questions to which i have no answers:
1. do things happen completely by chance or do the minor seemingly irrelevant objects like fengshui play a role? they say fengshui is just statistics for thousands of years, and nassim taleb says it's all just random. i'm secretary hoping fengshui will work because otherwise i'm left with no options.
2. since nearly everyone ends up hating his/her spouse, should people still marry for love/the illusion of love? can we skip the whole process? what would an alternative system be?
3. for the geeks, has anyone figured out our fitness function for our evolutionary algorithm yet? why is that people with minimal resources are having many children while the loving, responsible parents are sterile? why is that the underdeveloped world infested with aids have such a high pregnancy rate while developed countries are facing an aging of population crisis?
4. i would like to make it impossible for un-loving, un-responsible and un-intelligent people to reproduce. i'm not saying to eliminate them altogether, but i'm saying, keep our gene pool clean. why is that immoral? i don't see any articles protecting the right to give birth in the european convention on human rights.
5. is there really a big conspiracy behind capitalism and mankind? or are we just naturally inclined to self-destroy?
6. why do humans never listen to great historical figures like gandhi, buddha or jesus? they laid down the correct path and great maxims for humans and yet true followers are so rare.
and lastly, why do i always procrastinate before my final exams?

7. When are you visiting so you can give me the high-fives and then watch Wicked?

1. Don't believe in fengshui. It's a fictitious Asian-thing that was secretly invented by white people, just like General Tso's Chicken and SARS. Luck is what you make of it.
2. People marry so that they can have kids without people thinking they are perverts, and because they can save money on taxes. I think those reasons are good enough for getting married..
3. Most people in the developed world carry around cellphones near their crotches. For men, this kills their sperm cells.
4. I completely agree with you! There are a lot of people in this world who are not fit to pass on their inferior DNA. We already have enough dumb and ugly people in this world. People should be required to pass some type of intelligence test before being able to have sex and make babies. Women should be forced to wear chastity belts where the lock is actually a rubiks cube that the guy has to solve in order to unlock it.
5. Capitalism = Crapitalism.
6. To some extent, people do listen to and follow those great historical figures. If they didn't, the world would be a lot uglier than it already is. The problem is that there are a lot of influential idiots in this world too, like Paris Hilton and Chris Brown.
7. There's nothing wrong with procrastination. If people didn't procrastinate, then they would have too much time on their hands. I'm sure if it really is important, you will get it done eventually anyway.
1, 5 & 6. When we fengshui our minds...to each her own conclusions
2. The "institution" of marriage is overrated. Yes to respecting and caring. A social contract we can certainly do without.
3 & 4. The Poor shall Inherit the Earth until Nature regulates back to its equilibrium. I admit this is pretty presumptuous statement, but can you think of a better?
Stop being so curious! Curiosity killed the cat? monkey? human?
What is IS.
