paris10: The AA ( I personally prefer Black American) are lovely people but violence within its youth is taking away the victory marches the likes of MLK et al died to preserve. AA were meant to possess and retain within them the rich African heritage and culture brought to America by our forefathers, but no, they instead invented their own way of life... a life so negatively impaired by the new crops of the so called "role model" the music industry breeds.

Bullseye.

Double post.

Gang related's cancellation was expected. The once promising TV show somehow tapered off mid season and became a drag to watch. Unlike The Blacklist, all angles had already been explored, no more secrets, and thus by laws of elimination, no more tangible suspense. The fault of the writers, I suspect. This lull in the series affected the ratings significantly causing it to drop exponentially, invariably making the TV show one of the lowest rated TV show ever produced by FOX. The next process became inevitable: eventual cancellation. Adios motherflecka.

Inasmuch as I'm a fan of DC comics, I'm disappointed with this show just like I was disappointed with "Smallville." Both are poor representation of the comics. "Smallville" was a total fvckup, and "Arrow" is currently toeing similar lines.

"Arrow" made Marvel's crappy "Agent of P.U.S.S.I.E.S" seem almost like an epic TV show in comparison, and we are very much aware that the later is crappola redefined.

Elektra: Basically a story that follows a female assassin by the name of Elektra whose weapon of choice is a pair of sai. The protogonist was played by Jennifer Garner (Also notable for a lead in "Alias" TV series). She did all the stunts herself, no body double.

Misogynist2014: Competition! Competition! Competition! Tell me something I've never heard.Are American woMEN Australian woMEN Canadian woMEN not competing with one another?Are they anywhere near their MEN?If not for favorable laws,men would still dominate just the same way MEN dominate in Nigeria.
When you talk of EQUALITY ,you confuse it for EQUAL OPPORTUNITIES.I can tell you that physically,mentally,socially&mentally.MEN & woMEN are in no way Equal!
Equality is a fallacy,something that destroyed the western way of life and have left in it sexual perversion,divorce,abortion & surprisingly,women also want to be able to remove their tops in public .That is some of the disadvantages of all this rights group as they have made women think that they are naturally deficient and inferior and need to behave like MEN and compete with MEN instead of fellow woMEN.Follow #womenagainstfeminism on twitter for more on this :O

You need help. From your post, I can correctly deduce that you're not in complete control of your mental equilibrium. Arguing with you would be debasing myself to your ignominious level. Adios.

Have read all the arguments flowing back and forth in regards to Saudi Arabia. Well, here's my own two pence.

Saudi Arabia is a country that thinks women are prized "properties" to be kept and cherished, very similar to how one hides his jewelries in his private safe when he's not around. Women are not allowed to go shopping unchaperoned, ride in public transport filled with men, drive cars or any mode of transportation, vote, marry a man of their choice, make their own decisions, the list goes on and on...

Women reserve the right to go toe to toe with men. They are human beings too, and mustn't be subjected to the same treatment one showers on a beloved pet. Women are not pets. They don't want you to treat them like "queens", rather they want to be given the opportunity to compete with men in a gender equality oriented environment.

I read somewhere that the Saudi Govt had finally caved in to the outside pressure, and a referendum will be passed in 2015 giving their women the civil right to vote and drive. I hope it's true because, at this time and period, women should be competing with men in everything, rather than be treated like a prized cattle.

macof: Supernatural What's all this about supernatural?.what is supernatural and what makes it different from natural.

Because as I know all things are Natural, because you can't explain it doesn't change that fact
Btw I've been trying to explain afterlife since so I don't know why you call it supernatural

Afterlife is within the auspices of the supernatural.

macof: And what stops a maggot that dies before it metamorphosed into a fly from getting an afterlife??

As long as you have life, the moment you loose it and begin to experience something else, that's afterlife
I don't believe in heaven, and I believe in reincarnation so don't worry about billions of mosquitos

Lolz. Imagine that I tell you this story:

-A man was sitting in a cave minding his own business.
-A very bright flash of light appeared.
-A voice spoke out one word: "Read!" The man felt like he was being squeezed to death. This happened several times.
-Then the man asked, "What should I read?"
-The voice said, "Read in the name of your Lord who created humans from a clinging zygote. Read for your
Lord is the most generous. He taught people by the pen what they didn't know before."
-The man ran home to his wife.
-While running home, he saw the huge face of an angel in the sky. The angel told the man that he was to be the messenger of God. The angel also identified himself as Gabriel.
-At home that night, the angel appeared to the man in his dreams.
-Gabriel appeared to the man over and over again.
- Then, one night about 11 years after the first encounter with Gabriel, Gabriel appeared to the man with a magical horse. The man got on the horse, and the horse took him to Jerusalem. Then the winged horse took the man up to the seven layers of heaven. The man was able to actually see heaven and meet and talk with people there. Then Gabriel brought the man back to earth.

What do you make of this story? If you have never heard the story before, you may find it to be nonsensical and rightfully so. But you need to be careful. This story is the foundation of the Muslim religion, practiced by more than a billion people around the world. The man is named Mohammed, and the book is the Qur'an. This is the sacred story of the Koran's creation and the revelation of Allah to mankind.

Despite the fact that a billion Muslims profess some level of belief in this story, people outside the Muslim faith consider the story to be imaginary. No one believes this story because this story is a fairy tale. They consider the Koran to be a book written by a man and nothing more. A winged horse that flew to heaven? Seriously?? That is imaginary, as is reincarnation.

Double post.

macof: first sit down and think through consciousness, the statement makes all the sense in the world

A lifeless body still has consciousness, I didn't say sentience.
Sentience is just a high level of consciousness

Error... Error... Error... Error... Error...

I need that shìt you're smoking, bro. Shìt seems real.

macof: it seems you don't know the meaning of miracle. Because everything is a miracle not just life.

Do mosquitoes get an afterlife? Clearly not. Think of how many mosquitoes have lived and died over the course of millions of years. No one imagines heaven being full of septillions of everlasting mosquitoes. I could be wrong though.

macof: Lack of oxygen to the brain and body triggers NDE, now this is just for a short time, ok maybe not short but temporarily
Death is a permanent case of lack of oxygen to the brain and body leaving you to a long (probably infinite) period of The experience of NDE
Now tell me if that's not afterlife what is??

I'm well aware that NDE is not a direct proof that the concept of an afterlife is imaginary. However, it is a direct proof that the NDE (which many people use as "indisputable" proof that God and eternal life exist) has no supernatural meaning. We can scientificaly prove NDEs to be chemical side-effects rather than "a gateway to the afterlife."

macof: The big bang is a result of Consciousness,in essence the physical universe is born out of consciousness. So you can't say this consciousness is a byproduct of the human psyche when it is intact the source.

Maybe when you understand what consciousness is you would take this topic differently

I understand consciousness just fine. The consciousness is neither ethereal nor spiritual.

Let's start with a bacterium. Does it have a consciousness? A bacterium is a cell membrane filled with a variety of molecules. These molecules react together in different ways to create what we call life/consciousness.

So what about humans? The human body is nothing but a set of chemical reactions. The chemical reactions powering a human life are no different from the reactions powering the life of a bacterium, a mosquito, a mouse, a dog or a chimp. When a human being dies, the chemical reactions stop, the consciousness ceases.

-Consciousness is a byproduct of the human psyche as a result of chemical reactions.

-When the chemical reactions cease, you die. That's the end of it.

macof: 2. Consciousness is let loose at the advent of death, living the body with so little consciousness that you call it lifeless

A body left with little consciousness at the period of demise and at the same time in a lifeless state is a scientific impossibility. The dictionary defines "Lifeless" as dead or apparently dead, hence, something that is "apparently dead" couldn't possibly be left with the remnants of consciousness, however negligible.

When you sit down and think it through using your common sense, the statement makes no sense. It's the kind of reasoning a sane person can call "delusions of grandeur."

Apatheist: I agree with you; science will soon prove the existence of Santa Claus
Then our Lord, The Flying Spaghetti Monster.

You beat me to this. Bravo!

alexleo: You still dont get it. What science cannot prove today, it can prove tomorrow. Except you are not being honest that science is infinite.

Dude, you're not paying attention. When you put the concept of the afterlife under a scientific microscope, what you would come up with is the fact that the mere notion of it is utter fiction, a pure fabrication.

Science deals with facts, things that can be proven or seen. Things that can make sense to the human perception. Unless you can prove all multicellular organisms possess "souls" that can somehow transforms themselves into another dimension whenever their physical bodies stop functioning, then your logic is baseless, a reasoning borne of "superstition" and "sentiments."

Science is infinite and with strong intolerance towards the unreasonable. This is necessary. Why? Imagine that we have a conversation one day and I say to you, "I believe in the 'gerflagenflopple'. You cannot prove that the gerflagenflopple does not exist, therefore it exists." You can see that this is ridiculous. Just because I have invented something out of thin air does not mean that its non-existence is suddenly unprovable. There has to be some evidence that the gerflagenflopple exists in order to assert its existence. Since there is not, it is quite easy to say that the gerflagenflopple is imaginary.

Science deals with facts. The concept of the afterlife is not factual, and thus doesn't apply. Case closed.

cao: Not once, but twice.
The first time - I went "Hey, it's a new show, they don't know any better."
The second time - "Die you frakking toasters!" And other less user friendly words. Seriously, it felt like a personal insult. I was contemplating witchcraft to bring Helena to life, just to send her to the Emmy voters...

It's all politics. Perhaps, It had something to do with BBC America being relatively new in the American Television scenery. The major players and veterans always getting more precedence than the newbies and all that...

alexleo: You are not being honest. You said that science and discovery are infinite, and here you are drawing conclusion. You still can't be sure. It is not yet over until it is over. Since discovery and science are not yet over then you can't say for sure.

The concept of the afterlife is a "superstition" when you apply the cold hard logic of science. After you had examined, calculated, and separated your thesis, the conclusion that the notion is a mere fabrication is inevitable.

In other words, the concept cannot be scientifically proven. In fact, that in itself is a discovery. Therefore, it's conclusive... until it can be proven otherwise. The laws of infinity weren't affected, at all.

Thanks for the mention, cao. You were absolutely right about Orphan Black and the idiocy of the Emmy voters. Tatiana Maslany getting the snub was like a punch in the stomach.

Kezifils, thanks for the kind words, it feels good to be appreciated.

alexleo: So you can't say for sure that there's no afterlife.

Think back to when you were a kid and you realized that Santa was imaginary. As soon as you knew it, it was obvious. Reindeer cannot fly. A man cannot slide down chimneys. There is no way for one little sleigh to carry all the toys for all the kids in the world. Etc. It is obvious that Santa is make believe. That's discovery.

In the same way, it is obvious that human beings are big, walking chemical reactions. When the chemical reactions cease, you die. That is the end of it. No afterlife.
