We must analyze carefully what spawns these kinds of behaviors (If he is guilty) so that we can prevent more people like him from contributing to the large amount of violence that occurs in this world. I believe enlightenment is essential in moving humanity past this violent mindset that so many...

So I had to go to Charlotte because my parents were both out of town and I'm staying with relatives. Everyone is gone they have a great outdoor basketball hoop but every time I try to shoot some be or wasp happens to be near the backboard and charges. I've never been stung and have no future...

It's so hard to stay agnostic when people like this exist in the world. I'll respect their opinion but in my eyes it's a rather foolish one.

I was having a conversation with someone up here and they feel like you can't accept someones ideas but disagree with them. What do you think?

I've always thought of myself as being a strong person but now I'm starting to question that. I've been smoking for years and can't seem to slow down. I promised myself I wouldn't end up like my uncle (he died from lung cancer and a brain tumor) but I fear a similar fate if I continue. When he...

This may be the most irrational thing I've asked up here. But Descartes said, "I think therefore I am". How does this statement verify one's existence? How could one determine if their existence is real? This question just annoys me. Thoughts please.

This girl I'm trying to talk to thinks I'm overly sensitive (aka: A Nice guy). She told a mutual friend she likes guys who take control. She also said to a mutual friend that she is casually dating and isn't certain who she wants. She also said I need to step up and take charge and tell her how...

Simple thread, just one question. Is reality just a mixture of one's perceptions?

You really had me thinking that WWIII was coming quicker than expected.

Is the whole idea of natural rights flawed? Hypothetically if you gave every man, woman, and child natural rights there would be a wide variety of conflicts. Sort of like some people saying all men should be free, well if someone doesn't view someone of a different ethnic group as being human...

This site has successfully exposed several shady things about are government but some feel that exposing too much information will ultimately lead to negative outcomes. I love wikileaks it provides average US citizens with more intelligence of what there government is capable of. Plus it has...

I am a most unhappy man. I have unwittingly ruined my country. A great industrial nation is controlled by its system of credit. Our system of credit is concentrated. The growth of the nation, therefore, and all our activities are in the hands of a few men. We have come to be one of the worst...

Minato and Obito both posses jutsus considered Space Time Jutsus I can fully comprehend how it can manipulate space but how exactly does it manipulate time. Are they considered space time jutsus because they can teleport their matter almost if not instantaneously across large distances in a...
