Is it only because he is -- very handicapped?

Living in Europe, the scene here is very contradicting: most handicapped people here are 'asked' (more-or-less) to be helped to die soon -- you know, costs etc... (just like with Hitler, only in a more-modern version...)

Could anybody here please bring some credible experience from this field? You know, just like the Christians, who are able to report even daily experiences (see Medjugorje).

I never ever heard of anything less proven than parallel universes in my whole lifetime.

Will he be able to find a way to communicate to us?

That would be really ingenious, because all of the rest is only opinion, and opinions are all and always questionable...

I don't understand you people.

If it were some business, we would care much much more, and this says it all about current priorities in "modern" society.

Future generations will write about current society: "They destroyed themselves by starting to hate, inside of the most atomic value in human society: The Family..."

There are lots of possible candidates for it, but communism ruined it all in China.

Anyway, left are:

1) Africa (don't underestimate it, it could grow much faster than any other country, iff it only could free itself from all those nasty colonialism consequences...)

2) Europe, united with all of its parts (and I mean especially the eastern ones)

3) Middle East + India; may seem strange (to some of you), but there you can find the top of the top of human-brewn Culture -- no other region on earth can beat this.

America, you have to "die" (read: take the last place on earth for some decade), because it was you trashing whole world in this financial disaster. This is not popular, so you people will not agree -- the same as children never agree when it comes to take some bitter medicine...

Anyway, believe me or not: you English ones are certainly the most ignorant in culture anyways; all of non english folks around the world would agree on this...

In English, even the most stupid thoughts sound right, just because of the language-culture itself.

So, it would certainly be very exciting to have e.g. a perfect programming language, expressing itself in say Arabic or Hebrew; but, on the other side, computers and real intelligence (or: AI and Real Human Intelligence) are so far away from each other, that it really doesn't matter how 'stupid' the programming-language-language is...

HN should have been written in CL.

Nobody can prove the Big Bang theory without-a-doubt: we only could rise theories against it, or bring facts against it, but it will stay an unproven theory forever, very similar to math theories: you can't prove them without-a-doubt, you only can give it credit currently, and because there hasn't been found any counter example yet.

The causes are very simple to describe: our (temporary) so successful economic system didn't follow many moral rules. And now we are all (the responsible and non) forced to pay for that (silly) mistake.

You may not agree with me, but I'm convinced that this will be the summary of our current situation, reviewed in about 50 years.

It's like eating straw all day long: at the end you are full of nothing (really important).

Now I'm not sure if up-vote or down-vote...

(...and will it be eternal?)
