ra1787 Well this is a tricky question, since a lot of the things i would say are the greatest inventions actually require other things in order to work. i.e. electricity needs a generator, the generator needs a steam turbine, the steam engine needs fire :) So i...

Solipsism

sterybiusz @sterybiusz (50) • Poland 16 Jan 12

Let's try to use our imagination now. You can experience something new just by thinking about solipsism. What it is? It's a view that whole world is just effect of our imagination - not true, at least not as we think of it. It...

ra1787 I have been thinking about this view for sometime, and all i can tell is that there is no way to disprove it. And no way to prove it, but afterall as i have read somewhere even if all the rest of the universe were just a projection of our own thoughts, it...

if you want to die tomorrow

cowboyofhell @cowboyofhell (3063) • Philippines 18 May 11

If you want to die tomorrow how will you convince yourself that it's not yet your time? What will make you think suicide is not necessary? Maybe, what is the first thing that you'll do after realizing that it's pointless to die...

ra1787 Well if you feel like that, one sure things is that no matter how bad things are we can always find a speck of happiness in even the simplest things. It could be a particularly beautiful landscape, or a smile of a friend, or even something great that could...

Is heavy metal the heart and soul of today's music?

quadj130 @quadj130 (25) • United States 18 May 11

I believe anger and aggressiveness are the new heart and souls of today's music. It may sound harsh, but this is coming from someone who didn't grow up listening to heavy music. In fact, I still listen to many 70's bands like...

ra1787 Definig metal as aggressive and violent is at least reductive, it can be surely true for some subgenres, but not for the metal genre as a whole. Progressive metal or symphonic metal usually don't have all that aggressiveness you are referencing. I am more...

dragon54u @dragon54u (31634) • United States 17 May 11

What a waste of money!! I bought some on sale and tried them in my kitchen lighting and went through 6 of them in one month, they burned out so quickly. This was before I read all the stuff you have to go through to dispose of...

Non Christians and the Christian Life

bestboy19 @bestboy19 (5478) • United States 14 May 11

If a non believer believes it’s important that a Christian live a Christian life, would that mean it’s also important for the non believer to live a Christian life since they believe it to be a higher standard of life?

ra1787 I pretty much agree with the person that stated that it is about people hating hypocrites. Everybody agrees that a person who states certain beliefs should act according to them. It is not a matter of higher standard or whatever else it is just a matter of...

debrakcarey @debrakcarey (19887) • United States 14 May 11

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mind%E2%80%93body_problem We have a physical organ called BRAIN, We speak of it's workings as MIND. So, which is it truly. Just a brain that opperates on chemicals induced by stimuli or a mind that...

ra1787 This is a truly fascinating issue. I think that generations of philosophers an neurobiologists have tried to explain this specific issue without much success. The only consideration i feel to make on this is just that even if the basic physical processes of...

ra1787 I believe that thinking too much can be a problem, sometimes overthinking things can inhibit action and make us lose opportunity. Don't thinking enough is maybe an even bigger problem, as with all things in life we got to do them in the right amount.

lllwww479 @lllwww479 (37) • China 23 Mar 11

Some time I meet an Issue in a talk, the issue is the feedom to be wrong.How do you think about it?I feel we should tolerate the wrong,and give sb chance. what about you?Tell me.

1 response

ra1787 That is really an interesting question, i think that the real point here is whether something like right and wrong actually exist. What is wrong, how can we be so sure to be right and tell the others that they are wrong? There are only few things that are...

Too much of everything is not good

atprudente6 @atprudente6 (673) • Philippines 23 Mar 11

Many said that too much of everything is not good. Too much money may cause trouble to the owner. Too much work causes health problems. Too much playing causes a dull person. With this in mind, would you also consider too much...

ra1787 Of course, too much faith makes people blind to other peoples belief and leads to extremism and fanatism. Makes people too sure of things and leads inevitably to war towards other people who are too sure of different things.

Are manners overrated?

sashakiddo @sashakiddo (1102) • United States 23 Mar 11

I have been taught my manners as a child, but I think it's immature when people scoff at someone else's lack of manners. Not everyone learns the same things, and people from different cultures learn different manners. Normally...

ra1787 I believe that manners is mostly a conventional issue. For some people behaving in a certain way is considered good manners but there is no absolute reference for good manners, so there is no point in taking offense if people don't behave in the so called...

Gas is ridiculously HIGH

LaLa Leo @mrscallands22 (2851) • United States 28 Feb 11

I was riding today and decided to stop and get some gas... when I noticed that there is no place locally where gas is under $3. Then I see on the news that they are raising the gas prices $0.33 which is high to people like me who...

ra1787 In Italy gas (benzine) is 1.52 €/litre or 5,75 €/gallon or 7,92 US$/gallon, and life goes pretty much as usual... i think you will manage to do it with a price that is less than a third of what we pay here!
