Open Question: what is the true nature of evil?

could evil be fairly defined as the actions of the televangelists ( especially in the states ) who beg people to send them their money in order to fund them to enable them to convince even more suckers to send in their money? could the definition be applied to the mormons founder joseph smith? a sexual predator and a convicted thief and fraudster who was also a gifted opportunist who plagiarised the king james bible and other contemporary 19th century works to compile his unspeakable ( if not excruciatingly bad ) ' book of mormon'? could one of the founders of the jehovahs be described as truly evil? I speak of taze russell , another opportunist who was also a drunk who fleeced the trusting ( if bovine ) rank and file members of their money which enabled him to amass an impressive collection of cars and the keys to a luxury farmhouse built by the trusting faithfull. or what about the islamic martyrs who will work in pairs to slaughter others who believe in another sect which worships a different relation of Mohamed? one of them to detonate the bomb and the other to wait until the ambulance comes to pick up the wounded and the dying before detonating their own bomb in order to increase the bloody death toll. are their actions not evil?. Religion is the root and the cause of all evil. the religious cant even agree amongst themselves. each one of them squabbling like children that their particular sect or cult or set of beliefs is the only right one. the only thing which prevents the religious from being an hilarious joke is the knowledge that they are a very powerful lobby. more

Open Question: Do alot of the Jordan fans overrate his greatness?

I would say Jordan is a top 3 player but I think he benefited from the fact that advertisement became bigger due to Magic and Bird and the fact he played weak competition. I think Magic and Wilt accomplished more than Jordan but faced stronger teams and did not have as much advertisements. I think when it is said and done Lebron will be a better player than MJ and will probably have 4-5 rings in a tougher era of basketball. The teams and players from the 90's in my view was not as good as the 80's or right now. For example Bird and Magic are easily top 6 players and when their teams were at the top of their game, Jordan could not beat them or Isiah Pistons or Dr. J and Moses Malone 76ers. Also now the perimeter players are alot better by time its over D-Wade, Lebron, and Kobe may be ranked among the top ten. Duncan, Shaq, Chris Paul, and KG will probably be top 15-20 players. These players are better in my view than Olujawon, Malone, Barkley, Clyde, and Miller. Also the teams are just better. Shaq's Lakers, Duncan's Spurs, Garnett's Celtics, and Kobe's later Lakers. more

Open Question: Question about the Army and the TV show The Unit?

The Unit is one of my favorite shows...my question is about the Selection Process...now I know the show is fiction, however they are all regular Army or Rangers... During Season 1, Episode 8, after a Helicopter accident, Bob Brown flashes back to his selection process. S/M Blaine and Sgt Gerhardt put the 100+ men through rigorous training to weed out the weak. At the end, 4 people, including Sgt Brown are selected. These events happened 18 months previous to the pilot episode which shows Sgt. Brown as the rookie in Alpha team, which is lead by S/M Blaine. Now my question is this, why would they allow a rookie onto Alpha team? Wouldn't one of the members of Beta be moved up to Alpha and Sgt. Brown be put into Beta or even a lower ranked team such as Gamma or Delta, if they exist? more

Open Question: Server in Ireland called "mi.o2.ie" causing Google indexing problems?

If a search is entered for our site, our URL has been replaced with "mi.o2.ie/www.oursite.com" and our own listing is gone for the most part. For some reason, Google is placing priority on this mi.o2.ie duplicate site rather than our own site, and giving this URL a higher ranking. As a result, our clients are visiting the wrong URL, and there is a long list of serious issues here. This could potential shut us down if this is not resolved. We have reported this to Google Spam and also to Google Site Reconsideration for help - apparently Google has no phone number. I noticed we are not alone, for example see mi.o2.ie/www.ford.com and mi.o2.ie/www.godaddy.com. However, on these other sites like GoDaddy and Ford and many others, Google does not seem to be placing priority on the duplicate site. I hope this is a temporary glitch with Google. Any assitance, fix or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!! Thanks. more

Open Question: USAF Air Battle Manager, or Combat Systems Operator?

I am coming up on my OTS application deadline, and since pilot is not a viable option for me due to a TBAS score that is just ok, I am going to apply for both ABM and CSO. I am having a tough time deciding in which order to rank them because I feel like there is a lot that I don't know about both. I plan to make this a lifelong committment (to the AF, not necessarily to one position) and would like to choose something that will allow me to advance as much as possible (I am pretty sure that I would enjoy the hell out of both jobs). I have been told by my recruiter that ABMs get to use their 4th year to re-train into another field if they so choose...I wonder why this is an option? Do many people leave the field because they don't like it or burn out? And does re-training after 3-4 years hurt your chances to eventually make a rank like Colonel or General? I like the idea of getting to do several different things, but I don't want it to hurt my career potential in the long run. Does anyone have ANY input about either or both of these fields? Any likes/dislikes? Recommendations? Any and all help is much appreciated!! I have to decide today! :( more

Open Question: Where does the Back To The Future trilogies rank in movie trilogies? ie.....GodFather, Star Wars......?

Open Question: With the Belgian Pro League now ranked above the SPL...?

Don't you agree it is time for a major restructuring of the Scottish Football League system? Let's face it, the SPL is nothing compared to what it used to ber, and all that holds it together is the Old Firm, and even they have considered jumping ship from time to time, I think it is time the SFA got together and re-organised the league. Here is a plan that could work (worked out with my mates, 3 Rangers fans, 2 Celtic fans and a Dundee United fan); 1: Increase the number of teams to 16. With the bottom 3 getting relegated. That leaves 26 teams to in the lower leagues. So they should have a tournament to decide which 2 junior teams can join the pro's and make it 28. Then have a first and second division, with 14 teams each. 1st division has 3 promoted, 2 relegated. Second division has 2 promoted, none relegated. 2: Make the SFA pull their fingers out and inject some money into the teams. So far only Celtic and Rangers are any good. And only two teams (Motherwell and Hibs) showing any real signs of improving. It is a disgrace that a team that was the first in Britian to win the European Cup, or the most successful team on Earth, has to go play on a surface that closely resembles concrete during the winter infront of crowds of less than 3000 and with parts of the stadium in disrepair. Give money to the smaller teams, it is unfair but it makes it more interesting. Some outside competition to the Old Firm. 3: Spend some money on Sky Sports and the BBC. Get those matches on the TV! And not just games involving the Old Firm. Let's get Dundee United vs Aberdeen and Motherwell vs Hamilton on the box. I know i am English but i live here and watching Scottish football is part of me now. And i hate to see any league decline like this. Especially one that used to be so great and so famous. So, do you agree with me? Or not? Or do you think the league needs something else? Or do you simply think that it is unsavable? more

Open Question: Since Obama has averted major economic collapse and is on the brink of creating something that we've been tryi?

Obama has saved dozens of hostages ,bought the death toll in Iraq down to almost zero for American soldiers,captured dozens of high ranking al qeida ,took the offensive in Afghanistan to the point where some troops are leaving early, stopped dozens of major terrorist attacks on the US and has ensured no American civilians have died during these attacks ,is holding major corporations to be accountable ie Toyota , and revived the economy to the tune of almost 6,000 points (a record number) in a year and also stopped the jobs from hemmeraging, Is all the phoney baloney republican and tea party anger just sour grapes because they couldn't or wouldn't accomplish it ? Isn't this the same type of reaction when black atheletes outdid their white counterparts ie tiger woods or Jackie Robinson or Joe Johnson why is it that every time a black man makes an accomplishment there's always this undercurrent of sour grapes if you keep your lips puckered your face is gonna stay that way , why so salty ? And is there a ball of anger in your throat? And why? Aren't you glad that America is in better condition than when bush left? Or do you want the country to fail like rush limbaugh says ?

Open Question: Rush Limbaugh wants to leave the country if health reform is passed!? Question: Where would he go?

Apparently on his radio show, Rush stated that he would leave the country if health reform is passed and go to Costa Rica. ------------------------------------ CALLER: If the health care bill passes, where would you go for health care yourself? And the second part of that is, what would happen to the doctors, do they have to participate in the federal program, or could they opt out of it? [...] LIMBAUGH: My guess in even in Canada and even in the UK, doctors have opted out. And once they’ve opted, they can’t see anybody Medicare, Medicaid, or what will become the exchanges. They have to have a clientele of private patients that will pay them a retainer and it’ll be a very small practice. I don’t know if that’s been outlawed in the Senate bill. I don’t know. I’ll just tell you this, if this passes and it’s five years from now and all that stuff gets implemented — I am leaving the country. I’ll go to Costa Rica. ------------------------------------------------------- See this link for a playback of the call. http://thinkprogress.org/2010/03/09/limbaugh-exile-health-care/ Unfortunately it looks like Costa Rica already has a similar system to the reform package that's being discussed: "Costa Rica’s hybrid government-private health care system provides comprehensive universal coverage to all residents — and even sells affordable policies to soon-to-be visitors like Limbaugh. The government owns several major public hospitals and operates small clinics in almost every community. Workers are required to contribute 15% of their salaries to health insurance and the unemployed “obtain public funding for all health services, including prescription drugs.” At least a third of all Costa Rican residents receive some care in the private sector and the government regularly purchases services from private providers. The system is not without its problems, but it boasts a higher ranking from the World Health Organization — Costa Rica is 36, United States 37 — and has higher life expectancy and lower infant mortality rates. Costa Rica also spends less per capita on health care than the United States and insures almost all of its residents." So my question to you is, where in the developed world could Rush flee to if he was indeed serious?Excellent job Shovel Ready. You have stated the obvious. Now let me clarify... WHERE in the developed world is he going to go to find health care that isnt "ruined" by a socialist approach? His chosen destination of Costa Rica already has the same approach he'd be fleeing from.Thank you Emporer has no clothes for reminding me that somehow creating insurance exchanges that allow people to purchase from private companies across state lines is a "government takeover" of health care... somehow. Could you direct me to a link that shows which bill you're talking about? The current legislation's main provision is the creation of insurance exchanges to allow freer competition between insurance agencies. more

Open Question: Excel: Rank across multiple sheets?

So i have a work book with about 60 sheets in it. I need to rank data from the same cell in each of the sheets. I wrote this and pasted it into each of the sheets but it isn't working. Its my first time using excel. I've figured out most of it but this has me stumped. This is what I pasted in each sheet to find the rank of the number in the cell of that sheet. =IFERROR(RANK(N14,'181':'3419'!N14,0),"NA") Error code to deal with no values before numbers are entered into any of the sheets. N14 being the cell of the number in this sheet I want to find the rank of 181 being the name of the first sheet, 3419 the name of the last sheet in the book. with about 60 sheets in between. !N14 being the cell in the rest of the sheets i want to rank against this one. 0 for ascending order. So I write RANK(N14,'181':'3419'!N14,0) Yet it doesn't work. What am I doing wrong? more

Open Question: To what degree are the Biblical standards of modesty purely cultural? Are there any/many absolute boundaries?

For example, some cultures are casual about near total nudity. As a result, the absence of almost all clothes is not seen as sexually provocative or arousing. So is it appropriate for Christians in such cultures to dress the same as everyone else? When discussing MODESTY the Bible tends to focus on avoiding expensive clothing and ornate fashions which encourage pride. Indeed, even some "secular" cultures (and cultures where Christianity is not pervasive) are happy to avoid clothing because they see it as motivating largely as a prideful gesture to show who is superior to others in rank or social group. Such societies see nothing sexually provocative about nudity per se. (Clothing and the absence of clothing can have very different meanings from those of our own culture, for example.) So what do you think? Does the Bible establish any ABSOLUTE standards on how much of the male and female bodies should be covered by clothing? Or is it simply a standard of avoiding that which is considered provocative or arousing in that culture? (Keep in mind that anyone who has lived in a culture where nudity or near-nudity is common soon adjusts to it and finds it unarousing. Humans are very much influenced by operant conditioning. So when nudity does not get followed by sex, the association tends to break down.) more

Open Question: How can I improve my writing style?

Stan sensed that again. It made him feel like he desired to be evil to the point that killing would be pleasurable. He felt like he was being swallowed by an ocean of temptation. A dark aura grew out of his skin, and his body became more muscular; although he seemed to become stronger, his face wailed pain. Stan shouted. Trees around him waved as a night wind sliced through the maze of a lonely forest. The wind quickened. Stan’s eyes showed anger as the feeling increased its grip. Black angel wings burst from his spine. A man approached Stan in a black coat with similar wings, leaves crackling as he walked. The man stopped in front of the Stan. He said, “So, you must be the son of…” Stan couldn’t hear the rest. “Yes. That is I,” Stan found himself saying. “Return to the Demon Realm.” “Never.” From out of nowhere, the man summoned a rapier. Stan, too, saw himself summon a weapon: a scythe. Stan blacked out. The sun made the wooden classroom glow orange while Stan sat disinterested as a teacher droned. Wingless Stan stared outside to quiet streets. “Stan,” the teacher said. No response. “Excuse me, Stan.” Stan faced at the teacher, “I’m sorry.” “Get on track, please.” The boy nodded, and then the teacher walked away to continue the lecture: “As I was saying, although the technique looks hard…” The student peeked to his left and saw a male sucked in the lecture. That student’s eyes looked demanding. The door slammed open; to Stan, the room seemed to shake. “Sorry!” said the opener. It was a girl. The class chattered, “Hey, who is that?” “Is that a new student?” “She looks fine.” “Tardy,” the teacher said, and then silence. The lecturer continued, “But perhaps I can excuse you. Welcome. This is Kina, class. Here, take a seat next to Stan, that spiky haired guy over there.” Spiky hair raised his hand. When Kina sat, Stan noticed a possible sword scar that went down her arm; it seemed permanent. “Now,” the teacher said, “Shall we continue?” As Stan was about to burst for the door after dismissal, someone halted him: “Stan, please come here.” The student slowly walked back, and the teacher motioned Stan to sit down. Stan stared at his teacher deep eyes. “Yes, Teacher Harold?” Stan asked. Harold said, “Do you know the event that occurred in the forest 5 years ago?” “Yes.” “I will give it in more detail: a body of a demon – this is what you know so far – was found. However, this demon seemed to be of a high rank in its hierarchy, and was immensely powerful. Just how this demon died – we’re not sure. “However, some people of our good town Orange claim they witnessed two flying demons fighting a few days before we found the dead one. The first was the demon that died – he wore a long, black coat, and had black wings. The other looked young, and had wings too.” Stan asked, “Why are you telling me this?” Harold leaned forward, “Do you know anything about it?” “No. I do not,” Stan snapped. Harold relaxed and observed at Stan; a silence followed. After a while, Harold said, “Fine. You can go.” Stan walked out without a goodbye. more
