| Well what I think others don't like is the fact that I express myself, even when it's about something negative.. Sure, there are some things I feel negatively about (all for good reason), but that's one of the things I like about myself. I'm not single sided, and I will show it. I also have a thing ... |

| Why do you hate religion so much? Anti-religious venom seems to be pretty common on WrongPlanet. Almost the norm, in fact. Members like me are the fly in the ointment, I guess. More like.... http://englishinteractive.net/IMAGES/flyswatter.jpg ;) Oh man, that's funny heh. But this is where I differ ... |

| Actually it would not change who you ARE as a person, it would change how you function. You would not be dead in the end, because the way you function has nothing to do with who you truely are. |

I just feel like everyone hates me (I'm always told my perception is way off but you never know) and I want to make some changes. So I guess I will change the question to: (For you guys), what would you change about me to ... |

| WHY is 'darkness' bad? Why do people associate it with evil and light with good, when light is intense enough it can be destructive.... Literally, 'darkness' isn't 'bad'. We are using metaphors here. In this case 'darkness' stands for ugly/evil, and light stands for what one can percieve as the opp... |

| Curing and preventing can be the same, depending on your perspective. Preventing "people" from getting it is the end result of curing, as it is genetic. Curing involves seeking out what is defective, and replacing it with the effective. Which is why curing 'autism' would be stupid, just like the id... |

| I would think that genetics would work better for preventing, rather than curing. Though I also think it would be a really bad idea. Curing is actually a lot less risky and challenging than preventing. Remember to "prevent" means to keep a person from "getting" it in the first place. However, if yo... |
