We were made in gods image.I am a caring person.i care about others greatly and i expect nothing in return.I am always there for the ones that need me.
I refuse to believe that god has left us because of some higher purpose.I am here.I am made in gods image.So why cant god be here as well?
Maybe he is dead.Maybe he is busy somewhere.Maybe he just doesn’t care.
Where is god our prime creator?Why is he not here leading us into a better life?Why take only a few trips to earth a few thousand years ago when man was very primitive but is not here today when we need him the most.
We may have advanced technologically but psychologically most people are still in the middle ages.They just do a good job hiding it most of the time but when the curtains fall and anarchy ignites man shows his true animal nature.Chaos and destruction are his satisfaction.
This is not a rant or trolling.Just a genuine philosophical question.I know no one here has an answer to this question but i am Curious about what you think.

Did I use commas correctly in the following sentences?
::: A tall, white picket fence stood between the backyard and 7 Eleven. Along the right end of the fence was a row of tall, evergreen trees. :::
And is “white picket” two words? Or is it spelled “white-picket”?
Thanks!

-I like animals
-Never wet my bed, really
-When I was 9-10 I drew pictures of cats fighting each other in wars, some of the pictures I drew were pretty grisly, but I’d never do anything to them (my family actually has 7 cats, I love them all)

I know I worry about stupid stuff, but I worry about this sometimes, and I get really scared easy!! Help?

Alright, here’s the deal. I have a small 10g tank right now with about 5 – 7 Sword tails and an algae eater. I really want to upgrade to a larger fish tank, somewhere within the range of 55g – 75g. I’m thinking about a 60g tank. What all do I need to do for this new fish tank? I understand most of the basics already, seeing as I’ve kept fish before. On another note- this larger fish tank may become an additional tank, and I’ll give some of my sword tails away. If I do this, which would be easier and more rewarding: either having a freshwater tank, or saltwater? I have absolute no experience with saltwater aquariums, but the fish you can have just look gorgeous!
Are there any beautiful, gentle-nature freshwater fish that are not that expensive? I’d hate to spend a lot of money on this. I know these are a lot of questions, but please bear with me. If this *isn’t* an additional tank, should I move over the gravel from my old tank to the new one, as well as buy more? Or should I do a substrate flooring instead? I plan to have many plants in this new aquarium. I don’t want to have sand, as I’ve heard it can mess up with the filter.
Speaking of filter, would I place the old one in the new tank or buy a new one? Because frankly, I’m not happy with my filter at the moment. My algae eater got stuck where the water flows out last night. My dad and I had to pour all the water into the fish tank to get the poor guy out. I’m afraid something like this may happen again. It gave me a very bad scare. Is there any types of filters that are somewhere near 100% safe from things like these?
Once again, I apologize for all the questions and in a messy order. I’m kind of just thinking and typing my thoughts at the same time, LOL. On the other note, I noticed some of my sword tail fry have been disappearing. Well, they are not really “fry” anymore, per say. They are halfway grown adults. I’m also worried about the father of these fish, he doesn’t move around much. He just rests at the top of the fish tank and, well, hovers. I have air pumps and such so I know it’s not that he isn’t getting enough oxygen in the water. And quick question, (well a lot more of them, anyway.) what exactly *is* a water change? I mean, I add more water when it evaporates from the tank, (which happens quite often,) but what is *really* a water change? Sorry for these silly questions, it’s just that I’ve had this fish tank for a long time and I never really learned what it is.
Thank you for continuing to read this and answering! I really appreciate it!

Are the apples okay to eat? Does the same go for other types of fruit trees?

I have asked this question before awhile ago but I’d like others opinions. Anything you have to say about these paragraphs would be great. Do you think the story has any potential for you?
The silence of dawn rang through the winter air and all was good. Then the silence was consumed. All was no longer good, it would never be the same. The street was littered with the bodies of men, women, children and animals alike. At first glance, it looked like the end. The end of humanity as we know it. But upon closer inspection, one body was moving, the body of a child, young enough so as to be of innocent nature but old enough so that the occasional memory can be saved. Suddenly there was a noise like the folding of paper, only amplified and lower pitched. And then there was a man. He wore a long dirty blue hood contrasting against a bright red robe. Although only small, he towered over the boy. Quick as a flash he enveloped the boy in his robe protecting him from the dust rising from the debris. The noise repeated and both man and child were gone. No signs of the event were left behind, earth had lost its last inhabitant.
When the child awoke he was met by a harsh light revealing an even harsher reality. The room was warm but the utilitarian furniture and business-like colours of the walls upset the child. And he began to cry. Two perhaps two and a half the man thought despite his best efforts. He had watched the cradle, in which the child had just awoke, from the darkness of the doorway. The man did not always agree with the draconian measures of the Human Relations Council but this was a fact he would take to his grave. The man made pained foot steps towards what he had avoided for the past two hours and promptly he was standing over the cradle. He lowered his hood revealing an expression of pity and empathy. It was at this moment that the boy and the man formed a bond. Not said and not thought, but this man would be the father of this boy. The man shed his first tear since childhood. “Sorry,” he muttered. The man vividly remembered his single visit to earth. The art and the literature had fascinated him. He loved all music, art and writing but most of all he loved the Vitruvian Man. “Leonardo” he said almost inaudibly as he grasped the boys hand. “Leonardo” he repeated.

i need help with choosing a college. i plan on going into vet school, but i don’t know if i should choose west virginia university or ohio state university… here are some reasons i’m stuck:
i would get in-state tuition for wvu, but i’d be out of state for osu.
i feel more comfortable and familiar with morgantown and wvu, and i have no idea how to get around osu or columbus.
i love columbus, but i grew up going to morgantown often for football games. at heart i’m definitely a mountaineer, but should i try to branch out and become a buckeye?
i just don’t know with my major, either. at osu, i’d major in animal sciences and follow their pre-vet route. at wvu, i’d most likely major in biology just incase i didn’t get into vet school from wvu.
…i don’t know what percentage of wvu students get into vet school that try to, and i can’t seem to find a statistic about it.
i’m just afraid that i’d have less of a chance of getting into vet school if i went to wvu, but i’d just probably have an overall more comfortable experience at wvu.
should i try to step out of my comfort zone though?
also, i already have a room and a roommate in the honors dorms at wvu. so i feel as if i already have a connection there.
oh, and i AM in the honors program at wvu, but i probably would NOT join the osu honors program. any input? please help!

Both my female Pom mix and male Pom lift their legs on things like trees, posts, patches, of grass etc, while on a walk, but they`ll also kick out with their back legs when they`re finished marking and my Pom mix uses her front and back legs. Why?

Here’s a tricky question I believe nobody can truly answer.
Personally though, I believe it’s our nature. Two males cannot reproduce – Yet, one male and one female can – and that, naturally, is entirely naturalistic.
But at the same time – Some cultures, in the past and the present see woman as being inferior, weak and worthy only if she serves a man.
This is entirely a social construct (And not one I will ever believe in either.)
Sorry if I’ve misunderstood the question, hope this gives you something to think about ^^
