Accept it or not, it's still amazing
Basically. Any kind of code used to interpret something is made by us, so it's just basically us telling ourselves that we are all going to die in some kind of armageddon like scenario. It's almost like propoganda, 'believe the message of doom and follow me to be saved' etc.

DOOM 2
DOOM 2 Do you guys like it or have you ever played it? Pretty oldschool, I know, but I've been working through the missions lately and rekon it's awesome. Theres only one problem I have with it; I downloaded the game and can't seem to get the sound to work properly. Maybee my soundcard isn't compatible.. dunno.

Is stereotyping wrong?
Yeah. Somehow 'white trash' and 'chauvanist (spelling) pig' don't hit as hard as w****, s***, n***** etc. (you're gonna have to use your imagination, as all of the semi-censored words were blocked by the censor, which boldly reinforces my point). Racism isn't right against any race, in any form.

Are you interested in/fascinated by any other religions?
I find Buddhism interesting. Possibly the most peaceful religion out there, don't you think?

random facts u know...
False. An albatross can sleep while it flies. You mean like half asleep? or totally. A crane can sleep with one eye open and have awareness of surroundings. I just got it off this a couple of days ago. http://www.metacafe.com/watch/367990/animal_facts/ TBH I don't know if the facts really are facts though. :anxious: After watching it, I had a question about one of the facts too. I thought less than 1% of animals ever to inhabit earth are still alive today. I might be wrong though... You could be totally right i.e. I wouldn't be surprised. Makes me wonder why people are so worried about certain species becoming extinct, although there are human interventions that make this happen, it is almost natural in some cases.

I don't think they even really sleep, they just slow thier metabolism and heart rate right down. (I think).

Yeah, it's quite sick really. So I suppose PETA still loves animals, just medium rare. :lol:

Is stereotyping wrong?
Obviously stereotypes are formed for a reason, that a no-brainer. But just because your part of a group of people, dosen't mean you should be judged like all of them; everyone is different and unique.

50% of all Australians accounts for half the population. :lol: I saw this on the late show, but edited it a bit to suit me.

Cruelty to Animals
I didn't find it funny in the slightest. Cruelty to animals is sick and sadistic in my opinion.

Darfur, and what can be done.
It's a tough situation, no doubt and i'm pretty sure Australia has been accepting lots of Sudanese migrants of late. Don't take my word for it though. Africa is a really screwed up place in terms of civil wars, corruption, tryants and the like and unfortunately I don't see that changing any time soon.

The Uprising Of the Patriotic Dance
That's pretty crazy, 2 tickets sold out of 2000. People at my school probably wouldn't have cared as much. And as was said above, if you punish one, you have to punish all of them, which is rediculous. The teachers are just annoyed that people can stand up for themselves and rally together.

Is Racist Prejudism Always Unjust?
Keep it clean please. Anyway, so here̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢s my argument. Obviously there̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢s the simple black-on-white racism which has been in our heritage for thousands of years. But that̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢s not what I am talking about. I̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢m talking about, given the recent events, the Muslim race hate which has developed over the last few years, consequent of the actions of the hate filled dictators which ruled the countries, preaching the hate into its majorities. The acts of Al-Qaeda; 7/7 bombings, 9/11 bombings, and the recent foiled attempts of other underground bombing plots have brought hate to much of the Muslim community. Children, well 15-16 year olds, who read/watch news(papers) begin, mostly, to develop an un-easy comfort around certain people. Whether they are Muslim, or stereotypically look like one (they could just have a beard and be a victim). From this, many youths take it upon themselves to ̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ãâ¹Ãâinsult̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢ or ̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ãâ¹Ãâneglect̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢ who they̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢ve dictated into being a ̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ãâ¹Ãâterrorist̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢. (harsh, but being a 17 year old, I have seen this). However, the question is, is what they̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢re doing actually wrong? One could argue it̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢s the Muslim minority actions which have lead to these prejudice actions of other faiths. However, another could argue we shouldn̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢t be influenced by the actions on the minorities and be racist the majority. What do you think? Feel free to express any racist or prejudice situations or examples. It is wrong because you shouldn't blindly follow the propoganda the media sells you. Stereotypes aren't always true, including the quite damaging one that all terrorists are muslim.

Changing The World
Amen to that. Though I agree you should probably use some of your power and money to do something good in the world, like Oprah has done on countless occasions. Ditto. They deserve what they get, and can use it as they wish but if I were rich, I would feel guilty if I don't at least try to help someone out. It's almost a duty of rich people in my eyes. A lot of good philanthropists are rich, but then again, alot are poor, because the poor know what it's like.

Back to the beginning
If I were a religios man, I'd agree with you. It's far better than 'we were just created out of nothing.' Evolution is incredibly interesting whether you see it as intelligent design or as a natural, 'random' process.

Is the waterline perfectly level?
It's generally a very level surface, that of liquid water (due to gravity, obviously), as long as it is undisturbed. You don't need to over think this too much.
