I'm thinking it could be the final nail in the coffin for the USA. The neutral Internet is our last form of leveling the playing field.

I keep waiting for things to start getting better, but they aren't...

I am really hoping Daisy Ridley will end up being the protagonist. Lucas has said, time and again, that Star Wars is the story of the Skywalker family. If she is indeed Han and Leia's daughter, this would continue the story in a reasonable manner. It would also give young females a heroine to really aspire towards.

Let'…

So, are we supposed to assume that Luke will not have a significant other? I was thinking that Gleeson was going to be his son, but without a mother around...

It appears some are angry about the plot deviation, and others are upset about having to witness a rape scene. If you are upset for the plot deviation, fine. But you are really upset about a rape taking place in a fantasy world based on our own medieval history?

Here we go again placing 21st century morals on…

If all beings are the result of an indifferent universe, and by existing within that universe they create meaning for themselves, it is not a natural event?

To me it is simple evolutionary theory. The universe starts out indifferent and wants only to expand. By expansion, it eventually creates life. And by creating…

The universe itself is indifferent, but it gives life to beings who may have a purpose. However, the second quote you posted makes no sense in the context of your overall point. If the universe is indifferent, there is actually nothing for humans to rise above and understand. And any effort to understand it would…

The only goal that makes sense for the Universe is to expand. We are talking about the entirety of existence. It cannot have the goal to overcome a great evil—it is evil, as well as good.

The Universe does expand to create beings like ourselves, however. And our purpose can be to make the Universe a better place, or…

I have come to the conclusion that I am a Taoist or Deist of some sort. But since that just makes people look at me like I'm crazy, I just say I'm a Methodist.

I think I accidentally conjured the ghost of Hayden Christensen into Return of the Jedi, but I can't seem to make him go away...

Looking back, the clues about the Mother's death were all there. She began her journey by losing a great love of her life, and she spent the show's entirety learning to live beyond it. In typical HIMYM fashion, she even received permission to love again from her deceased boyfriend via a not-so-subtle wind storm.

Of…

I definitely agree with you. However, I think it might be useful for banking and other types of information I would prefer to be more secure. If I have to try twice every so often to get into my bank's website, I wouldn't mind so much.

I seriously doubt I will use it to lock my phone, though.

Do you feel what happened to Pussy Riot is a uniquely Russian issue, or is it part of a broader problem regarding freedom of speech throughout the world's most powerful nations?

Abercrombie & Fitch is trying to protect its image, but the image they are portraying is one that only middle-class high school students strive to achieve—and those like The Situation who don't know when to start buying actual clothing in adulthood.

I really enjoy the "preppy" lifestyle, but it's far from what…

Well, that's why we had to win the Space Race.

I find this terribly troubling based on how awful the trailers are. But if the characters really do think about the consequences of their actions, it probably won't go over well with the targeted audience.

Well, all the best of luck on not getting her knocked up when it isn't favorable and all the more luck of getting her knocked up when you are both ready. If she is on birth control, you're technically "protected" should she use it on time.

Not sure, but apparently it's a "new" style of playing if this article is any indication.

I'm not sure if I am most confused by the fact that you are absolutely certain of your inability to father a child while not even being married, or your absolute certainty of your fiancee being the most fertile woman in the world while you apparently haven't had a hand in proving that.

The avoidance of death issue reminds me a lot of my Pokemon days of trying to capture the legendary birds. Fail? Shut that GameBoy Color off and start again.

While it's true that the only place to go from the top is down, I don't feel that Britain or Rome are really all that upset about their positions today. They seem to like it okay.
