What one bit of wisdom would you like to teach humanity?
Suppose everyone would listen...
That the Socratic understanding of knowledge, that it begins with understanding our own ignorance, is the beginning of human awareness and that it is representative of our relationship with each other and to the cosmos. For we exist as middle beings, we know too much to be skeptics of all knowledge, yet we also know too little to be dogmatic about the knowledge we have. Time and time again the human race has attempted to deny this fact. Religion, when tied in with political authority, has repeated moved with frantic dogmatism to suppress, maim, and kill those who denied its central positions. The horror of the dogmatic regimes of the th century also showed us again how much humans crave blind certainty. In our own time, the rise of nihilism, a form of radical skepticism, denies our middle status by not seeing that radical skepticism is but the other side of the coin from dogmatic horror. Every period of total uncertainty always ends in a blind embrace of some form of dogmatism. The echoes of the Weimar Republic haunt the Western World right now so let us hope it ends better for us then it did for them.

What never ceases to amaze you?
life itself. . sometimes i am just amazed at how my life can turn sideways and sometimes encounters bumpy roads and slippery slopes. . i guess, its because of all the people that contributes to the development of my growth, and my self, who i always think that can amaze me, for sometimes i know my self but then i dont quite know me. . and it just amazes me how i still can live but others die of suffering, i live to live while others live to die, and i love to live, while others just want to die. . . isnt it amazing how you can change your lifes direction just by rthe flick of your hand? or how we manage to survive, day by day, while others unfortunately dont. i dont know. sometimes my amazement borders on cynicsm and skepticsm, even doubt. that all this is not happening and its all just an imagination. but then, i wake up and pinch myself, and its all real. thats also one of the things that amazes me. im real. this is real.

What nationality do I look to you?
If you just randomly saw me on the street what would you guess my nationality was?
If I saw you walking down the street, I would think you were Caucasian but now that I looked at you carefully on your photos you look very Hispanic brSpanish, Mexican Cuban, Brazilian, Argentinean, Peruvian, etc....brMixed with Caucasian
What nationality do I look?
I am the one on the right. My hair is naturally blonde with a few highlights, and those are my natural eyes. Based on my features, what nationalityheritage would you say I look?
You look Polish or Swedish or Russian.
What nationality do I look like?
A picture is here
Youve got the same cheeks and hair as all of the women in my family, and were Irish and Pennsylvania Dutch. This is a cool question...if you dont mind, I might copy it with my own pic in a day or so!
What Nationality Are You?
My nationality is American and nothing else.brbrHowever, my ancestry is a number of things.brbrYour nationality is only one thing unless you have dual citizenship. brbrI had ancestors at the first permanent English settlement in the U.S., the Jamestown colony. I also had ancestors that some people state crossed an ice bridge from East Asia thousands of years ago and were here to meet the Vikings, the English, the Spanish, the French and even St. Brendan. However, a person who was naturalized in a federal courthouse somewhere in the U.S. this past week, their nationality is just as American as mine is.brbrIn the colonial South, they had English, Scots, Scotch Irish, Germans called Dutch in colonial days, and French Huguenots. My maternal grandmother who was born in was a blend of all those people but her nationality was nothing but American. She married my grandfather in , who was a mixture of Pole, Polish Jew, Native American, German with a little English but his nationality was nothing but American.brbrMy fathers people were Irish, orange and green, but the nationality of his people has been nothing but American for many generations.brbrNationality is not the same thing as the country your ancestors came from. That was your ancestors nationality until they became a naturallized American citizen.
What name for my story do you like better?
Its about a girl and a boy. I need names.
Girl namesbrNone of them really scream both calm and sensible and loves adventure and seem to fall in one group calm and sensible or the other loves adventure. I can see Bridgette, Riley or Charlotte as adventure loving girl. I can see Lucy, Gracie and Olivia as very sensible, down to earth girl. The one I feel that more closely fits both groups is Charlotte, though Riley is my personal favorite.brbrBoy namesbrThe ones that seem more like trouble maker names are Alec and Paul. The others seem more suitable for more down to earth type of guys.

What misconceptions about life did you have as a child?
I used to think there was one of every species kind of joined together in spirit, so if you crushed an ant and its spirit was joined to your best friend your best mate and a heap of other animals would die.

What matters to you most in your life?
Just whatever you feel matters most to you, that is what I am asking...
What matters the most in life without any doubt is that we are alive and this we know when we are conscious about it. Only then we will be able to appreciate being alive and enjoy ourselves, other things we will see in secondary places. Not only the importance of all these occupations and worries will change its place, but also we will see how it is connected with ourselves, our past, the influences we have received, the experiences we gained and also the chocks and the disappointments. We will see things in a different light, more objective and not depending so much on situations and conditions, more in connection with the whole. We will less worry and will enjoy life. We will be open to what comes to us, seeing it as a gift or as a challenge that will help us to grow. Then we can relate to what shows up and respond in a relaxed way, not so much conditioned by our wishes and needs. The rigidity of our concepts will fade away... brAnd all this because we are conscious that we are alive. So it becomes clear as the sunlight, that this is what matters the most.brBeiYin

What makes you happy?
There are many things that make me happy, and some that make me sad, and what makes me the happiest is to know that I am and can be loved in all the ways that love are possible in this spectrum known as life. Also to know that I can give as much as I recieve in life, and in many ways some times more. Is this philosophical enough for you?

I dont understand most poetry. Am I not a deep person?
Of course not. But if you want to understand poetry, you have to work for it. It takes a long time, because you have to learn a certain type of language. If you dont want to learn, you can find other means of being a quotdeep personquot. Not understanding poetry has nothing to do with depth, really.
I dont understand life??
Can someone tell me why we are here on this earth? It doesnt make any sense! Were these beings in the middle of the universe, which for all we know is infinite....And how the heck did the universe come into being? If you really think about it...it is so confusing! Is this all an illusion?
Man is on earth for a purpose. The Bible, Bhagavad Gita, Koran, Torah, Avesta....they all say it. Even Kant and Hegel said so to.brbrThe reason it seems so unreal, so inconceivable is because of the fact that when we are born, we are literally thrown into existence, therefore allowing the present to be superfluous rather than fixed. And as Sartre and other stated, Mans purpose is to put meaning into his life in an indifferent world. And when people say that it is all an illusion and the only way out is by dictating that we are to become One with the universe, all that implies is the fact that if you cant beat and understand the universe, the hostile world, join it. I believe Secularism and JudeaoChristianIslamic counter that extensively and is right on that regard.
I dont know how to start reading better books?
I really like reading books that arent bad but really arent helping me learn anything. My mom keeps wanting me to start reading these good books that are classics likea tale of cities. and books like that. I know that when school starts again that I will have to start reading better books but I know that I wont suddenly be able to go from reading th grade level books to th grade level books. Some one please help me figure out how to get myself motivated to start reading better books.
I know exactly what you mean. brClassics are an acquired taste. It takes some time to start enjoying them, but trust me, once you start theres no turning back.brAlthough, quotTale of Two Citiesquot is an amazing novel, Id suggest you read a classic, with a theme that appeals to you. Whether thats romantic books youre after, or something a bit more mysterious, is your choice. brAsk your mom for some advice. She obviously knows what shes talking about. brGood luck and happy reading!
I dont have a concept of a supernatural entity. How certain are you of the existence of God?

Youre right. I dont know and I dont feel obligated to know.
I dont feel like I have a meaningful life...?
Right now Im a year old college student. My major is International EconomicsBusiness, and Im not really that happy with it. Yeah, I am semiinterested in it, but its not what I want I want to do with my life. The problem is, I dont really know what I do want to do. I just dont know that Im not doing what I want to be doing. Part of me actually wants to drop out of college, but I only have a year left, so its not an option. I just dont know what I want to do.
You sound like you have your head on straight and everybody elses confusion is your problem. Since you have endured many years high school and college to get to where you are now, year shouldnt be that difficult, especially since you sound like an eminently practical person. When you have a degree in Bird Calls, it doesnt matter if you get a job making bird calls, YOU HAVE A DEGREE. That puts you economically in a better place to choose ANY career. You may have to bend your interests slightly to make enough money to pay off your loans or whatever, but you DONT have to take a job in your field if it isnt what you want to do. A semester or two extra and you can TEACH. Or you can work for a magazine using your knowledge of International business to WRITE about international business. Or you can travel and use your knowledge in the traditional way but in an interesting PLACE.brbrI think you have the world by the scruffy parts, and that may still have nothing to do with feeling meaning in your life. Meaning often comes from activity, not from introspection. Try some new things like volunteering or take some elective course you would never have dreamed of taking before.brbrMy gut says you will be fine, but only you can know for sure.brbrGood Luck.brbrPS Asexuality is a lot more common than people think. One can have a great life asexually. Sex is overrated anyway, and as one writer says quotA sex drive is like being handcuffed to a lunatic.quot
I dont believe in god..............?
but i want to see how many people do and do not and why. if you dont dive a getailed reason if you do, the same. thanx I just want to see.
good, it will save you alot of grief.bri am not an atheist, i just think that religion should not be apart of culture and especially not apart of government. free religion is fine hope i go toheavenquot and quoti hope i dont go to hellquot. well i dont live in fear, and i am proud of it. you can still be a great person without having a religion. and all you people who say the big bang must be quotmagicquot, you have no idea and frankly are very closeminded. oh, and props to ninjanna.
Idk y its happeningi know its kinda long but PLZ help me i need HELP..ok so i saw this playles miserables
it was a high skool production and my parents made me go because their friends daughter who i had never met was in it and i ended up really liking it and after the play we couldnt stay that long so we congradulated herbtw she was amazing she has a GREAT voice and i thought it was sooo awesome and left and ever since then ive been really into the music in the play but yea thats not the point....so ever since then ive been getting REALLY UPSET and gettin SAD and even crying and i have no idea why?I know it seems weird that all of this is happening just because i saw a play but its the only thing i can think of and btw i also really want to be able to perform on stage like that but i have massive stage fright and i really wish i had someone i can trust to teach me how to perform and get over my stage fright but idk anyone who can do thatexcept this person and i only minute...plzzz helpp me idk whats happening to me.
Ok, so I really dont think that it was the play that made you all sad and depressed. Sometimes I get that feeling too! I dont know why either. I just all of a sudden get really sad and start crying. The only think that I think can cure it is going to the gym. Gymnastics I have practice basically every other day, and on the days that I dont sometimes, I just wish I could be there so bad that I start crying. No one understands. They are all like quotWhats wrongquot and I just say that I want to go to the gym. They just think that I am crazy. Also, I have told many people that I want to train every day for hours a day, but they dont take me seriously! I get really mad about it! Maybe we both have some type of depression problem. Is there anything that you are attached to and want to do or see ? Maybe that is it! Good Luck!
Ideas Please!?
I want to write a book!
In an already saturated market if you have no ideas forget it
Ideas on love.If we loved our children would we send them to war?
Definitely no. A responsible parent human is helping the mind of his children to understand what is a divisive mentality. War is the worlds presentation of selfishness greed. The leaders believed and have faith that war is necessary to gain peace, this is absolute insanity.

OK, Beth. Im assuming you mean quottamponquot in ther commercial sense having to do with quotfeminine productsquot. As far as I know, there is no reason why you cant. If you are a virgin, it will keep you intact. Dont ever use vaseline...use KY lubricant if that is the problem.brOtherwise, the word quottamponquot simply means quotplugquot...like the stopper on a drain, and those are very easy to use.

I believe that God controls every human action. What do you think?
Well, we simply cant have free will. We do all of the things that we do strictly because we want to. You cant logically decide a want, and if you want to do something, then youll inevitably do it. God makes people want to do things. God puts wants and thoughts into your mind. Our courses in life are predetermined. God has predetermined the whole world.
people swallow any lie to explain the origin of things such as our emotions and the board of ethics. since people created the god as an omnipotent all knowing being, they use god as a concrete ground to any origin. the concept of evil is based on the magnitude of pain our actions would inflict on each other and the amount of that effect our guilt could handle. guilt that is produced in out minds just like any other emotion. emotion that is used as pillars that support the concept of good and evil.

I am writing a book.....?
and I needed help. I am thinking about writing a book about this guy that gets engaged with this girl and it turns out that she has cancer, and the day before the wedding she passes away. A few years later he gets married to someone else and they have a daughter, but she gets cancer when she gets older and he just wants to breakdown because he doesnt want to do through this sadness again.....sound good? I am only but I LOVE to write
Wow, I feel bad for that guy. gt.lt brbrIt sounds like a pretty good plot, and you have most of the details ironed out, so theres really not much for us to help you with. Good luck with writing itI hope the daughter doesnt pass away too!brbrsends good luckbrbrPS With your note added on, heres another idea. Maybe the daughter meets a boy who she falls in love with, and the situation reminds the dad of his own trials years earlier, and he sees himself in the boy. They could get engaged, but instead of the daughter dying on the wedding day, she lives and conquers cancer, and shows her dad that the disease doesnt always cause tragedy. Its totally sappy romance, but it could be fun to write

I am very homely and cant get a boyfriend, what should I do?
My main concern is my hair. Whatever I do jells, hairdos, dyes it looks like a nest of snakes. My face is not good either it petrifies the men who look at it.

On the other hand, I am a very kind person, nice and considerate, I try to protect people from evil and do a lot of work for abuse victims. What should I do?

I am thinking about getting a tattoo...one that means something...I want it to have something to do with both of my daughters...I was thinking of maybe their footprints or something from when they were born...with their initials and birthdate with it, or their name and birthdate...I would like some ideas as to what you would have done if you were me...lol.
ummmm, ok. This is what Im thinking about right now. Find a nice picture of each of your daughters. Get their baby book with the footprints. ok now, have the tattoo artist make a portrait of their faces inside the shape of their footprint. But do not outline the footprint. So when people look at the tattoo quickly they see footprints, but when they really look at it, they see that its the picture of your daughters inside their own baby footprints. And just above daughter s footprintpicture you have her name, and below it is her date of birth. And the same thing for daughter . I dont know if you understand what Im seeing in my mind, lol, but thats what I think would be really nice and meaningful.brgood luck
I am thinking about ending my life, should i do it?
i am twenty years old and considering suicide. ive been thinking about it for about a month now. my life is going nowhere, i was going to college, but it fell through. i live seven miles from the nearest town, and no way to get a job or get to work if i had a job. my life is a complete mess everywhere i turn. answers please
first you need to change your attitude. We all face challenges, just remember, your life is what you make it and thoughts of suicide or depression in general needs to be treated as a form of mental illness. No, youre not crazy, but some people need that extra counseling or even meds. My suggestion would be to get some help, only you can take that initiative.....trust me.
I am the writer of harry potter?
JK stole it from me. how can I sue her?
JKR stole from lots of people and most of her lifestory is more original fiction than her books. She was never poor. I know someone who worked with her when she was a teacher at Leith Academy at the same time as she wrote her first book, supposedly in the Elephant cafe, which was in fact ownwed by her brotherinlaw,.brIt would be lovely if someone could expose her as the liar and thief she is because her books are actually rubbish and purely the product of enormous publicity.brIf you have good incontrovertible proof take it to any solicitor or, failing that, to the Peoples advice Bureau.

I am terrified about the quotend of the worldquot in ? What do I do to calm myself?
I know a lot of these types of questions have been posted, but I really am so scared.
IFand that is a biiiiiiiiggggggg IFthe world comes to an end in the next years, there is absolutely nothing we, as simple humans, can do to stop it. If you believe in God, rely on Him and His wisdom. I have always said that God brought the earth in with a bang and Hell take us out the same way. br According to rumor, the world was going to end in the year because a quotcomputer virus so unbelievably huge was going to totally stop the Earth from running.quot People called it the YK bug . But, January , arrived safely, and there was NO such computer virus. It was all a hoax.br Your fear is based on the ancient calendar, that for some reason, ended on Dec. , . The calendar was constructed by the Mayan Indians around AD. They used many different calendars and viewed time as a quotmeshing of spiritual cyclesquot. While the calendars had practical uses, such as social, agricultural, commercial and administrative tasks, there was a very heavy religious element. Each day had a patron spirit, signifying that each day had specific use. br Their Tzolkin calendar, for instance, is the name for their day calendar, and it means quotcount of daysquot. The Tzolkin calendar combines twenty day names with the thirteen numbers of the quottrecena cyclequot to produce unique days. Each successive day is numbered from up to and then starting again at .The repetition of these interlocking and day cycles therefore takes days to complete that is, for every possible combination of numbernamed day to occur once. Another of their calendars, the Haab, approximated the solar year of days. The Mayans combined both the Tzolkin and the Haab to form the quotCalendar Roundquot, a cycle lasting Haabs around years, or the approximate length of a generation. The Haab Calendar is a nonrepeating base solar calendar, and is sometimes known as the Long Count calendar.br The Haab and the Tzolkin calendars identified and named the days, but NOT the years. The combination of a Haab date and a Tzolkin date was enough to identify a specific date to most peoples satisfaction, as such a combination did not occur again for another years, above general life expectancy.br The Long Count calendar identifies a date by counting the number of days from August , BCE in the Gregorian calendar or September , in the Julian calendar. Rather than using a base scheme, like Western numbering, the Long Count days were tallied in a base scheme. Thus .... is equal to one group of amp ond group of , and .... groups of is equal to . The Long Count is not consistently base, however, since the second digit rolls over to zero when it reaches . Thus .... does not represent days, but rather only days.br According to the quotPopol Vuhquot, a book of Mayan folk legends, we are living in the fourth world. It describes the first three creations that the gods failed in making and the creation of the successful fourth world where men were placed. In the Maya Long Count, the previous creation ended at the start of a th baktun, on a long count of ..... Another .... will occur on December , , followed by the START of the fourteenth baktun, ...., on December , .br One Baktun Katun, and is written out as ..... It equals , days or solar years.br Despite the publicity generated by the date, Sandra Noble, executive director of the Foundation for the Advancement of Mesoamerican Studies, Inc., says quotFor the ancient Maya, it was a huge celebration to make it to the end of a whole cycle. To render December , , as a doomsday or moment of cosmic shifting is a complete fabrication and a chance for a lot of people to cash in.quotbr quotThere WILL be another cycle,quot says E. Wyllys Andrews V, director of the Tulane University Middle American Research Institute MARI. quotWe know the Maya thought there was one before this, and that implies they were comfortable with the idea of another one after this.quotbr quotEarthquot was shown globally on TV on June .a VERY informative program. Global warming, overpopulation, and mutated diseases will cause the end of the world, NOT a calendar date.
I am so sick of hearing about Twilight. Anyone else?
I see, hear about it everywhere. There is always someone on the train reading it. Its on Facebook and ppl talk about it there. Its everywhere.
Thank you! I have never been personally acquainted with this book, but once I started coming onto the YA books and authors section I noticed every other question was about Twilight. Now Im being assaulted by cinema ads on the sides of buses, and I cant get away from it. It sounds incredibly cheesy and cliche, and I want it to go away brbrI remember hearing recently that if anything is worth reading, its worth reading slowly. It makes me feel better for taking ages to finish a book, but it also might indicate the depth of this one. Not all reading has to be heavy I liked Harry Potter but thats really not brain wracking material. And wasnt is HP before Twilight? Makes me wonder what crap is next...brbrAnd not being funny, but for everyone up there who thinks this question is so stupid, then why are you answering it? Isnt your response a little hypocritical?
I am soooooooo nervous?!?!?!?!?
I have a very important audition for orchestra tonight and im so nervous i think im going to flunk it. ive kind of been dreading this night for a while and know that its finally here, i feel like im going to pass out. any suggestions to ease my mind??? and please, only serious and helpful answers!!!!
Pray for peace of mind and stillness within. Go in confident, think of all you know you do well. I wish u the best!
I am pretending i never read breaking dawn
i think i will consider eclipse as my ending. i think breaking dawn was all wrong. i wish i would have never bought it. who is with me?
Me too! Ugh...it was horrible. Its like Stephenie tried so hard to please the fans that the story was just crap. Edward cant even have children! And what kind of name is Renesmee?? And why did Jacob imprint on that!?
I am on a desert island and have sent you a message in a bottle. What does it say?
I WAS HERE! in a very deep and meaningful existential sense, obviously
I am obsessed with twilight am i weird?
i love twilight and edward is so gourgous are u obsessed ? Am i a retard i cant get edward out of my mind !!
Yes, to become that obsessed with something is not right. Do you hump the book? Or a printout of Edward Cullen? quotOH EDWURD, U SO SAXY!brBy the way, its PRETEND, which means the characters DONT EXIST. Thats just weird.. It seems likes youre in love with a pretend person..
I am lost and have never known who I am or my purpose,how can I find myself and mature into adulthood?
Get behind a movement or an orginazation that you believe in. Make helping people your purpose. You can never go wrong with that. I try and help and get interested with the aclu, DNC, and barack obama, and I want to start helping with habitat for humanity. Even if you volenteer a homeless shelter you will feel better about yourself and have meaning, and learn a bunch of things about yourself and the world in the process. This also helps to put on your resume which helps you mature into adulthood. It also helps you to realize that no matter how low your life feels, that there are people who love to live even though they have much less and are worse off than you.

I am having feelings of emptyness and being lost...?
I am having feelings of emptyness and being lost I have been this way for some time. I keep finding myself looking to the sky for answers and getting no reply. Sometimes I feel sick lonely and out of place. what am i looking for?
Isnt it funny how the easiest questions to ask often are the hardest to answer? When you examine human phycology, you realize a few things the first and most striking of these is that we are all very barebones. What we seek in life often falls within similiar paths. If youll allow me to go deeper, Ill try both to answer your question and be brief about it.brbrA A sense of purpose. This is where I think youre at based off of what youve expressed. Its completely naturalespecially when something ugly happens death of a friend or family member, pain and suffering, ect.to feel the need to know that the agony was not in vain. It becomes important for an individual to know that their struggles actually amount to something.brbrB A sense of mastery in a given field. Self esteem builds in very powerful ways as we learn more and more about things that interest us. This is seen in the old saying quotSucess begets sucess.quot Consider that failing at an endevour often leads to personal feelings of inadequacy... these feelings are natural, yet inappropriate, since our mistakes are our most powerful teacherswhich is something every champion of any given field must learn to embrace. The more sucess you encounter at a given effort, the better you feel both about the activity and yourself. Might I suggest setting shortterm goals be realistic! involving fields you find fascinating NOT things youre only quotsortakindaquot into, or things that you do to impress someone elsethis has to be YOUR project? Take up a fitness routine. Or learn more about a certain animal. Endevour to become an authority on something! Your self esteem will skyrocket, and youll be providing yourself with a sense of purpose.brbrC A sense of belonging. Consider the relationships that you have with the people in your life. Why are your friends your friends? Are you the type that tries to get along with someone simply because others consider that person as quotin,quot or quotcool?quot Or do you genuinely enjoy the company of those around you? Youll never feel that you belong amoung those whose company you merely tolerate. How is your relationship to family members, and what can be done to improve things? One terrific thing about working to improve your relationships with others is that youll quickly notice that many of them will try to improve their relationships with you. And why wouldnt they? They, themselves, want to belong to something as well.brbrNone of this is easy work Nothing worth doing ever is. The worst mistake you can make is to try to tackle all of it at once. I wont word it right I dont have it to reference, but theres an old Chinese proverb thatloosely translatedstates quotThe longest journey begins with a single step.quot Chin up, and good luck! This life is only what you make of it, so make it count.
