What if there is not a god?, would that mean the human race is insane?

Even if there is no God, it doesn't change the fact that God serves a purpose in this world for us.  If we could reason that humans "made up" God, that doesn't mean that such a belief is necessarily bad or insane.  We also "made up" language, art and laws.  Since these are human constructions rather than any real, physical, objective things, does that make us crazy?  Certainly not.  Laws, art, and language all serve useful and legitimate purposes.\n\nGod also serves an important role in the world of men, regardless of His existence.  If you are a materialist atheist, it is still likely that you believe in the tenets of evolution; and if you hold such a belief and understand the theory, you should be able to understand that humans do not adapt in arbitrary ways, and they certainly do not expend the great amounts of energy we invest in our religions if such beliefs are detrimental to procreation and progeneration.  Quite the contrary; the high costs that can often come from religious beliefs must necessarily be counter-balanced by some greater benefit to such beliefs, elsewise religion would be selected against and eliminated.  Instead, theism is ubiquitous.  Hence, the belif in God serevs a purpose.\n\nEdit: DrAnders, you're dead-wrong.  Theists are, as a general rule, more abundant and genetically prosperous than atheists.  The simple truth is that to cease breeding is contrary to the nature of the brain.  the brain did not evolve for arbitrary purposes like astronautics; it evolved to increase the odds of progeneration.  If, as is common in atheists, you reason your way out of procreating, you are going against the natural purpose of the brain.  And we continue to see higher fertility rates in theists versus atheists.\n\nCheck your priorities and values--where do they come from?  What ultimate purpose do they serve?  It is the nihilist that is insane.\n\nBTW, the "opium of the people" line belongs to Karl Marx, not Mao.


mainWORRY: are you not aware WORRY is like a magnet witch attracts TROUBLE to those who give place to WORRY?

What dude?\n\nSeriously, I have always thought that Mainworry's answers were pretty much useless- but this question is just stupid.\n\nWorry most definately does bring trouble in the form of stress and unhappiness.  And if god's not worried, he's not paying attention.


give me your opinion on this matter?Its weird and it has bothered me for 3 years.I fgure it cant be heart?

Panic attacks often mimic heart attacks. That's why they can be so darn scary. But it's better to go to the hospital just to be sure. They would rather see you there with a panic attack than to have you second-guess and be wrong. Are you male or female? Often doctors don't take female symptoms as seriously because they think only men get heart disease. If you wake up in the middle of the night trying to catch your breath, you may have sleep apnea. That's when you stop breathing for several seconds and up to a minute. This can cause heart problems. So talk to your doctor about testing at a sleep clinic. (Do you snore?? That often accompanies sleep apnea.) I know it's frustrating to go to the doctor so often and to find nothing wrong. To learn more about panic attacks, go to the link below. You can also do a search on sleep apnea. If you think it could be panic attacks, there are medications you can take to control them... the SSRI class of medications. Talk to your doctor, or better, to a psychiatrist. That's a medical doctor with special training in emotional issues. They can diagnose conditions and prescribe appropriate medications. Good luck. You will be fine.


how does one get an ID from the Mexican registered consul?

Just go there, wait in line, show your choice of a real or a fake document (fakes can be acquired many ways, quite cheaply) showing you were born in Mexico, pay the fee and get the card...Just a few extra steps over buying one from a gumball machine in the front of the grocery store.

What kind of Memory (RAM) should I buy to upgrade my Pentium 4 with an ASUS motherboard ?

The type of memory to use with a Pentium 4 CPU is DDR memory. It comes in various speeds, but you should be OK with a DDR333 speed (also called a PC2700). These are available in 256MB, 512MB, 1GB and 2GB modules. You should be able to find 512MB for well under $100.00/ea.\n\nYour ASUS board should have at least 2 memory slots, so (2) 512MB modules would equal a full gigabyte of memory for under $200.00.

Are Christians insecure people? Why do many feel they need to go to poor countries and prosthlesize?

You might try putting yourself in their mindframe.  They believe they have the answers which will save them from eternal damnation, hell, torture and whatever else accompanies that belief.  If you knew you had this knowledge, and if you see there are millions of people in regions in the world where they do not know about this, you might feel you have a humane responsibility to help spread this information to save people.\n\nWhile I understand that impulse from a humanitarian point of view, I would fault them for not realizing there are hundreds of religions all over the world.\n\nDespite this some-what narrow minded view, missionary activities bring some benefits to a region;  often they work to build up infrastructure such as roads/electricity/etc.  In comparison, Christian missionary activities, which are humanitarian in nature, are far better than other religious actions.  A priest working in the jungles can do good for humankind, and is much preferable to detrimental forms of religious expression and atrocities that unfortunately tends to go hand in hand with religious fervor.


is it true that having sex cures migraine?

Yes and no.  Yes, sex cures some headaches.  People will often rush in to point out the disadvantages of being sexually active (pregnancy and disease, for the most part), but the fact of the matter is that sex has a number of health benefits as well.  People who are sexually active have more robust immune systems, lower blood pressure, higher self esteem, in addition to a few other benefits.  The fact of the matter is that most headaches are caused by stress and tension, and few things are better at relieving stress and tension than sex.  Migraines are often caused by weak or swollen blood vessels in the brain - and both directly and indirectly sex can help alleviate some of the pressure.\n\nClinically, sex increases your heart and respiratory rates improving the transport of oxygen in the bloodstream, as well releasing a lot of nice endorphins and helpful hormones.  \n\nFrom an experience standpoint- if you are in the middle of a headache sex will make you forget it for a short while, especially if you have an experienced and caring lover.  But the headache will return after the fact.  And severe headaches do cut down libido pretty quickly.


for  ladies only, do u feel weird or nervoues when you get your pap done?

How much money can you make before you have to pay taxes?

Hi, well I don't know about other states, but in Texas if you (dependent) make over $500.00 a year your parents can't claim you.\n\nAnd I think if you make less then $5000.00 a year you don't have to pay taxes.

Why do tax refunds take so long to process and what happens if a company that paid you has not filed taxes yet

The company who issued you the 1099 has to issue government versions of that 1099 to the IRS by February 28th. The best thing for you to do is what you did. If they gave you that 1099, you can bet they sent it in to the IRS as well, which means if you don't claim that on your income tax return, the IRS will catch it and you'll be up {you-know-what} creek. Who knows why it's taking so long for your return to be processed. Depending on when you filed it, they could just be really backed up. I filed mine really early and it still took several weeks. Hope that helps!


do ya reali lyke ur skool !! plz tell da true !!!?

Hello,\n      The answer is : No, I do not like school.\nIt's not that I am the class dunce or something, I am fairly good in studies. But I do not like school as it curbs the natural creativity of an individual and forces them to conform to the "general" standards. Lets face it, Marks can never be the reflection of true merit. Exams and tests do not tell how good you are, they are just and indication of how many of the questions that came in the test were known to you or you managed to guess correctly. \n      About my school life, its damn fun! Me and my friends play pranks on teachers, students, staff, whatever... sure, you get caught occasionally, but you cant learn to ride a bike, without falling down. Thats the only bit that keeps me going to school (apart from my parents).

Why is the Moon moving away from Earth ?

Two objects will orbit one another indefinately unless disturbed.  The man made satellites that return to earth orbit to closely and are so small, atmospheric drag and solar wind eventually cause their orbits to decay.\n\nThe moon is large enough are far enough out, these factors don't come into play.  The primary force now is tidal friction, which causes the orbit to slow, and therefore expand, by a fractional amount each year.  \n\nDon't worry about losing the moon, though.  The sun will expand into a red giant, swallowing both earth and moon long before this happens.

You saw Munich, the movie? What do you think the closing scene was there for?

I was brought to tears when I saw the twin towers at the end of that film. of course 9-11 is an emotional subject, but i was broken up more because of the huge significance and symbolism of the scene. the movie is a beautiful illustration of how violence only begets violence, and showing the WTC just showed how until this cycle is broken, that events of 1947 will lead to events of 1972 will lead to events of 2001. i will never understand why people keep thinking that the solution to 9-11 and other attacks is the same, ridiculously ineffective reaction man always comes up with.  it is like repeatedly throwing gasoline onto forest fires and insisting every time that it is starting to put it out.

Why has fairytales changed over time to adapt to society?

its the nouns in fairy tales that change.... i.e places, persons, things...but the meanings stay the same. Humankind since fairy tales have been around havent changed much. We still have the same wants, fears, desires, hopes and needs; and this is what fairy tales impart.  Good can come from bad... good is stronger that evil.... If you study them fairy tales from different ages will have many many underlying similarities.

Principally yes, lightning will split water, but not through electrolysis but because of the heat.\n\nAssuming your array of lightning rods will attract a lightning, you will need to transform that high voltage into the millivolt region you need for electrolysis, and keep it coming for quite some time since electrolysis is an equilibrium process. In short, you need to store electrical lightning energy, which is so difficult nobody (except Frankenstein :) has produced a workable solution.\n\nHarnessing the thermal energy of the lightning on the other end of the lightning rod would be tricky, too - if the resistance is too high, the lightning rod wouldn't attract the lightning, if it is too low, the thermal energy won't be released where you want it.\n\nStatic electricity discharges generally are unsuitable when you want a current, otherwise someone would have built generators using piezo elements long ago.


I found when I was taking prenatal vitamins my hair and nails grew extremely faster than before. I asked the Doctor and she told me it was due to the increase in my B vitamins and Iron. The link will state you cannot make your hair grow faster but you can increase the strength with B vitamins... but it worked for me! Good luck!

Why is "He" letting us destroy ourselves?

In the realm of Christianity it is called freewill.  All people must be given the freewill to either walk the path that is easy or to walk the path that is hard.    He gave us freewill so that we could come to Him on our own, otherwise we all would be puppets on strings and this defeats the purpose, as it requires no faith no individuality to be a puppet.  The world is the way it is because of sin, not God.

i have a cremish discharge with blood in it. my lower abdomen also hurts, there is this burning feeling.?

Get yourself to a doctor! Please don't let shyness scare you off. There is probably a free clinic in your area and I suggest you take advantage of it. If not, try a Planned Parenthood. You say your discharge has blood in it? While it's normal to have discharge between periods and even something called breakthrough bleeding, having discharge with blood and pain is not normal.\n\nPID(pelvic inflammatory disease), gonorrhea(an STD), yeast infection, bacterial infection, ovarian cysts, bladder infection, endometriosis, even cancer can cause your symptoms.\n\nPlease please go to a doctor. Your reproductive health and you life could depend on it. Good luck

Should women who get married take the last name of their husband?


The 5th amendment was written so that you couldn't incriminate yourself.  So to plead the 5th means I won't answer on the grounds that it would be harmful to me.  (Basically now it means I won't answer because I'm guilty of whatever you're asking me!)

Why US support israel (who ignores more of international rules)?

Israel and the USA are buddies because they back each other up. The USA has some support from moderate Islamic countries in the Middle East. \nI think its a damn shame that Israel and the US can do what ever it likes to defend itself. There are international laws and the military "rules of engagment" that Israel and the US like to ignore a lot (like the terrorist). \n\nIf Israel and the US kill innocent people to kill or capture terrorist then these countries are NO BETTER than the terrorist who attack and kill innocents to attack US and Israel interests in the Middle East. \n\nI do not support the horrible methods that terrorist use but I see NO difference between what the US, Israel and terrorist. \n\nExample:\n\nIf a terrorist blows himself up and half a city block to take out a US Embassy or an Israel market place and he kills and wounds several civilians then he is evil.\n\nIf a US or Israel destroyed a car with a missle (whatever) that a terrorist was driving and this action results in the death and injury or innocent cilivians nearby then it is also an evil act. There is no difference what-so-ever between thier tactics of attack/defense.\n\nWe and Israel need to obey the rule of international law even when fighting terrorists otherwise we are like the terrorists we fear and hate.

I would say, learn everything there is to know about your job.  Make it so that you are the one your boss always relies on to do his work.  Then take all of that experience that you have used them for and find yourself a better job.  When you hand in your two week notice, your boss will freak out at the thought of not being able to find someone like you.  They'll start making you all kinds of offers so you wont leave, but you keep saying "NO".  It's a great feeling.

how can the rich countries help the third world?is there any hope for the Philippines?

Why should "rich" countries be helping the "third" world?\nWhat makes you think they even could be of help, since many arent able to solve their own problems?\nDo you feel like there are only poor people in 3rd world countries? If you want to go by numbers I can assure you there are more poor people living in the US than on the Phillies.\n\nWhich leads to the assumption that you are talking about achieving "western" standards.\nWell heres the news for you: Western standards are WESTERN standards.\nYou got your own standards to be living by, stop trying to adopt other peoples lifestyle - on borrowed money.


For how many years after a couple being seperated is considered free of marriage by america law?

I'm afraid that you still have to get a divorce; But being apart that long and him being in a different country makes it a lot easier. Contact a lawyer in your city and he can run an add in the local paper. Then you can divorce without him even signing the papers. I know this works as I myself have done it.


What are the viral diseases in Philippine aquaculture? Their causes, diagnosis and control?

There are many.\nIt depends on what species you are farming.\nFish can get a number of nasty pox family virus when in the close confines of aquaculture. RSIV The red seabream Iridovirus is another nasty one. Clams and other molluscs are susceptible to Norwalk virus and many others.\n\nit would help if yu could narrow down the type of aquaculture and the species you wish to know about.\n\nhttp://rfdp.seafdec.org.ph/publication/paper.html  has some good journal mentions.\nhttp://www.daasix.org/committee/executive_committee.htm  is the definitive source on this topic.\n\nCauses: Often over crowding, stress and wrong nutrition. Diagnosis, often visual, but also poor growth, poor breeding. Control. Medication sometimes works, but is not the answer. More infrastructure and monitoring helps.

what do you people think about all the illegal immigration issues?

Mexican Nationals, like many immigrants \ncome to this country to improve \nthier lives and to help their \nfamilies back home. Legal or \nnot the \nemployers they work for, take taxes \nout of their pay. Again taxes \nhelp the US.\n\nLegal or not most immgrants cannot \nqualify for public assistance \nprograms for many reasons. \n\nTherefore the people out there who \nthink that immigrants are draining \nthe system need to stop watching Fox \nNews and read research papers \nand look a governmental spending \nrecords and history.\n\nIllegal immigrants don't apply for \npublic services because they \ndon't want to get caught by the \ngoverment and get deported. \nImmigrants like most poor people \nonly go to the hospital when \nthey are really sick or its too \nlate. This is just a flaw in the \nsystem. \n\nIts the same with education most \nreccent immigrants do not \nsend their kids to public schools. \nI hate to say that America \nis stupid country for funding \nmost of it schools by property \ntaxes. Other countries around \nthe world use several methods \nof raising money for their schools.\n\nWhat is really  happening in our \ngreat country is not immigrants! \nIt's our political leaders! \nImmigrants are not the sole cause \nof what is bad in this country!\n\nFor one, they are the ones out \nthere busting their asses to make \npeanuts. They work all the jobs \nthat Americans would cry and \ncomplain about if they worked \nthose types of jobs (picking \nproduce in the fields, \nconstruction, and other hard \nmanuel labor)\n\nWe are all immigrants (unless \nyour a Native American) \nand America wouldn't be  what is \nnow, without immigrants, \nlegal or not!\n \nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Immigration_to_the_United_States_of_America\n\nYes...there are bad immigrants who \nbreak the law (steal, rob, \nmurder, drug dealers, illegal gun \ndealers and such) \nBUT most are hard working people \nwho want a better life. \nI have benn around INS for quite some\ntime now and It is irrational how people that \nactually know about immigration \nlaws, such as federal immigration \njudges, immigration lawyers and \nlots of people that work for the \nINS are in favor of immigration as \nlong as it is \ndone legally, but the goverment and congress\nare not makin any progress on laws that\nwould promote to legalize illegal aliens\nsuch an amnesty, but yet the congressmen \nand the president are \ndiscriminating illegal immigrants and \nblaming them for draining \nthe system, when they know that the \nactual cause of all the economic \nproblems here in the US is war on \nIrak that bush started a few years \nback.\n\nDo you people realized that he spent \n200 billion dollars on the Irak war \nalready, that is a lot more than \nanyone could expected, including Bush, \nand now you see on the news that \nillegal immigrants dont pay taxes and \nthat they drain the system, when Legal\nor not most immgrants cannot qualify for\npublic assistance programs, and \nthe real truth is that\nthere is more white people living \non welfare than any other minority, \nand that includes African-american, \nHispanic and Asian, \nIllegal immigrants do pay taxes \nwhenever they go to the store \nwhen they get their paychecks \nthey get a tax cut also, \n\nAnd can you tell me when do \nthey get those taxes back?  hardly \nnever \nbecause the majority of immigrants \ndont know how to declare their \ntaxes but there is also Illegal \nimmigrants that declare their \nincome taxes and that is completely\n legal just do some research on \nhow being an illegal immigrant \nyou still have the\nresponsability and the right to \ndo your income taxes just like \nanyone else livin in this country, \nbut no one has the time to look at \nrecords see for themselfs the real\ntruth.\nThe truth is that the \ngoverment is making once again the\nwrong choice or just looking\nto blame the immigrants because he\nspent to much money in the Irak war\nbut instead of spendi

Joke: What do you do if your Girlfriend Starts Smoking?


what do you think is the best urban legend that you heard?

The best one I heard goes as follows:\n\nThere was a man in Las Vegas, who was vacationing there. He was staying in this hotel near the strip. He was in the bar of the hotel one night, and this woman kept staring at him. She wasn't smiling, nor flirting- just staring at him. So, his curiosity got the best of him, and he went over and began to talk with this mysterious woman. They had a few drinks together, and ended up going to his hotel room together. \n\nThe next thing the fellow remembered was waking up in his bathtub in the hotel room. He was nude, and the bathtub was filled with ice. There was a note and a telephone on the toilet seat- the note read "Call 911 now, or you will die". \n\nSo he reached up, and dialed 911 on the phone. He explained how he was positioned to the operator, and there was confusion for a bit. But eventually, the operator asked him a wierd question- the operator asked him to check and see if he had marks on his back. The man in the tub did have marks, that he could feel with his fingers. \n\nLater on, they found out that the man had been apparently drugged by the strange woman. She may have put something in his drinks. When he fell asleep, some 'street surgeon' cut his back open, and removed one of his kidneys...evidently to sell the kidney on the black market.\n\n*I did some research, and it turns out that this urban legend was a made up story. It didn't happen in real life.


What chemicals are found in bottled water?

Bottled water is sold for human consumption. It must, therefore, be sealed in a sanitary container and must meet all applicable federal and provincial regulations for drinking water. \n\nBottled water cannot contain sweeteners or chemical additives and must be calorie and sugar free. \n\nThere are many different types of bottled water. The CBWA offers the following definitions to help you in your selection:\n\nSpring Water\nAccording to the current federal food regulations, spring water is potable water that comes from any underground source but not from a public community water supply. The spring water collected and bottled is considered natural water and must have all the same properties and be of the same composition and quality as the water underground. Normally, spring water is expected to contain fewer than 500 parts per million (ppm) of total dissolved solids (minerals).\n\nMineral Water\nRespects the same definition as spring water except that it is normally expected to contain more than 500 ppm of dissolved solids.\n\nDrinking Water\nBottled water that has been produced by distillation, deionisation or reverse osmosis. The water can come from a spring, or a public community water supply. Other suitable terms for bottled water produced by one of the above processes include “distilled water,” “deionised water,” and “reverse osmosis water.” These waters have no added minerals.\n\nCarbonated Bottled Water\nBottled water that contains natural or added carbonation. Soda water, seltzer water and tonic water are considered soft drinks, not bottled waters.

Can't liberals see illegal immigrants benefit business by cutting costs and hurt citizens by raising taxes?

I think the real concern is that they keep costs low by artificially deflating wages. Since they are willing to accept wages below that of the American worker, they have helped this country maintain one of the longest periods of wage stagnation since WWII. \n\nMany undocumented workers are also paid in cash, therefore bypassing any taxes. While some illegals who have fake identification pay taxes, since they do so at a lower rate than someone who would be paid more if they were not there, we actually lose tax revenue.

do you know who is mohammed the prophet(pbuh)??

BIOGRAPHY OF PROPHET MUHAMMAD (pbuh)\n\nDr. A. Zahoor and Dr. Z. Haq\n(Copyright 1990, 1997, 1998 All Rights Reserved)\n\nProphet Muhammad (s) was born in 570 CE in Makkah (Bakka, Baca, Mecca). His father, Abdullah, died several weeks before his birth in Yathrib (Medinah) where he went to visit his father's maternal relatives. His mother died while on the return journey from Medinah at a place called ‘Abwa’ when he was six years old. He was raised by his paternal grandfather 'Abd al Muttalib (Shaybah) until the age of eight, and after his grandfather’s death by Abu Talib, his paternal uncle. 'Abd al Muttalib's mother, Salma, was a native of Medinah and he was born and raised as a young boy in Medinah before his uncle Muttalib brought him to Makkah to succeed him. Many years before Muhammad's birth, 'Abd al Muttalib had established himself as an influential leader of the Arab tribe ‘Quraish’ in Makkah and took care of the Holy sanctuary ‘Ka’bah’. Makkah was a city state well connected to the caravan routes to Syria and Egypt in the north and northwest and Yemen in the south. Muhammad was a descendant of Prophet Ismail through the lineage of his second son Kedar. \n\nKa'bah is the first house of worship built on earth for the worship of Allah, the One True God. It was re-built (raised from the existing foundation) by Prophets Ibrahim (Abraham) and Ismail (Ishmael). Allah is the proper name of the One True God, creator and sustainer of the universe, who does not have a partner or associate, and He did not beget nor was He begotten. Unlike the word god, the word Allah does not have a plural or gender. \n\nUnder the guardianship of Abu Talib, Muhammad (s) began to earn a living as a businessman and a trader. At the age of twelve, he accompanied Abu Talib with a merchant caravan as far as Bostra in Syria. Muhammad was popularly known as ‘al-Ameen’ for his unimpeachable character by the Makkans and visitors alike. The title Al-Ameen means the Honest, the Reliable and the Trustworthy, and it signified the highest standard of moral and public life. \n\nUpon hearing of Muhammad’s impressive credentials, Khadijah, a rich merchant widow, asked Muhammad (s) to take some merchandise for trade to Syria. Soon after this trip when he was twenty-five, Khadijah proposed marriage to Muhammad through a relative. Muhammad accepted the proposal. At that time, Khadijah was twice widowed and forty years old. Khadijah (ra) and Muhammad (s) were the parents of six children - four daughters and two sons. His first son Qasim died at the age of two. He was nicknamed Abul Qasim, meaning the father of Qasim. His second son Abdullah died in infancy. Abdullah was also called affectionately as ‘Tayyab’ and ‘Tahir’ because he was born after Muhammad’s prophethood. The four daughters were: Zainab, Ruqayyah, Umm Kulthum, and Fatimah (ra). \n\nThe Holy sanctuary Ka’bah was now filled with three hundred sixty idols. The original, pristine message of Prophet Ibrahim was lost, and it was mixed with superstitions and traditions of pilgrims and visitors from distant places, who were used to idol worship and myths. In every generation, a small group of men and women detested the pollution of Ka’bah and kept pure their practice of the religion taught by Prophets Ibrahim and Ismail. They used to spend some of their time away from this polluted environment in retreats to nearby hills. \n\nMuhammad (s) was forty when, during his one of many retreats to Mount Hira for meditation during the month of Ramadan, he received the first revelation from the Archangel Jibril (Gabriel). On this first appearance, Gabriel (as) said to Muhammad: "Iqraa," meaning Read or Recite. Muhammad replied, "I cannot read," as he had not received any formal education and did not know how to read or write. The Angel Gabriel then embraced him until he reached the limit of his endurance and after releasing said: "Iqr

OK, I will put this nice and simply.  There is absolutely no scientifically credible evidence that supports creationism, or the idea that we originated from two individuals.  Faith is a wonderful thing but is not a substitute for evidence.


life in egypt village vs the city comics?

In Ancient Egypt there were definite social classes which were dictated by an egyptian's profession. This social stratification is like a pyramid. At the bottom of the "Social Pyramid" were soldiers, farmers, and tomb builders, who represented the greatest percent of the Egyptian population. The workers supported the professionals above them, just as the base of the pyramid supports the rest of the structure. Above the workers were skilled craftsmen, such as artists, who used primitive tools to make everything from carts to coffins.\n    The medical profession of Ancient Egypt had its own hierarchy. At the top was the chief medical officer of Egypt. Under him were the superintendents and inspectors of physicians, and beneath then were the physicians. Egyptian doctors were very advanced in their knowledge of herbal remedies and surgical techniques. Also part of Egyptian medicine were magic, charms, and spells, which had only psychological effects, if any, on a patient. \n    Engineers, with their mathematical and architectural knowledge, were responsible for the planning and building of the monuments, temples, and pyramids of Egypt. The architects were not the actual builders, insttead they were in charge of the branch of government involved. Then men who did calculations, drew up the plans, surveyed the sites, and supervised the work day were scribes. \n    Above the priests, doctors, and engineers were the high priests and noblemen whom the pharaoh appointed as his assistants, generals, and administrators, who together formed the government. The vizier was the pharoah's closest advisor. Finally, at the top of the social pyramid was the pharaoh. The pharoah of egypt was not simply a king and a ruler, but was was considered a god on earth.\n\n    EGYPTIAN HOMES\n\n    Villagers (tomb builders, farmers, and the like) lived in cramped villages with narrow streets near the tombs sites or farmlands. The houses they occupied were made of bricks. The bricks were made of mud and chopped straw, molded and dried in the hot Egyptian sun. These dwellings deteriorated after time, and new ones were built right on top of the crumbled material, creating hills called tells. Only buildings that were meant to last forever were made of stone. \n    The homes themselves were squarish in shape, with a vent on the roof and narrow windows. The front space of hte house was used by the villager for his trade and possibly for keeping some livestock. The living area was shared by the family. There was little furniture save beds and small chests for keeping clothes. The kitchen was at the back of the ouse where there might be an underground cellar for storage. There was no running water and sometimes a single well served an entire town. Egyptian villagers spent most of their time out of doors. They often slept, cooked, and ate atop their houses' flat roofs. \n    Two examples of actually excavated villages were El-Amarna, and Deir el-Medinah. The workers village at El-Amarna was laid out along straight narrow streets, within an boundary wall. The houses were small, barrack-like dwellings, where animals lived as well as people. Many houses had keyhole-shaped hearths and jars sunk into the floor. There was no well in the village and the water had to be brought from some distance away. Life must have been far more pleasant in the village of Deir el-Medina, home to the workers of the Theban royal tombs. There was a single street with ten houses on either side. The houses in this village had three large rooms, a yard and a kitchen, underground cellars for storage, and niches in the walls for statues of household gods.\n    Wealthy Egyptian people had spacious estates with comfortable houses. The houses had high ceilings with pillars, barred windows, tiled floors, painted walls, and stair cases leading up to the flat roofs where one could overlook the estate. There would be pools and gardens, servant's quarters, wells, graneries, stabl

what can i do if i feel depressed but i don't have the money or insurance to seek help?

Look in the phone book under counseling, or something similar.  Most cities have free 24-hour services that can help you find someone to speak with.  That's if you feel you are overwhelmed with depression.  If it's minor depression, exercise.  Studies have shown that exercising can be just as effective as an anti-depressant for someone who is only moderately depressed.

Should I get a tatoo or not and where and what must it be?

If you want one go for it.  I have tattoos than can be covered (on my back and rt hip), but that was my preference.  I also got tats that mean something to me.  I have a tribal butterfly that I got when I graduated HS, I'm sure you can guess the meaning.  Around it I have other tribal art that I got after a nasty breakup with an ex fiancee, and a 4 leaf clover on my rt hip bone, I survived a car accident that I probably shouldn't have.  Get what you want, but make sure in 5 years you'll like it.


what is an external hard drive for a computer and what are they used for?

An external hard drive is for data storage, but is not contained in the computer case.  It is connected to the computer by plugging into a port on the outside of the case.  The advantage is that it is portable and can be unplugged and carried with you and plugged in another computer that can also store and retrive data from the drive.

To know that I am doing something to contribute to the well being of humankind.  To know unconditional love for another and have that unconditional love returned.  To experience life and be able to share and relate those experiences with someone who gets me, who will ride the roller coaster (not the carousel) with me and savor the ups and the downs.  To make a difference in the community I live in.  To share the Gospel through my actions.  Is that asking too much?


Will the Human Race Receive the Mark of the Beast/Computer Chip W/DNA Attached?

Who knows, the Revelation of John aka Revelations, is very unclear what this means exactly except that it is a mark. At one time people though that this was anything from a branding to a tatoo. Today we have interepreted this to mean microchips and the like. But the real thought should be: "Who can understand the plans that the Lord has instore for mankind?"


have observed lower fuel mileage since Nov & have been told it is due to reformulation since katrina, is true?

Yep, I'll speculate, they are giving us shit gas. I'ts 2.65 in Wisconsin and only goes half the distance in my car too. There are places where gas isn't treated here, but now are great goverment wants to poison gas across the state. One way of not raising the taxes elsewhere, just buy twice as much gas. Use 2x's the amount-get2x's the tax.

How can I connect my Desktop PC to a Laptop.?

For connecting two computers and make a network , you need  a crossover network cable not a straight normal one . \nThen you must set same class ips on them such as "192.168.0.1" & "192.168.0.2" all with "255.255.255.0" subnet mask .\nWhen you set these values you can browse the other compter by its ip address .\nnote : you must enable the File sharing on atleast one computer , otherwise you can not browse your network .

Why is it that in all tv shows students recieve all letter grades, but in real life it is done in numbers?

In real life, you get both...letters and numbers.  I would assume that the tv show grades aren't actually real (duh) so it is easier to just slap a big fat A or F on a paper than worry about 87% being a B+ or whatever.

Grace is simply God's divine enabling. \n\nIf you don't want to wait on Grace, then welcome to the dry windy pennicle of human effort and lonely pious toil.\n\nIntuitively we know that the flesh is capable of anything, including "good" work, as long as we do it without Jesus. That is all the flesh is worried about - Jesus. Anything but Jesus. \n\nGod demands it so lets show Him our best efforts! Right? Anything but Jesus. And off we go to lonely Christian toil ... gutting it out for God but not once trusting Him to do it through us. We'll just let Him give us a grade when the smoke clears. But lets not bother Him in the mean time.\n\nThis might account for the majority of "Chrisitian" ministry, but it will eventually be shown for the carnal nothing that it is. It is not done by the Spirit, and God will want nothing to do with that which He had nothing to do with it until it was over. (I like that phrase.)\n\nThe answer is that the demand-Giver is also the dynamic-Giver. He that commands it will also DO it! He orders us to do NOTHING that He doesn't intend and promise to do IN us and THROUGH us as we abide in Him restfully trusting His capability.\n\nTo most that sounds like an empty hope. Just a bunch of nice sounding words. Well, fine .. you don't have to trust Jesus if you don't want to, but you are not dragging me into your unbelief. Besides, I have seen enough miracles to know where the real Hope is, and it is NOT in my efforts.

i want to find out everything about buddahism?


Would right-wing groups view Jesus as a left-wing hippie if he were alive today?

Yes.  The right-wingers of Jesus' time were the ones who plotted his death.  They couldn't stand that he hung around with tax gatherers and "sinners", that he rescued an adulteress from stoning, that he accused them of putting heavy loads on men's backs and not lifting a finger to help them carry those burdens.  Also, they couldn't stand that he claimed to be the Messiah.\n\nTime and again, when a new idea, such as a new religion or new philosophy, is given to the oppressed people to liberate them, you can guarantee that 1)the powers-that-be will appropriate that religion or philosophy and bend it to their own agendas, or 2) the children of the oppressed, who are freed by the new knowledge, will establish themselves and become comfortable, and a few generations down, will become the oppressors themselves.  It happened in ancient Israel.  It happened time and again in Christianity.  (The Puritans' descendents became the persecutors of the Salem Witch Trials.)  It even happened with Communism.\n\nThere's a Jewish saying: "If God came down to earth, people would break his windows."\n\nI've heard it say, a few decades ago, that if Jesus came today, we'd all be wearing little electric chairs around our necks.  Today, it would be little lethal injection syringes.

i want to lose 20 pounds in 40 days i need help give some avice.?

A better question to ask is do you really need to lose 10 pounds. If you are over weight follow the advice about decreasing your calorie intake, make sure you exercise. Since you changed your question from 20 lbs to 10 lbs. I suspect that you are probably perfect just the way you are and that you are letting an incredibility distorted body image sold by the media make you feel too heavy.


"You love, you're happy; you respect, you're comfortable; you are yourself and then you truly live"


If u r Jewish, does it offend u if u r called a "Jew"?If so y?

Well, usually it depends how you use it in a sentence.  I comeplete agree that you could easily get offended if someone calls you a jew, putting the emphasis on the word "jew".  People make it sount like an insult don't they?  But it probably wasn't their fault;  they couldn't have known that it would hurt you.  You just have to give people a second chance, though give them a warning.

True Love ....\n\nIt's as mysterious as the stars it was written on, as elusive. It is everything it's hyped about to be. It's worth taking every risk, it's worth fighting for, and the problem is if you don't risk all then you risk even more. Love is kind of an elixir that lures us out of reality and into the realm of fantasy. It's like a drug creating an altered state of consciousness.\n\nLove is the moment when an unfavorable act becomes favorable, when you make excuses for some one else's mistakes, when you learn to tolerate, when you learn acceptance, when sacrificing becomes the beauty of life. \n\nIt's the courage to tell the truth especially when you believe its unspeakable.\n\nIt's the time when seeing some one, being seen by some one and thinking about some one feels good, when you learn to find happiness in the smallest of moments.\n\nThat's love--when you learn to put down your ego and love some one more than that.\n\nLove is forgetting your self and remembering some one else. \n\nLove is choosing your partner exactly as he is, and supporting him in his choices. It's honoring your partner's truth and wanting best for him.\n\nIt's not controlling or possessing but rather respecting and trusting.\n\nIt does not mean owning some one, getting some one, rather it means being happy in your loved one's happiness.\n\nLove means living without judgments. It means treasuring your beloved and never taking him for granted. \n\nLove means being able to forgive and learning to give more then you get. It means reaching out when you don't want to, communicating rather than assuming and asking questions rather than jumping to conclusions.\n\nIt means working things out rather than fighting, fighting rather than leaving, and staying through the hurts and disappointments, knowing that through commitment all can be healed. \n\nFalling in love is like being enveloped in a magical cloud. The air feels fresher, the flowers smell sweeter, food tastes more delectable, and the stars shine more brightly at night. You feel light and lofty as though you are floating through life, and your problems and challenges suddenly seem insignificant and easily surmountable. Your body feels alive, your skin tingles and you awaken in the morning with a smile on your face. You are suspended in a state of supreme delight.\n\nLove is a feeling and an action that arises from the most primal place within us. Making a relationship however, is a process that is learned. A relationship is the vessel that carries the precious cargo of love through time.\n\nRelationships are like a precious antique lamp; it takes a little polish and some effort to restore it to its valuable condition. A relationships love and luster will only improve with age if you continually give it the care that keeps it beautiful. But once you uncover its essential beauty it will bring you joy for years to come.\n\nAfter having said all this I want to say that you have to make the decision on your own, on one hand love is magic, on the other it's time tested relationship worked hard and furiously at.


I want to join the US military but what is the best branch? Army Marines Airforce Navy?

It all depends upon what you want to do.  Do you like the sea?  Do you want to fight?  What do you want to specialize in - aircraft repair, healthcare, groundpounding?  \nI suggest researching all the services to see what they offer and then meet with the recruiters.  Don't forget that the Coast Guard is a military service as well eventhough they fall under the Department of Homeland Security not Department of Defense.


What's the meaning of LEAN in manufacturing process?

Quick Definition:\n\nLean manufacturing is a comprehensive term referring to manufacturing methodologies based on maximizing value and minimizing waste in the manufacturing process. Lean manufacturing has evolved in North America from its beginnings in the Toyota Production System (TPS) in Japan. Many of the most recognizable phrases, including kaizen, andon, and kanban, are Japanese terms that have become standard terms in lean manufacturing.\n\nAt the heart of lean is the determination of value. Value is defined as an item or feature for which a customer is willing to pay. All other aspects of the manufacturing process are deemed waste. Lean manufacturing is used as a tool to focus resources and energies on producing the value-added features while identifying and eliminating non value added activities.

how does smoking affect the respiratory and circulatory system?

Smoking affects the respiratory system by coating the insideof the lungs with nicotine which decreases the ability of the aveoli to move air. That's why smokers don't have very good stamina for sports. \n\nIt affects the circulatory system by constricting blood vessels. This increases the rate that your heart has to work (blood pressure goes up, etc.)


Could $100 billion build hydrogen fuel cells for all US cars?

You haven't even considered the fact that the Automobile Industry has outsourced jobs away from Americans. America has been lead by a capitalist system and removed most of the mass transit systems such as trains, and trolley cars in their infrastructure. Some cities don't even have bus systems, and or are cutting funding to bus routes. We are not expanding in those obvious areas. This hydrogen fuel system has been available for over 30 years. This isn't a public situation, but an obvious Government decision from the start. I don't believe that there is a shortage of oil; because of the wells being capped off in Texas in the 80's as the largest oil reserve in the World.

Almost all Mainland Chinese care about Taiwan problem.\n  Because it will be a great humiliation to China if Taiwan declare its indenpendence. you will have to confess, most "Taiwanese" came from Mainland China hundreds of  years or decades years ago. whether the Ming dynasty, the Qing dyansty, or the ROC who ruled Taiwan, they are all of "China". Taiwan is apart of China.\n2. As a critic military strongpoint if Taiwan splits it will be a great convenience for other foreign force to deploy missles, bombers and troops for attacking the mainland,as calld "a never sinked aircraft-carrier". That's why the USA is so pleased to back up Taiwan. And they are so skillful at alienating a country and back up an opposite side to achieve their goal- weaken and control a country, and get benefit from it.\n3. Do not label the PRC with "communist country" and think it wholely a evil. It's a cold-war ideology.\nAs you know that in the past China suffered poverty from the political movements and Taiwan benefited from the enormous American economy. But now with the opening-up started by Deng Xiaoping the PRC are advocating for great economy growth.(Ironically nowadays the Taiwan is hot for political campaigns:( ). A Taiwan manager told me that the current mainland economy is soaring just as Taiwan did in 70s. Many defects may you find, but dont lose confidence.\n3. Taiwan is now a mature, democratic country, so dont want to under control of a arbitrary gov. Please note that PRC never wants to destroy the current prosperty of Taiwan. On the contrary, Beijing is doing a lot to maitain the economical growth of Taiwan. It's the politicians who are scaring the mass as describing the "Communist China" as a devil who wants to ruine Taiwan as a "election words".\nWhat the PRC want is that Taiwan dont not declare its independence and not act as a jackal for other foreign countries. You Taiwanese can gov yourself in the name of China.

Can i use a LCD TV monitor as my PC display monitor?

Yes but you need to make sure your computer supports DVI-D. The way to tell this is to look at the back of your computer and look for a input that is all white. Then from there go out to the store (Best Buy, Circuit City, Frys etc) and get your self a DVI cable that will connect your LCD TV to your PC. Make sure you turn off your computer before doing this as it does take a hard boot or reboot to get this done. It will automatically find the cable, and with your TV on you will be able to use your LCD TV as a display monitor.

How should I have answered my sister-in-law when she said she wasn't planning on helping me at my openhouse

For real, I would call her up (right now) and ask her if she had time to talk, then I would say well (name) you know the other (day, week) when I was telling you all about my daughters open house reception that I was planning, you just blurted out that you weren't going to help me because some stuff about too many people in the kitchen, what was that about? (then let her answer; if she says 'what do you mean?' you reply 'Was that really why you didn't want to help') If she says she just didn't want to be a bother, then tell her that you really need her help and that your mother can't do it and that you would really appreciate her help.  If she comes up with some lame excuse that she's too busy or that she doesn't really like doing those things or something Corny like that then you politely say (with no type of animosity) well I didn't say that when your kids had their thing? I mean, is this really what you do to people who helped you in your time of need.  And if she acts funny at your daughters party pull her to the side and let her know you don't appreciate her childishness and never help her again


How can I make an Employer responsible for paying my child support correctly?

Start by sending a formal letter of complaint and reminding them of their obligation.  If you can afford it, or know a lawyer, it will have much more force coming from a lawyer.  It may have the desired effect.  (Not a personal letter, but a formal letter reminding them they are violating the law, citing the law, and saying if they don't comply you will have to take approproiate steps to enforce the law.)\n\nIf that doesn't work, you will probably have to sue (assuming you have a private right of action, which I assume you do under this Oregon law.)  The Oregon Dept. of Justice might help enforce this, but it is a long shot. They don't have enough people to chase people who don't pay at all, and late payments from an employer are probably too far doen the list for them to deal with.

upgrading P4 processor (775) from 1.6 to 3.06. there was a cooling fan on top of 1.6. Is it ok to use it?

the 3.06 p4 run quite a bit hotter than the 1.6, so yes get at new cooling fan rated for the processor you have. Tiger direct has them cheap, so does Spartan Tech. I believe both ship world wide. Maker sure your 3.06 is really a 775 socket CPU as Socket 478 cpu's wont fit in a 775 motherboard. Then buy the appropriate fan.

Credit control is, along with the interest rate, a way of controlling the creation of money by the banks since new money is brought into circulation through bank credit. It has the merit of not relying on the law of the market, as the interest rate does, and therefore of obviating - in theory - the need for excessive rises in the interest rate

hmm..well i m trying my level best to work hard builting up my business but i cant see good result, how come ?

What kind of business is this?\nMy first suggestion would be to get some business cards. You can make these on your computer, if you don't have a lot of money. If you don't know how, you can get free business cards at www.vistaprint.com, you just pay for shipping. Pass them out to EVERYONE you meet- cashiers, bank tellers, waiters and waitresses, etc. Write a percentage off or special offer on the card, so it is like giving them a gift.\n\n TALK TALK TALK about your business. Do any free advertising you can. Maybe make a MySpace website for your business.

Is the fight against Terrorism a winable one? Wont it just antagonise more wannabe terroists?

Ask the Israelis if the war on terrorism is winnable.  The Israelis have been fighting in one fashion or another since its conception as a nation in the 1950's. We can only defend against terrorism.  Our existence as a nation could very well be the reason that most terrorist or countries that support them wont stop.  It will only win if they decide to give up and "live and let live". The truth of the matter isn't the fact of who is in office or what our politics is. Its a matter of our ability to BE CONTROLLED!  We can not as a people be controlled because we have rights under our system of laws that guarantee freedoms are protected.  To read the US constitution and our bill of rights states the major reasons for there hatred of the USA.  The truth is no its not winnable in one sense, BUT to just pick up and quit is the day we loose all rights as a nation to keep those freedoms they are afraid of...


That's a lie.  The guitar to which you refer may be a great buy, I do not know and I do not know it's history, could be stolen.

Also so much of Tennessee has hills and mountains and shipping expenses are hellacious and through it all I do enjoy the bulk of the people in this village.  Have a nice day.

Celebrities believe that they are the royalty of America.  They love to gripe and complain about the injustices of poverty but they don't seem to be willing to do much about it other than be a paid spokesperson.  How many people could J-Lo feed if she used the money she spent on those earings and gave it to the poor?  How many people could celebrities help if they didn't have to own 7 Million dollar mansions and private islands?  They are hypocrits and arrogant.\nMost of them are also un-educated (only about 2% of them have college degrees), and they believe that they are morraly superior to the common person in America.  Again that shows their hypocrisy and ignorance.\nBut people continue to support them so maybe, just maybe that makes us more ignorant than they are... and maybe that's why they tend to look down their noses at the "common people".

I found a pair of barely-used underwear on the side of the road.  Do I have to report my finding to the IRS?

I believe you should turn the underwear over to the police. IF, after 30 days, no one claims them, they legally belong to you. Then, and only then, you have to fill out IRS Form 36 FotL (Fruit of the Loom) and claim the financial gain you have realized.\n\nUnless, of course, you file bankruptcy. The underwear must be listed with your assets. Then the court would make the determination as to whether you would retain ownership rights to the underwear. Your creditors would have 30 days to decide if they wish to contest your right to the drawers or not.\n\nWith any luck, the underwear will become a treasured family heirloom, passed down from generation to generation. Provided you are able to afford the ever increasing taxes assessed to do the Underwear Tax Act.

What does it mean when u report abuse on someone or what happens to the person?

I'm guessing you're talking about here at Yahoo Answers. The report abuse button is for anything that doesn't follow the community guidelines. When you report abuse, someone from the Yahoo Answers team will review the violation. If they find it actually does violate community guidelines, they send the offender a notice and remove the offensive posting. After 5 notices, your Yahoo account (all Answers info will be removed, mailbox shut down, etc.) will be suspended (I think it's like 3-5 days) and if this situation happens again, your Yahoo account can be completely terminated. You have the right to appeal the suspension & termination with Yahoo.

What do you think Bush is gonna do with the internet records of google?

He'll probably use them to moniter the actions of suspected terroists, pedophiles, and liberals.\n\n>>>could he make arrests?<<<\n\nGoogle searches aren't illegal.  Period.  Even if you google something like "illegal child porn pictures" or "how to blow up buildings," it's not a crime.  That doesn't mean they won't arrest people.  It would never stand up in court, but it's implausible that the current adminstration might arrest people based on searches like the ones above.  However, more like, such searches would simply trigger an investigation looking for more concrete evidence of illegal activites.\n\n>>>what happens to people who use porn and are too young?<<<\n\nQuite frankely, they could care less about kids looking at porn.  The people providing it are guilty of endangering the welfare of a minor (which is crap if you're talking about teenagers going online to look at porn of their own free will), but the kid isn't guilt of anything.  And they are much more worried about people taking porn pictures of little kids than they are about teens looking at adult porn.

Why is it accepted fact that Iraq had no WMD when in fact , they did have WMD?

Its not an accepted fact.  If you notice 90% of the Democrats who were screaming about "No WMDs in Iraq" have all but shut up.\nIts because evidence has come out that Iraq did indeed have working WMDs and that those working WMDs were sent to Syria, as well as other places.\nNow the only ones who cannot accept the fact that Iraq had WMDs are the liberal sheep who haven't heard any different from their leaders.\nBut as I stated above they are not talking, they don't want to show their ignorance, and stupidity, and if someone doesn't talk about something for a while, eventually everyone forgets about it...\nThe problem is that the liberal sheep are still screaming that there were no WMDs, and keeping that fire burning, which will eventually force the democratic leaders to fess up and say, "Ok there were WMDs.  They have been shipped to Syria.  But Bush is still to blame for every social and moral wrong that you can think of."

This is called the motor homunculus. \nSimilarly there is a sensory homunculus where the sensations felt by each and every part of the body goes in the brain.

If I am 67 kg/150lbs how long will it take to lose 15 lbs/7-8 kg with excercise?

Losing fat is mostly a product of diet.  It's much easier to create a calorie deficit by reducing food intake than through exercise.  It might take a 3 mile jog to burn 300 calories but those same 300 calories can be saved by not drinking soft drinks (for example).  That being said, exercise still plays a part as well.\n\nCardiovascular exercise, the type you're currently doing, is very good for your heart and will increase your endurance.  Weight bearing exercise, be it machines, free weights or just your own body weight, increases muscle tissue which actively burns calories.  Cardio is great for your overall health and weight bearing is good at increasing your metabolism.  Both types contribute to your daily calorie deficit.\n\nHow large should your deficit be?  A pound of fat has approx 3500 calories.  Daily, if you eat less/exercise to an amount where your body needs 500 extra calories (a deficit) you'll lose one pound of fat per week.  You might say great - I'll starve and really do alot of exercise and get a 2500 calorie a day deficit and have my 15 pounds gone in 3 weeks!   This extreme would be a bad idea.  Too big a deficit (over 1000 calories) per day and your body will response by reducing it's caloric needs.  This response means it will shed muscle and reduce your metabolism.  You'll lose weight but too much will come from muscle.  Once you go back to normal eating you'll gain back the weight and more of it will be fat.  Welcome to the viscous cycle of most diets.\n\nYour gym should have people who can measure your body fat percentage. Get a test done and ask them to calculate your Base Metabolic Rate(BMR).  This rate is the amount of calories you use per day just to stay alive and walking.  They should then use a multipler based on your activity level each week (which is fairly high based on your question input).  The resulting number is how many calories you need per day to stay at your current weight.  I'd suggest improving your diet to reduce your daily intake by 500 calories but keep your current exercise routine (well... maybe replace 2 of the days at the gym with some strength training machines).\n\nThere are lots of good tips on how to improve your diet on the web.  Here's one of them : http://www.freeweightloss.com/article2.html.\n\nGenerally, replace processed foods with less processed (white bread with whole wheat bread, white rice with brown rice, fruit juices with real whole fruit, etc).  Lean meats over fatty ones.  Reducing some of your starch/grain intake with vegetables saves calories and adds valuable nutrients.  Look at the beverages you drink during the day and replace all you can with water.  Most importantly, don't just guess about your daily calorie intake - WRITE IT DOWN!  Get yourself a pocket food calorie book and a pack of index cards.  Record everything you put in your mouth on a card and total at the end of each day.  Aim for a 500 calorie deficit and you'll have the 15 pounds of "pure fat" gone in 15 weeks.  Too long you say?  Would you rather suffer on a bad diet for a month, lose 15 pounds (muscle and fat) then end up a month or so later weighing more with less of a metabolism to battle with?\n\nI leave the choice up to you =)

i have hpv for about a year and i havent seen warts, can i still get them?

Infection with HPV usually does not cause symptoms. Most HPV infections are latent, meaning the virus is present but is not multiplying or producing any signs of infection. Visible genital warts appear only during active infection. (However, you may spread the virus even if you do not have warts.) Warts may look like tiny bunches of cauliflower or like flat, white areas that may be difficult to see.
