In response to Is Arranged Marriage Really Any Worse Than Craigslist?

Arranged marriage is very interesting to me, I cant imagine having my parents pick out my husband. I really believe that everyone has a soulmate and there is someone out there for everyone I even think there may be more than one person. I dont believe in arrange marriages, I have lots of friends who like Anita have grown up in a family of arranged marriages. All of my friends have refused to be told who they will date and who will they marry. But in answer to the title of the article, "Is Arranged Marriage Really Any Worse Than Craigslist?" I think the answers YES ! Well at least for me, I am my own person and I want my children to grow up that way as well and I want to raise them well enough to know right from wrong and that includes who they think is right for them.

In response to Resist Hitler and Survive

The holocaust has always been an interest of mine, I have always loved to read stories about survivors and Anne Frank. It amazes me that one person could cause such destruction. I was not aware of what happened in 1943 its amazing to see what people will do for love. I think that those women really loved their husbands, they had to have becuase they risked their lives for it. It is ashame that more people are not aware of their heroic attempts to free their husbands. All you need is love =]

In response to When you Have to Shoot First

I am not one to start a fight, I do not believe in war, I will trust you until you give me reason not to. I do not like knowing that people all over the world are dying, I hate death and I hate guns. I do not believe that people know the effect a gun has, it is not just another fight it is ending someones life and the life of their friends and family. It makes me sick to think that man could stand there and say he filled that mans body up with bullets. It seems to me that he make think he is a bigger man now cause he killed someone, but not only did he kill him but he made sure he was really dead. I hate people who take advantage of their power and in this case I believe that is what Eldad did.

In response to Images

It has always been said that a picture is worth one thousand words, and these three photos just enforce it. The picture of the Iwo Jima Monument is so beautiful I love how you can see the strength in their stance as they place that flag up. Image two the tomb of the unknown is very unsettling to me, not just for the name but because I can't imagine being a family member of that person and not knowing that my sibiling or parent is alive or dead. Image three, my favorite picture gives me goosebumps. I love that even they have passed on what they did is still being remembered.

Response to Butterfly Effect

I am amazed at the new things I have learned about butterflies in reading this. Its amazing to think that with the flap of its wings a butterfly can effect that atmosphere. However what confuses me is why is it only the flap of butterfly wings what about birds, and flys. What is it that the butterflies have that these other animals do not? Overall it was a really cool read probably one of the best so far.
