entrelaluz If one really wants to work abroad, there are ways to do this without too much "sacrificing." You have to plan ahead and look at the many options out there. I know some people are working for the government. After a few years they decided to apply for work...

Funerals and weddings should be abolished

Radicalpatriot @Radicalpatriot (665) • United States 15 Feb 07

Nothing more crass than a wedding, which is a self-indulgent, expensive and useless activity. Most weddings end in dirvorce, anyway, and why bother with celebrating such an occasion when it so often leads to unhappiness and...

entrelaluz I don't see why it always has to be a religion vs. science debate. First of all if you believe in God, i think you (or a least I ) would have to believe he is a scientist. It is not religion that has held science back but rather powerful people's...

entrelaluz I agree with the poster. Seeing things like that makes me uncomfortable and I wonder if that is in violation of the terms. If one wants to ethically recruit people, they can do so on their own blog spot or web page. I always think it is a bad idea to rundown...

entrelaluz I don't think homeschooling is a matter of good or bad. I think it depends on the family's wants, needs, and goals. A lot of people are quick to say that homeschooling makes people socially awkward, but there are a lot of socially-ill people who were...

what do you think? good idea/waste of time?

entrelaluz I think studying abroad is only a waste of time if one is a miserable person who is never satisfied, other than that it is great idea. It is the best education in life I have received. It helps you better understand the world and your own culture. It could...
