What is your idol? Money, Pleasure, Fame, or Power? If your idol isn't clear to you, figure it out by thinking about which one of these four you'd give up first. The last one you'd give up is your idol. Care to expand on why this is your idol? Has chasing after your idol made you happier...

Last week I unexpectedly lost my grandfather. It made me think a lot about death at all and on various levels. What did you feel when you lost someone? How do you interpret death - as a process or short moment, in a biological or more spiritual, religious way? When you think about dead person...

This is not a blog, but it's here because what I want to discuss is personal: you and God. I'm here to probe (once again) about your personal relationship with God. I believe profound discussions are beneficial for the soul and I have not seen this place to be lacking of such, but I have not...

Hello. I just wanted to get some advice on university choices and options. The thing is that I'm sitting for my A-levels in 1 month and I'll get my results next year. I'll have to apply for university. I want to apply for an international one. Preferably in Canada. The courses are extremely...

I'll have to apply for university next year but I still don't know what course to choose. I want to do something in the finance or management sector. Any advice about courses available or prospective jobs?

I am actually taking this topic from another forum (Gamefaqs, as it turns out), but I thought it was good: why do we become what we hate? What does the question mean to you, and do people truly become what they hate? The best response I saw so far was:
