Society & Culture - 30 January 2007

In this Kali Yuga, when men are weak and short-lived, when we live in destitute circumstances and are led by the morally corrupt, how can a person fulfill their Vedic duty? Fortunately, salvation is not so hard. In the beloved Bhagavad Gita, Lord Krishna, the ultimate incarnation of Godhead, offers himself to us - not with sacrifice, but with sheer love to lift us above our mortal coil and unto the waiting arms of the transcendent. Your liberation, your salvation is dependent upon you simply accepting this truth and turning to him with all love. HARE KRISHNA!

The point of this is simple. If you encounter new information, you are required to assimilate it. How you choose to assimilate this depends upon you. Will you reject the idea or will you accept it? Many religions are fraught with either/or propositions. This isn't a unique quality among any of them.

All the questions asked on yahoo, can be, or are answered before the question is asked... or, any question can be answered by searching online...in like 2 minutes.... aside from the fun of answering questions, what's the point? i think it's a trap.

this is purely theoretical, and i don't think either side will ever happen, but imagine it does:
if you believe exclusively in creationism, and you were suddenly faced with indisputable fact that evolution is 100% true, what would be your reaction? how would this change your life?

and inversely, if you are an evolutionist, and it was proven beyond a doubt that creation was 100% fact, how would you react?

please, only true intelligent answers. no one wants to hear your uneducated cow patties.

Nobody knows why this hill was built but.... it is in the middle of an area which has a high number of circles appearing. They are difficult to see at ground level, but if you built a great big viewing platform...

I fantasize about girl girl sex very often, so I wanted to try it out and do it. Will that make me a lesbian? A friend of mine said No - I would be a bi-sexual because I am just doing it for sex and sex only not a relationship.
I guess my issue is girl on girl sex is a lesbian act. If I have sex with a girl will that make me a lesbian even if only do it once?

Those who did not watch the show from the beginning would not have seen Shilpa sat in the bedroom 'daily' with Ken & Jermaine - making derogatory comments about Jade, her mother and their level in the class system. shilpa is manipulitive and has done nothing but wallow in self promotion and I got tired of hearing 'for the love of indian people' and 'I'm here to represent indians all ove the world'. What utter rubbish. shilpa should get off her 'mother Theresa' pedestal and do her best to help Jade, Jo and Daniella instead of wallowing in their hurt. This was a simple case of nasty bullying and should be recognised as such. Shilpa should stop chasing the fame and 'indians' should stop burning dummys everytime we say something that remotely associates them with india! by the way - I say again - I am not a racist - just bloody fed up with ballet dancing around 'some' people of indian origin. If this doesnt stop Shilpa could end up doing more damage than good.

We all know US is a powerful country.But apparently they likes to pick on other smaller and weaker countries and their ppl.Furthermore they hv this bad habit of interfering other countries' affairs.But yet they cant even bother to resolve their own problems(e.g.New Orleans which was badly hit by Hurricane Katerina).Can't they just mind thier won business? I do respect their country as a whole but sometimes lots of ppl felt that they are rubbing salt into others' wounds..Well I'm sure they do hv problems themselves but do they really care to put in extra effort to resolve and find solutions for their problems instead?
