If someone from the 1950s suddenly appeared today, what would be the most difficult thing to explain to them about life today?
Probably the answer would be: "I possess a device in my pocket, that is capable of accessing the entire information known to man. But I use it to look at pictures of cats and get in arguments with strangers.

Forget Everything Else
Money says:
"Earn me and forget everything else"
Time says:
"Folow me and forget everything else"
The future says:
"Fight for me and forget everything else"

The glorious Part about Science
Suppose that every memory, written word, and piece of technology on earth was destroyed all at once, leaving humanity to start completely from scratch.
Everything we have come to know about science would eventually be discovered again. Given a few thousand years, people would figure out chemistry, and rediscover all of the same elements we know now. People would once again understand biology, and its evolutionary origins. People would eventually see the motions of galaxies in the sky, and work out the details of the universe and the big bang. This is the glorious part about science, it can and would all be replicated. I can assure you, however, that the story about that talking snake would be gone forever.

The 10 main Reason why some People oppose Gay Marriage
1. Being gay is not natural. Real people always reject unnatural things like eyeglasses, polyester, liposuction
and air conditioning.
2. Gay marriage will encourage people to be gay, in the same way that hanging around tall people will make you tall.
3. Legalizing gay marriage will open the door to all kinds of crazy behavior. People may even wish to marry their pets because a dog has legal standing and can sign a marriage contract.
4. Straight marriage has been around a long time and hasn’t changed at all; women are still property, blacks still can’t marry whites, and divorce is still illegal.
5. Straight marriage will be less meaningful if gay marriage were allowed; the sanctity of Brittany Spears’ 55-hour just-for-fun marriage would be destroyed.
6. Straight marriages are valid because they produce children. Gay couples, infertile couples, and old people shouldn’t be allowed to marry because our orphanages aren’t full yet, and the world needs more children.
7. Obviously gay parents will raise gay children, since straight parents only raise straight children.
8. Gay marriage is not supported by religion. The values of one religion are imposed on the entire country. That’s why we have only one true religion.
9. Children can never succeed without a male and a female role model at home. That’s why we, as a society, expressly forbid single parents to raise children.
10. Gay marriage will change the foundation of society; we could never adapt to new social norms. Just like we haven’t adapted to cars, the service-sector economy, or longer life spans…

Religion Convictions
Religion has actually convinced people that there is an invisible man living in the sky who watches everything you do every minute of every day. And this invisible man has a list of ten specific things he doesn't want you to do. And if you do any of these things, he will send you to a special place, of burning and fire, and smoke and torture and anguish for you to live forever. Suffering and suffering, and burn and scream, until the end of time. But he loves you. He loves you and he needs money.

The Esquimo and the Priest
Esquimo: "If I did not know about God and sin, would I go to hell?"
Priest: "No. Not if you didn't know."
Esquimo: "Then, why did you tell me?"
Priest: "No. Not if you didn't know."
Esquimo: "Then, why did you tell me?"

Whenever you feel like a Genius
Whenever you feel like a genius, remember there was a time in your life when you were learning not to shit on your pants.

Just Listen
Listen earnestly to anything your children want to tell you, no matter what. If you don't listen eagerly to the little stuff when they are little, they won't tell you the big stuff when they are big. Because to them all of it has always been big stuff.
