My everyday life reflections #3

Everyday, when I stand on the bus stop I see couple of people crossing the street, but far away from zebra crossing. They just cross the whole street, they stop the cars, just to get to the place where they are going faster than by going on zebra crossing. My reflection about it may seem a bit weird, but what I concluded, is that people want to get their goals quicker than they should come to them. They don't care about consequences, they just want their life goals to come as quick as possible. However, they don't see that while taking the shorter ways, they may cause many tragically ending situations, that will destroy their and maybe even other peoples' lives. People in general, including me of course, should be more careful with what they are doing, because mostly our goals need time, and shorter ways of getting them may just take them away from us within one second.

    You are talking about taking SHORTCUTS or CUTTING CORNERS. Both expressions would work well in your text.

    In my opinion crossing the zebra street is not very serious crime when we would cross the street with awarness and when street is not busy a lot. I think also that people cross the street so fast because of fear. Standing in the middle of street make us think that we will been hit by car and in this reason people could accelerate on the street.

The Big Story: Origins of Religion

The video I watched recently talks about Stone Age people and their believes. The part that mostly got my attention was the one that talked about "will" and "spirit". As it has been said in the video, people at that time thought that their moves, the fact that plants are growing and even the movement of sun and moon, they were all the product of will. For those people, the "will" was "spirit", and the whole world was filled in with loads of spirits. However, the spirit was also named as "god". There was a god within everything that had moved, so it was a product of the "will". The interesting thing that has been said in the video was also the fact, that people believed that what they see in the water was their spirit, and not just their reflection. This video answered many questions I had about how people had thought in the Stone Age. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V9mFNgu6Cww acquire Nowadays people want to acquire mor...

Atheists and Christians Debate Truth And Belief

In the video I watched, the producers of the whole thing asked 3 atheists and 3 christians to take part in it. They asked them 5 questions, and the way they could answer them was  to sit on their seats. If someone didn't sit, that would mean they do not agree with the statement that was mentioned. To be fair, I mostly agreed with atheists women, but that didn't really shock me. What actually frustrated me, was the way the oldest christian tried to proof the other side of the debate wrong. He was aggressive, especially towards one of the woman who was able to stand for what she believe and what she thinks is right. However, the fact that they all could come to some agreement at the end of the video showed that even when you don't believe in the same thing, you can still discuss it in the right and calm way and you can still live with each other peacefully. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3SjuC0PYscU&t=54s to be a man of faith All the priests are men of faith as the...

When will it be accepted to be Muslim and gay?

The main topic of the video I have watched is already mentioned in the title. It shows four people in the middle of the stage, talking (or more like arguing) with audience, about either a man on their left is right or no. That man is gay, who also says he is a muslim. At the beginning he argues with a woman in the audience, who says that if he is gay, it's okay, but he cannot be muslim. Them the man in the middle gets into a fight, telling that woman that if he wants to be a muslim, let him be. His sexuality wasn't his choice, but religion on the other hand is. The rest of the video is basically an argument about the man protecting the gay muslim guy is right or no. When it comes to me and my opinion about this whole thing, I am 100% with the man who says that you can be gay and believe in whatever you want, because faith doesn't have only a few rules that have you have to follow. Different people can interpret every religion how they only want to, which was also said in th...
