  • You may be a ___. However, the likelyhood occurrence of you ___ in the ___ are slim. What am I talking about?

    For the first blank, think opposite Michael Phelps and what qualities that person may possess.

    When a hurricane blows in, you don't necessarily go out in it, you stay indoors. Why is that, what are the reasons that would make you want to stay indoors?

    And the last blank. Over the years, many ships have traversed the seas and the oceans, and many have lost their lives in this process. Many went missing on the waves. What could you call some of the facts there, if you put them together?

    I should mention that there is a real fact there when I fill in the blanks.

  • I want to read the Bible, can you help me please?

    I've never read the Bible before. However, now I do want to know. I've heard that there are different versions of the Bible, or different Bibles, though I'm not really sure what I'm saying.

    Can you recommend to me where to start? I'm looking to find a free online version so I can dig into to it straight away.

  • Noisy neighbours, anyone else familiar with this experience?

    Do you ever feel like there is too much more noise in your day unequal to what you are creating, that some other's are creating more than their share? I'm talking about loud mouths and the heavy handed. A dog's barking. Cars.

    What to do but live in the countryside, but then, I don't want to be in the middle of nowhere. So, I want to have neighbours, I just want them to stop creating lots of noise, only if I came from the country after a long time would I enjoy the racket.

    This is it. I want my cake and eat it. The trouble of living in a modern day city.

    It's no big deal any of this at the moment, world hunger is more important, l guess it's one of those things I will have to live through till I find somewhere better to live. I have been thought and reminded again to do simple stuff like use the door handle so I don't make a loud unnecessary noise when closing it.

    What's your experience of noisy neighbours?

  • Today, I receivied a scam call which I did not discover till after, but went through a thing called ShowMyPc?

    Indian accent guy calls up saying Microsoft Ireland Sandymount. Long story short, first thing I did was run www.getresolved.webs.com. After that, I downloaded ShowMyPc3160, at which point I pressed on ShowMyPc, called out a 12 digit number to him and from there, he was able to control the mouse on my computer. He showed me a bunch of files, then a load of virus warnings. After a minute of this, I was informed of a €12.50 charge. From here, I was asked to enter my name, address, b.o.d., bank details, credit card number. I said, one minute please. I left him on hold and rang up Microsoft Ireland where a girl with an Irish accent told me that they have a centre in Sandyford and that they don't ring out calls like the one I was getting. I picked up the phone again to him and asked, will you get off my computer please. He got off my computer and then hung up immediately. I rang Microsoft Ireland technical support straight after, however, I spent too long trying to get through so I just left it. Is this Indian accent guy claiming to be Steve Clark from a non existent Microsoft Ireland Sandymount able to use my computer now at his will? I turned off my computer after speaking with him, then turned it back on. I tried to change my password but windows said that it wasn't working. I turned the computer off again and back on but now I can't get into my computer. I tried my old one password and the new one I was trying, but to no avail.

  • Is the fair light pigmentation of the skin being out bred these days so much so that not too long it will be as rare as rain in the desert?

    Basically, are white people's numbers falling everyday so that in a hundred years or so most of the humans on the planet will have dark skin, dark eyes, and dark hair? Seen as there is no country left now where only white people inhabit.

  • How would you know what is right & what is left if what is right is left & what is left is right?

    You would call all the rights left, and whatever is left is right. What interpretation do you get from this for the words left & right have many meanings? I just thought of this thought there, watching a vsauce video on youtube yesterday about the English language probably triggered this.

  • What would be your top 10 films out of this list?

    http://www.filmsite.org/300films.html - filmsite 300 greatest films by decade

    Please leave out well known films like Terminator 2, Raging Bull, Apocalypse Now, Alien, Rocky & The Godfather. Instead, if you could pick out your favourite from the list that you think are not as well known.

    BQ: can you count how many of the movies from the list that you've seen? I've seen all the 90's decade films, a lot of the 80's & 70's ones, some of the 60's and I can't say I recognize much before that, only a few like Rear Window, The Quiet Man, Citizen Kane and Duck Soup and a few more.

  • Which 'ism' are you, what one do you follow? Have you seen Genis Carreras philographics before, it may help?

    http://geniscarreras.com/philographics/ Just click on the picture to see it enlarged, it will pop up at the top of the page and the rest will be below in their original form.

    I think this is pretty good work. I like the pictures and the colours that go with each particular message, and the easiness of it all navigating through the different beliefs. I have to say, when I read some I am more than one of them. I don't believe in just one of those ism's, even though the some of the ones I chose seem to contradict one another. I asked this first on religion & spirituality today and only got one reply back which was:

    "Yahwehism is the only ism all of mankind has to follow.

    Source(s):

    The God Yahweh our Intelligent Designer."

    I might get more from philosophy.

    What do you think of this piece of work by Carreras and which ism's grab your interest the most?

  • Do you still believe in Darwin's Theory of Evolution, or have you found a mind of your own yet?

    Atheism is like a religion. Their experts, these scientists at the top of the pile tell everyone else tons of crap like a be all end all authority figure and just about everyone in college studying science memorizes what they say and regurgitate it thinking that they are so great and high minded.

    Scientists get very arrogant with others who are not in their beliefs, saying we have proof for what we believe in, what do you have nothing but faith? Yet, there are still things that are being told as scientific fact but have not been proven. e.g. Darwin's Theory of Evolution. There is no observable proof. We have not seen one kind of species change to another, alls we see is one kind of fish or bird change to another kind of fish or bird, no fishies turning into birdies for example. Evolutionists say you need thousands of millions of years for observation, which we don't have in our lifetime, so there is no observable evidence for us, it is just a trust or faith in what the so called experts say.

    A lot of people do this and don't realize that they are repeating what some else has said, not what they have worked out for themselves to be true. I want to say this to wake some people up who think science is so great. A huge chunk of science is a business today, fact. Otherwise for example, school children wouldn't be being drugged with pills in public schools for doing next to nothing, pills created by scientists for some corporations greed, not staying fully awake in class can get you pilled up, this is happening in some American schools now. Also, science has its bad just like the religions Atheists dislike so much. Who invented the atomic bomb which killed loads of people, scientists.

    It's not that I dislike science, why would I dislike a neutral subject? It's the people who are very annoying. It's the arrogance that is irritating. It's the arguments against religion and nothing against their own arguments that is annoying.

  • Is loneliness an issue we don't address sufficiently in today's society?

    We can all experience the idea of separation and confusion from the life-giving infinite creation, and even though our physical life is one big illusion/dream, loneliness can still feel very real. It is real in a sense because it feels that way.

    Apparently, there are lots of people these days and the number has been growing over the last few decades, a lot of people who feel lonely, socially excluded and feel like they have no one to talk with who would understand or even care about their situation. It can seem like to the lonely person that everybody else in the world is crazy about each other. One of the worst parts is pretending that everything in your life is rosy to others so they won't abandon you, ridicule you, completely misinterpret you, step back from you when you say it etc. Thanks to the tv, media and movies for making it seem like this issue doesn't exist at all for in these things there are hardly ever any chronically lonely people.

    Are there more people than we think or are told that are experiencing prolonged loneliness?
