Which word in the English language would you consider the most ambiguous?
Which word in the English language conjures up the greatest diversity of mental images?
Ambiguous of course. No, just kidding. Thats a good question. I think love. That is the one word that no one seems to be able to attatch a definite definition to. I find that everyone has their own meaning for it.

Go for it Ive got small grandchildren to entertain this week!
whichever direction is the opposite of gravity. If there is no gravity, there is no quotupquot but it becomes relative to whatever object you choose. In my case, currently, the floor would be quotupquot

Which was your favourite book when you was a child?
And if you can remember please tell me what you liked about it!
The World of Pooh by A. A. Milne. My Dad used to read it to us, and he did all the different voices ... whenever I read it now I always remember how he did the voices and I feel a little sad, because he died in and most of his grandchildren never knew him.

Which urge is stronger mans thirst for knowledge, or his hunger for pleasure?
...can either truly be satisfied?
Since hunger for pleasure at least in my case can be sated for at least a little while, but my thirst for knowledge is seemingly always on that path of enlightenment, Id have to say knowledge.brbrFurther, Id give up some pleasure and even endure some pain to gain knowledge, but I wouldnt give up knowledge for pleasure... I even gain knowledge when acquiring pleasure at times.brbrDeeper yet for me, I gain pleasure from knowledge...brbrFor this man, knowledge is far and away the stronger urge.brbrPeace

Which twilight book had the most of Jacob Black in it?
Can someone give me information on all the twighlight books he is in please
New Moon, as most of the book is about Bella and Jacob being together and how their strong relationship takes place. There is quite a lot about him in Eclipse but Breaking Dawn has a whole section dedicated to him. But, New Moon still has the most of Jacob Black.brbrPersonally, I think that Jacob is just there to make life harder.

Which Twighlight book do I need to buy?
The new film Twighlight is out in the cinema, but I want to read te book before I watch the film. However, when I have searched for the book to buy online, it says alot about Twighlight being a series. Which book do I need to buy to read the story of the film?
I think I get what you may be trying to say.brFrom what I hear there are two versions to the first Twilight book. There is one based on the film and the one written by Stephanie Meyer. To tell the difference the one based on the movie is has a picture of the cast on it. Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson etc. The one written by Stephanie has two hand holding an apple.brbrI recommened the one with the two hand holding the apple. It makes no sence getting on based on the movie if you are going to see it.brbrThe books are in this orderbrTwilightThis is the one with the hands holding the applebrNew MoonIt has a picture of a red and white flower on itbrEclipseIt looks alot like a ripped scarf on the frontbrBreaking DawnIt has a king piece from a chess set
Which the biggest thing that I myself dont know and you also dont know ?
The meaning of life....
Which stands best for you faith in reason or faith in religion?
Thanks for sharing your thoughts. Have a great day!
It seems to me that quotfaithquot in religion leads only to a dead end.brbrIt is faith in reason and more specifically, faith in the the peer reviewed and tested breakthroughs of the few, that is our only path to knowledge and the expansion of the human experience.brbrWe are, after all, but another of earths animals albeit the one with the good fortune to have ended up on the intellectual summit of the evolutionary process of the expansion of what must have begin as an active ganglion eventually evolving into what we call the cerebral hemisphere.
Which species are better humans or vampires?

Which series is better Twilight or Harry Potter?
Which Series Is Better Harry Potter, Twilight or The Hunger Games?
Okay, so which series do you like best
Harry Potter gt Hunger Games brbrIm sorry, WHY IS TWILIGHT even being COMPARED to the two?! Why?! Dude, saying that the sun is purple makes more sense than that.
Which series is better Harry Potter or Twilight saga?
In your opinion, which series did you enjoy more between Harry Potter series or the Twilight saga.
I preferred Harry Potter because it had such depth, plot and history to it. You read the th book and find things that relate to things you read from the first book and it just tangles all together to form this amazing story. The characters also grew with you, and I liked that. You watch them go through these developments to become these people. They have their ups and downs and their flaws and you watch them learn from it. brbrTwilight was simple and sexist, but it did have its moments that drew you in. Edward was a little too perfect, and Bella was a little too needy for my liking. There wasnt as much character development.brHarry Potter was also unique, whereas Twilight shadows the same theme as several other books i.e. Laurell K. Hamiltons series quotAnita Blakequot.brbrAnother series I read was called quotSweepquot. In a way, its a lot like Twilight, simple and not as complex as Harry Potter but it still had several events that make you keep reading. Its about a girl whos raised as a Catholic and struggles with her identity as she falls for a boy who introduces her to Wiccan type of religionmagic sort of sense. Has the whole love, romance, teenage problems, etc.
Which series is better Harry Potter or Twilight books?
Ok, hold on this might take a minute. I love both Harry Potter and Twilight but would have to say, Harry Potter. I love JKRs style of writing, its so detailed and will keep you on the edge of your seat. The books have a well thought out plot, the characters are very likeable. Well, most of them. JKR had the end of the series written before she had a publisher! Like I said before, I love the way she details her books.brbrBut Twilight on the otherhand... I like as a story not as a book. I found the characters likeable, but not having the mhpf the HP characters do. Anyone could come up with a girl that moves into her dads house and call her Bella. I like the plot of the books, but its not my favorite. I almost liked the movies more. The books arent very detailed, even though the books seem large. The text is just bigger. More people may be reading Twilight at the current moment, but most people because its the new trend. And they want to see if its worth all the fandom. But everyone will read Harry Potter sooner or later, at their own pace. Which says how great it really is, and how much people love it.

Which senior portrait should I choose for the yearbook? Pics inside?
Im having such a hard time lol
the second picture.brbryour smile is exactly the same in each one which is something that can make or break a picture but your eyes have that connection with the camera. your hair looks better too. it looks a little fuller and shinier. and, it looks more natural for it to be over your right shoulder because of the way your shoulders are angled in this photo. the first one looks like you pulled your hair over your left shoulder, where in the second one it looks like its just naturally falling that way.

Which picture should I enter in the county fair?
Hi. I am going to be entering some photography in the county fair of my cat.
Ok, you are getting a lot of very poor answers here, sorry folks. Just looking at a cute cat is not good photography critique. Both these photos have very real problems, and you are going to be really disappointed if there are some knowledgeable judges at the county fair. brbrThe first photo is WAY WAY overexposed. There is no detail in the cats fur. It is totally blown out. Unfortunately, blown out highlights like that cannot be recovered.brbrSo that leaves the second photo. It is actually not a bad shot, but there is also a problem with it. You made the mistake that is the glaring sign of an amateur that does not understand exposure. The scene is UNDEREXPOSED. The snow, and cat, are BLUE. Do you know why? It is because you are letting the camera auto expose. Any in camera meter tries to bring a scene to a middle tone level, know as grey. What this does is underexpose bright scenes such as snow. You have to know to add about two stops of exposure in snow conditions in order to have the proper white of the snow.brbrThe second photo can likely be helped a lot in Photoshop with a simple increase of the midtone slider in the LEVELS adjustments. This would take the blue out and increase the brightness. Also, a reduction of the blue channel in the Hue Saturation adjustment would help.brbrSo my answer is neither photo is good as they are now. The first is a total loss due to the blown highlights, and the second would only be usable with the proper levels adjustments in editing.brbrsteve

Is EGO a FRIEND or a FOE?
Ego, for me, is one of those instruments that is similar to an article of clothing in my wardrobe, I take it out when I need it, and put it back when it has served me to obtain the task that I needed to achieve for the day. Dont blind sight Ego with Pride, while they closely run neck neck in a race, they can easily be identified when called on to identify the winner. brEver hear the trumpets of a girl who I will call quotDesireequot ... She is Loud, Boisterous, Self Centered, and is so Appearance Fixated that she cannot leave her house, unless she displays that she looks like a million bucks That is Pride!brEgo is a survival tool, that when used correctly can be your friend for the moment he is called upon. Take for instance, I am at a meeting legislating for the Rights and Obligations of my Disabled Son. The opposing party is there representing the bests interests of their company and Insurance Agency. Yet, I know what I want, I stepped in the door with this Confident Air, and I am not going to Back down until I dictate that he will recieve the rights he is entitled due to court proceedings and Lawsuits filed in accordance with Capitol Hill, and the Supreme Court on Behalf of Individuals with Disabilities and Giftedness. Therefore, I know I am going to win, that the desired outcome I wanted will and shall be finalized. brNow, if I had an Ego that became prideful, instead of Speaking Rationally, I would demand certain aspects, and would appear unprofessional, stricken to emotions, and become so upset that I would not be able to talk with Council Rationally, and No doubt would lose my arguement.brThe same goes for persons with Low SelfEsteem, where Egos that were once present have been dampered, battered, and of course splattered. Individuals, who had a fighting chance of being confident, were scrutinized, persecuted, that many became individuals with Low Egos, on Long Term Psychiatric Medications because of initial influences, and these people who cause them Psychological Harm in Preventing them From Functioning from their Fullest Ability, Become glued to Meds and Social Security, then their Society who has been the FOE, complains they are feeding off of the system, and will not seek Employment.brEgo has never been an Enemy to those who can Handle it, Like handling a Snake. The FOE, in my opinion seems to be the Society with the EGO that they havent learned how to handle. Ego is a friend, one must know how to play it at all times. Thanks for your Question!
Is EDWARD CULLEN hot or not?
hottest, ever.brever.brdazzling eyes, white skin H, so, top reasons edward cullen in the bestbr. he will make you dizzy just by looking into his eyes br. because he drives like a maniac br. because hes my brand of heroin br. because he makes contracting the Spanish influenza sound hot. br. because hell love you for your smell and not your looks br. hell write you your own lullaby br. Because hes a lion that fell in love with a lamb br. Because he makes sick masochism sexy br. Because hes raised the expectations of teenage girls everywhere br. Because you have to remind yourself to breathe around him br. Because even after being alive for well over years, he still has a sense of humor br. because hell make you go on LJ fan communities instead of revising for exams like you should be br. because real men sparkle. br. because sometimes its nice to know someone who can lift a van off of you. br. because he makes years look good. br. because mind reading is sexy. br. because he keeps the mongrels away if you want him to. . because he protects his virtue. br. because he likes to cuddle. br. because there are more reasons than can fit on the back of a tshirt. Even an Emmettsized one. br. Because he dazzles me. Frequently. br. Because his kisses drive people wild br. Because he calls you spider monkey. br. because he dazzles you without knowing br. because he can cool you down during a heat wave br. because he sparkles br. Because he makes other boys mix CDs look like childs play. br. Because hes not afraid to get frisky in a secluded meadow. br. Because hell jump in front of you to protect you from mindtorture. br. Because one little kiss from him is hotter than any french kiss, thank you very much. br. Because he heavily endorses college. br. Because hell watch Romeo amp Juliet with you. And recite all of Romeos lines.brbrmy shirt lists all of those reasons. Hbri know, you will be thinking, im just saying it, but i am obsessed with him. EDWARD CULLEN Lbrbrp.s. i think his brothers are hot too
Is Edward Cullens behaviour only acceptable because he is hot and a vampire?
How would you react if a normal guy acted like that? A guy that wasnt sparkly.
Any person who is sane, who has a brain that can function properly not necessarily a smart person, but a person with a head can tell you, OF COURSE it is NOT in any way acceptable.brAs I always say and will always say, Edward is obsessive, controlling, creepy, overprotective, irrespective, careless and most importantly a stalker. How would any girl feel, no not just a girl, how would a human feel if someone always, constantly tried to control them ?! It isnt logical, having someone guide your steps as you walk, have someone sabotage your car so you cannot go out, have someone sneak irrespectively in your house to watch you sleep, without your permission or your fathers permission.brIs that what I want to teach a bunch of year olds, that its right to disobey your parents, sneak out at night, let boys watch you in your sleep and be happy about it because its love, and splatter everything you know, all your secrets just blurt it all out to strangers. Or should I be teaching them to act like Bella, the Mary Sue of the book. The girl who cant walk three steps without falling for a calamity, the girl who cant survive three pages without severely endangering herself, yeah that seems reasonable lets teach them to be wimps, to be dependant. Brainwash them to mimic her actions and become so selfconscious, so obnoxious and irritating, so shallow I believe that these are amazing morals to teach.brbrThe other day, this girl said shed die for Edward, DIE for him. Can you believe that ?! Shed die for a fictional character, well if you were willing to die for a book character, at least choose a real, decent character. Not a character described to be perfect......... Yeah perfect rolls eyes.brbrI can rant forever about this matter, however it is NOT acceptable no mater how you people try to convince you that it is, no matter how they try to rationalise with you, it is not acceptable. I stress that matter, looks are not everything. I would get a restraining order if any boy tried to harass me like the way Edward romantically harasses Bella.
Is easier to write a poem or cook a meal ?
I think I probably find both of these harder than I really should at times....but if my life depended on it, I would rather have to cook a meal than write a poem.
Is Dumbledore dead?
Or will he rise from the ashes just like his pheonix to help Harry battle Voldemort? Harry will die during the battle, as will Voldemort, but then rise again too!
I dont believe he is dead at all. He is trying to lure voldemort into the open. His death was staged by professor Snape. I believe that Dumbledore and Snape are working together but they wanted it to look like Snape is really one of the death eaters. Dumbledore is a very powerful wizard and with him out of the picture Voldemort will think he can just come after Harry. I believe that in the next book, Voldemort will make his move and then HArry, Snape and Dumbledore will come together and defeat him.br I cant wait for the next book.
Is dream life or life is dream?
quotWhat dreaming does is give us the fluidity to enter into other worlds by destroying our sense of knowing this world...Dreaming is a journey of unthinkable dimensions, a journey that, after making us perceive everything we can humanly perceive,makes the assemblage point jump outside the human domain and perceive the inconceivable.quot
Is Death your biggest fear?
Why or why not?
No. Death is not generally feared, rather the pain associated with the process of dying. This often demonstrated by people wish to die doing something that makes them happy or to die in their sleep a pain free death.brbrThere is nothing after death save for the fears of the religious, so there is nothing to fear there.brbrThere is nothing to fear about the unknown. You and I didnt know tons of things yesterdays and we didnt fear them. Daily, we dont know how things will turn out and we dont fear them.brbrAside from the fact that death is inevitable at this point for each of us, it seems somewhat foolish to fear that which will happen anyway.brbrFear though is generally a belief that something bad will happen. Having a conscious poses a huge challenge in death for anyone who subscribes to beliefs about a soul.brbrIronically, those who fear death, or the afterlife often do very risky things which only bring them closer to that eventuality. We are an odd species.
Is death only the beginning? What do you think?
Great Question! brbrYes, It seems obvious that death is the end of life that is not true. Death is only a beginning of a new life a refreshment, a rejuvenation. The old body is tired. You need more experiences to become mature. You have to move through many other forms of life, and there are millions of forms of life. Buddhists call these three the messengers of God old age, sickness, death three messengers of God. Why? because only through these experiences in life do you become aware of death. And if you become aware of death and you start learning how to go into it, how to welcome it, how to receive it, you are released from the bondage, from the wheel of life and death.brbrIt happens to every meditator the more you meditate the more your inner voice says, Let the ego die. The more you meditate, the more you become aware that a certain death is going to happen. And you know only one kind of death, so naturally you misinterpret you think, I am going to die. You are not going to die, only the I, the ego, the personality is going to die, is going to disappear.brbrMay you always shine like a Star and be fragrant like a Flower,brGod bless your Life with infinite Love and Peace, Amen.
Is death a gift or a punishment?
niether it is just a part of life
Is dancing a sport? i dunno?
Umm yeah. Is dancing a sport? I dunno.
Yea it is
Is dance a sport or an art?
my girlfriend said its a sport and i say its an art. in the yearbook its listed in the performing arts section. she claimed its a sport because there are dance quotteams,quot but u can do dance by urself.
definition of sport An activity involving physical exertion and skill that is governed by a set of rules or customs and often undertaken competitively.brbrSounds like dance would fall under this category as well as being an art form.
Is committing suicide an act of bravery or a sign of cowardice?
This does NOT CONCERN religious nor sectarian practices.
It takes more courage to live through the hard times and ugly places of life than it takes to commit suicide. It takes more strength to remain in this life when you may just rather leave, because you care more about the ones who love you. You would rather hurt than leave them with a lifetime of hurt. Suicide is not a brave act. It is a selfish act.
Is choice a good thing?
yes, if you can master it...otherwise its a very large distraction.
Is cheating on my wife okay so long as she doesnt find out?
My wife has lost all interest in sex, so I went out and found a mistress.
Sounds all good to me Jacky.. every one got to get lay ed somewhere.brbr If Doris dont want to party ..well she had the chance and at the end of the day your kit still belongs to you. brbrSorry ladies but nobody has the right to demand celibacy from anyone just because THEY have quotgone off itquot
Is calling Hitler stupid an insult to the victims of the holocaust?
is it not very nice to say that ,, people were systematically slaughtered my a stupid person? or, ones entire family was murdered by a retard? does it not degrade the victims even more?
Yes. That is a very forward thinking subject.brbrHitler, in many many aspects, was very smart and a very good dictator. But he wasnt successful, and he could be labeled as evil. brbrHe was a power hungry, smart, evil dictator. brbrI dont think people want to give him credit, and he doesnt really deserve any, but thats probably why they call him stupid.brbrretarded is just a derogatory term that is a huge misconception.
Is Buddhism profounder than Christianity?
Thanks for sharing your thoughts. Have a great day!
Hi Third P,brbrWhen you are dealing with two large religions it is difficult to restrict comparisons between them to philosophical terms. In a sense attempting to compare depth or profundity between two religions ultimately must exceed philosophy including the philosophy of religion. The ultimate profundity of a religion can only be measured in religious terms. brbrHowever, since there are so many levels to religious experience, your question has some real validity. But I still feel that the two religions should be compared on religious terms what they offer a religous aspirant, pilgrim, seeker, etc. not what they offer the philosopher.brbrOne approach to your question can be focused on where the path of each religion leads. Does one offer a more profound path, a more profound journey and a more profound outcome? Does Buddhism offer a more profound form of enlightenment than Christianity?brbrI was raised a Christian and had to learn about Buddhism gradually once I had divorced myself from my upbringing. I have been extremely disappointed in the way Christianity has been laid out in the Four Gospels. I find the Gnostic Gospels to be more instructive and to offer a more profound approach to understanding the religious path as well as offering clues for personal transformation.brbrThe goal of Buddhism is ultimate and therefore utterly profound. The implications of this outcome the attainment of enlightenment and the path to get there are also profound. The way Buddhism treats compassion is also profound. Buddhist logic is profound. It is more integrated, consistent, holistic, and so its discipline is more accessible.brbrThere is a dangerous confusion in Christianity and in the way it presents itself. This is extremely unfortunate because many aspects of Christanity are sound, deep, important, meaningful. However, Christianity lost its roots around A.D. when it started to make arbitrary decisions which became dogma soon thereafter. The purpose of these decisions was to consolidate power. The result was the inner power of Christianity was taken away from the individual. The reality of the religious path which exalts the human spirit and purifies the human mind and soul, was displaced from the individual as a religous means and projected onto a mythical construction as if it were a patent or brand name. brbrThis action by the church went to extremes with the notion of a bodily resurrection as the apotheosis of Christianity. No one even the best minds in the world have been permitted to contest the veracity and even likelihood of a bodily resurrection. This form of Authoritarianism lacks profundity if at least part of the religious way is to impart understanding.brbrFor this reason Christianity has distorted the true significance and potential reality of the principle of resurrection that necessarily follows the equally important and mysterious principle of quotcrucifixionquot the very event which might have been shared by both Buddhism and Christianity and even modern Freemasonry! Moreover, they have reduced the ultimate goal and principle of ancient Egypt to a fairytale a fairytale that has alienated many people, from philosophers to scientists to normal citizens who cannot help their inborn need to seek the truth of things. Christianity has also driven a wedge of sorts between Christians and Jews that strikes me as more arbitrary than anything else. brbrBuddhism promises ultimate resurrection, redemption and enlightenment provided one follow a highly disciplined path which is not all suffering. The Tibetans are famous for their exemplary cheerfulness even when on this straight and narrow path. brbrChristianity could offer the same outcome. All it would have to do is permit critical reform in critical areas. It has to return the principle of quotChristquot to the people, the individual, the natural aspirant who we already know from Proverbs are all children of the one, living creator. The reality of Christ is the ultimate reality a reality it shares with that of Buddha, the Atman of Hinduism, the One Heart of the Hopi People, etc. This reality in the end when fully realized is spiritual, All Embracing, pure, indescribable. The achievement must be gathered up by the individual, within the individual. Only when the individual has put in the ultimate effort does the final moment of enlightenment then look as if it came from God or was sanctioned by God. The relation between divine sanction and personal effort is mysterious and blurry. Both religions try to deal with it as best they can. But to me Buddhism is a little more profound in the way it guides the individual from the outset. Christianity is too confusing because it has taken too much away from the individual thus making the individual feel bad, evil, worthless. When young, it is very difficult to understand why one is being treated as bad or worthless before one feels one has done anything wrong. brbrIt seems to me that Buddhism has greater insight into the problem of sin and evil and teaches how to transform both. Christianity is too harsh, too violent in its approach to the overcoming and transformation of quotLuciferquot or the Egyptian quotSethquot. In this sense I find it much less profound both philosophically and psychologically than Buddhism.brbrChristianity could become quite profound if it would reform key principles that currently characterize it. But this would mean it would have to share the Christ principle on a more equal basis. It would have to let go the patent. It would have to acknowledge that the true path leads to spiritual resurrection not bodily resurrection. Most of us will still find spiritual resurrection difficult to both believe in and attain, but at least we would not be forced to choose between believing in bodily resurrrection or not believing in it and being condemend if we choose not to believe in it. This is a dubious, intimidating way to force people to believe in the Almighty and his infinite powers. It is not the body that is resurrected. What is resurrected is spirit and Buddhism offers the aspirant the path to achieve that enlightened resurrection or enlightened state of being, of existence. brbrBuddhism offers countless practices to achieve this end and to break the wheel of Karma. Incidentally in Egypt that is exactly the goal of Horus. Horus was the direct path that broke the whole Osirian cycle of reincarnation. But the function of Horus in the end was similar to the function of the Buddhist quotBodhisatvaquot. Both were not to spend eternity for themselves alone in a state of ecstatic nirvana. The Bodhisatva is to return to earth to help others along the path with wisdom not do the work for them. Horus was to preserve justice everywhere forever. Lofty concepts to be sure! But these principles are also as profound as it gets. In these cases the individual must work and labor and in the end cannot lean on anything other than the divine within themselves. It is a profound concept of spiritual selfreliance that most be continuously renewed and strengthened.brbrPerhaps Christianity came to believe that all these high attainments were impossible for the average man. But what makes Christianity less profound for me is the way it lowers the expectation and aspiration of the average man by placing the final goal of all religion completely out of reach, as if for all time it were the sole prerogative and privilege of Gods quotOnly Begotten Sonquot who was taken back up into heaven in body form. This idea is so entrenched in so many peoples minds that most have come to assume that the Egyptians also believed in the bodily resurrrection which they most emphatically did not. Again and again we read in the Pyramid Texts that what ascends, what departs the body is the ka, the spiritstate of the individual. It is stated with perfect clarity that the mummified body remains in its tomb, carefully guarded in places like the Valley of the Kings here below.brbrTo become as profound as Buddhism, Christianity needs to reform some aspects of the Four Gospels. It has driven a wedge between its own adherents and countless selfrespecting, reverential, but reasonableminded individuals who would prefer to learn more about the meaning of spiritual resurrection the mystical reunion of man and the Divine than to be intimidated into accepting that the Sole Son of God, born of a virgin which violates our understanding of the mysteries of biological development not to mention function, was the only one capable of resurrection following a questionable crucifixion that has only served to confuse that principle as well. brbrThis lacks depth. It lacks understanding. It lacks compassion. And it lacks the method for teaching compassion, not that compassion is easy to learn in any religion.brbrAnd I repeat, the way the mysterious crucifixion has been handled has only served to drive a painful wedge between Jews and Christians another unfortunate leftover from two thousand years ago. But in the meanwhile we also learn very little about the archetype, or principle, or meaning, or significance of the crucifixion which must precede the resurrection if the resurrection is to occur at all. Christianity teaches only the dark, evil side of the crucifixion, when in all religious paths it is known that the crucifixion is an inner phase that brings about both rectification and purification that in turn precedes the famed mystical marriage between male and female. Christianity has turned the crucifixion into an act of barbaric betrayal and ignorant cruelty instead of teaching its true function within the true religious path that leads to an exaltation of spirit. brbrBuddhism teaches a sacred science that allows an individual to be transformed by these principles all the way to enlightenment which is to say all the way to mystical illumination and integration. brbrThe New Testament is filled with nuggets of gold, seeds of wisdom. But it uses intimidation and harshness where deep wisdom and gentle understanding would go much further to encourage people to seek a better state of being. I believe that Buddhist compassion envelops that religion like a placenta. And for me this imparts a certain profundity that I find has been expelled from Christianity.brbrThis is the best I can do for now with your profound question Third P. Many more pages would be required to equal the profundity of the question.
Is Breaking Dawn too graphic?
I am and a mature girl. My mom started reading Twilight and allowed me to read it. We soon read up to Eclipse, I am almost finished with it actually. Tonight my mom wants to buy Breaking Dawn. I am afraid that she will forbid me from reading it because of the goriness and sex. I know how sex works and have watched some risky TV and movies. I can definitely stand gore, my mom might be protective. So based on that info, will it be too graphic? And will my mom make me wait till I am like or which would stink?
Breaking Dawn is not at all grafic no more than the other books At the sex scenes stephenie meyer was thinking about this and is likebrbrand we continued blissfully.brbrbrI woke up with the sun...brbrShe totally skips the scenes and its totally ok for a mature yr. old. She skips lines. Its not really grafic either. So it will totally be ok. Im and mature so youll be able to handle it. Either way ch and or . Those chapters have some stuff in them but Steph was definetly thinking of her audience.
Is Breaking Dawn the biggest mainstream literary disappointment ever?
This has to be the single greatest letdown in literary series history.
At first read I was closer to tears and hysteria after all I had spent an hour in a half in line and then stayed up until in the morning. Jacobs Part was the only thing I can reread without freaking out. Literally there came a point where I felt ill reading about my favorite Character Jacob and the hybrid Nessie. I do NOT mind the age thing if she were some year old who he never met well thats fine seeing as Quil and Claire explain its not sexual until there much, much older. However Jacob has had extreme physical and emotional feelings for Bella the entire series, they made out and declared there love for each other. How can Steph not see the creepiness of him being soul mates with her daughter!brbrIt seems to me it was away of quotOh well if he cant have bella hell get the next best thing!quot I would have rather he didnt imprint and instead fell in love with Leah over time. brbrAnyway thanks for starting this because I really need someone to rant too who actually understands what Im talking about. I was so obsessed it wasnt funny, I knew the writing wasnt amazing but the story was an escape. How young are you? Anyway Im and feel crushed something I loved so much ended in a way I never, ever thought possible.brbrShe has stated several times No Vampire baby making. They lack the Necessary equipment. As far as Im concerned there never was a book four and instead it ended with Eclipse.
Is breaking dawn by Stephenie Meyer really as bad as reviews make it out to be?
I have to admit I am in no way a Young Adult, but a cousin of mine who is gave me Twilight to read not that long ago and I have devoured the other two books but I have yet to get a hold of a copy of Breaking Dawn. I hear that the book sends a very bad message to teenagers and that it didnt seem like Stephenie Meyer actually wrote the book at all. I am planning on picking up a copy soon but I wanted to know if anyone whos read the book has actually enjoyed it?
It really doesnt seem like Stephenie. Its like she tried so hard to please all of her fans that she wrote a crap story. Dont waste your money on the book. Just read an online summary.
Is breaking dawn any good ?
i just finished reading eclipse, and want to know what people thought of breaking dawn.
Yes I love it

Is Black really a color?
I hear a lot of people saying that black is not a color, they say only bright ones like red, yellow, green etc. are colors but not black. Is that true?
Theres a lot of halfright answers here. brbrFirst, it depends what youre talking about specifically. In reference to light, black is not a color, because it is the absence of light.brbrOn the other hand, if youre making black paint like carbon black, black is essentially the presence of all colors.brbrWhite is exactly the opposite. A white light includes the entire visible spectrum, whereas white paint is basically the absence of any spectral colors, therefore it reflects them all. brbrIn truth, both black and white are quotneutralquot colors, because they either include all of the visible spectrum or none of it.

Is Beauty in the eyes of the beholder?
YES beauty IS always in the eyes of the beholder !
Is beauty in the eye of the beholder? How can we know what beautiful is?
Are we told by the media and our peers what is beautiful? If we are persuaded by the opinions of others in regards to what true beauty means, then how do we determine what we really think about the beautiful?
The expression simply means that beauty, as a universal concept, has no intrinsic andor set meaning, definition or even value for that matter. Or if you like, it is a collectively undecidable notion, since its definition is inherently and purely observerbased. It also implies that quotto each its ownquot. In other words, each individual may interpret the idea of beauty of people, objects, thoughts, etc. according to hisher own biased, genetic, emotional, cultural, social and spiritual needs, proclivity and predilection. Having said that, most people feel they quotintuitivelyquot know and quotunderstandquot what is meant by beauty in their minds eye. That is to say, when it comes to judging peoples physical good looks for instance, they can agree on a general consensus of what it is to be beautiful. And thats exactly where the politicallyoriented and moneydriven media plays its most selfrighteous card constantly bombarding us with retouched images and brainwashing us into accepting their artificiallyenhanced symmetrical lines of human design as the universally preferred ones. I for example, much prefer the true lines, looks and feel of a REAL woman one that has a bit of an asymmetry here and there, one where her natural and inner beauty and loveliness compliments her physical contours and makes you feel like you truly belong in her heart than the one the media tries incessantly to shove down our throats. The world of high fashion, for instance, may think that those anorexiclooking, frozenimpressionplastered runway models that walk the hideous gate of tortured legs are the hottest things since the sliced bread but we can and often do beg to differ with them, cant we?
Is beauty a virtue?
Are supermodels ideal presidential candidates?
if you try to make yourself beautiful for your mate then it is a virtue. Read philosophy of ethics by Hartman...brbrbrbrNOT A VIRTUE IN ITSELF AND FOR ITSELF
Is ballet really hard to learn?
Im taking a beginners ballet class next semester in college. I think it looks fun but, some people are trying to persuade me not to take it because it is really hard dance to learn. Is this true? Is ballet hard to learn? Why?
. DO NOT listen when people tell you not to take something, it is not their choice. If you would like to take a ballet class, then by all means do, I would.brbr. Yes, ballet is one of the most difficult form of dance to learn.brbr. It is difficult because you need to mix artestry with perfection. In other words, ballet requires every step you do to be technically perfect, but you also have to make it look really easy. In a beginner class you will most likely be learning the basics. Be prepared to do them over and over again. Repatition does not imply that you are stupid, but it helps you to learn well. In ballet, a class will always start with a barre. This is a selection of steps that warm up all part of your body. It normally lasts about half an hour. You might get frustarated because you are doing the same things over and over, but even people who dance for a living do a barre.brbr. If you really want to dance...DO NOT GIVE UP. It will be tempting after a few months to stop. This is beacuse if goes from learning the basics to turning them into more complex things. This is very hard to do. As stated before hand, you need to make it look good, but also do it well. Sometimes it might even be painful. If after a time you go en pointe dancing on your toes you will need to adjust to the change, and that can hurt.brbr. I assume you have seen a ballet since your intrest for it must have grown from somewhere If not I highly recomend that you see one. It is the holiday season, so almost all cities have a Nutcracker You should go see it. Pay attention to how the dancers tell the story with their movements, and conveys emotion. Also think of how fun it would be to perform. These observations can give you motivation when your feeling that it is to hard.brbr. Dont give up, or not do it at all. It is all worthwhile in the end. You will know this the very first show that you have when you experiance the joy in dancing for others.brbr. Lots and lots and lots of luck. You will have a lot of fun, you will just need to work. Check out www.ballettalk.com and www. abt.org The former is a chat site where you can learn a little more about ballet, and even where to go to see one. The later is the site of a famous ballet company, they have pictures. If you go under education and then dictionary it has examples of major steps from ballet as well as how to do them, so you can see what you will be up to.
Is ballet or jazz better?
Just wondering is ballet a better form of muscle and strength training or is jazz or even another form of dance.
From my own experience both of them are great, especially if you can train in both techniques at the same time. brThe time in my life that I was dancing better is when I used to take ballet as a first class and jazz as a second one. Why? Because Ballet gives you the basis for control, but just alone can make you stiff, on the other hand jazz besides being good for resistance combinations are longer, makes the movements of your body smoother and more free, therefore through training in both techniques, you work not just all the muscles of your body, but also many more qualities that later can be applied for many kinds of neoclassical and modern dance.
I say tomato. How do you say it?
A lazy and flippant way of engendering a discussion about accent, idiom, colloquialism in the written lttypedgt word. I like trying to guess if what I am reading here or there comes from an American finger or elsewhere
In Spanish is quotTomate.quot And it is pronounced the way it is spelled. We dont suffer so much over phonetics as English speakers do.brbrAll joking aside, I think your query is an interesting one. Many a time I ask myself the same thing. I use idiomatic phrases to identify the authors country of origin. Like the word solicitor instead of lawyer. Also, the way words are spelled can give clues like colour instead of color, etc.brbrGood question, loved to ponder on it.brbrLourdes

Is anyone else getting REALLY tired of kids using Yahoo!answers because theyre too lazy to do their homework?
Ive heard all the arguments about kids who have braindead parents, are physically unable to open a book, or live a gazillion miles from the nearest library but if they are computer savvy enough to be HERE, why cant they at very least use an online ecyclopaedia and do their own homework?
I agree. Im a th grader and it disgusts me that people do that. Or when they ask for the summary of a book or something. But maybe Im just strange. Ive never understood why kids cheat. because thats what it is. It is CHEATING! And I like your idea, because it will teach them a lesson about depending on other people to do your work. Its for their own good. If they need HELP its all good and well, but theres a fine line between help and cheating that so many have crossed.
