I use a free host: www.byethost.com I build my websites from scratch, so it has everything I need. If you want a free domain-type name, I'd suggest uni.cc My (sub)domain is "www.agapooka.uni.cc" Don't bother checking how my site looks. I disabled it, because I'm slowly working on it...

In addressing the notion of free thinking, I find it interesting to note that one has the right to practise their beliefs if these beliefs can be linked to a larger institution (e.g. Christianity, Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism, etc.), but one cannot as easily claim their freedom of beliefs to...

The recording can be analysed visually and "sound" can be perceived through other means, such as a piece of paper vibrating as the result of the vibration, or even putting one's hands on the speakers whilst they are operating... The question itself falls apart when overanalysed, which is why I...

I will speak irrespective of my beliefs, in a logical framework resting upon the assumption of a creator god. If god created humanity, does humanity exist separately from god or within god? The answer to this question has enormous implications on the relationship between god and humanity...

People didn't change so much as the situation changed. It seems people identify with something if they take part in it. Nations were run by an elite quite overtly until people created republics. After republics, the populace at least believed that they were part of the process. In a way...

The only law should be that religious dogma be illegal whenever it does not tolerate intellectual inquiry. That is all. As for the burka, I can see the pragmatic reasons for its prohibition. I wouldn't specifically target it, though. I'd argue that any mask that covers a particular portion of...

I don't know how you got into this situation, but... Ti might help. It will help you detach yourself and observe the entire situation. Also, disregard what has been said about giving and taking. You say that you don't expect to get anything and that's beautiful. Do not let anyone tell you...

Find out what turns these men off and use it against them. This is your mission.

Did anyone else notice that this test asks you who you're attracted to in order to tell you who you are attracted to? It's like: if you already know who you're attracted to, you don't need a test to tell you, but if you don't know, you can't answer the questions.

This would corroborate MBTI's use of P vs J. In MBTI, if you are a P, it means that you perceiving function (N or S) is extroverted. One of the characteristics of P is interest in the process over the end result. I, myself, don't consciously get excited over the process, but it is the only...

I added those numbers. 2.822 trillion. What of the other 17+ trillion? To whom are they owed? Agapooka

My insight is that it is undesirable to establish clear boundaries on experiences. I loosely defined "being in love" as an experience. Agapooka
