'Don't give up :)
Hello world! Haha! I don't know what to say here, but hello and nice to meet all you throngs of people! I'm a little intimidated by posting things that so many people can read, but I can't stand...
I love wikipedia: A version of the cosmological argument could be stated as follows: Every finite and contingent being has a cause. A causal loop cannot exist. A causal chain cannot be...
A theory is neither blind faith nor scientifically proven, but worth thinking about if it holds any possibility of truth. Interesting about Pascal's wager. First I have heard of that.
I used to be afraid to label myself as a J because I was afraid that J types were controlling and I am definitely not! My control is mainly turned inward in perfectionism. I remember as a 1st grader...
Oh yes. I recently went for like a week of missing breakfast and lunch before I realized what I was doing. lol. I'm always so inside my head that I forget to do simple things. I filter out what...
Putting off you know what. I've got a break coming up in a couple weeks. What will I do with the time?
Ha! That's why I'm always late: because I try to time it so close because I hate wasting time too. But life never works that way and something always pops up at the last min.
Oh thank you so much! You just described me :) I guess the point is not how punctual or organized one is, but how much they are bothered by not doing such. I have had many frantic moments and...
Trying.... to.... focus.... on.... homework.... :dry: wish I had a study partner to break up the monotony.
Taking a short break from the chaos. Sunday shouldn't be like this....Ok, I'll be back later :wink:
Finally settling down to do Ethics homework. It's quite interesting. It's an overcast day and unusually warm. I would rather be outside right now going for a walk :rolleyes:
Quotes from Einstein: I'm not an atheist and I don't think I can call myself a pantheist. We are in the position of a little child entering a huge library filled with books in many languages....
Everything physical points toward an origin, or something that exists on an entirely different level. How else do you explain something like emergence or multiple dimensions in physics? And...
Hard to peel myself away from this forum but I'm going to try to do my homework :sad: I love you guys!!!!!
Sorry if I read you wrong. It seemed real negative, but sound's like I misunderstood.
Physics is just awesome! When problems get me down I look at the stars think about how amazing and beautiful the universe is.
In my opinion: The bible is not a scientific book. And it is flawed because it was written by man who is flawed. It is man's imperfect way of describing a perfect God. If there is some kind of...
Are you serious? To agree to disagree means to respect the fact that people have their own opinions. I'm not going to hell because I respect that each person is autonomous. I think God would agree....
Let us all just join hands and agree to disagree....that would be unexpected :tongue:
I'm too much of an introvert for that :blushed:
What a beautiful picture! Do you live near the desert?
Trying to wind down from hours of homework so I can sleep... Thanks for keeping me company :) Visiting once and a while breaks up the solitude. Good morning all!
Thanks for being gentle :wink:. This thread is a little scary, so much tension here...
You have done some impressive studying on the subject. I have some personal beliefs but I keep them that way unless I am asked about it and they are always evolving. I am just a very curious person...
Good night my friends. You are keeping me away from my homework :tongue:
Yep. That's how I see it.
My point is that rational people ponder things beyond explanation and this is a healthy exercise. True, you can't label something as rational without proof, but you can give a reasonable argument for...
Sorry I'm new to this. What is annoying you and how can I fix it?
I think it's much more intersting to talk about it :)
[QUOTE=Veritechno;3166913] True, but scientifically speaking, all discovery begins with a theory and that is what keeps us advancing. Whether the theories are right or wrong, they gradually move...
I see religion as a very personal issue. It is also a very powerful influence and can be misused! It is undeniable that many people are curious about their existence, and what metaphysical properties...
Wow this is intense. Intuition is not rational but still it is filled with knowledge that is sometimes beyond explanation. Just because something cannot be explained does not mean that it doesn't...
I try to make decisions this way, by rating the different elements and I always get messed up because I know it's impossible to accurately score something so ambiguous.
I'm having trouble determining if I'm a J or a P. I can't live without closure, but I'm also not an organized person and it takes me forever to make a decision, but I can't move on until I do. I do...
bummer! :crying:
Feeling poetic before I start my homework: Driving rain, bitter cold, blowing leaves of color. This is when I find my center every year, when I feel at home with myself. Education in the fall,...
lol. Yeah that's already a daily activity. In fact, just lifting groceries, children and laundry has toned up my biceps. Tonight I helped my daughter pull out a loose tooth. Ewww. Now...
Thanks everyone for the advice! :happy: I'm really starting to enjoy the math homework (which is a delightful surprise) so who knows where that will take me. I guess I will stay in IT for now and...
I love theoretical disciplines. Philosophy interests me but it seems too ambiguous. I have thought about social science, or psychology. I just switched my major from psychology because it dealt with...
Wouldn't mind it so much if I had a tutor :/ Junior high is a great age to work with. I have done some associate work with that age group and just loved it.
I do enjoy studying online. It's perfect for a single mom. I am struggling a bit with the math but I eventually figure it out myself. What do you teach?
There are so many ways I would love to get out and exercise, but I never have time away from my sweet darling children :) So for now I will work out at home.
Warming up a cup of water to make instant coffee. Thought I put it in for 3 min. Started reading these, then realized 9 min later, wow the microwave has been on for a long time! I actually set it...
My main concern has been the fact that I have two children to support and no I am not in a relationship so I'm just working at this alone. When I started out in college I was mainly driven by my...
I have thought about technical writing. I just love to learn new things and I think technical writers could dabble in a lot of different fields as they put together their material. I'm torn between...
So do you regret the computer science? I would love to major in English but worry about getting work. Perhaps I should just do what I love.
A friend is giving me a tread mill which is awesome! Cancelled my gym membership because I never made it there anyway. When my children are both at school I find myself doing homework :( I heard the...
Thanks for the information! I can see how IT could easily be combined with engineering. I'm just taking my first math class since high school and that was like 19 years ago! It's been rough but...
I feel your pain. I love art and on my mother's side they are all into art. I would have a lot of emotional support from my family if I decided to purse it, but it just scares me, being a single...'
