It seems as if people choose their stances on issues based on their ideology or political party rather than choosing their ideology based on stances. I have some conservative and some liberal values and don't swear my undying allegiance to any one party or ideology. Few examples of my beliefs:

Support pro-life (C)

Against death penalty (L)

Support gun control (L)

Support large military (C)

Anybody else feel this way or are you strictly liberal or conservative?

I did a sleep experiment over the course of one month. For the first 15 days, I slept at 2:30 AM to 7:00 AM (4.5 hours). While it was hard at the beginning, I got used to it and I felt just fine each morning. The next 15 days, I slept from 10:30 PM to 7:00 AM (8.5 hours). And I felt horrible every morning. I don't get it. I used to think more sleep was better. It wasn't like half-conscious sleep or anything. I had at least 7 hours of actual sleep. Somebody explain.

Please also comment why you picked your choice next to your country’s name. Pardon me if I didn't pick your country as I couldn't think of any other interesting pairs without repeating a country. Please post your own list if you'd like.

I noticed after I moved in to Canada and visited Europe, most people refer to the country as America, the States or US. In USA, I've noticed most people refer to it as the United States. Any reason for this?

This is apparently a movement to synchronize Christianity and Islam by blurring out the differences and sharing the similarities. However there may be politically good intentions toward peace, as a Christian I think Chrislam is incompatible with Christianity. You believe Jesus is God or you believe He is not. You can't be both. Chrislamists believe that Jesus is not God but a mere prophet which all Christians must deny no matter what other similarity may be. What do you think of this. Any Muslim viewpoint.

Tell me what denomination/sect/church you belong in? I'm a Protestant but I don't belong to any particular church.

[(1/3^3)^8]^4]/[(10^3(2^8))^2] = ?

Please explain and show all steps.

I am a Christian and I view Jews as brethren of the Christian faith. I was wondering if there are Christians out there who are mad at Jews for killing Jesus. Technically, it was the Romans who killed Jesus not Jews. Plus, Jews are called "God's chosen people". Most Christians have a favor view of Jews and Judaism.

I personally support a one state solution where Jews and Arabs should be given full citizenship and equal rights under the law. Israel should not be a Jewish no Arab state but simply a democratic nation. The reason I am opposed to the more popular two state solution is that it wouldn't end the fighting between Israelis and Palestinians and both sides would be furious as ever to wipe out the other state. Plus, 1948 borders would not work today and new borders must be created which would result in disagreement and more conflict. But I may be wrong so what do you think is the best solution for the Israel-Palestine war?

With Civil War out in a couple months, there have been speculations that Steve Rogers might die in the end of the film. If Steve Rogers does die (hopefully not), who would make a better Cap? Sam Wilson aka Falcon or Bucky Barnes aka Winter Soldier. I know in the comics both have taken the shield at some point. I wanted to know how it would work in the movies.

NATO serves as a military alliance between much of the Western world. Now from my understanding, only north Atlantic countries are allowed to join NATO. It really doesn't make sense to me. What does geography have to do with anything. There are other developed countries that could join NATO not in the North Atlantic (Australia, Brazil, Israel, Japan, South Korea). I have limited knowledge on the topic so pardon me if I'm wrong in any sense.

Can the Arab countries defeat Israel without the US backing the Jewish state. Similar setting as 1948 but today. Who would win? I mean the Arabs want to wipe out Israel off the map and the Israelis defend Israel. No outside involvement (I.e Russia, US, Iran, etc.)

Being a Captain America film and not an Avengers film, it makes sense to say Civil War portrays Captain America as the main protagonist. Does this make Iron Man the bad guy? I don't want Iron Man to be the bad guy. He's my favorite character from the MCU. Besisdes, I highly dislike the Winter Soldier (character). He is cool but I just don't like him. And so far it seems Iron Man is more of a victim (couldn't think of a better word) than an aggressor (death of War Machine?) And when Tony said "So was I" in the first trailer, I was almost in tears. What do you think?

Whenever I use sites like YA and YouTube, on my phone or tablet there is always a mobile site. Why do sites have this? I usually switch to Desktop Mode as it has more features. Plus, doesn't it cost more for the sites to have a mobile version?

In Transformers, Unicron is the great evil, the source of power, the lord of chaos, the destroyer of worlds. Who is the Marvel equivalent to Unicron. I heard Galactus is but I think he is not that powerful. Please list some powers, background and history and conflicts of the character.

Is it legit?

I found many lists regarding how fast a country grows as a percent of population. I couldn't find the list in which we compare the absolute population growth of a country. I know India is first then China.

India is a pro-Western and largest democratic nation in the world. It has deep economic ties with the US and EU. Russia is a anti-Western country and an ally of China, the biggest enemy of India in the region (besides Pakistan). I do not know the history between the two countries but I think the past shouldn't affect present interrsts. I don't really understand how India is benefiting from a relationship with Russia.

I have been to many theatrical films and they always released one day before their announced release date. What is the reason for this? Or am I tripping?
