    Drunk Person Question (Important)

    Why yes I stay at home every weekend because my HSC is far far far more important than having a social life. Where I'm from if you hook up with someone who is drunk, when your entirely sober, it's borderline rape - its a pretty sleezy thing to do IMO.

    Why are you hooking up with drunk people in the first place?

    Does God exist?

    In my study of religion course you have a thing called weak and strong athiesm. Weak atheism is not believing in God simply because you haven't really thought about it eg a small child would be a weak atheist but so would a lot of other people - they just have gone on intuition and said he...

    Is writing 1037 words in 50 minutes for an Economics essay acceptable?

    As a general rule a page hand written is around 250 words but it depends obviuosly. 1400 sounds a very reasonable amount quantity wise to me. I can do 1500 ok but thats cutting it pretty fine and theres no time for checking.

    Should I do 4 unit english?

    I will tell you now that it is time consuming if you want to do well. You have to have a very good work ethic if you want to keep up with all your other subjects and stay on top of ext 2 as well. Personally I've struggled this year to keep up with my other subjects as a result having only ext...

    Socialism,Facism,Communism,Nazism & Capitalism

    Jules is right - Gov'ts are pursuing material prosperity. To me in modern politics there is only one way to run a system (or it seems that way) with a combination of both socialism and capitalism. Through economic growth people achieve higher material wealth and this flows onto social benfits -...

    Does God exist?

    I was reading a bit of Bertrand Russel's stuff and came across his view on the existence of God which I quite liked. Essentially he said that talking to the average man on the street he'd describe himself as athiest but if he were lecturing philosophy to students he'd describe himself as...

    the US is not a democracy.

    America is a democracy - however i think its a legitimate argument to say that it is guided by the wealthy. But I think paradoxically it is also guided by the ignorant average joe - as with any democracy. Rather than making tough decisions which is ultimately in the long term best interest of...

    worth coming to ANU for law?

    I'm also interested in doing Law at ANU. Combined with arts and hopefully majoring in international relations and also development studies. I've got no real interest in landing a high paying job tbh. Just not a motivation for me. I'm pretty confident of getting 95 to get into ANU but I think...

    help! basic functions finding range

    a) is pretty simple: the range and domain are all real numbers since its a curve which starts low and finishes high. b) is a parabola with apex of (0,4) so the range is y>4

    Motivations of Marlowe in the Big Sleep

    Pretty simple really, I've got an assesment on 'the motivations and responses' of Marlowe in regard to his role in the Big Sleep while we are also asked to explore conventions within this framework. My list of his motivations at the moment is: - His own distinctive moral code - Investigation...

    Does God exist?

    If you believe that its extremely unlikely that God exists, that is not irrational because you can back it up with evidence. But you cannot back up that God definatively doesn't exist. Don't quote me on the weak atheism thing either, there's different categories for example some people are...

    Does God exist?

    In that case any conclusion we will make is merely a literary one on what atheism is. What you are describing is what I understand to be weak atheism, knowing is strong atheism or "true" atheism. Obviously you see no evidence for the existence of god, I see some evidence but nothing...

    Parliament Discussion Thread

    Dr 7%, as much as I dislike him, made an exceptional speech on the carers issue with the censure motion, one of the best speeches I've seen in some time, then he was juxtaposed with abbot who essentially just yelled for an extended period of time. On the state side, FFS, the labour party have...

    Capitalism or Communism?

    The arguments for protectionist policies are flimsy at best. If a country specialises its production in what it can produce the most efficiently, ultimately there are more goods to be shared between everyone. Tariffs, quotas etc. just protect innefficient industries making everyone (in...

    Does God exist?

    A good point well made... but there is no evidence at all for invisible fire breathing dragons, other than the truly absurd. If this were a criminal case in court, God being charged with existing, it would with all surity, at the very least go to trial considering circumstantial evidence...
