RomanceHow Porn Ruins Relationships by argon500(op): 8:22am On May 06, 2017
When the topic of porn is mentioned many people get defensive. Those people try to defend porn fiercely as if a part of them feels guilty for it and is trying to make them feel better.

I agree with you that right now there might not be any kind of evidence that porn can be harmful on a physical level however when it comes to the psychological state porn can be extremely harmful . Apart from the bad psychological effects which includes guilt, shame, disappointment and even feelings of inferiority porn addiction can also ruin relationships and force you to remain single.

The sexual drive is a powerful source of energy and motivation. As a result of the sexual drive people feel like interacting with the opposite sex. This sexual drive motivates people to talk, get to know each other, get married and ultimately have sex.

Now the problem with porn addiction and masturbation is that they always force the person to waste that sexual energy on nothing thus leaving them with no energy to pursue real relationships.

When you do not watch porn you will become extremely motivated to get into a relationship with someone. If on the other hand you watched porn then your brain will be taking a short cut to reaching the same goal and as a result you will lose all motivation to pursue real relationships.

Am pretty sure you noticed that after watching porn or masturbating you feel tired, exhausted and unmotivated to do anything. It's just the fact that you got rid of a tremendous amount of energy and exhausted your brain's reward circuits for nothing.

watching porn results in the release of excess dopamine in the brain, the chemical responsible for seeking rewards, and as a result the reward seeking mechanism in the brain is overstimulated. This is why you feel lazy and unmotivated after watching porn.

Had this tremendous amount of energy was saved you would have been very successful with the opposite sex since you would have had a very powerful amount of motivation.

Porn makes it easy for shy people and those who lack social skills to remain as they are without any improvements. As long as they can get a quick fix through that shortcut those people hardly get motivated to improve their life skills.

You might be thinking that all porn addicts stop when they get into a relationship but this is totally wrong. When a person gets addicted to porn they don't get addicted to sex but rather to the chemical substance dopamine that gets released in their brain when they watch porn.

As the person gets used to large amounts of dopamine real sex starts to feel less exciting , since it involves less dopamine, and as a result the person keeps watching porn even when they are in a relationship.

And as you might have guessed when a person discovers that their partner is watching porn the relationship can collapse. And even if that was considered OK the relationship would still collapse when both partners find that real sex is becoming more and more boring.

ProgrammingLearning coding by argon500(op): 11:04am On May 04, 2017
HTML is the language used to create the web pages you visit everyday. It provides a logical way to structure content for web pages.

Let's analyze the acronym "HTML", as it contains a lot of useful information. HTML stands for HyperText Markup Language.

A markup language is a computer language that defines the structure and presentation of raw text. Markup languages work by surrounding raw text with information the computer can interpret, "marking it up" for processing.

HyperText is text displayed on a computer or device that provides access to other text through links, also known as “hyperlinks”. In fact, you probably clicked on many, many hyperlinks on your path to this Codecademy course!

In this course, you'll learn how to use the fundamentals of HTML to structure, present, and link content. You'll also learn how to use CSS, or Cascading Style Sheets, to style the HTML content you add to web pages.

Stay tuned

Health40 Amazing Facts About The Human Body by argon500(op): 8:58am On May 04, 2017
How long does a human hair live for? What's the strongest muscle in the body? These questions and many other bizarre quandaries will be answered in this extra fascinating list of 40 amazing facts about the body you call your home!

2. The higher your IQ, the more you supposedly dream.

3. Facial hair grows faster than any other hair on the body.

4. The nail on the middle finger grows faster than the other fingernails.

5. Fingernails grow nearly four times faster than toenails.

6. The lifespan of a human hair is 3 to 7 years on average.

7. The acid in your stomach is strong enough to dissolve zinc. It doesn't destroy the stomach because the stomach walls constantly renews itself.

Education13 Rules You Did Not Learn In School by argon500(op): 8:46am On May 04, 2017
Here are some basic rules that children should be learning in school, but unfortunately don’t. Not all of these have to do with academics.

Rule #1: Life is not fair. Get used to it. The average teen-ager uses the phrase, “It’s not fair” 8.6 times a day.

Rule #2: The real world won’t care as much about your self-esteem as much as your school does. It’ll expect you to accomplish something before you feel good about yourself. This may come as a shock. Usually, when inflated self-esteem meets reality, kids complain it’s not fair.

Rule #3: Sorry, you won’t make $40,000 a year right out of high school. And you won’t be a vice president or have a car phone either. You may even have to wear a uniform that doesn’t have a label.

Rule #4: If you think your teacher is tough, wait until you get a boss. He doesn’t have tenure, so he tends to be a bit edgier. When you screw up, he’s not going to ask you how you feel about it.

Rule #5: Flipping burgers is not beneath your dignity. Your grand-parents had a different word of burger flipping. They called it “opportunity”. They weren’t embarrassed making minimum wage either. They would have been embarrassed to sit around talking about Kurt Cobain all weekend.

Rule #6: It’s not your parents’ fault. If you screw up, you are responsible. This is the flip side of “It’s my life,” and “You’re not the boss of me,” and other eloquent proclamations of your generation. When you turn 18, it’s on your dime. Don’t whine about it, or you’ll sound like a baby boomer.

Rule #7: Your school may have done away with winners and losers. Life hasn’t. In some schools, they’ll give you as many times as you want to get the right answer. Failing grades have been abolished and class valedictorians scrapped, lest anyone’s feelings be hurt. Effort is as important as results. This, of course, bears not the slightest resemblance to anything in real life.

Rule #8: Life is not divided into semesters, and you don’t get summers off. Not even Easter break. They expect you to show up every day. For eight hours. And you don’t get a new life every 10 weeks. It just goes on and on. While we’re at it, very few jobs are interesting in fostering your self-expression or helping you find yourself. Fewer still lead to self-realization.

Rule #9: Television is not real life. Your life is not a sitcom. Your problems will not all be solved in 30 minutes, minus time for commercials. In real life, people actually have to leave the coffee shop to go to jobs. Your friends will not be as perky or pliable as Jennifer Aniston.

Rule #10: Be nice to nerds. You may end up working for them. We all could.

Rule #11: Smoking does not make you look cool. It makes you look moronic. Next time you’re out cruising, watch an 11-year-old with a butt in his mouth. That’s what you look like to anyone over 20. Ditto for “expressing yourself” with purple hair and/or pierced body parts.

Rule #12: You are not immortal. If you are under the impression that living fast, dying young and leaving a beautiful corpse is romantic, you obviously haven’t seen one of your peers at room temperature lately.

Rule #13: Enjoy your youth time while you can. Sure parents are a pain, school is a bother and life is depressing but someday you’ll realize how wonderful it was to be a kid. Maybe you should start now.

Christianity EtcPrayer Without Action Is Powerless by argon500(op): 8:11am On May 04, 2017
1 Chronicles 16:11, Matthew 7:7, Mark 11:24

“Look to the LORD and his strength; seek his face always.” (1 Chronicles 16:11)

“Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door
will be opened to you.” (Matthew 7:7)

“Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have
received it, and it will be yours.” (Mark 11:24)

Prayer requires action. Today, I want to help you with a simple but powerful truth that could revolutionize your prayer life. So much of the time we treat our prayer life like we are rubbing a magical lamp and asking the genie inside for our wishes to be granted. Even mature Believers often fall into the trap of treating God like some kind of cosmic concierge who is there at our beck and call to fulfill our every whim and desire. The truth that I want to share with you today is that prayer requires action on our part.

When we pray, we are demonstrating our dependence upon God. We are saying to God that “we need you,” that “without you we can do nothing.” Prayer is also an act of faith. What is the use in praying unless you have faith there is a God who hears you and faith there is a God who can help you? So when we pray we not only demonstrate our dependence upon God, but also our faith in God.

The key moment comes AFTER we have prayed. What do we do then? This is the critical point where many Believers fail. Prayer requires action on our part. Too many who pray, fail to follow up their prayers with ACTION! They pray and seek God for a need in their life, finish praying, and then sit back waiting for God to meet their need. Is God able? Of course, He is God! However, never forget that we pray out of faith, and true Biblical faith requires ACTION!

If you are praying for God to heal your body, pray, but then ACT! Go see the doctors and specialists that are out there to help you heal. Go research what your health issue is and find the best people possible to help bring complete and total healing to your body. God heals in many ways and by far the most common way God heals is through human instruments called doctors. So if you need healing, pray, ask God to heal you, and then put your faith into action and do all you can in seeing your body healed.

If you are praying for God to meet your financial needs, pray, but then ACT! Seek out successful men and women and get their wise counsel. Sit down and put a game plan together to help you meet your financial needs and achieve your financial goals. God can provide for us in many ways, but His most common form of provision is through our hard work. So if you have financial needs, pray, ask God to provide for you, then put your faith into action and do all you can to see that your financial needs are met.

If you are praying for your marriage or for a relationship, pray, but then ACT! Seek out Godly counsel from your pastor or some other qualified Christian counselor. Get away with your spouse or the person you are in a relationship with and spend quality time openly and honestly communicating with each other.

The root cause of every marital and relationship problem I have seen in over 17 years of ministry stems from a lack of pure, honest, and open communication. So if you have a problem with your marriage or a relationship, pray, ask God to bring healing and restoration to your marriage or relationship, then put your faith into action and do all you
can to have a healthy marriage or relationship.

Never forget that it is God who is the One who will heal you, provide for you, restore your marriage or relationship, but God uses our faith in action. Prayer is not a passive exercise but an active one! We are active participants in God answering our prayers. It requires action on our part. It is God who is answering our prayers, but our faith requires us to be involved in that process. Just as James wrote to Believers that “faith without works is dead,” I tell you today that PRAYER WITHOUT ACTION IS POWERLESS!!!

I love you and care about you so much. Most people are far too passive in their prayer life. They pray and then sit back waiting for God to answer. No doubt there are some things we pray about that are completely out of our control and we must simply trust God to move on those needs. But much of what we pray about we have the ability to put action to our prayers. It is still God who is answering our prayers, but He is working through our actions.

It needs to be stressed again, we are not just praying out of dependence upon God, but out of FAITH in God. True Biblical faith requires ACTION on our part. If you really believe something, you will live it. If we truly believe God will heal us, or provide for our needs, or heal our marriage or relationship, or whatever the need may be, we will be active participants in seeing our prayers answered. God honors our faith. God is moved by our faith. God blesses our faith. We pray in faith,therefore, our prayers require action!!!
