pillusch Now, that sounds more like a roller-coaster ride than anything else. I sure hope for you to get your addiction under control, otherwise it'll control you. But I gues you know that, thanks for sharing.

pillusch I appreciate your opinion, Ramaditya, however, I do not concur. An emotion is always a reaction ('emotion' comes from the Latin word 'motere', meaning some kind of movement/reaction to what's going on in the world or in our life). Disappointment is the...

Let me start this entry with a curiosum. As far as I know, and I was born and raised in Germany, I am, in fact, a German, there is no exact equivalent to the English word “faith”, or indeed the Spanish word “fé” in the German...

pillusch With all respect, barehugs, you are wrong. There is clear historical evidence that the person Jesus Christ lived, and lived at the time and at the place where the gospels say. The first written evidence of Alexander the Great is from 500 years after his...
