can't even imagine having it with a woman since I am so shy with them maybe because too self conscious. So what am I? Is this normal?

Why is the female body overwhelmingly stripped down to nakedness, while the male body isn't that often? For ex: why does soft core porn shown a woman fully neud, while the man's penis is covered up or hidden and only revealed in hard core porn? Another ex: Why do women wear tight or revealing clothes to show off her body, while men wear loose fitting clothes to hide their (lower) body?

Answers from men and women would be much appreciated!

P.S. I asked this question a couple of days ago, but I would like to generate some more opinions. So please answer, if you haven't already!

Why is it, that even though the Blacks get so much handed to them, they still commit so much crime and drop out of school?
When the Irish came to America, they were ridiculed and thrown into the ghetto but managed to get out without any support. Why can't the Blacks do the same, especially with all the support they get from the government?

Like at a family gathering, workplace, hanging out with friends, or just having a bunch of the same race together together. do people make jokes about other races of people? do they talk about immigration laws and talk crap behind other peoples backs? are people more racist than the fake front some of them put on? why do people say they aren't racist but in reality they are?

Honestly how many of us think we should force others to believe as we do? Don't we all believe in freedom to choose who or if we will believe and follow? I am not saying stop reaching out or stop discussing and debating. I am just tired of posts about hate and abolishing ANYONES choice concerning religion or lack of it.

I had an epiphany one day while I was pondering the nature of things. What if there is some weird alien race that exist on some ethereal level like spirits, and they farm planets through out our universe, sentient souls are their source of nutrients. They find planets that have intelligent life then plant the seed of religion in the early stage so as to make a species more docile and likely to come to them when they die. The light at the end of the tunnel is not the door way to heaven, but some strange soul harvesting machine. This alien race would have extensive knowledge of the universe and technology that is beyond us by billions of years, oh and they had strange powers. They would plant spies on Earth to help spread fictitious religious stories in an effort to trap us and blind us to the truth. What if there technology was able to cause great catastrophes on earth so that many people could die at once, it would be like a harvest of the crops, of course leaving people alive so that the crop could replenish it self. Maybe if we knew that this was going on we would be able to get away, and that’s why they plant the seed of religion, to keep us in the dark about their malevolent intensions. I know it sounds crazy, but no crazier than the stories of religion it self.
