eternalOptimist There can be no restriction to freedom as it goes against the very definition of the word 'free'. If we start giving exceptions they start growing and affect the very notion of it's root.

eternalOptimist I personally think that reality TV is pretty lame. The situation wouldn't have been so bad if only they knew when to stop. Now a days even the news channels are all most involved in entertainment and rumors instead of news. It is a really sad state for...

eternalOptimist Early morning is obviously the best time. But if you have an early working schedule like me, then even evening would be a good time. Best time slots would be 1.5-2 hours before or after dinner.

eternalOptimist On the contrary I think the worst thing that a person can say is say nothing, and the worst thing that a person can do is do nothing. It is very easy to do nothing but difficult to do the right thing. People think doing nothing is being neutral and it keeps...

eternalOptimist Ghosts are not proved scientifically or logically, hence there is no point in believing in them. Supernatural things are just things which could not be explained at that point of time, want proof? look around you, things which are obvious and clear to you...

eternalOptimist I remember reading this in news, I was very upset when I read it initially. But later realized that it was for the benefit of all. But I admit the method is definitely highly innovative.

eternalOptimist This is tough, try making a flying pass of a comment on things and see how your friend reacts and then decide on things. And don't worry the child will probably turn out fine, the surroundings only influence children and not absolutely guide them.

eternalOptimist That is cruel. I wouldn't want anything such to happen in a million years. Execution for crime is different than killing to see him suffer. I am not supporting Saddam but I don't want to see anybody die on TV, it will change everything.

eternalOptimist fire and electricity were DISCOVERIES and not inventions. They did exist long before they were found, just like gravity, wheel etc. And I do agree that they are the most important discoveries. :)
