  1. This is perfect, those who want to learn will learn. I can't wait to check out their curriculum.

  2. Sure, but how exactly is this hierarchical learning, and what exactly do you mean by hierarchical learning?

  3. Cool, thanks!

  4. I'm sorry, I didn't pick up any of that. I think you're a bit paranoid. The simple fact that it's possible for people to learn about things without being overwhelmed and paralyzed by loans and their interest and debts is probably a good thing.

  5. The former.

  6. I know what hierarchy is, and what hierarchical structures are, but you still haven't answered my question -- what's 'hierarchical learning'? And, yes, I would agree that hierarchical structures are completely unnecessary to function effectively at all levels.

  7. Learning shouldn't hurt one's spiritual pursuit.

  8. Everything you said in this comment is valid, but, again, I don't see how it's relevant to the video you're posting under. What this lady is doing is NOT evil or part of some evil plan thought out over centuries. One of the many reasons why the public is unaware or simply apathetic about fluoride and chlorine in the water supply, all the nasty ingredients in the so-called vaccines, and how effective treatments for cancer have been suppressed and squandered, perhaps, is a lack of common sense, wh

  9. Where would I find a link to what you're talking about?

  10. But giving your child stuff and allowing them freedom are two totally different things. Freedom does not lead to a sense of entitlement, nor to acting like a hellion as you put it. True, they could learn certain behaviors from, say, classmates at school. Still, if their parents set good examples, typically, the ideal-ness of the parents behavior would override the ideal-ness of the classmates behavior, subconsciously if not consciously. Anyhow, my whole point is that ---continued

  11. It is pretty much common sense that most school yard bullies get bullied at home...

  12. Anything can be limiting, just as anything can be otherwise, but, generally, freedom is not limited and indeed the polar opposite. Would you like to explain why, or how, you think too much freedom can be limiting?

  13. "If someone allowed you to do acid all the time rather than only twice, you're whole brain would be completely fried." First of all, that is propaganda. I know people who have done hundreds of hits of acid and they are perfectly sane, more sane than our politicians, even though that is not saying much.

  14. That's fine, but I think logic is off :)

  15. Agreed. It's scary what's going/gone on in the UK.

  16. It sounds like you want somebody other than yourself to guide or direct your life for you. Now, of course, rules (or guidelines) are not a bad thing, except when they are treated as absolutes. Would you not rather freely self-appoint rules or guidelines for yourself, especially considering you are the only one who knows what is best for you...?

  17. Not necessarily, a longer essay with no limit on how many words may turn out to be verbose, or less refined, but I believe the character of the person writing the essay will stand out a lot more if there were no limits. Additionally, "2,000" words may be too short to express detail and analysis accurately and/or effectively. No limits are better than limits in every way.

  18. Disorder would not ensue from too much freedom; haven't you heard of spontaneous order? Also, children emulate their parents. They'd only act like a hellion if you acted like a hellion.

  19. --- freedom, even too much freedom, is not a bad thing!

  20. First of all, giving your child whatever they ask for is light years away from allowing your child a little freedom. Now, of course, if you were to spoil a child, they would grow up to be a brat. But, again, being spoiled and being free are two totally different things. Second, I never said you should give your child the freedom to go around beating up other children, and this was not implied either. However, they learned those actions from somebody, probably their abusive alcoholic parents.

  21. @dookiee0000001 I bet you that your statement is based upon quite a bit of uncertainty. ;)

  22. Very, very interesting.

  23. So unique too!

  24. So cool :)

  25. Yeah, if you don't understand what numbers or a decimal point means...

  26. That's how I feel, but what does that have to do with her message?

  27. How and/or why could her message have so many dislikes?

  28. LOL

  29. All of your messages are being marked as spam for some reason. It must have been thrilling! That would be funny, though, if one or two of the people on Skype, whose faces they showed, weren't actually singing but instead pretending to sing :D I'm glad you enjoyed yourself, nonetheless

  30. Cool. Going to Japan, that's on my bucket list!

  31. How come every male in the choir has short hair, yet the conductor has long hair?

  32. ^^ You mentioned that you are living in Japan, but you don't look Japenese?

  33. If you come across a video, let me know! I hate reading off of a computer screen and the video would save time.

  34. And why do you play games?

  35. The problem is not how much time we spend playing games, it is WHY we spend so much time playing games!

  36. Great presentation. So clear and concise and descriptive. I could listen to her for hours.

  37. How do you know the bank, or your credit card company, hasn't sold your information to some third party? How do you know your credit card company hasn't sold your profile, that is to say the collection of information concerning everything you've used your credit card to buy, to some third party, to some marketing firm or what have you...? I mean, common, start using that piece of broccoli between your ears...

  38. think.

  39. Sorry, also, the 'tracking' online may be more generally coherent than in the 'real-world'. That is the slight difference, if you'd consider it much of a difference.

  40. Now, if they're tracking IP addresses, and are able to somehow obtain records stating who those IP addresses belong to, that's another story...

  41. How can you have a mistake in natural selection?

  42. So, just because murder is illegal, just because it has hefty consequences like the death penalty and life in prison, does not stop murdering from happening. Also, you have clearly underestimated the power of the almighty dollar when 'justice' is concerned...

  43. Seriously...? What do you expect to happen when you sign-up to networking sites, or any site for that matter, or post anything on any website prompting you for your FB information or whether or not you'd like your post linked to your FB account...? YOU CAN STILL REMAIN FAIRLY ANONYMOUS ONLINE, AS LONG AS YOU DON'T DIVULGE YOUR PERSONAL IFNORMATION -- and, if you do divulge your information, EXCEPT your privacy to be 'violated'!

  44. Yes but once you give them the information, they can use it any which way that pleases them and, for the most part, you will never know how they use it; whether or not they sold your information to some third party, etc etc. I feel as if "some degree of responsibility" is a great misrepresentation of the truth.
    1
  45. So, you don't have a credit card, or even a bank account?? Some degree of responsibility with the agencies or institutions...? You gotta be kidding me...

  46. ...campaign, because as soon as they enter office, what they said they were going to do becomes something totally different.

  47. I do not understand why you are getting so defensiveness, or taking this so personally. But that is beside the point. Sure, you have the choice of what bank to use, or what credit card to get, but you have absolutely zero choice of whether or not you want to give them certain information. Also, to say we elect public officials, is to imply our votes matter, and as time goes on it is becoming more and more self-evident that it does not matter who you elect, or what they promise to do in their c

  48. "Banks are far too dependent on the money of their clients..." And that is why they get billions of dollars in bailouts...? I understand where you are coming from, but they have little responsibility to the public, and even their clients.

  49. The fact that specific images come up almost seems more advanced or evolved to me, more adapted to this world. That's crazy...

  50. I recently realized, if anybody is seriously interested in influencing the direction of the world, (YOU HAVE A CHANCE) you should get into either writing science fiction novels or producing science fiction movies!
