Quite true but I have this feeling this will fall on deaf ears. We seem to be speaking to a mind ruled entirely by the id. |

I think a fundamental question is, "does the answer to this question matter?" Of course it matters! If the world doesn't exist, what could he possibly order for lunch today? It doesn't matter - it would matter if there was some way to know whether the reality we perceive actually exists, but since ... |

ok, I can do that. for me, love means that when two people are together, they can always get along, those two pople need to be able to agree on everything, share the same beliefs, and never argue. That's not love ... that's a warped fantasy. You want someone who will agree with you on everything, t... |

What for?....If I really wanted to I could probably find any useful drug through other means than a prescription. And I feel all a cognitive behavioral therapist will do is tell me all I'm doing wrong...well I get enough of that from people in my family, in life in general and from my own mind Can'... |

No, the problem with LTV is that it doesn't account for scarcity, while marginal value does. |

They grow them in poop. They 'pasteurize' the poo to sterilize it and there's other stuff like peat moss etc in there but still. Poo fungus. Yuck. |

Will some of us live forever? Given the biological facts about us, not very likely. We are made of stuff that has a short shelf life compared to eternity. After about fifty cell divisions a healthy cell dies. Only cancerous cells keep on dividing. ruveyn The reason is mainly because the telomeres g... |

The Hamas thugs are fanatics. The Republicans on the whole are as sane as you are. They have different objectives and interests from yours. I don't see the difference, to be honest. One could say Republicans are fanatics - or that Hamas has different objectives and interests. Or vice-versa. Just de... |

When people can buy or make their own tools and buy the raw materials they need for themselves they can open their own businesses. The poor oppressed proles do not have their own means of production. Marx proposed that they take those by force. That is theft. They did have their own means of produc... |

why does no one here understand the major importance of finding that speical soemone and being in love? We do ... it's just not the end-all be-all of life, and this is seriously unhealthy: my life is worthless without someone to love This will either prevent you from ever finding anyone, or, likely... |

They saw The Light. Actually they retained most of the worst aspects. The internationalism, the idea that the masses do not know what's best and need to be dictated to or deceived along, the authoritarianism, the idea of the state as champion of ideological transformation.

I believe that any couple should have the right to go to a religious institution of which they are a member and be married under the precepts of that group. For example, a SS couple could go to a unitarian church and have their marriage recognized by the members of that group. Churches that do not ... |
