How do you know that God is speaking to you?

Robin Lamb @troyburns (1405) • New Zealand 14 Oct 15

Yash Srivastava Unless the existence of God and methods of communication with him (or her, or it) are established, which is highly unlikely, I would say that hearing voices and seeing things that are inaudible and invisible to people around you should result in one thing and...

Yash Srivastava On the flip side, I can also quote the following verses from the Quran, 4:89 "They wish you would disbelieve as they disbelieved so you would be alike. So do not take from among them allies until they emigrate for the cause of Allah . But if they turn away,...

DNA profiling may help to identify terrorists

vanny @vandana7 (100638) • India 20 Nov 15

I think so. Some processes that terrorist's brain does differently than ours and because of which the ratio of some chemicals that are formed in excess in their body needs to be studied. This is one of the reasons I am against...

Yash Srivastava First of all, the idea that there is any discernible difference between the brains or DNA of terrorists and the so called normal people cannot be taken at the face value until you cite some study in this subject. Secondly even if it is true, to stop crimes...

How Many Languages Can You Speak?

MARILYN @Marilynda1225 (83117) • United States 20 Nov 15

English is my first language and I don't have a second or third or fourth. It wasn't until recently that I wished I had taken the time to learn another language. I did learn Spanish while in high school but I wasn't fluent enough...

Yash Srivastava Hindi is my first language and I'm proficient in English as well. I've been learning French for some time now and I have become reasonably good at it. I'm from India so it's not a surprise that I know at least two languages. English is heavily emphasized over...

Yash Srivastava I am one of those very few people who have never watched a single Star Wars movie. It's such a huge pop culture icon that I'm almost ashamed to admit it. I've tried several times to begin watching it but I've never really gotten around to doing it. Maybe...

Isn't god something that we just need to "create"?

Chiara Sessaro @Kitariizback (21) • Italy 13 Nov 15

People get taught since they are children about these "gods" and if you say something to a kid over and over again until he grows up, he will believe that thing as an absolute truth. People, also, like to search something that...

Yash Srivastava While childhood teachings do bear an effect on a person's beliefs, it is not correct to say that anyone's religious beliefs (or lack of them) are only because they were drummed into his head as a kid. As an individual grows up, if he is exposed to ideas from...

KnehKnah @KnehKnah (3584) • Philippines 20 Nov 15

Then, for how long will you hold on to your hurt feelings? Can you forgive your beloved, or are you going to call it quits?

Yash Srivastava I think I would give my spouse a second chance, especially if it's her first instance. We will talk about the situation openly and try to make our relationship work. However, if she does it again, that would be a clear signal that she is not completely...
