How do I leave my family without damaging our relationship?

Akaimiko @Akaimiko (15) • United States 24 Sep 12

First of all, let me stress this: I love my family. As crazy as things have gotten in the past, I love my mom and my dad, my twin sister, and my two younger sisters. We're all adults. The youngest girl is 20 years old. We are also...

Why Can't The Americans Remove And Banned The Reprehensible Movie?

Artemeis @artemeis (4194) • China 21 Sep 12

I know some of you will be arguing about the freedom of speech and expression here but I will still need to say that the removal and ban would have save the world or at least the unnecessary deaths of Chris Stevens and fellow...

Akaimiko I agree with you. There must be consequences for the actions of the responsible party/parties. Without consequences, freedom of speech and expression turns into anarchy when it's not exercised responsibly. This guy clearly meant to cause trouble, but not this...

Mindless Religion?

Artemeis @artemeis (4194) • China 21 Sep 12

During these past few days, I am sure all of you would have read how the protests against the mindless movie "The Innocence of Islam" has escalated all over the world. It has reached a stage whereby American food chains like...

Akaimiko I'm a Muslim, so here's my feedback: From what I gather, the guy who made this movie clearly intended to cause discord, which is despicable. First he claims to be an Isreali Jew, then somehow it's revealed that he's Coptic. Suspicious that he decided to go...

Respect

bestboy19 @bestboy19 (5478) • United States 19 Sep 12

Does Islam show the same respect for other religions and their god(s) or prophet(s) as they expect others to show to their prophet Muhammad?

Akaimiko We are taught to respect others for their beliefs, because they are their own. We believe Adam, Moses, Abraham, Jesus, and thousands of other individuals (peace be upon them all) were prophets, aka messengers of God, aka humans chosen for the specific purpose...

Ever heard of "Howl's Moving Castle"?

SinfulRose @SinfulRose (3527) • Davao, Philippines 19 Sep 12

It already an old Japanese animation movie that came to the top boards years ago. The original story came from a light novel, actually, written by a British author. The first time I ever heard of this was from Ghibli studios's set...

Akaimiko I didn't know there was a book. As always, I have found the books are better than the movies anyway, but seeing as how I didn't read the book yet, I still loved the movie and was able to follow it pretty well.

From Student Debt to Independence as a Graduate Student

fencer07 @fencer07 (98) 12 Sep 12

I only graduated from college a few months ago, and I am already understanding the "difficult economy" that is so often talked about in reference to job seeking. Let's say that I am less-than-satisfied with my ability to get a...

Akaimiko Are these two part-time jobs equivalent to a full time job in terms of hours (40 per week)? Are you still looking for a full time position as you are working these jobs ( because persistence is key when it comes to job searching)? You should definitely...

What is the right thing to do?

favouredmost @favouredmost (256) • Kenya 15 Sep 12

Yesterday when I was in the bus going home, I was seated at the back with four other people. The conductor came to collect the fare and when he got to the lady seated next to me, he got distracted by another passenger asking for...

Akaimiko It seems pretty unanimous that the answer is to ignore it. If you weren't directly affected by it, leave it alone. Everybody could use a little stroke of luck these days, even if it's just getting out of paying the bus fare for the day. Be happy for the lady...

Akaimiko Have you considered taking melatonin or two diphenhydramine capsules? Granted, they would help when you're trying to get a regular night's sleep, but they are a good option. Also, if you have a smartphone you can download a brainwaves app that you can listen...

Akaimiko I always wanted to believe in soulmates, and I even wrote down this list of things I wanted in a husband back when i was about 12 years old. For several years around college, I became such a bitter cynic because I was met with disappointment. Mind you, by...

No Easy Day For Anyone

Artemeis @artemeis (4194) • China 5 Sep 12

I could not believe what I am hearing and seeing with regards to the recent controversial book about the assassination account of the notorious Osama Bin Laden. On one side, the Pentagon is saying that the book is compromising...

Akaimiko You know what, I just saw that you had the cover of the book on your post, so nevermind about what it's called. What do you think of the "Act of Valor" movie? Was that controversial too?

10 Commandments of the Bible has been changed?

chentunacao @chentunacao (309) • Philippines 5 Sep 12

Would you agree that the 10 Commandments in the Bible that was written by God's own finger will be replaced by the 10 commandments that has been revised by man? Jesus said in John 10:35 "the Scripture cannot be broken" One...

Akaimiko Just because God's scriptures cannot be broken doesn't mean they won't be. As soon as Jesus left this earth, the Bible was in trouble of being corrupted. Man is self-serving by nature, so eventually people in places of "religious authority" (as if God Himself...

As a daughter

locakai @locakai (166) • United States 21 Aug 12

Akaimiko Dear, maybe as a youngster it was expected of you, but now that you are a functioning adult, it is now something you willingly do out of courtesy. You are being considerate of your loved ones' feelings by giving them the security of knowing your whereabouts...
