Plinky asked me what I wanted to learn more about... so I answered....
Science and Religion Are They Compatible?
The one thing that ignited the spark of eager to learn more is thinking about the ultimate core link between Religion and science. After going through several documentaries, such like that of great Priests, scientists, and other videos of Stephen Hawking, I reached a point, of which I asked myself, "what must have layed before, brings us now, but what was it that made this happen? How did the universe come into form?" I tried to look through various sources, but hardly found any answer complimenting the other. It was either scientifically unproven theories or God. Now being a theist, I do not deny the fact that God doesn't exist, but if it was Him who created science, then why is there a rift between both the understandings? Why does science go on constant unweavring endavours to disaprove of God's existence. Another thing that got me pondering is of why there are so many different religions? I came to a close when I realised that it is mainly because of this differentiation the world isn't united as one, rather we are all clustered in different land masses believing in a source, of which each cluster , have their on perceptions of the one true God. We may build up several myths, historic epic, to reason out the past time, but at the end we ask ourselves (atleast I do)... what is time? And when was time?
I think I went a little too deep in my topic, but I hope this got you pondering the same way I still am.

- Ain't that a surprise? ... :\
-
Plinky asked me : Is it always better to know the truth, even when it hurts?
Sometimes I believe that yes, Ignorance may be bliss..sometimes not..
Here are the few terms of which Ignorance may not be bliss.
In terms of surprises - sometimes knowing things ahead of time, makes HECK a lot of a difference... There are many scenarios I can lay to backup my response.. For one instance take a friend who was threatened to be murdered the following midnight. If he/she would have notified someone or called the police, he/she would have saved heck a lot of his/her life. See? Sometimes Surprises aren't that fun...
In terms of Grades - Well, preparing parents for the PTA would be nice before actually getting your grades :|
In terms of relationships- The girl/guy wouldn't be too hurt if you told her/him in the face (well, it is better than backstabbing).
In terms of Friends and talent - Knowing where you are wrong actually helps you improe your mistakes. Just like they say, Learn from your mistakes. Unless people don't point out what exactly and where are you wrong, you will never be able to rectify your mistakes

- Everything Happens for a Reason: My Stance
-
Yes I do. For every bad thing that occured to me, I keep telling myself to be thankful for the situation I went through, for thing COULD have got worse. And after a short period I SEE what could've got worse.
Like for a short example, a new kid from the United States joins a school in Britain. Obviously, the child has to keep up with the new spell-change. (for example - color - colour
- elevator - lift
- truck - lorry
- cookie - biscuit
- center - centre
- Program - Programme
etc.
But the child fails to do so for the first test. That very test he failed, could be one reason why he aced the next.
Did you get it?
No?
Here's another example, A baby passed away,
just for an example, I do not mean to hurt anyone,
A baby passed away, in accord to the Karmic Cycle, this Baby has comitted to the least amount of Karma, and so it received the Glory to be with God.
Even though when things don't turn out right, there will always be a logical/ spiritual/ scientific reason for it. There will be a reason anyhow.
