This is so interesting! I was just watching Peter Jackson's rendition of King Kong this weekend, it got me thinking about the possibility of our ancestors and dinosaurs inhabiting the earth at the same time. If by some miracle ancient human ancestors and dinosaurs encountered one another or...

I've often had strong feelings of deja-vu but I can't recall ever experiencing something quite like that. I do remember my last year of high school when all of the nearby (and some not to nearby) universities came and set up tables to show the soon to be graduates what they had to offer, I knew...

To love and be loved (I think it's also the wisest course). :) -R

In Love Thank-you for your reply. Nice to meet you as well. I am from Canada (Halifax, Nova Scotia) so I'd definitely be flying down there. I will make sure to check out Villahermosa, sounds very interesting. Thanks again, -R

Hi everybody, I haven't posted anything in a long long time! I couldn't think of a more eclectic, well-educated group of people to ask for travel advice from. I'm REALLY hoping to be able to travel to Mexico in February with my husband. While we'll enjoy relaxing some of the time we'd really...

I don't know much about Kabbalah except what I see on TV and what little I've been able to find on the internet. I do find mysticism very intriguing. However this concept of increasing your desire to receive but turning it into receiving for altruistic instead of egotistic reasons seems a...

I grew up listening to what my mom listened to which I still enjoy - The Eagles, Phil Collins, Lobo, Elton John, Air Supply, anything that'd make you wanna cry, lol. As a teenager I went off on a rock tangent (yikes here comes the age revealing part) - Metallica, Guns-N-Roses, Megadeth...

Your quite welcome, thank-you all for participating in the dialogue that normally happens in my head. It's much more fun and interesting this way. :D -R

I'm sorry I nearly forgot that I started this thread! Thank-you all so much for your input, I've learned a lot (and best of all that I'm not alone on my train of thought, lol), it's so nice to be able to ask questions and get a informative non-judgemental response. :) -R

I'm not sure if this is the correct section to post this in, please forgive me and feel free to move it if not. I was just thinking about how in the Bible in Genesis it says something along the lines of 'In the beginning there was the word and the word was G-d and it was good'. I know that's...

I agree with Brian in that I think that Bandit started this thread in regards to the plot in the bible (he did get my quote from the Abrahamic Religions board on the Liberal vs. Literal Christian thread). Personally I feel that it is naive to consider the Bible totally a black & white literal...

I don't think that it's fair to say that someone has missed the plot because they interpretted things differently. my 2c -R

"Lord, I have a problem." says Eve. "What's the problem, Eve?" "I know that you created me and provided this beautiful garden and all of these wonderful animals, as well as that hilarious comedic snake, but I'm just not happy." "Well, Eve, in that case, I have a solution. I shall create a man...

Thanks Lunamoth. I'm sorry to hear of your loss as well.

I always thought that I wouldn't be one of those crazy people that mourns pets like they were family members but one of my cats had a stroke and had to be put down this morning and I feel as though I've lost my right arm. He was the most dependable creature in my life the last 5 years or so...

I hadn't heard that one before. I have known of people that have had a hard time working the AA program because they refused to believe in any type of higher power. That cliche may be of use to them. One of my favourites is 'where there's a will, there's a way' and I believe that if a person...

This is precisely where equal rights comes into play, for their rights to be equal neither would have rights over the other. From what I can gather this means that women have more say over living expenses but they must obey and respect men. How could a woman possibly have any right over a man...

You ask us not to judge you before we know you yet you judge us before you know us, is that fair? All the same I do not judge you, I just don't want to be judged by you or anyone. It is not for us to judge another human being, we cannot know how it is to be them. All the same I do not think...

Thanks for the post Juantoo3!! WOW, is the first thing that comes to mind. That's a lot to 'digest' in one sitting (pardon the pun). The first thing that comes to my mind is 'What would our societal values be if we weren't all on opiates?' It's not the first time I've heard that grains are...

I visitied New York City in May of 2002 (8 mos after the 9/11 tragedy), it being my first time there (hopefully not my last) I didn't know the streets all that well. Though I didn't consciously know it, I could feel it when we came near the former site of the twin towers. It was a very eery...
