Creation vs. Evolution.

Seen this topic and couldn't resist. So I'll throw in my 2 cents. I used to think about this kind of stuff constantly than I realized that the answer wouldn't change anything about me or how I viewed the world so I pretty much opened up my mind to accept either. Being an accident or being created by an alien would not make much difference to me, I'm here and I'm going to enjoy myself. The quote "I'd rather be damned for who I am than accepted for what I'm not" kinda dismissed the latent fear the overly religious types like to throw around. Whether he exists or not is very relevant to you, even if you prefer to have an agnostic approach. "Enjoying youself" becomes a bit meaningless when you mature over time in the light of the deeper satisfaction you can get from doing good for others (Maslows hierarchy). With the desire to do good comes the heightened conscience of avoiding damaging others, whether you do this from a religious point of view or not. When you realise that you continuously damage others and yourself and can't help it, is when your conscience will turn you to God because we do need help, being a "good person" doesn't actually come naturally. So let's see how you fare from now, I am guessing interesting times ahead for you. It's easy to assume something is relevant but I'm sure of who I am and what I perceive. I am not exactly agnostic either. I do believe in god but I think we create our own gods after all there can be no god without an audience no matter what he/she or it is. I suppose the confusion there comes from assuming when somebody opens up to the idea of a god you assume it's the same thing you had in mind. Do I have a god? No, I have found nothing worthy in my life of bowing before no matter if it's flesh or some obscure spiritual concept. So by all philosophical points I would actually be considered an atheist. Enjoying your life and those around you I believe to be the meaning of life. The funny thing is that so many people have a lot of trouble with such a seemingly simple thing. I do feel good to do good to those who are deserving of it, giving love to those who aren't is a waste of my time and energy. And I've had interesting times already...believe Me! Now I just want to be around people that think more like I do. What you say does make sense, generally a healthy attitude. (Although obviously us christians feel the love stretches further than just those who deserve it and we need God's help to do that.) When I say interesting times , I just mean that now that I mentioned how easily we try to be good to others and fail, you may become more aware of it, or maybe not , lol. Maybe, see the thing is when you give love to everybody you stretch a commodity thin so the people who you are closest to than get less of it. It's like if you were at a bar and you bought everybody a shot of beer instead of just giving the person you cared the most about all of it. I feel the same about negative emotions as well, I try not to repress any part of my mind but at the same time not to give into compulsion. You believe you are responsible to a god, I feel I am responsible to my fellow human beings. I think trust is earned but respect is shown till it isn't warrented. |

Someone needs to explain to me, do you REALLY REALLY need a dating site to get dates? I mean seriously. You don't get asked out at Starbucks or what? Ok, just walking up to random people can be uncomfortable and some of the time you can get a unwanted reaction not because the person doesn't like you but because you approached them at the wrong time. I like this kinda thing because you can kinda get to know somebody better and share what you both like and are looking for before you meet. Hope that helps. |

Obama, like most presidents before him is a farce. He is controlled by others. All of his speeches are written by others which is blatantly obvious to anyone if you remove his teleprompter; his decisions made by others as well. He is not his own man like some think. He is intelligent and well spoken which makes him the perfect puppet! What difference does it make? Money runs this society so those that have the most always will run it. Honestly I see nothing different now than how it has been...ever. There are two issues that were never made laws and because of that this system will always be a failure as an actual democracy. 1) No law was every built to outlaw private corporations from creating our money 2) No law was ever built to outlaw lobbying Until that changes get ready for more of the same. WRONG! Article 1 Section 10.1 forbids the States from making anything but gold or silver a legal tender. The Constitution forbids the federal government from making decisions regarding legal tender completely, since it is not authorized to do so. By default, it is the lack of authorization which prohibits the federal government. Refer to amendments 9 & 10. Basically, anything that the federal government is not authorized to do is a right of the States or the people UNLESS the States are forbidden, which in this case they are as per Article 1 Section 10.1 So, ultimately, the federal government is prohibited from printing fiat money since there is not specific authorization for it in the Constitution. The States are also prohibited from printing fiat currency because Article 1 Section 10.1 limits States to only using gold or silver as money. As far as lobbying.... ANY would lose the right to address congress for action of grievence or convention if lobbying where outlawed. The best recourse is to repeal the statute put in place by the SCOTUS declaring corporations as individuls with equal rights, and the ability to fund and back elections! Ok, sure. Than why do I have dollar bills and not gold and silver? Is there anywhere you can even pay with gold or silver? It's a non-point really. And you are wrong, the U.S treasury printed kennedy dollars that were backed by silver and were not created out of debt. Too bad he was killed. (big surprise btw) And your statement on lobbying tells me you like things just fine the way they are, which I have no problem with really but when goldman sachs goals conflict with what most everybody else wants don't complain about it. To eliminate the right to "lobby" you eliminate the rights of citizens to do so as well! Sure, you fix that problem, but you create a WORSE one! The statute set for by the SCOTUS declaring corporations as people (individuals) with equal rights, THAT is the problem! It has created super PACs which now flood and influence our elections, and created the greed in congress, and crony capitalism! Citizens are left in the cold because they don't have the millions to get a seat at the table, or an invite, to speak directly to their representative. As far as the FED reserve act of 1913 (or the 16th amendment), it is unconstitutional at it's base, but with the founding of the goon squad (the IRS) the bankers exercize their control over the population, and the courts just accept it as law.....though it was NEVER ratified by majority vote of congress! Study your history and your law.... facts may astound you! You didn't say anything I didn't already know, we just have different ideas about how to fix what we think is broken. |

The system is setup to funnel all the money to the top not the bottom. The words "equal access" actually equate to communism and while that system itself is feasible it would corrupt as long as money was used. Honestly I would go to work everyday if I was taken care of and I didn't have to worry about money at all. We are taught to worship capitalism because those in power don't just enjoy looking down at us they need vindication as well. I am a fan of personal freedom over the will of the state as we should all make up what the state is, however I just don't delude myself into believing it will EVER happen. And I've learned to live and make myself happy seeing things the way I do. |

Guys that don't answer their phones have something to hide? Fact or fiction? Explain... The question itself is vague, sometimes people are busy or have dramma and getting in a fuss over it is a way of sending out the wrong signs really quick. I've been on both sides of that and if a woman doesn't anwser or ignores me I won't think much of it, but if I see a pattern to it I'll back off and look elsewhere. It's really the only thing to do. |
