Is the life of a convicted murderer worth as much as the life of a potential murder victim?
Your opnion. Give me details of your reasoning.?
its depend on the situation....we can%26#039;t simply judge...
Your opnion. Give me details of your reasoning.?
That depends on what you mean by %26quot;worth%26quot;
Reply:On the most part I would say no. A cold blooded killer who has killed innocent people is worthless and should be treated as such.
Reply:It depends on that person%26#039;s skills and attributes, and that person%26#039;s flaws and such.
Reply:All life is sacred irrespective of who you are or what you have done.
So in essence, yes the life of a convicted murderer is worth as much as the life of a potential murder victim.
From a personal point of view I would never want to be in the position to decide whether someone dies. I think it would stay on my conscience forever.
However, my thoughts aside, in some cases a person does deserve to have their life cut short because of the atrocities they have carried out and the danger they pose to others. I am glad there are people strong enough to take that decision for the good of us all.
Reply:Life has worth.
That is what matters, independent of circumstance,
One must be alive to help another person.
One must be alive to be spiritual.
One must be alive to transmute the passions.
One must be alive to possess selflessness.
Yet there is a time to be born and a time to die.
Reply:Life is life. When it comes to human life, all is equal.
Your question is flawed due to a mere potential of someone being a murder victim. We are all potential murder victims.
The example that you provided of a convicted murderer also has a flaw. Being convicted of murder is, of course, a very serious charge. However, was the murderer in any way remorseful of his actions? We will charge him, convict him, and place him behind iron bars. We will see to it that he will never be able to commit another crime ever again. But will he show that he is truly sorry for what he has done?
Additionally, was the murder an act of pure intention, or one of accident. We must be sure. We need proof.
Not long ago our state presented us with a constitutional referendum re-instating the death penalty. The referendum passed. I voted against it. Not because I believe that we should not be able to punish such crimes, The death penalty should be set aside but for the most grotesque of crimes. But because of the fact that humans are flawed and our science is fallible, we can never truly be sure.
If we are wrong, and an innocent man is put to death, what have we gained?
Reply:All worth is relative; that means, every thing can be worth, not a squirt of pee or, millions of dollars, depending on who you ask, and what the situation is. Maybe the convicted murderer is loved by someone who would be willing to put others at risk just so they could keep him/her around. Everybody will decide for themselves what those lives are worth. I personally don%26#039;t think a murderer is worth much of anything, but that%26#039;s speaking generally; it could depend on the specifics of the situation.
Reply:All human life created by God is sacred. All humans are created equal by God. We do not own our lives, we are simply stewards.We must follow God%26#039;s laws or we will become separated from him.
Reply:Why is this a question of one persons life versus another%26#039;s?
Life without parole is an option in 48 states (all except Alaska and New Mexico.) It means exactly what it says, and the worst criminals do not get out. Ever.

Being too Perceptive is a Curse - Ignorance is Bliss?
its one of those days when im feeling really perceptive or intuitive. you think it would be fun and all but when someone starts a joke, with just the few starting lines you already know whats gonna happen and what the joke is about.
when your watching a movie, it seems predictable and your already playing the ending scene in your head, this makes you miss out on suprises, the simple things in life.
while everyones laughing or crying, youll be like %26quot;I knew it%26quot;
take a few steps back and this is exactly how were living our lives, its the unknown of life that makes it interesting, if we knew it all there wouldnt be any point in living and weve met the sole drive for our existence, your thoughts?
Being too Perceptive is a Curse - Ignorance is Bliss?
te reason intuition is difficult or me is that I really feel people around me, and, that is exhausting...
anxious, sad, stressed, dangerous, desperate, miserable, lonely, angry........... its like, when someone talks to me I barely hear what they say sometimes because my brain is registering so much else about them.
Being too Perceptive is a Curse - Ignorance is Bliss?
I remind myself to be selfless.
Not full of myself.
But to empty myself so that I can receive.
Reply:Intuition or pattern recognition. Knowing what%26#039;s going to happen can be both confidence inspiring and conversely boring.
Reply:By getting nervous too and tired when you perceive things too much, And seemingly never ending bugging intuitions that may even cause you sleepless nights without even knowing exactly the reason. But only a brisk of some eerie wind that may had passed your thought and mind.
It is not really about anxiety nor just being so restless..
But may feel strangely differently when you come to think or feel a certain thing that comes to you, oftenly unexpected. It will even try you more in your lucid dreams.
Ignorance seems to be bliss and you don%26#039;t have to be aware of these strangely perception and no chance to get bugged off at all. You may sleep well and exist without too much cares in life.
Reply:If you ever got to that stage, with such a negative feeling then you have been heading in the wrong direction. The path to truth (Al Haqq) and true knowledge (useful knowledge for the hereafter) should lead to a state of bliss and not despair. Moreover, only the Knower of All (Almighty God....Allah subhana wa ta%26#039;ala) knows all there is.
There is knowledge that is like nothing on this earth which our hearts should yearn for....from the celestial realms. The polishing of the heart could take us there, insha%26#039;Allah (God willing).

What do you all think of this poem?
The sun is my deity.
Born and dead again each day,
Living a thousand diminutive lives.
The lights fading in on the stage of survival,
And the dancers shriek to life in silence.
The hours unfold, and the ribbons are cut as it falls.
The wires skulk to the end
Of each other.
All bursts to life and all are electrocuted again.
The ends of the earth meet,
Balancing delicately on the edge of the universe,
Their brutal kisses mark the end.
For light and dark are lovers,
Meeting in secret elegance,
As twilight bows its familiar skull.
And the goodness is evil,
And the evil wants to be good,
And in their cruel kindness, nothing is sealed.
The light shines solid,
Wafting in bright, moving immobility,
Pulling itself together in smiling quiet as the night cleaves it apart again.
The night芒锟斤拷s selfish desires sink the sun,
But the night is not to blame,
For the sun has planned its suicide.
And all the world can hear the words,
Chiming harsh, and drearily correct,
As the white and the black ceaselessly quarrel.
And as the war is hushed,
The bodies are still,
And the tacit stars burn brightly.
What do you all think of this poem?
if in this world there are many person
who love you then
you should know one of them is me
if there is only one perso in this world
who loves you
that only person is me
if u think there is no one who loves you
u should know that i am not in this world

One night a man had a dream.
He dreamed he was walking along the beach
with the Lord.
Across the sky flashed scenes from his life.
For each scene,
he noticed two sets of footprints in the sand.
One belonged to him, and the other to the Lord.
When the last scene of his life flashed before him,
he looked back at the footprints in the sand.
He noticed
that many times along the path of his life,
there was only one set of footprints.
He also noticed that it happened
at the very lowest
and saddest times in his life.
This really bothered him
and he questioned the Lord about it.:

I think our vision will change with the environment, if the world gets darker, we%26#039;ll see better in the dark, if it goes along with this whole %26quot;global warming%26quot; thing, we%26#039;ll probably be able to block UV rays better and our vision will last longer. who know what the future holds.
Reply:Maybe we%26#039;ll evolve in the direction of becoming part of huge machine-like organisms, where we operate in them the same way cells operate in us? Can you imagine machines being considered organisms?

Do you ever feel empty?
Do you ever feel like something is missing?

Someone to love you?
How do you fill the void?
Do you ever feel empty?
yeah,i sometimes feel that i am too lonely ,that no one respects me etc........
Do you ever feel empty?

So that I can become empty.
That is the only way to receive.

Reply:yes, i feel empty... i think its the need to have someone to love and be there for you... its the need to have someone to go back home to.... its the need to be taken care of.... to be able to share everything with.........
and i feel that feeling of emptiness will only go when someone comes and fills that emptiness of our lives.
We can just wish and hope that things change and we feel good about things and about life in totality with the arrival of someone special in our lives.
All the best !!!

Reply:%26quot;You cant change the world without bloodshed.%26quot;
BLOODSHED, is merely another name for an ABATTOIRS.
Perhaps, you%26#039;ve only ever been a City Dweller and have never been into the real World, out there. So you ask a question in the real world, don%26#039;t be terrible surprised when you get a real answer.
Haven%26#039;t you been able, to distinguish that %26#039;BLOODSHED%26#039; is part of %26quot;Who We Are%26quot;, rather %26#039;What We Are%26#039;.
We Are Mammals, to Live-Fight-Be Malicious-Be Nasty, if you like. Yes be Cannibalistic, for we will do anything to survive, if that means. Causing a group of people to live in absolute squalor for an extended period of time %26amp; thus, incurr a very high level of Diabettes, Cancer %26amp; HIV. Then, unfortunately that happens.
By the same token dropping a small Mega-Ton, Nuclear Explosive on a City. Where you have 100,000%26#039;s dead and an equivalent number, with various Cancerous growths. Which will mean, excuitiating agony for years and slowly having parts of your body Surgically Removed, until suicide or natural death are your alternative options.
%26quot;You cant change the world without bloodshed%26quot; That is who we are, take it or catch the next Space Shuttle to Mars. Then you can start a Culture, without Bloodshed. Cause you wont do it here.
Reply:Sure you can its very very e-z....depends how you define world?
You can change your world and without bloodshed maybe you could read to the Blind and and look after your friend and take or him/her out and there will be less bloodshed because you make it possible ...and you will have the greatest gift of all.
A friend for life! And you will have his/her love for life......If their is anything to shed it will his/her love for you thru the shedding of tears of joy.

What do you think on my philosophical poem on war.?
Opposite I the field,
the enemy points and aims,
a line of amo soars,
and ends a family name.
Opposite me a man,
just 20 years of age,
blessed with the gift of life,
I fire out of rage.
the enemy reloads,
I hear a fiery blast,
my friend is shot and killed,
anger to hot to last.
I load my gun and say,
this fools about to pay,
i pull the trigger and pray,
god take his life away,
but god is busy now,
across the graveyard lay,
a dieing soldier man,
praying god take my life away.
I fire one last shot,
the enemy does the same,
the lord answers both our prayers,
and ends this fiery game.

Not another time travel question?
If a person came up to you and said, %26quot;From now on you will live 10 years ago from today%26#039;s date and year, OR you will live 10 years into the future from today%26#039;s date and year. %26quot; Which one would you choose?

Future. I%26#039;m a geek. :)
Not another time travel question?
The past, that way I can relive it all and enjoy it again, and maybe make some changes and know some stuff that others don%26#039;t know. I can introduce technology back then that is out now, and take credit for it and get rich :P
Reply:I would chose June 9 1998 12:23 am Los Angeles California. That way I can live life as a 27 year old in a different time. That way I will know what to expect in the coming years. however I would be tempted to visit my 18 year old self. but doing so will alter the space time continuum.
Reply:easy, im 15 right now and i had a rough childhood. my dad was mean and abusive. i would hate having to relive these past 10 years...bring on the future.
Reply:Th future. Sometimes, once is enough to last a lifetime. Not need to continue looking at the past
Reply:I choose live 10 years ago from today%26#039;s date and year. I%26#039;d make a few changes.
Reply:The past definitely you can always travel into the future in slow motion. I would use the knowledge of the future to become rich, very, very rich.
Reply:hmmm....good one----FUTURE.
Reply:I`d negotiate:)
Ask for 5 years of my past and correct all my crucial mistakes.
And live 5 years of my future, with this new me. The way i`ve always wanted it to be.
Reply:Ten years ago has to be better than the next ten will be, at least for me. Ten years ago I was 49 and still had a lot of living to do. I doubt that I will be alive when I%26#039;m 69! So ten years ago!!!

How do you like this interesting poem (started to lose point in end)?
So Much Pain
Why can’t people grasp the importance of life?
Can they not see that beyond all the pain and strife
There is a force that breaks apart our worries?
It comes in any and every possible shape and size
But the secret is to let it into our lives,
Take a break from the constant hurries.
So many people resort to a gun or knife.
Thinking the only hope is in ending their life.
But I tell you your mind is blurry.
What is a world that people fight and kill each other
Simply to survive and help their decrepit brother
Or mother in fear of being the one to bury
Them in a world of disbelief
That he too will soon leave?
These are the people that should complain and yet don’t.
But look at us, “my girlfriend left me”
“I better go get a gun.
Put myself out of my misery.”
We put our finger on the trigger
Put it up to our head.
In a few moments we will be dead!
But wait! Stop! Why are we doing this?
Look around you, see everything that it so much bigger?
How do you like this interesting poem (started to lose point in end)?
You were on a role until you got to the girlfriend left me part.

The best pro-life poem ever written (by Mary Murphy) Agree?
Just a little baby
So small and petite
Waits with his mom
In the hospital seat.
“Where am I, I wonder
What do I look like?
Will my name be John..
Or will she call me Mike?
I can’t wait to see
what it’s like outside
It’s getting a little crowded,
In this place I ride.
I must be getting heavy,
I bet she cannot wait,
Maybe she’ll have me early
…hopefully I wont be late.
I’m getting so impatient…
I want to see the land,
Oh look here comes the doctor!”
The doctor takes her hand.
“What is he telling her?
I can’t quite make it out,
but mommy’s voice sounds scared,
so full of fear and doubt.
I hope she is okay,
I’ll comfort her before long,
I cant wait to meet her!
Now what could be going wrong?
Here comes all the nurses,
They are lying her in a bed,
I know this isn’t home,
what could the doctor have said?
Are those tears on her face?
I don’t like it here,
My mommy isn’t happy,
And I’m beginning to fear.
The best pro-life poem ever written (by Mary Murphy) Agree?
Ugh this makes me sick. Not for the reasons you want me to either.
In your poem, the baby has no way of seeing the outside world as you mentioned. How does he magically know what%26#039;s going on around him? Babies, even a few months old, do not understand the concept of language or the meaning of tears.
I also don%26#039;t really understand the shift from third to first person in the second stanza.
The baby met the girl about to cure cancer (despite both not knowing what cancer is), but how come she didn%26#039;t tell you about the baby she met who would%26#039;ve been raised in a poor family, likely mistreated and abandoned? What about the baby who would%26#039;ve been the next Hitler? What about the baby who would%26#039;ve have spent a lifetime with Down%26#039;s Syndrome?
To answer the question %26quot;How%26#039;s life without me?%26quot;
Well considering that the woman got an abortion for a reason, her life is probably better.
The best pro-life poem ever written (by Mary Murphy) Agree?
No, I don%26#039;t agree. Only because its very unrealistic and drags on a bit too long. I really don%26#039;t think it will touch too many people - the aborted, the abortees, or the abortionists.
Perhaps try shortening it, make it more true to life (the truth is the only way people are going to hear you).

no, nothing in life is fair. everything is a comparison to something else.
Reply:no, this is only justification, for the wrong things done .
love is true, when it is full of goodwill and spirit of sacrifice for the beloved,
war is a way to demolish the world, in reality, war itself is bad, and unfair, every aspect of it..................

Reply:No. Absolutely not. if people acted honorably, maybe. But they don%26#039;t and nothing end up being fair. Somebody always gets hurt. Love leaves us vulnerable.

If people don%26#039;t value life, how can we be so selfish most of the time giving importance to ourself?

very few people value it in the true sense.
most people value the breaths in our lifespan.
everyone is running after something or the other, fighting about something, revenge, jealousy.

Do you think that THE WORLD NEEDS more people like the Dalai Lama?
The thing is, if everyone were like that, it wouldn%26#039;t seem unique or special... I think we can all learn from him and his teachings... but maybe the world will always need its %26quot;sinners%26quot;.

Reply:I can imagine it and I think we would not think of them as iconic anymore... and one of them would notice that every single one of them will be the same and try to be different.
That%26#039;s how it starts to be like people like him they have there own points of view... but what I mean is that if all are GOOD in the world how can we experience true goodness without experiencing the opposite of that. Life will be dull and it%26#039;s not in our nature to be same as the rest of everyone, we humans have a personality that is different from the rest more friendlier than others, more helpful, more considerate... In the end our race is has those kinds of individuals that may be sticking out like a sore thumb(some may hate, some may like) but they show us that we too can be different and make an impact but maybe not as big of an impact as individuals like Dalai Lama...
Reply:That would make all the difference. More Dalai Lamas sound the death knell for the material in favor of the spiritual. In my opinion, peace, harmony, contentment and everything else positive would reign.
Reply:No, because there can not be good without evil... dark without light... etc. Its the Yin and Yang thing.
Reply:Yes.It would mean eternal peaceon earth, if that was possible.

Dalai Lama existed because of necessity, he knew what the world was going through and he acted as an equalizer. if there were a lot like dalai lama%26#039;s they would definitely change behavior through the course of time.

So, no, I could not imagine more than 1 Dalai Lama or the need for more than 1 at any given time. Except perhaps the 1 in waiting that will eventually replace the current Tibetan spiritual leader.

The thing is, if everyone were like that, it wouldn%26#039;t seem unique or special... I think we can all learn from him and his teachings... but maybe the world will always need its %26quot;sinners%26quot;.

Reply:by evolutionary model, that couldn%26#039;t happen because they don%26#039;t procreate so they are always a dying breed.
Reply:I can imagine it and I think we would not think of them as iconic anymore... and one of them would notice that every single one of them will be the same and try to be different.
That%26#039;s how it starts to be like people like him they have there own points of view... but what I mean is that if all are GOOD in the world how can we experience true goodness without experiencing the opposite of that. Life will be dull and it%26#039;s not in our nature to be same as the rest of everyone, we humans have a personality that is different from the rest more friendlier than others, more helpful, more considerate... In the end our race is has those kinds of individuals that may be sticking out like a sore thumb(some may hate, some may like) but they show us that we too can be different and make an impact but maybe not as big of an impact as individuals like Dalai Lama...
Reply:That would make all the difference. More Dalai Lamas sound the death knell for the material in favor of the spiritual. In my opinion, peace, harmony, contentment and everything else positive would reign.
Reply:No, because there can not be good without evil... dark without light... etc. Its the Yin and Yang thing.
Reply:Yes.It would mean eternal peaceon earth, if that was possible.

Philosophy.....?
are you interested in philosophy and what do like to follow?
Philosophy.....?
Yes.Yoga.
Philosophy.....?
I like to get ideas from all sorts of people.
Plato%26#039;s cave is one of my favourites. It looks at the idea that our universe has many more dimansions than what we see and we see only a shaky shadow of full reality. This idea sits well with ideas of modern superstring and related theories.
There is also the idea that life is all a dream and/or things are not real until perceived. This idea is discussed in Zen Budhism and some Indian philosophies. Some western Christian philosophers suggested that we are all a dream of God, but some modern physicists suggest that we might al have Godlike powers to influence the dreams we call our lives. Lee Smolin is the Physicist I follow most closely but I take ideas from many camps and see what fits with experieces of reality or the ideas of others.
Reply:I like to philosophise about things and I like to follow my nose, it guides me well.
Reply:Yes , and I guess I follow my mind .
Reply:The study of philosophy could be useless unless you closely follow the instincts of your mind, for if you fail to keep in your mind the nature of your human needs, that however limitative are never full satiated, your need for warmth of emotional and the need to round things up into facts, in time, your search might never come to any realistic end.
The search for truth, beauty, balance, peace and justice might be fascinating but the this search never come a close until we learn to step in and find courage to make some sense of out all that might be in our mind at any time. The thirst for knowledge is like the thirst of man upon a raft on a vast ocean, unless he learned to distill the water he might die of dehydration. The ability to realize a dream is in fact the true human ability to dream, or the dream can be enchanting, misguiding and doorways to endless possibilities for the mind and none of them real. We have to choose one out of many things as we can have only one thing in view at a time, on place to step on, and on direction to head toward. The difference is that of our sense of purpose, or the lack of it. The mind instinctually, or innately, is designed for a purpose in life that we should seek and search and find through all philosophy and in life itself.

How does your past come along?
The present is the moment of vital realizations ... the moment of possibilities, and the change.
And I believe in the moment that is now, where the future lingers in our imagination and in our hopes, the past walks along with us and undergoes a constant change.
When I, for instance, I do things I add to the things of the past ... when for instance I am able to realize that it is about the time the nature of some past relations changed, when I learn to forgive, heal and reconcile in the heart.
I think whenever we improve, and get better in life, our past gets better too.
Nothing in life really comes to an end.
Thanks for your thoughts and response!
How does your past come along?
Some times like bad luggage .
How does your past come along?
Everything which happens has a cause.Therefore the past deeds are rewarded in the present. e.g.If you study to become a doctor you cannot become an engineer.The same holds true to life.If we change for the better now we do become better in future.Also our past misdeeds get subdued and we prepare ourselves for good.Best wishes
Reply:Our past is just a memory of our present experiences which can be updated and modified as we learn more about people and our environment. As we mature, as people we look back on memory%26#039;s from a different perspective.
Reply:past comes spontaneously when present is not clear and the future is uncertain.
Reply:It is a stepping stone for the better.
Reply:The immediate present buffer of information of what is happening at the moment lasts about ten seconds. The smallest bit of now we experience is around one thousandth of a second or less. We generally take about 1.5 to 2.0 thousanths of a second to respond to things.
There is also a delay in experience where we think we just thought of something but our brains already have decided what we are about to think. It is possible for example to have someone read or influencce your thoughts and print out what you are thinking before you thought you thought the thoughts.
E.g. If you are asked to calculate a mathematical problem or pick a random number, your brain will have the answer before your mind feels it consciously thinks the answer.
If your brain is being monitored by a machine that prints out a prediction of your decision based on known patterns, the machine will print out your decisions before you consciously make the decision. If you see the printout as it comes out it would feel as if your thoughts were being controlled by the printout. If the part of the brain that lets you know what you are thinking about malfunctions you may suffer schitzoid symptoms where your own thoughts feel as if they are imposed from another mind. E.g. you will hear voices or when you imagine what it is like to be Napolian you will actually believe you are him because you can%26#039;t separate reality from internal imaginations.
Getting back to length of the past.
After you have your ten seconds of short term memory, the brain selects stuff to keep in longer term storage. This process takes a number of hours to write your memories into a more permanent format. This is akin to the writing stuff on a hard disk or backup media, which is stored in temporary RAM. If your computer reboots you loose your shortterm RAM, but keep stuff stored on the hard disk.
If a human is in a car accident or other trauma that bashes the head causing a reboot, the long term memories in the process of being chemically stored are lost. This usually causes loss of events of a few hours around the time of a major accident.
In the case of mental trauma memories that are painful may be masked with similar observable effects.
As mentioned there is a short term memory cycle of a few hours relating to permanent memories and a response cycle arouns 1.75 thousandths of a second. There is also a long term memory cycle where memories may be rewritten when we recall events. This cycle varies depending on how often a memory is accessed but my impression is it usually cycles around a month or so.
It is possible to completely rewrite memories by making small ammendments in each recall. basically our long term memories older than a few days could be memories of memories, and may be as reliable as Chinese Wispers.
Reply:A moment in time of complete clarity, light and ineffable love... is but momentary but paints its memory upon our minds canvas for an eternity in a lifetime to warm, inspire, shield and comfort in our darkest hour and coldest climes. Simply an instant in time...
Life changes pace and its radiant colours are vibrant and sepia in turn and beautiful in its entire myriad kaleidoscope. Yes life remains constant as the ongoing need of man for stability and peace, hung in limbo from the great heights of our aspirations precariously threatened with the realisation of our dreams and worst nightmares.
Life changes when man and his expectation of life change. Life, the world then is our needs, desires and dreams met or wanting.. and is as therefore satisfactory or bereft in direct correlation.
Circumstance ends when our needs have been attained and remains fragmentary as an isolated particle of an incomplete tapestry of our life and fulfilment...
Such is the nature of life the world and man.
Reply:All our mistakes in life progression are stored in a receptacle called the past. We don%26#039;t usually do something new today without harking back to that past where we compare so that the things we do today will not be an error repeated.
But, of course, change will always bring in something new, in which case we grope about in the dark where, again, mistakes lurk. Viewed from tomorrow, today is again the past and here we leave the mistakes we%26#039;ve learned, and so on.
In other words, the past is not necessarily an improvement when we improve, i.e. learn but a wasteland from which we gauge our self-improvement in our life journey.

Reply:This question is that of a more complex nature as it is not about the pessimistic view of a desolate and abandoned world, it is about the present state of human race, its mind, and its relation to its environment. It is attempts to explore indirectly as what impact human civilization has had on the planet, as this is what basically matter most to the inquiring and inquisitive minds, to find out and to know better as what it is and what is its impact upon the environment it inhibits.
The question 鈥榳hat will happen after humans die out鈥?therefore is based upon an active sense of wonder and bewilderment upon the catastrophic ecological changes that, according to scientists on media, are taking place globally. It is a matter much worrying that the rise in temperature would eventually cause meltdown of polar ice, permafrost, there will be floods, shortage of food and then another other ice age might usher us to last for about ten thousand years, however all this might not happen overnight or even in decades.
I think the planet earth is far too sturdier to be permanently effected by any superficial changes upon its surface. It will restore to its natural balance in couple of thousand years, as the volcanoes round the globe keep recycling its atmosphere, the most dynamic factor in for terra maintenance, then earthquakes and flood has power to level the ground to its natural normality, natural growth of plants can takeover artificial constructs of buildings, where the elements: air, water and the sun, own their own can cause things to rust, to crumble and to decay overtime. I think if humans are gone, then in twenty or so thousands years, all traces of them will disappear too. We have not built anything half as durable as the pyramids to withstand the elements of natural and natural events.
According to my personal viewpoint on life, however, I believe that emergence of life is an integral aspect of physical evolutions, that life might disappear now but it can reappear again soon as right balance is struck among the factors responsible for creating life. It could also be most probable for life to re-emerge in human form in couple of million or so years as the logical consequence of natural evolution, as after all, all the elements, and the factors of change in the physical state of things would still be the same.
[edit] ... and then there will always be people!!

It is a matter much worrying that the rise in temperature would eventually cause meltdown of polar ice, permafrost, there will be floods, shortage of food and then another other ice age might usher us to last for about ten thousand years, however all this might not happen overnight or even in decades.
I think the planet earth is far too sturdier to be permanently effected by any superficial changes upon its surface. It will restore to its natural balance in couple of thousand years, as the volcanoes round the globe keep recycling its atmosphere, the most dynamic factor in for terra maintenance, then earthquakes and flood has power to level the ground to its natural normality, natural growth of plants can takeover artificial constructs of buildings, where the elements: air, water and the sun, own their own can cause things to rust, to crumble and to decay overtime. I think if humans are gone, then in twenty or so thousands years, all traces of them will disappear too. We have not built anything half as durable as the pyramids to withstand the elements of natural and natural events.
According to my personal viewpoint on life, however, I believe that emergence of life is an integral aspect of physical evolutions, that life might disappear now but it can reappear again soon as right balance is struck among the factors responsible for creating life. It could also be most probable for life to re-emerge in human form in couple of million or so years as the logical consequence of natural evolution, as after all, all the elements, and the factors of change in the physical state of things would still be the same.

ALLAH SIGN ON THE WAY: HUMAN EMBRYO CLONE WITH ANIMAL EMBRYO : SPEAKING BEAST iN PROCESS?
Sorry if I missed something, but is this a question or a polemic? Frankly I don%26#039;t care what your (or anyone else%26#039;s ) Holy Book says about anything - particularly if it%26#039;s a prophecy. Just to help you put things in context, recorded predictions about the end of the Earth go back way before your Prophet (peace and blessings be to Him, etc.) and we are stll here. Perhaps you could apply your undoubted sincerity and wish to communicate to dealing with some of the more pressing problems we face here and now - poverty, war, disease, religious intolerance etc., and leave the Creator to get on with the business of deciding when enough is enough.

So sorry, but this rant/preaching of a failed %26quot;reward/punishment%26quot; faith system and %26quot;prophet worship is not a question.
Further, many animals speak. Have you never heard of a myna bird or a parrot? Have you never heard of those gorillas that have learned to employ sign language so as to accurately communicate with humans?
Irrational extremism seldom seems wise just as it seems unwise to seek ones own answers from any other source than from within ones self.

I guess they were all created by an unknown scientist God. Before He creates the world He must have failed several times. Those objects you find in the universe are the remains of His several attempts made by God to create a fine world. At last He had succeeded in creating the world and all creatures. Now, I think, He is watching.

It clearly described the origin was without form and void; it may be a plasma state or just energy. %26quot;darkness was upon the face of deep%26quot; indicated that it should be energy because plasma is still bright inside.
Of course, you can go to verse one to say God created that energy. If it was created, then God did created darkness which can only serve alienation to God. Hence, our alienation against God is in God%26#039;s will.

First law of thermodynamic states that energy cannot be created nor destroyed.
I believe many people have hard time understand the concept of infinity, all i can say is that the concept negates the starting point, meaning the %26quot;start%26quot; doesnt exist.
Often atheist say this when faced with this question, if god always existed why cant energy. This is a legitimate counter argument, i did not find any theists who were smart enough to counter this. All they said was some super complex being was just always there.
You can find rough conclusion from these two premises, either god always existed or energy always existed, meaning something do not need start. If you have to bet, will you go for god, which you cannot see or sense or energy which you are surrounded with right now?
Reply:Since %26quot;existence exists%26quot; (you would not argue that, would you?) to argue that at one time existence did NOT exist would be to contradict the meaning of the word. Therefore, it must always have existed, never not existed, always to exist in the future.
%26quot;Existence is a self-sufficient primary. It is not a product of a supernatural dimension, or of anything else. There is nothing antecedent to existence, nothing apart from it—and no alternative to it. Existence exists—and only existence exists. Its existence and its nature are irreducible and unalterable.%26quot;
Leonard Peikoff “The Analytic-Synthetic Dichotomy,” in the book %26quot;Introduction to Objectivist Epistemology%26quot;; Ayn Rand
%26quot;Naturalism, challenging the cogency of the cosmological, teleological, and moral arguments, holds that the universe requires no supernatural cause and government, but is self-existent, self-explanatory, self-operating, and self-directing, that the world-process is not teleological and anthropocentric, but purposeless, %26quot;

Existence is the given. If all matter were to disappear, or to have been at one time non-existent, then by definition existence itself would not and could not ever come into being. %26quot;Ex nihilo%26quot; is an impossiblity.
%26quot;Existence and identity are not attributes of existents, they are the existents . . . . The units of the concepts “existence” and “identity” are every entity, attribute, action, event or phenomenon (including consciousness) that exists, has ever existed or will ever exist.%26quot;

Asking where matter came from commits the fallacy of the Reification of the Zero, turning a %26quot;nothing%26quot; into a %26quot;something%26quot; without cause. Energy has always existed because that is the nature, the definition, and the denotation of existence.

Reply:It is mathematically possible for order to arise out of chaos. The simplest example is the %26quot;Game of Life%26quot; which uses rules of 2d shape interactions.
Much of our physical sciences are based on chaos at the micro level such as random or unwritten quantum states interacting to form observable objects following predictable laws at the macro level that we observe.
The information in our DNA was (at least partialy) selected by evolution. The same is also true of the information contained in the seed conditions of the Big Bang, which made the evolved organism we call our Cosmos. Out in the Mega or Multi-verse we have a string of evolutionary choices that we might follow back to the very first form, or thought, which arose out of chaos.
The mechainsms of how our universe was chosen are fairly clear but encompas a multitude of areas of science and psychology.
If you choose to call the initial mind God, then it is likely that God or God%26#039;s thoughts evolved with the evolution of creation.
If you choose to stay within our space-time and call our universe or our universes creators or parents God, then we may have a God before human time which exists beyond or before time existed in our space-time continuum.
all of our modern physics is based on the assumption of something like quantum mechanics that allows things to pop ina nad out of existence for no reason or from the whim of observers like ourselves.

As to your idea that someone has to be behind information, you may be correct, but it may be that every sub atomic particle has a sepaeate mind behind it or the decisions that make our universe may be ultimately completely sensless or arbuitrary.

Our planet also acts like a living organism with its own countermeasures to avoid ill health.
Many people look to the laws of thermodynamics and the tendency of things in our macro world to break down as proof that order requires external assistance.

There still jowever are many mysteries, the least of which is why building blocks such as the underlying chaos or the minds that perceive the order of the universe should have existed in the first place.
No matter what questions we find answers to we can always ask another %26quot;Why is it so?%26quot; question to our latest answers.

%26quot;He created the heavens without any pillars that ye can see; He set on the earth mountains standing firm, lest it should shake with you; and He scattered through it beasts of all kinds. We send down rain from the sky, and produce on the earth every kind of noble creature, in pairs. %26quot; [Quran 31:10]

Reply:Depends on what reason.
Reply:some yes.some no.It is gods words that says we should forgive others like he forgives us... no matter what the case is we should all forgive.
Reply:It is a very noble thing to forgive some one for what he did,and given an other chance.,the person could have remorse and feel that he should repent .
Reply:nope, it might lead you into the same bad situation you were in before. I think a little unforgiveness remains to remind us not to make the same mistakes and to not trust those same people. But it is noble to forgive when the offenses are something we could see ourselves doing if we were upset or thoughtless. But when it comes to abuse and lack of remourse for the pain that was caused I think that is unforgivable.
Reply:well....it does depend on what the person has done.we shud all remember anyhow that what ever a person does to hurt any other person cud be cos of the situation they r in.if you cud put urself in that situation and work it out its good.and also if you think they did it just to hurt you its good you forgive that person.cos if you r going to hold a grudge against everyone and everything then you are going no where in life.i believe if you dont hurt anyone no one is going to hurt you and also if they do, you can be the bigger person and forgive them cos that is very noble and only a person who is big at heart can fogive someone for something they have done and forget abt it also.its very imp u forget abt it.cos only forgiveness doesnt work unless its forgotten.
Reply:Forgiveness releases both the forgiven and the forgiver from the chains that bind two angered opposing forces as one. It is wise and noble then to forgive for the sake of one’s own peace of mind and the shedding of unnecessary and harmful emotional baggage.
Forgiveness of other should only be proffered if the person has made amends, righted their wrongs, admitted their misdeeds and actively and sincerely seeks forgiveness.
Reply:Yes ALL PEOPLE. By holding grudges you first burn yourself inside and harm your own person more than the person against whom you are holding it.Possible that the person may not be even aware of it + you dont damage the other person, you damage yourself.
Reply:Can you allow a poisonous snake in your house and allow it to stay in? You will fear that it will bite someone and try to search it and kill it. You can forgive anything but see that that forgiveness not bringing any bad result. In certain cases you can forgive but you must fly away from the spot at once. Remember and be careful.
Reply:Are these people asking for forgiveness? Are they sorry? Forgive them.
If they are not sorry and you come to understand that they are impaired and can%26#039;t, for your own sake, work through your feelings and forgive them if you can.
Adolf Hitler, Charles Manson, Mohammed Atta? Atilla the Hun? God knows. I do not.
To forgive is not to forget, but it is to forgive as much as you are able.
True and appropriate forgiveness with wise remembering is noble.
Reply:If there is no discrimination faculty,then only we forgive all,which is not an outcome of intelligence.
Reply:Forgiving is optional depending on your beliefs.
I used to believe in loving my enemy, but if I had a choice between offering my last coin to a good person (in equal need) who worked hard or a thief, I believe the good should be rewarded before the bad.
Reply:To err is human, to forgive, divine.
Get back to you on where that came from.
Reply:forgiving doesnt mean forgetting, one can forgive but still remember.
to forgive someone is not about what the other person did, but its if your strong and confident enough to face him again.
forgiveness is not about the sinner, its about you.
%26quot;to err is human, to forgive is divine%26quot;
Reply:it is easy to teach people... forgiving... but difficult when we have to forgive others....basically we forgive others not for them but to our own self....by forgiving... I can let go of my anger and my desire to punish..... It frees me to think about ways to make a difference... possibly allowing me to let go of past hurts and resentments.
Reply:Perhaps not %26quot;noble,%26quot; but... it would be right. To forgive someone lovingly, even if they don%26#039;t deserve it... That is a noble thing indeed. It doesn%26#039;t matter what they did, or if they even ask for forgiveness, we should forgive them. They may not change, but that is up to them.
Reply:It%26#039;s just smarter to move on and resolve to become less susceptible.
Reply:Do You Forgive as Jehovah Does?
“If you forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you; whereas if you do not forgive men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.”—MATTHEW 6:14, 15.
“JEHOVAH is merciful and gracious, slow to anger and abundant in loving-kindness. He will not for all time keep finding fault, neither will he to time indefinite keep resentful. He has not done to us even according to our sins; nor according to our errors has he brought upon us what we deserve. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, his loving-kindness is superior toward those fearing him. As far off as the sunrise is from the sunset, so far off from us he has put our transgressions. As a father shows mercy to his sons, Jehovah has shown mercy to those fearing him. For he himself well knows the formation of us, remembering that we are dust.”—Psalm 103:8-14.
2 Conceived in sin and brought forth with error, with inherited imperfections always trying to lead us captive to sin’s law, we sorely need a God who ‘remembers that we are made of dust.’ Three hundred years after David described Jehovah so beautifully in the 103rd Psalm, another Bible writer, Micah, extolled this same God in much the same way for his gracious forgiving of sins once committed: “What god can compare with you: taking fault away, pardoning crime, not cherishing anger for ever but delighting in showing mercy? Once more have pity on us, tread down our faults, to the bottom of the sea throw all our sins.”—Micah 7:18, 19, The Jerusalem Bible.
3 In the Greek Scriptures, the word for “forgive” means to “let go off.” Note that David and Micah, quoted above, convey the same meaning in winsome, descriptive words. To appreciate fully the amazing extent of Jehovah’s forgiveness, let us review a few of the many examples of it in action. The first one shows that Jehovah’s mind can be turned from destruction to forgiveness.
Reply:I think so, but it%26#039;s not so simple. Let me explain.
For starters, I need to know what you mean here. It%26#039;s easy to take %26quot;all people%26quot; as an abstract concept, and you can%26#039;t forgive an abstraction - that%26#039;s just pretty thinking. But if you mean everyone who%26#039;s done wrong - especially who%26#039;s burned *you* - then we%26#039;re getting closer to the mark.
Another thing: I wouldn%26#039;t forgive simply because it%26#039;s the noble thing to do. That%26#039;s focusing on %26quot;Oh, how noble I am for having mercy.%26quot; It%26#039;s not about you, it%26#039;s about the other person.
Also, I%26#039;m not sure *when* the forgiveness ought to come. My inclination is, the sooner the better. And it should feel right - if you still feel pissed off at someone, and you say, %26quot;I forgive you%26quot;, you haven%26#039;t really forgiven that person. (Remember when you were a kid, and you had to say sorry - but you didn%26#039;t feel sorry? Same thing.) If you can really get over the rage and say the words, with the intent of granting them another chance, you%26#039;re a lot stronger than me.
To those who brought up Hitler: not a good case. Hitler%26#039;s too remote to register on the emotional scale. Make it the a**h*** who just ripped you off, burned you, raped you, whatever. Make it family, that%26#039;s even tougher.
As for telling us to use judgment: forgiveness isn%26#039;t about judging who deserves it. None of us deserves it. That%26#039;s the point. It%26#039;s not about discrimination, and it%26#039;s not about you. That%26#039;s what makes it so damn amazing - and so hard, and so rare.
Reply:Honey it may be noble. You are really a much better person than I am. I put out %26quot;I%26#039;m over you%26quot;, but if someone pusher the right keys, I%26#039;m buzzing in my head with a smile on my face. One of my many weaknesses.
Reply:Forgiveness does not imply you become a door mat for future abuse. Forgiveness is often misunderstood. I have forgiven, wished the other well %26amp; meant it, yet did not continue to put myself in the line of fire. Forgiveness means I hold no ill will, I refuse to judge your reality by your error %26amp; see you perfectly as you were created, but I do realize that you have not wakened to your reality yet %26amp; will no longer be an instrument in your self sabotage. Sometimes I help others more sitting on my sofa praying for them or sending them Love than I do with face to face contact. I can not be of service to anyone if I allow myself to be pulled under water with them.
Many Blessings!
