    No. You see, i have this thing called a brain. I tend to use it quite often. I question EVERYTHING.

    I don't swallow what ever the school system says just because they teach it as the truth.

    Where would quantum physics be if physics was the truth? Where would string theory be if quantum physics was the truth? Go read godel, escher and bach, you might then understand the problem with science, it can never find truth. I didn't say it couldn't get us usuable equations and predictions hence the trip to the moon.

    Why do you have to bring in religion? Why does everybody seem to think that religion is the opposite of science? If anything, secular school and religion are exactly the same, brainwashing people with 'facts' and unfortunately not teaching them how to question and explore the world around them.

    I'm not supporting any position. I personally am not a christian or a jew. I'm just pointing out that the translations are incorrect, there is no rib mentionned.

    I know for some reason everybody has to turn everything personal and everything, but i can't be bothered. Again i'm just pointing out that you're incorrect.

    In fact, i find it all amusing. People don't seem to realize that ALL paths lead to enlightenment. That means truths in any path can be applied to any other path if the person is smart enough to open themselves to different ways of looking at the universe. Divisionistic people like yourself are one of the reasons it's taking us so damn long to learn anything.

    ah, so just take your word for it without proof?

    Humans were a lot less stupid when it came to nature when they had no way of ignoring it. We're so out of touch most people don't even know the path of the sun or the moon or that it actually changes!. Stars? What are those? What do you mean you can't smell a storm 30 minutes before it happens?

    We seem to think tech is our god send, and yet it's turned us into some of the stupidest animals on earth who couldn't survive in nature without it.

    Of course i'm speaking in generalities here.

    We have these things. They're called feet. When we happen to put one in front of the other continuosly we start walking. There's always somewhere to go.

    Actually, kabbalah could be set up as a science. You could literally study creation with real theories that are falsifiable. The beginning would be tough, as nobody has figured out how to combine thought with form, mainly cause nobody knows how the words are combined into form.

    It's because America is the seat of division in the world.

    It's kinda funny, cause most everybody dislikes the americans, and yet, they're bringing forth the fruits of gods labour.

    Know thyself is only possible when there are those different from yourself, and americans find the tiniest little things to seperate themselves from those around them.

    The big question, is whether americans can ever return to unity. If not, then america truly is hell.

    No. Anybody who understands the scientific model knows that it can NEVER FIND TRUTH. It only examines a small subset of reality (that which can be falsified) and deems the rest of no consequence.

    Unfortunately, you seem to be a product of modern 'schooling' systems.

    Noble? The greatest minds of all time have always believed in a creator (note: not the catholic church representation of god). "is god friendly?"

    umm, no. My body tells me what it craves, and so does my ego. Needless to say if i listen to my body i feel good. If i listen to my fabricated desires i feel like crap.

    Your body is constantly telling you what it needs. Whether you know how to listen to it, and interpret it correctly is an entirely different story.

    Most americans just don't know how to listen to their bodies. Something as beautiful and efficient as the human body would never demand mcdonalds. Immature immediate pleasure seeking egos of course only care about themselves so ignore both what the mind and body is saying.

    I'm not vegan, but there's stuff i'd like to add.

    Everybody needs to know about what they eat and how it affects their body. We're the dumbest animals on the planet because we have no clue how to feed ourselves. Evidenced by the fact that most of what we eat is dead, in some cases dead for weeks, months, or years!.

    I eat meat cause it tastes good and my body asks for it occassionally. I never could understand that stupid arguement that animals are living so we shouldn't eat them. What the hell do people think fruits and vegetables are?

    Life is life. Period. You need to ingest it to live.
