Philosophy

I read an article written by Ryuki that the Guyver has two of everything; namely eyes, sensor orbs, and megasmasher. At first, I didn't understand why the Guyver would need two of everything until I found this. Here is a quote from a site "Flatworms are bilaterally symmetrical, with "mirror image" right and left sides, probably a development that arose during the evolution of a front end - if an animal tends to "lead" with the same end all the time, it will move most efficiently if both sides match. A preferred front end also leads to cephalization, a concentration of senses and processors in the front. A preferred front end becomes an actual head end. In an interes…

Yo! I've been wondering about Zoalord teleportation, namely how it works and its limits. During the Mt. Minikami Incident with the Relic, the entire Council teleported from their meeting place at the Arizona Base all the way to Japan without suffering any loss of power, and yet, after that incident we haven't seen any of them utilize teleportation again, unless you count Yentsui's ability to cut open portals in space (which seems alot less efficient than simply porting to wherever you wanna go like Archanfel does or like the Council did when summoned by Barcus to confront Guyot). I mean, I thought teleportation was one of the basic abilities common to all Zoalords, ena…

Does anyone know if the control medal of Valcuria is made of the same substance as a normal one?

It is said that life force or chi animates our physical bodies. That or it helps animate our bodies. Any idea how something like that interacts with our physical bodies to animate them?

This may be a topic that has been covered before, but ive been thiking alot about the fear of death and how my own expirience with the fear has changed. So i wanted others opinions on it. Basically, i used to be Christian, believed in heaven, hell, but always entertained the possibility that there may be nothing after death. and that uncertainty between the three possibilities made me fear death becuase i couldnt controll what came after it. But i lost my faith recently, entierly, and now my views of death have changed drastically. Now, i dont fear it at all because its not the possibility anymore its a certainty. After death, there is nothing (so say my views, yours …

Ok, so before i begin talking, i want to first say, if you are religious, I’m not challenging what you believe as part of your religion. I'm not saying there is no God, and I’m not saying you should believe so either. Now, this is kinda long, but i feel there’s a huge area of discussion here, so please bear with me. So the topic is pretty self-explanatory, how do God and the Big Bang work with one another, or does one disprove the other. Some of you might know that last Sunday Discovery channel had a new show on called Curiosity that talked about this very topic. After watching it, it raised some questions in me that I’ve thought about before, but now have a little mor…

All this talk about God and Religion in my other thread reminded me of the time I was having a discussion with a colleague at my previous place of employment. The guy was great; he was great to talk to, very experienced about the world and had a military background. He was great company and I loved talking to him about anything philosophical and learned a lot from him. I can't remember what made us get onto the topic; he was born and raised Catholic but renounced his faith and became an Atheist through his personal experience. I asked him that fair enough, he doesn't believe in God, but what was his opinion on the Soul since both are pretty much hand in hand. He said tha…

This is something that I've been wondering. We all know that in Sci-Fi a force field and/or barrier of energy is the norm for most super powered beings or battle ships. But I want to know the science behind them. What type of energy actually makes up the field? How does it really work? Can a force field be used to actually deflect a barrage of missiles and energy blasts back at the attacker? Could said force field also absorb the attack as incoming energy ans revert it as an attack on the attacker but in a totally different form of energy? Also, what would be needed to generate a field of energy that could be used as a defensive countermeasure for the body? And do we h…

Do you think it is possible, that dinosaurs (specifically carnivors) possesed some bacteria in their salivia that killed their prey no matter what, like the komodo dragon? And if they did, would it have any signifgant change in the study and understanding of them? Would it change the way scientist look at them? Footage of Komodo dragons eating their prey after the lethal bite.

So those not in the know, I recently went out with a 16yr old girl. Shortly after getting to 1st base I began to think heavily on what chemistry might be brewing. You see, I'm 20 and she is 16. The U.S.A's Law of Consent states that anyone under the age of 18 cannot give legal consent to sexual activities and any violation of these activities can result in a statutory rape felony charge. Now things got a little serious between me and the 16yr old (We just made out a little don't worry) and a part of me wants to pursue the relationship further...but I know the consequence to that and that consequence is JAIL. So 3 options came to my mind as I drove home to my apartment…

Ok, so this is old news, that happened a couple weeks back. But I just can't believe that this happened in the States. I never thought I'd see the day that christians, or any religious group for that, would get arrested for going to a public event, trying to spread the word, and get arrested for it. Its really kind of shocking to me. But here's the video of the four who got arrested. Keep in mind this is not the whole footage, you can see it though on youtube.

what are your views on crop circles?

Just thought I'd ask some opinions regarding dealing with subordinates. I have this subordinate who is very, very poor in English. How poor you say? This is what that person said: "I just like to follow the status of supplier because until they will not entry in our store." I totally understand what it meant. But do you? I'm not really particular in punctuation, conjunctions or any of all that "Proper English" stuff. But the grammar is just plain terrible. We usually don't use English on a daily basis, but when it comes to dealing with foreign clients and customers, you cannot avoid but speak in English. Now imagine yourself talking to this person, will you be f…

It realy bugs me when i see these vegans or vegetarians who think they are so superior. they cherish the sanctity of life etc etc. but they show a remarkable amount of ignorance whilst claiming to be more educated. they fail to see the bigger picture. first of all, they say that animals should not be eaten because it is cruel to eat another form of life. they fail to realise they are discriminating against another form of life. they are suggesting that plant life is somehow less significant than animal life. they claim that animals suffer. first off, they have no way of knowing if an animal suffers like humans. much of an animals behaviour is instinctive, they…

This topic was made by a member from my own forum http://beyondword.forumotion.net/intelligent-debates-f15/has-the-west-lost-their-creativity-t321.htm#1778 He thinks that the media has lost its creative juices in movies.etc Discuss this

How do you think Cronos recruits potential candidates for Zoanoid processing? Do you think it is a free or forced decision of an individual? How does Cronos train potential Zoanoid candidates? What do you guys think?

Can Sho or Agito have Children? If so, would they be born with their own symbiote?

philosophically, you most certainly can argue with that. the uranus did shape and guide the development of life on earth. but to what degree? some aspects of humanity are certainly meeting the requirements of the creators goals, but there are many facets to the nature of humanity. not all of them are completely about what the creators wanted. for a race of beings that were supposed to be weapons, humans are surely capable of an awful lot of compassion. also, consider that guyver is meant to express the traits of the host and expand them. what happens with a human host? the host is freed from the control of the creators. is this a hint towards humans true purp…

Aptom can take over a being from a simple cell. How does his intelligence transfer over? The human brain is a large organ and surely memory capacity is dependant on size. I know about instincts being genetically programmed such as 'fight or flight' but surely something as complex as a full personality and a lifetime of experiences would be beyond the cells capacity to store, even cells as unique as Aptom. Or am I wrong?

Hi everyone, I was talking about this topic in my audio blog in which I still haven't found the right words to describe this. Okay, as a movie buff and a story buff since since I began to know how to write stories, I began to notice the difference between the movies made more recently and the ones of the yesterday like 10 - 20 years ago. Anyone who have the same feeling? Let discuss that here intelligently and see what's the difference and what changed.

Lets discuss about fear of technology... I think Technophobia is a normal reaction especially when you find that your future job is about to be replaced by a tin man or something. It may also remind us not to make machines so smart.

I was reading on M-theory a while back, and how some versions of it suggest how we might survive the death of our universe. How not only we might escape into an alternate dimension, but how we might possibly create a new universe with just and ounce of energy (all the positive and negative energy almost cancel out, leaving just an ounce worth). That's very interesting when I started reading the bible again last year, when some of these crazy theories start stirring some things that most would say come from science fiction. Things like this: If this universe were created, and -this- planet were added in later through a dimensional gate way... if it's core were a di…

So, I recorded the animal Planet special "Dragons: a Fantasy Made Real" about 3-4 years ago. I just started getting interested in it again, and watched the recorded film. They say that they have two real bodies, and have been studying them since that time. But, I know some people that say that it is a "what If" show, and just a hoax. But I've done research on this matter, and watched cast documentaries, in which they clearly say they have the bodies. "The Creature you thought could never have existed, actually has existed." I've seen photos of how they're suppose to be displayed in some museum, and how this would effect scientific history. Further more, i've read that whe…

I have had this on my mind for sometime now. I know some people actually think that we are going to drown because heat waves are melting the polar ice glaciers and we have to do something or we'll die! Ok I understand that, but what gets me is that people are blaiming vehicles and factories for the problem. Its like they are all pointing fingures and not trying to solve the issue. My brother has this shirt from hot topic, that has a picture of an ice pop melting with the sun in the background, and it says "I Hate Global Warming" thats pretty much how I see this issue. I have gotten in debates with some students about it, because we had an assignment to persuade me to beli…
