Are you a Dreamer?
What is the most universal characteristic fear or laziness, what about the fear of laziness hehe, im just joke about that one. it a really hard tose up between the two, from time to time all people care in fear of something and have feared before also most people have wanted to be lazy or acted lazy, like in school their are a lot of kids that are lazy to try in school and do poorly in class which effects their grade, and the some of them fear to fall or even fear to achieve so they become lazy on purpose i think that fear can lead to laziness or visa versa. "Sanity is a madness put to good uses; waking life is a dream controlled" Dreams would have to be waking life that we are all controlled of, because when you are knowing that you are sleep like in waking life how you know when you dream when you are incapable of turning of the lights, which will allow you to create or destroy anything in life it is like a fresh start that you are in control of you can never die and you will be allow to change the events that happen and the time and the place that you are located in the snap of your finger. Sanity is madness put to good use because when ever you go or become crazy your perspective will start to change and you will end up seeing life differently and understanding if in a new way then you have ever seen it before, allowing you to view more and understand even for about life.

Visions of Angles
Throughout all 3 pieces of literature that we read last week, they all commonly shared the same theme of truth. And the different ways to interpretate it. like in the children book "i know the moon" its theme of truth is about how do you know if the ruth that you are being told is correct and how do you find out if they are correct. The most common ways of finding out if the truth is correct it by using the three truth test, or you can just be very simple and just agree with what you are being told but that could lead you to not have an opinion of your own if you go by what every one tells you and not for your own believes and question what you are told. Or in "the wolves in the walls" its about a little girl that hears strange noises coming from the wall and every one tells her that its alright its just bats rats. but it seemed at first like they didn't believe her but if your inferred to what they were actually saying they new that the wolves were in the wall but to keep them same the wanted to believe that see was wrong and wasn't telling the truth. I think that i would have like the children's books better cause one they were really the only ones that i remember also they had a really good story and theme to them, also they were very entertaining and detailed. also reading the stores made me think about how do you know when truth is correct, and i decide you could either just believe what you told or go and find out more info for your self, and start to create your own opinion on the subject.

Lecture on Humanity
Most of all the predictions that Issac Asimov, made did come true he was correct that we needed air/ water pollution control. We really do need to fix those cause if we dont it will be really bad obviously every one know about global warming which was led apon by pollution in the air making a hole in the ozone layer, which is leading to extra co2 in the air heating the world, melting polar snow caps, and if we dont do anything to fix our polution proball we will be in trouble leading to the end of the world. Issac also predicted that we need change in our education system whcih happen most people dissagree on the changes that were made but some of them were okay, like bush's "no child left behind." Like 80% of americans are over wieght do to the greasy fatty food, which is needed to be and have already started to change, like resturants are amking healtheir foods, grilling not frying, also more people are eating smaller proportions and exerizing.
When we were watching one of Issac's lectures online in class i got a feeling that we need change and if we dont do anything we are going to be in trouble. Also to me his lecture on humanity and the environment stood for "we are all to blame thier is no scape goat." Which pretty much means evne if you havent polluted and believe that you dont need to help you should cause if you push the blame off to other people then it will just lead to fighting and arguing thne nothing will get accomplished.

my thoughts of mean making machine
Meaning-making Machines
"If there is one indisputable fact about the human condition it is that no community can survive if it is persuaded--or even suspects--that its members are leading meaningless lives in a meaningless universe."--Irving Kristol
My perseption on "Meaning-making Machines" is that no one wants to be called a nobody, everyone wants to have a perpose for living and not die without leaving a mark on earth saying they have lived a great life and have acomplished all that they could have done. I disagree with Ivring Kristol cause to so extense a community can survive whne nobody believes in it up to a surtin amount of time but eventully it will crumble, but it wont be meaningless cause it would have served a perpose and tought us how to comand and be incharge of a country. And that will help rebuild and start a new begining for the comunity and goverment.
Iviring Kristol's "Meaning-making Machines" does relate with Plato's "Socrates Apology," because they both are dealing with life and the meaning of it. Plato's "Socrates Apology" talks about how every one has a meaning and perpose for living, when Iviring says the nobody wants to be meaningless.
