I think being exposed to a more variable environment only makes you a more well-rounded individual. I wish everyone thought like that.

Reply to What if we were all the same? in Philosophy JoeUser Forums

I see where you're coming from and I don't neccessarily disagree with you. I was really thinking more along the lines of what would the outcome be in this scenario, would it improve unity or would it create divide. Looks are definitely a factor on our immediate judgement but I was trying to go a little farther than just saying looks aren't important but what would it do as far as how we view differences in our culture and ethnicity would some of thos

Reply to What if we were all the same? in Philosophy JoeUser Forums

yes we are getting closer to the day that genetic counseling (the manipulation of the human genome) will be as achievable as invitro fertilization. Currently it is shrouded in some controversy, conservatives believe we are playing God. Genetic couseling theoretically would provide a world free of congenital disease. At the same is using our technology to improve our genetics tampering with nature or is it just another form of evolution? There are so

What if we were all the same? in Philosophy JoeUser Forums

Humanity in itself is a unique as it is similar. We all go through pretty much the same stages in life. We grow up and want to establish ourselves and leave an imprint on this world. When it comes to our behavior we can all mostly be categorized into groups. Physically you are part of an ethnic or racial class. Economically you are poor, middle class, or rich. U

Reply to postcards from the hedge in Personal Relationships JoeUser Forums

There you go again writing an article that reminds me of that book I recommended you read (Herman Hesse "Demian"). I know you would like it. Some of those same thougths flash through my mind before quickly becoming part of my awareness, I think as much as I can about everything that graces my life because only through analyzing everything can we gain something from whatever we encounter. Your question is, is ignorance bliss? Well it all de

Good article. The definition of good will is something that is very hard to pin down. I hope there is a time when all free will is directly correlated with good will.

Reply to Why we don't do Leviticus in Religion JoeUser Forums

Shulamite I have a question and since you seemed to be well-versed in the Bible i thought I would ask. I know drugs like marijuana and cocaine are sins but where in the Bible does it say it. This is to settle an argument and I would greatly appreciate if you could help me out...

Reply to Volvo Designs a in Current Events JoeUser Forums

Volvo is just trying to appeal to a demographic that they think is big enough to make them money. Unfortunately stereotypes do exist and I think just as many women who think this is demeaning will find it appealing. You never know what will catch on as a trend...

Reply to Becoming Vague in Art JoeUser Forums

Cheer up maybe you should try talking to some of your friends about this and hanging around them for a while or find someone whom you really trust and talk to them about it or in other words vent... This is just one small portion of your life. Try finding something new that you can do to fill your extra time with maybe start a membership at a gym, get a part time job, or try reading about this stage of yo

Reply to Reinstate the Draft? in Misc JoeUser Forums

At a press conference yesterday, a reporter keep asking Scott McCellan if the President was thinking about reinstating the draft. He had some vague answer about it not being discussed at present. As usual, they always give vague answers. It's amazing that t

Reinstate the Draft? in Misc JoeUser Forums

I recently read an article that asked a shocking question. Would I be for a draft or against a draft for the Iraq war. I would prefer not being drafted, but what would every other young American under 26 think? I know that there hasn't been a draft since Vietnam, how could there considering that tragedy. But what if in the year 2005 the U.S. government decides the

Reply to What does "working with allies" buy us, Mr. Kerry? in Politics JoeUser Forums

We can't withdraw and we need to stabilize a country that is showing increasing hostility and insurgents. The president gives us a June 30 deadline for an interim gov't. This doesn't seem realistic taking into consideration all the events that are unfolding. Al-Qaida seems to be gaining more and more support from the Muslim world and we still haven't captured Bin

It is always good to see someone content with themselves. I think that change is inevitable with every experience that fills our lives we learn and adapt. We grow and attain more wisdom. We all have stages that we go through everyone has pretty much the same stages through life how you react to them is up to you...

Reply to Sad in Misc JoeUser Forums

Thanks for relating Trinitie, it's more of a quiet frustration that I feel. I know that if I lose focus I might not be where I want to be 40 years from now. I guess the real question is when I am 65 will I look back and say it was worth it? I guess I just want to reap what I sow...Hopefully it will be a full crop...

Sad in Misc JoeUser Forums

Maybe I am crazy but I am not one to usually get depressed and/or sad. I am not impartial to other emotions considering sometimes I am outraged, content, ecstatic, etc etc, but I rarely am down and or in a state of sorrow. There is one thing that gets me down that I am encouraged to share. As I woke up this morning at the inhumane time of 6:00 am to come into work,
