Society & Culture - 21 September 2007

Anyone have any good costume ideas? I like making costumes (which is why i'm asking so early) but if you have instructions on how to make a particular costume, or where to buy one, that'd be really appreciated too.

... has ceased and that our further advancement will come in the form of technology and/or knowledge (perhaps including an increase in our ability to use our existing mental faculties)?

Yeah, I'd post this in biology but most of them aren't great at rational speculation. :)

SO much bad stuff has happened this week, I'm not even going to begin to share...

just wondering, what do you do when you're having a bad week/bad luck, and how do you change your luck?
(by the way, I've tried 'looking on the bright side', but my bright side's run out)

I pray to God and I get thrown on my bed, my mind has some kinda thought control(mentel ilness??) I could be praying for God to free me, and all of a sudden I am telling God to suck my .... do you get my point?? Alot more dirtier then that. I could be praying for God to give me power in Jesus name, then all of a sudden my mind takes over and I see a pitcher of a demon, saying ask me for power. My mind suddenly starts wanting to ask power from him, then I tell my mind to shut up then I call on Jesus to help or bind the evil spirit, and poof I am wipded on my bed. Some angry feeling comes over me. So here I am crazy on the Lord, waiting to be freed. Calling for rightousness and power, and to be part of the gosple, being thrown around on my bed as I lay there in meditation on Gods face.

I use to take medication, but all that stuff ever did was cause me to want to kill myself. And I tryed once. Ever sense I trust and pray, I am happy.

So could you keep me in your prayer's?

A good deed you send out returns to you in a bad deed

If you believe that karma is real and you believe what newton stated "every action has an equal and opposite re-action"Then wouldn't that mean every good deed you sent, results in a bad deed towards you?

The opposite re-action of good is bad, therefore; if i were to steal from a man an equal and opposite good thing would happen to me, meaning I would get something of the same value for free.

This would make sense of the age old quote "bad things happen to good people"

This even makes sense of the biblical realm, If god is all pure, then it was ultimately inevidible that a equal and opposite force would be created (Satan)

Does my reasoning seem logical to you?

How important do you think it is to tell your family that you no longer follow the same religion as they do?

I moved away from home and now I live in a different state. While I was in college my views on my religion changed to something they may not approve of. Should I tell them about it anyway? Or just keep it to myself?

... your faith's views? A few examples from eastern faiths include dharma, tao, balance, etc; these terms often lose their meaning outside of the delicate context of an entire faith. Do you find it difficult to communicate these concepts to those of Abrahamic traditions (or outside your own, in general)?

Years ago, I was at a friend's party. His dad came into the room complaining of acute chest pains in the left regions. We all knew that he was having a heartattack. The most terrible thing was when we were trying to recesitate him, he started to shout out that he saw fire and was in a cave! The paramedics came and rushed him to the hospital where he died later that night. My question is this "Do you believe that he could've seen Hell even before he was completly dead and is Hell real"?
