achilles2010 I think tags serve only one purpose. If you use words from your discussion as tags then those who are searching for a particular topic are sure to find it. Without tag it would simply not appear in searches.

achilles2010 Loneliness is not always bad. It might spur you into finding something to live for. I love to be alone sometimes, all by myself. In those moments I try to discover myself, and talk to myself. We mostly talk to everyone else in this world but seldom to...

achilles2010 I do not think we should visit the doctor if there is nothing wrong with us. Some people visit doctor because they have some sort of a imaginary sickness. The sickness might turn real. Some doctors might see you as their prospective customer and he might fill...

achilles2010 All those who believe in Bible consider it as the 'Word of God'. All think that it contains the words, which came from none other, but God. I do not interpret it in that context. I do not think that the word here means 'a brief statement from God.' I view...
