zstang777 You just have to believe in your ability and your ability to avoid those situations. Things like that happen and it is unavoidable. That is just nature. But if something happens, you need to be prepared to handle it in the best way possible. Don't let one...

I have done some thinking lately about free will and I just want to hear other people's opinion. What do you think about free will? Do we have it or are we just stuck in an infinite chain of causation based on the events that...

zstang777 I would ask you to read my comment above. If you have any further comments please do! Like I said, I am not against that idea, it just doesn't make sense. I find it impossible to have free will when we were created, with God knowing what we will do according...

zstang777 Ok, I understand this point but (and I am most certainly not totally discarding faith and whatnot, just for clarity.) my issue with this approach if that God is said to know exactly how our lives will play out. He knows what we will do so, in my definition, is...

zstang777 I agree with you. I don't necessarily believe in the end point thing but I like the way they use it as a description for the pattern of the universe. You see patterns all around the universe that all seem interconnected to a bigger picture, that I believe...

zstang777 I am the same way. I spend my spare time doing nonsensical research about crazy but interesting theories. With that in mind, another one that has kept its place in my mind for a while is the Timewave Zero Theory. I won't even try to explain it but it is...

zstang777 It is said to be the pattern of the universe in a sense. It is a design that I am sure you have seen somewhere. It is used to explain how everything in the universe has some sort of circularity. It's difficult to explain in depth. It is very interesting...

zstang777 This is exactly my thought. It is near impossible to prove either side of the argument but if their are any other thoughts I would like to hear them. Upon further interest I found the Flower of Life theory which is pretty interesting too if you like...

Last week I had to have a minor operation. I was rather anxious about it and had been putting it off for about a year, but the time came when I had to face 'the knife'. I coped with this in two ways. First of all I prayed that all...

zstang777 This may be just my observation but I tend to view fear as irrational in most cases. I do have fears and whatnot and I hate thinking about them because they don't make sense but my point is this, Most people I have talked to agree that the worst thing that...

zstang777 Maybe you were predetermined to think and act just as you just stated? The events that have happened in your life caused you to say and do those exact things possibly?

zstang777 I think people become extra religious during certain events happening, in this case I think is was the election. Some people don't believe this has any connection but in the context of the election religion was a major factor. That is why people have gotten...

When I was in my early twenties, there was this little baby boy sitting on a stool, and when he fell, I did not catch him. Oh his mother was on the other side, and she was able to. Then just recently there was this little baby...

zstang777 I have heard of this type of thing many times before and shows like that make it seem logical but it's not. People try to rationalize things happening to them and things they can't rationalize they contribute to this idea of karma or even punishment by God. Do...

I have been thinking lately about happiness and what not, but I keep getting stuck. I know this is cliche but why do people just blow off the idea that life is too short to be sad. When I say sad or unhappy I generally mean...

zstang777 This is exactly how I feel about most of society. I am glad that someone feels the same as I do. Some people just insist on making themselves and everyone around them sad. I don't need people like that in my life. I want to be around positive and happy...

So I have a 93 cobra mustang (profile pic ;]) and I love it. 5 speed manual and rear wheel drive. That mixed with a ton of torque equals perfect drift car. So does anyone else have a perfect drift car? And if so what is it and do...

zstang777 It is very addicting but I think it is definitely a hobby worth looking into. It's almost like skateboarding. It's something you can add your own style to. It's awesome getting friends to go drifting and seeing how each other have different styles. You learn a...

zstang777 The horrible thing is that it is not my first time doing this! I have done this many times before! I guess I am just a stubborn person and I don't learn after the first time. I guess I should work on it more before it happens again... =]
