Do pets have a soul?
If a soul is the breath of life, and all life is in the hands of God, do pets have the breath of life, the will of God in them despite humans being given dominion over them?

6 AnswersMovies5 years agoWhy do you think there has been a lot of hype over "the Mandella effect"? Why is it happening?
My theory is that this is how physics work... This is the theory of relativity in real life! People make the internet become a reflection of reality, and millions take stuff online as proof... so lets say one was to experiment and change one small detail on behalf of google/etc. and millions see it and believe they just were mistaken in the spelling... then blam! after enough people see it, the spelling changes on the majority of books!
5 AnswersSociology5 years agoWhy do we use money when we could use fractions? Computers keep track of everything anyway.?
We are practically giving our resources away and will always remain divided and without decision of destroying this planet if we keep money. This is a logical, and reasonable way to find the "true value" in man hours.... where actual profit is that everyone will work less hours and get their life back... and have time to be creative. Why do we let anyone rule over us like slaves? Why do we believe this is freedom? Doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results is best described as insanity... things will only get worse if we don't stand up and make a big change... I hope you can see what I mean.
ex. the prices change on lcd screens based on inventory of that particular product. the more overstock produced, the less the cost per... but as less people r working and inventory shrinks, more hours will need to be worked to fill the storehouse... the rich will still be... and the economy will be entirely coop in shares and could be audited by anyone.

1 AnswerRap and Hip-Hop5 years agodo you feel oppressed by society and its expectations?
i like to make music that i hope will one day outlive me.. I work on making beats and studying music theory 6-12 hrs a day most days .. but it puts a strain on my relationships and i feel like i have less time to work on my music than i would otherwise.. now i know im going to have to give up on this for a while and spend more time on logical goals studying for a career.... bc my income is going to cause me to lose the girl that i love.... but it always feels like something is missing in my life without having the time to do what i want to i feel i will never get another chance in this world to make something that will outlive me.
I guess it is true that a pyramid is built from the top down... if it is meant to be i will have to find a way otherwise i will not be successful... the most difficult part is not knowing.... but still having the drive to keep going. will i spend my life trying to have the time to do what i do now?
1 AnswerPsychology5 years agowhat can I do to stop feeling so worthless?
i get told im worthless, stupid, etc. daily by someone either at home or at work, i always thought i was ignoring it but i cant help but feel that way after being told it by so many different people. Today i got out of work at 4 am and my girlfriend was upset at me because i didnt make enough money and i couldnt possibly be tired from my "loser job"... she wanted to go somewhere early in the morning... so i got a couple hours of sleep and gave her what money i had left so that we could have a good day together. by 5pm i was exhausted and slept till now... she yelled at me and said im a lazy loser and she is going to the movies and i ruined her day... she said i was supposed to move furniture when i was sleeping "being lazy" and cut the grass, well im alone and broke, she is out having fun with what is left of my paycheck.... i feel worthless now, and cant even see this situation clearly... someone please give their perspective on this.
2 AnswersSingles & Dating5 years agowhy is creativity murdered by modern society?
so logical, reasoning everything; living on limits in a tug o war... where i have an eye that sees infinite imagination you have put to rest for a career... where i had love friendship and community... you turned it into money. Why cant these people see!? God i wish they could then we would find a solution together. I hope its not too late, you think yourselves to be at the height of what a human society could be, but are like cavemen compared to what you may not ever see. I hear it, and its clear it not our fault but why do you leaders use us and the world and make so many live in misery... i just thank god for showing me.
25 AnswersPhilosophy5 years agoWhy is it as if I have a one way ticket to hell, Ending in death?
I cant get off of this ride, its funny how out of the billions of years before this life, It seemed so easy for me. I wake up every day and my first thought is death, then I think "no not again! Not another day here!". I just cant escape myself... i cant escape death... id enjoy the ride but it is mostly painful.... does life only continue to get worse before death? What type of sick evil is this world consumed by? If I didn't fear death, I would already be dead.... but it is not avoidable... i cant believe this is happening.. why does any of this temporary stuff matter in the least to me?
4 AnswersLaw & Ethics5 years agoWhat the hell is going on? Why is it like something isnt right?
Is it just me that feels this way? The whole world over moving without feeling... a zombified society that only hears its heart on the rare occasion. This cant be how the world has always been. Lets celebrate a world trapped in its mind... as if a solution can be reasoned. The picture of a stranger is never as a friend.... unless money is involved. Is money the only power that will bring us together? Or is money only the power of which most of us serve first? When did the eye become written before the heart? Its as if I know that I am blinded by an illusion, but not what I am blinded to.
3 AnswersOther - Social Science5 years agoWhat do you think of this short poem that someone I knew wrote?
If i'm dead and gone forever... will your heart still remember me?
If i died before i told you, would you know my apology
If i took a risk and go forever, will u keep the love of you and me?
If its too late to save me, will your heart remember me ?
I hope you can make your heart free and forget the love of you and me.
I hope after i'm gone, you find love as strong as we used to be
I hope when u cry because you miss me, that the pain doesn't last.
I hope you enjoy your life because it goes too fast
Dont dwell on what we had, life is too short for that
just remember ill always be with you, i never want you hurt that i cant always be there.
When it happens let me go even when you wish i were there.

3 AnswersPoetry5 years agoWhy is pot still illegal?
So many people sell it and grow it, its insane... yet despite its popularity, alcohol, cigarettes, perscription and. Otc meds are the legal government choice. If there were a vote, i bet more people than not would vote for legalization. Unfortunately its believed that weed being illegal may have its roots in historical racism... is it right to keep it illegal if the basis of it becoming illegal were racial? Does it make sense to make a plant "illegal"? Does "in God we trust" make sense on our money if we can not trust the plants believed by many to have been crated by God? It seems to me the truth is closer to "in political powers as god we trust and obey".

19 AnswersReligion & Spirituality5 years agoIf the "all" is one, why do the many appear separate, and in the center of their own reality (if all of reality is one reality)?
From my perspective, i see the inside of my (the?) mind, and the outside world... one appears to be seen only by me (at least where in the mind that I am observing appears to be known by this body alone) ... the other seems to be seen by all (but in a different location, through a different body... so all in all not at all the same). If the all is whole, As one... then am I observing through this body only by chance of progress through the all? The ideas in my mind follow a law that I can not understand... so why is there this part calling "I ,ME, MYSELF" and refusing to see what is right before itself... but says it sees nothing but of this mind and body? It says "that is only darkness", "i am different than all of nature, unique!", "there is an answer, question according to the law of your mind and find the answer"... but the questions only bounce my mind off its walls (?).
5 AnswersPhilosophy5 years agoCan money make life more enjoyable, or is it the hard work that we enjoy in life?
I just bought a Rolex air king, and i like it a lot compared to the other watches that I have owned. I had to save money for a long time to buy it, but I plan to keep it the rest of my life.
I could see someone born into money buying a Rolex and thinking nothing of it, but for me it took a lot of hard work and planning to get the money together for the watch that I wanted. I think that Rolex makes beautiful watches despite the many who hate on them; i'm sure that most people like to have nice things that they can look at and say "hey, i did a lot of work to earn this, and it payed off finally!". After years of just getting by paycheck to paycheck, its nice to be able to afford to buy nice things... instead of working full time and having nothing left after expenses.
Can money bring joy to life, or is money not earned worthless for bringing joy in life? I'm unsure of what makes me happy, the success of my goal, or that I could buy what I wanted. I don't know if the watch would mean as much to me if i was just given the money. Do we enjoy the hard work that we have done even more when there is something to show for it, even if its only a reminder to yourself?
3 AnswersPersonal Finance5 years agoDo we see others as we ourselves are?
If I assume that we assume that each of us is a conscious self, am I also assuming a proof to come of this as absolute transparency in such matters? One of the first questions that I remember having was "how do people know who eachother are?". But being so new to life , how could I have anything to compare to? Yet I did, but I can no longer remember from where I came. It is easy to forget... the physical projection of my thoughts always seems to only be interpreted in a skewed reflection by others....but now almost out of habit, I also interpret as I assume others to be... how do I see things as they are without assuming a false reality? How many people live in their Illusion of a shadow of their own doing?
1 AnswerPsychology6 years agoHow should I explain why I got fired from my last job in an interview?
I get asked why i got fired, and say the truth, I messed up on my work and damaged customers vehichles, and violated the attendance policy. They basically decide then and there I'm not getting hired, or they ask why there are 6 month employment gaps, and I explain I was homeless and didn't have a job for one gap, and couldn't find one for the other. The only time it looked good was when I used only my employment history from 2013 to now, and explain I left my job to prepare for college. Although it sounds good on and is true, I feel like I'm a liar for not telling everything in an interview.
