Tell me, what is your biggest turn on? turn off? how often are you in the mood? and please let me know if you are male or female. i was just sitting here thinking how interesting the differences are between people in this way. my husband is unlike any man i've ever known when it comes to turn ons, turn offs, sexual appetite. this question isn't meant to be perverted and nasty or anything. i'm just curious to hear what different people are into. thanks for your time.

Isn't "instinct" short-form for "inferior intellectual processes", as in, they ain't human so human concepts are alien to them?

Where is the "instinctive" urge for an animal to fight to the death to protect its young? When a human does it, we call it "Love", when an animal does it, we call it "instinct".

When humans in a family group watch out for one another, we call it "Love", but when prairie dogs or baboons do it, we call it "instinct".

Isn't "instinct" simply a way for us to assert our perceived 'superiority' over other animals?

One day there was a man walking through the woods and came accross a bear...a big hungery looking bear! The man froze dead in his tracks hopeing that the bear didn't see him,and to try to figure out what to do next. The bear saw him and started after him...the man bolted thinking that he could outrun this bear but soon started to realize that he was not in very good shape like he used to be. He looked back and saw the bear was gaining on him so he started to weave in and out of trees,sliding down reviens, running around big rocks and just couldn't shake this bear.He knew at this time that he was bear meat, but thought that he would run down to the river and try to make it to the rappids in hopes that he could get away that way.So he gave it his very best, he ran and ran as fast as he could and looked back just before he got to the river bank thinking that he was going to make it just to see the bear in mid air comming down on him;landing on him with such force that it knocked the air right out of him! The bear was on top of him now with both paws on his shoulders and sitting on his legs crushing them with the enormous wieght of this animal.The bear was drouling and had raised one paw to give the finale blow!! At that time the man yelled out,"OH GOD SAVE ME!"Just as he said that the bear froze in mid swipe,the river stoped,the wind had stoped blowing, and the man thought this can't be happening am I dead? Just as he said that there was this thundering voice that said "ALL THIS TIME YOU HAVE DENIED MY EXISTENCE AND RIDICULE ALL THOSE THAT BELEIVED IN ME,AND NOW IN YOUR TIME OF DISPARE YOU HAVE THE GALL TO CALL OUT MY NAME!YOU WANT ME TO SAVE YOU? WELL I'LL TELL YOU, I'LL SAVE YOU IF YOU ANNOUNCE YOUR FAITH IN ME TO ALL THAT YOU KNOW AND ALL THAT YOU MEET FOR THE REST OF YOUR DAYS!" Well the man thought about this for a minute and said to himself that he would be the laughing stock for the rest of his life if he did this and that he would be better dead,BUT then he thought he was slick and said to GOD,"Well I am not worthy of this and asked god if he could just make the bear a christian. GOD said "IF THIS IS WHAT YOU WANT THEN SO BE IT!" Then the river started to flow again and the wind blew accross his face and the bear stoped for a minuet and looked at the man, The man said "please Mr.bear find it in your hart to let me go?" The bear just gruntted and raised one paw then the other and the man thought he was gettin out of this, then the bear put both paws together and said,"thank you lord for this meal that i'm about to have!!!"AMEN

When I read the Bhagavad Gita and reflect about how God created this universe, everything else seems so superfluous.

2006-09-29 07:48:55 · 22 answers · asked by Anonymous in Religion & Spirituality

I'm confused. I've just read an article where a scientist has categorically said that God doesn't exist. That's fine I can live with that, however, the same scientist has said that it is possible that there are an infinite number of universes of which ours is one. If that is the case and there are an infinite number of universes then surely it follows that in one of those universes there will be a God, and if so, why couldn't our universes be that one?
I don't undertand the logic of this stance.

Most people Love me but not one single person "KNOWS" me
Would you rather have someone say they love you, or they know you? Or both? (If both, elaborate on the reasons each are important to you?)

You get all your answers during the first ten minutes or so and then usually nothing. So is it alright if I repeat my question a few times looking for some more responses? Or do you think that's annoying and rude?

"(F)unctions carried out by the pre-frontal cortex area is Executive Function.

"Executive Function relates to abilities to differentiate between conflicting thoughts, determine good and bad, better and best, same and different, future consequences of current activities, working toward a defined goal, prediction of outcomes, expectation based on actions, and social "control" (the ability to suppress urges that, if not suppressed, could lead to socially unacceptable or illegal outcomes).

Love, hate, "good," "evil" and all other emotion are controlled by the human brain. They are not spiritual or supernatural.

You are locked in a 15X15X15 feet room where the floors and walls are polished marble with no imperfections. There are no doors or windows, however in the center of the ceiling there is a skylight that is 3x3 feet and is open. You are naked and at your feet lay three items. 1. A pair of prescription, non tinted glasses. 2. A leatherbound first edition of War & Peace and 3. A box of crayons. There is absolutely NOTHING else in the room. How do you save yourself?

...on a diet of meat and nothing else?

1. All food must be the flesh of a dead creature (animal, fish, bird) with no exceptions.

2. Meals must be the same size as, and eaten at least as frequently as normal meals.

3. There are no restrictions on drink so fruit/ vegetable juice can be consumed as long as it is purchased and not home-made (no smoothies)

I'm doing a study on abortion and the effect it has on a women psychologically. I don't care what side of the spectrum you are on or what your personal beliefs are when it comes to abortion. That question will probably come later. For now I just have a couple question. Please tell me what religion you are and if you believe that the human body contains a soul or spirit, then tell me, based directly on how you feel or what you personally beleive, when you beleive a human gains that spirit or soul in them, at birth? a fetus? Let me know. Thanks for the help.

If you are a front line soldier, or perform a duty which may take you on to the front line, what are the rules regarding capture (if you are the one that is captured)- are there any recommendations to take your own life or are you merely told to reveal as little as possible and try to ride it out? Thanks.

PS, assuming you are just an ordinary soldier rather than anything more involved in espionage or similar.

I never owned a slave and neither did my ancestors. Why should I have to pay? I know a lot of people don't think we should...black and white.

I think everyone should be equal and stop all this affirmative action and favoritism of races.

I think the reason people post questions here is because they wish to gather an assortment of opinions based upon personal experience. Or they are having difficulty finding a particular bit of information on the web
I find it unhelpful in the extreme to read answers that are prefaced with "This is just a guess...." or "It might be...." etc
So what prompts people to answer questions about which they have no knowledge?

Love would be completely meta-physical in it's truest definition
What about anything that involves description of character. Believe in motivation, adventure, self-worth, anything, since none of them can be proved on paper and logic.
Hmm.
Still doesn't mean god exists though, that isn't the implication here. Let's take we we have here and that exclusively.
