Farside604 I miss being religious the same way I miss my very early childhood. Around the age of 5-6 I had everything figured out, except not really I only thought I did. When reality sank in and I understood the world didn't conform to my ideological preconceptions I...

What long running big TV show have you never watched?

burrito88 @burrito88 (2774) • United States 22 Feb 11

We all have favorite TV shows and there are some we hate. Then there might be some we just never watch for some reason. For example, I never saw Seinfeld until it was in re-runs. No reason, just never did although now I do watch...

Farside604 I was a little young for Seinfeld I was only about 6 when it ended but even now that I watch the re runs it isn't all that funny to me. A hit show I never watch but always mean to is Madmen. It gets so much praise from critics and always rakes in a bunch of...

A person wearing a complete body costume who actually has only one eye, one leg, one arm, one hand is told by the wise and elder to study hard and finish college to have a good life someday. What do you think? Should the person do...

Farside604 I feel that the main question here is whether or not someone should pursue education despite great adversity (I really don't know what you're trying to get at with the whole costume and one limb thing). I think that everyone has atleast some adversity we have...

margeryann @margeryann (1845) • United States 31 Jan 11

Helping my son with homework is real hard. He is in special ed and it is hard each day that he has it. I don't want to do it for him so he can learn how to do it himself. He doesn't know how to hardly do anything himself when it...

to much homework make us stupid

ericunion @ericunion (15) • Indonesia 1 Feb 11

yeah, it waste time to me, we will work hard if more and more homework give to us. no time to read the book and we cannot learn something that more usefull

Farside604 You may feel homework is useless but it helps move the class along the lesson plan aswell as build character. Besides you need to start somewhere before you can learn the real interesting stuff.

Do you think there is such a thing as too old to study?

puccagirl @puccagirl (7294) • Israel 31 Jan 11

A lot of people I know think that only young people should study for new careers etc. at university etc. But I think that is completely wrong! I mean, it is completely possible to start over and start learning something new at an...

Farside604 Alright so alot of ideas being thrown around here so I'd like to first address man2sting comments. In your first comment you say that God must be free of absurdity, do you mean absurdity in the same way Kierkagard or Camus did? I don't really understand what...

Farside604 Well first off when you say "the proper teachings preached at mainstream churches" what makes you assume that these are in fact proper teachings. What is the criteria upon which you appraise teachings, if it is in fact simply by what is the most popular this...

Farside604 I am one million percent with you. I remeber the pre bc raids with the, maybe excessive, 40 man raids but damn were they fun. With 40 people in vent there was always some good conversation going around during trash. As a result of these huge raids there were...

Farside604 Well first of all I think the way you formulated your question points toward going toward church as a necessary condition for praying or worshipping. But going foward a little bit praying and worshipping are only means to the ends of reaffirming ones faith in...

MommaOfAllTrades @MommaOfAllTrades (969) • Canada 29 Jul 10

So this new study revealed that 54% of Canadians think we should ban people from wearing a burka. I had to take a minute to really think about this. This is Canada - where we don't ban anything foreign - we actually welcome...

Farside604 First off I think its important to understand why goverments are looking to ban the burqa. In France, where similar legislation has already gone through, its mostly for the reason your dad was getting at, that is, we need ID's to go with the person/face. I...

Farside604 I think the only way to understand god is without logic. There haven't been any logical arguements for God which is why I guess people so often rely on faith; belief without logic/reason.

Farside604 There is or hasn't ever been any real evidence for god. The problem your describing is the problem of evil first put forth by Epicurius and hasn't been given a satisfactory answer.
