"I think forgiveness can be both an emotional response as well as a mental and logical decision, depending on severity of the situation and the disposition of the people involved.
I myself are very quick to forgive, or at least I don't hold…"

So, Guantanamo! Still there...

I heard on the radio that hunger strikes are happening again at Guantanamo, and thought to myself: "Huh Guantanamo? Still there?"... And also, the best way to deal with hunger strikers, still is to…Continue

Eystein, replied to Brendan J. Shimizu's discussion If someone asked you "Do you want to know if God exists?" and the person REALLY knows, would you say yes?"I would say yes. After all it would be impossible to know for sure whether the person actually knew or not. It would be far too interesting to hear what he had to say to refuse.
I don't understand how you can say that your purpose in life would…"

Numbers are fine...
1. What the public knows or do not know about the technicalities is in this case irrelevant, it really isn't up to us to sort out this mess anyway. But we should remember, always, because this issue is bigger…"

Andrew J Litzenberg replied to Eystein,'s discussion So, Guantanamo! Still there..."I'll just respond in a numbered point fashion, it's easier that way.
1. Representatives haven't made people forget about Gitmo, it's just that most people are uninformed about policy.
2. It doesn't matter if someone has…"
Eystein, replied to Rebecca Lissette's discussion Why are southerners thought of as stupid?"That's most probably a very likely cause, but then again one can not help but wonder how those politicians get elected in the first place.
Still, it is quite unfair, one might even say stupid, to assume that everyone or most people from…"
Eystein, replied to Rebecca Lissette's discussion Why are southerners thought of as stupid?"I think is the way people speak combined with sort of ideals they predominately believe in. Conservative and conformist ideals. When stereotypical southerners utters such ideals, proud and without irony, it is undoubtedly funny, but not sure…"
Eystein, replied to Ruby's discussion Will there be a war?"I agree full out invasion is not necessary, but it would be in the worlds best interest (the US, SK and Japan especially) to shoot their rockets down before they reach orbit, even if that means infuriating the dear leader even more. Getting China…"
Eystein, replied to Josh Braun's discussion Do bad actions make someone a bad person?"I struggle to express myself properly, so I apologize in advance if it makes little sense.
Yes inflation will of course happen, but the lowest incomes will do little to affect that. This is because the levels of individual income we're talking…"
Eystein, replied to Sabrina's discussion Should the Pledge of Allegiance have the phrase "one nation, under God"?"I think it is pretty ridiculous that anyone feels it necessary to have them say it every single day, even if they left out the 'God' part. 4th July would suffice, if absolutely necessary. What does it prove? It's bizarre...…"
Eystein, replied to Fiona Pascoe's discussion Witnessing pure brilliance"Truth is independent of us. What do you mean 'many different truths'? Truth is what it is, whether or not we are aware of it. Our perception of truth is of course relative. "
Eystein, replied to Vertigo_One [Ops Mod]'s discussion Drone Warfare - A critique of the critique"It is amazing how something so obvious is hard for so many to understand. "
Eystein, replied to Sabrina's discussion Should the Pledge of Allegiance have the phrase "one nation, under God"?"No, it's not right. How often do you guys have to say this anyway? Is it really every day?"
Eystein, replied to Ruby's discussion Will there be a war?"Thing is, NK can launch satellites now. Satellites can carry nuclear warheads. If you're not convinced this is a significant problem, I recommend reading about what nuclear explosions in space can do to a region. It was banned for a reason ;)"
Eystein, replied to Michael Lee's discussion Should downloading music for free be illegal?"I also think that old music deserve less compensation per play-through than new music.

The Toast Dragon (James) said… It looked like it'd take me a while to get back up to date with it, which I may do at some point. In the meantime though, I'm working on a video explaining where the human race stands in the quest to understand the origin of life so I'll make sure you get that :)

Actually I kind of get paranoid, so I only message with it. I got it in order to talk to my cousin who lives in Berlin. Then I saw the group at Nerdfighters and joined....

Well, it'll be another year before I actually take the trip (that's the plan). Most people my age go backpacking in Asia or South America or Africa. Couch-surfing is only one possibility I'm thinking of. I'm still not sure because of how scary it is (crashing in a stranger's home) and besides, my mom won't let me go because she's worried too. If I can convince her (and myself) that it's not that scary, then I might try it out :)

It's just something I want to start but haven't yet. I want to do it in the future maybe, as a hobby.
I'm not currently studying anything right now but I hope to go to university in the future. Maybe something in Biology or Medicine. I don't know. Before that I have to decide where I'm going for a trip. Have you heard of couch surfing? My cousin told me about it and it sounds really cool but also scary :(
