Re: Watson, Crick, DNA, Genius
My dad once told me that to be successful, you only have to do the work that no one wants to do.
I haven't really thought that much about guns, actually, but someone I know committed suicide with a gun just a couple of days ago. Young kid, maybe 21 or 22. Second person I've heard of who shot himself to death. I really doubt there would be so many suicides if guns didn't make it so easy. I think...

This must be where the need for approval from others comes from. We live in the ...

Re: hmmm
Sex is play -- you shouldn't read too much into it. Why not when we can learn so much about ourselves? Unless, of course, someone is aroused by very unusual things, like squishing bugs or roasting a pig or chewing on dog toys. Wanting to be kissed on the forehead is a rather tame fetish; at least i...

Re: Women believe they are inferior
There is little doubt in my mind that, deep down, women are convinced that men are superior to them in almost every way. It has always shone through in their feminist movement, in the way they have invariably portrayed themselves as victims of an oppressive patriarchal system, and it shines through...

Re: Reality
Well, truth can't possibly exist, because if it did, then all the Christians and crackpots and everybody would automatically become right! And we can't have that now can we? :-D
