I dunno, have you ever seen the movie "The Island"? They were clones
meant for replacing any organs the original needed.
I'd imagine tho, that a clone, just like a twin would have a different
personality, tastes, ect. since you can't replicate what we'd call a soul (i.e.
your thoughts, feelings, memories, ect.). It may also be like having a child, so
I'd imagine since the gene pool would be so shallow (only your genes) that the
"child" would be prone to birth defects, the same way as
in-breeding.
That being said, whether it's morally ambiguous or not, I never want to see a
human being successfully cloned.
I know a lot of girls who lost their virginity around that age. It's society
these days. The fact is, in some cultures girls got married at that age. But my
opinion is that your friend didn't make a very wise decision. What she did was
very dangerous. She got lucky that she's still alive and healthy. It's
definitely wise to at least know some background about your sexual partner(s).
I believe you are doing the right thing. I didn't have my first girlfriend until
much later than most guys. You're not gay for waiting, the right person just
hasn't come around yet.
I'm 25 and people think I'm 18 or less. i get carded for EVERYTHING. It really
helps meeting girls tho

Oh, and people said I looked 30 when I was 16 0_o
I think it may just be the way you groom yourself and how you accessorize
It makes me laugh to see people say that science and religion are opposites.
People tend to mystify science just as much as religion these days. I think that
people like that are just as fanatical in their views as anyone in organized
religion. Just look at the words they typed. Black and white.
If we could see the world outside our human limitations and biases, we'd see
that the TRUTH is that the spiritual and the phisical co-exist in a completely
scientific way. Science is simply the method we use to understand our world.
When we learn new truths, they become a part of our science. Look at all the
things that are common knowledge now that were once regaurded as magic or
fantasy. Magnetism, the roundness of the earth, flying, and many many more.
Can a god exist in a scientific universe? YES! A god would HAVE to follow the
rules of science to exist at all. Our knowledge of our world is very shallow and
still very young.
Keep an open mind, and don't look foolish. You don't want anyone making fun of
your views a thousand years in the future, because no one mocks a person open to
all possiblities
The university professor challenged his students with this question: Did God
create everything that exists? A student bravely replied, "Yes, He
did!"
"God created everything?" the professor asked.
"Yes, sir," the student replied.
The professor answered, "If God created everything, then God created evil,
since evil exists, and according to the principle that our works define who we
are, then God is evil." The student became quiet before such an answer. The
professor was quite pleased with himself and boasted to the students that he had
proven once more that the Christian faith was a myth.
Another student raised his hand and said, "Can I ask you a question,
professor?"
"Of course," replied the professor.
The student stood up and asked, "Professor, does cold
exist?"
"What kind of question is this? Of course it exists. Have you never been
cold?" The students snickered at the young man's question.
The young man replied, "In fact sir, cold does not exist. According to the
laws of physics, what we consider cold is in reality the absence of heat. Every
body or object is susceptible to study when it has or transmits energy. Absolute
zero (-460o F.) is the total absence of heat; all matter becomes inert and
incapable of reaction at that temperature. Cold does not exist. WE have created
this word to describe how we feel if we have no heat."
The student continued, "Professor, does darkness exist?"
"The professor responded, "Of course it does."
The student replied, "Once again you are wrong sir, darkness does not
exist either. Darkness is in reality the absence of light. Light we can study,
but not darkness. In fact we can use Newton's prism to break white light into
many colors and study the various wavelengths of each color. You cannot measure
darkness. A simple ray of light can break into a world of darkness and
illuminate it. How can you know how dark a certain space is? You measure the
amount of light present. Isn't this correct? Darkness is a term used by man to
describe what happens when there is no light present.
Finally the young man asked the professor, "Sir, does evil
exist?"
Now uncertain, the professor responded, "Of course as I have already said.
We see it every day. It is in the daily example of man's inhumanity to man. It
is in the multitude of crime and violence everywhere in the world. These
manifestations are nothing else but evil."
To this the student replied, "Evil does not exist, sir, or at least it
does not exist unto itself. Evil is simply the absence of God. It is just like
darkness and cold, a word that man has created to describe the absence of God.
God did not create evil. Evil is not like faith, or love that exist just as does
light and heat. Evil is the result of what happens when man does not have God's
love present in his heart. It's like the cold that comes when there is no heat
or the darkness that comes when there is no light."
Some of the worst animes ever also have crappy artwork too, but when something
original or innovative comes out, people are drawn to it, even if it isn't drawn
well
I think that game developers are finally starting to realize they don't need
uber realistic graphics to make games fun. I've also noticed that they're more
interested in creating unique visual styles for games that don't take up so many
polygons, and we now have the technology to facilitate that, so I believe that
games are going to be much more focused on things like a good storyline and
gameplay from now on.
P.S. who wants to play a game with over 100 stages? I'd be sick of that and quit
playing LONG before the end of the game.
I usually beat the game myself, then use a guide to see what I may have missed.
There have been a few rare times that I used a guide to beat certain games
though.
I can imagine myself gently caressing her cheek with my hand, my breathing is a
little unsteady.... I lean forward, my face close to hers.... then gently touch
her lips with mine, only to follow with a long passionate kiss with an awakened
lover. (Hope this makes you ladies drool
I do indeed, as a matter of fact, I believe that that one person will also be my
soulmate. I only hope I'll actually get to meet her in my lifetime :P
P.S. You'll never find them if you're looking
I just read the Death Note manga in this month's issue of Shonen Jump and
thought it was amazing! It was just soo edgy, dark, and cool. I also thought the
artwork was first rate, and I hope to see more of this manga/anime soon!
I consider them like music. Some works are pure art, others are someone just throwing crap together to make a buck.

I have a friend who had an online relationship. He's now happily married
Don't get me wrong though, most I've seen are miserable failures.
A little of both. I think they need to finally just make SMB4!
Probably a sunrise, I don't get to see many of those, and each one is brilliant in a new way.
I have a brother. We work together and play in a rock band together, but we still fight on occasion.
The one on the left looks almost exactly like my ex-girlfriend.
I'm not even kidding.

MCR, HIM, The Rasmus and Disturbed at this very moment
No I don't. Anime is only a sub-genre in a vast ocean of animation styles.
