• Clown Religion ! Is it Justifiable?

    Shawn Wilson

    In today's society we have religions of all kinds and new ones forming everyday...And in Canada you have freedom of religion...So does this mean if I formed a new religion called clowns of the cloak. In this new religion it was a rule to wear our clown suits every day at 2 oclock does that mean no matter where I work , would I be allowed to wear it because of freedom of religion....? this is my question...? how far could we take it...If I became a police officer could I wear it? or a judge? or the priminister...If people want there religion then they should be able to have it bu… Read More

  • Do we need gay washrooms now?

    Shawn Wilson

    Everybody is more and more open about the gay community, but why is the're no gay washrooms.? If the government doesn't accept it thats fine but the general public still has to deal with it...the purpose of men and women washrooms is pretty much common sense. but! what about gay people ? I don't see the difference if I as a male am not allowed to go into a womans washroom then why should a lesbian be allowed it can't be comfortable for the other woman.. And I can't see it being comfortable for gay males entering a male washroom either.  And what about schools????? should we have… Read More

  • Are Nova Scotia people to nice?

    Shawn Wilson

    Anyone that has been to Nova Scotia will always go home thinking how great, kind, generous, an hospitable  the people in Nova Scoita were.  Nova Scotian's are known for this around the world.  They are also known to be drinkers too...but I think that comes with being layed back...but one prob. are they too layed back? Nova Scotians tend to except things with the attitude of oh well thats they way it is...They are the highest taxed province in canada, with the highest gas prices, insurance cost, lowest minimum wage. But yet do not stand up as a people against the government or bi… Read More

  • Can we correct the energy problem?

    Shawn Wilson

    Energy is def reached a point now where it is affecting everyday people at a critical level..people now are stealing gas, and relocating their families, so they have a less travel to work.. People living in the country either live there because there family lived there and it was cheaper to build, and start a family.   The cost of a house in the country is almost 80% cheaper than city houses...for example I live in a 4 bedroom house in the country 20 min from the capital.  It cost me 50 thousand with 2 acres.  november of last year.  The same house in the city would cost me abou… Read More

  • What is your opinion on area 51?

    Shawn Wilson

    Area 51 has been a controversy, for decades why are we still going on about it ? why has the government never truly come out and just explained it in detail so that ppl would feel that they have proved themselves...Is it still a cover up? or is it just another unsolved mystery that ppl like  to talk about.  why is it so highly classified info...seeing how it happened so long ago if it was a military tech. that the government wanted to protect ...don't you think by now it would be old technology ......and they wouldn't care about sharing it....

  • Rural Residential Wind and Solar Power: Good thing?

    Shawn Wilson

    I say good thing! I don't have a system yet but I will  I live in a rural area with the space. Space being the key word. Thinking about it for the planet def..comes down to economic problems, but also the space prob. how much energy is produced related to the space it takes up...a single home needs at least 10 kw system to have heat in the climate you need it in and aircondition in the other climates. But right now rural areas def have the space in there back yards for a tower or panel room on the roof, cities yes wind power is impossible to have private systems on each residents but la… Read More

  • What do you think the human brain is capable of doing?

    Shawn Wilson

    The human brain almost seems to be as mystifying as the universe...we hardly know anything about its true fuction, but yet it controls our exsistance...and our furture...It would seem that exploration of the human brain would be as important as anything ...Maby our brains have the ability of true telepathy, mind control, teleconises, teleportation, healing, you get the point anything really.  But what evidence is out there to support any of these things...And how long through evolution will it take us as a species to reach the point of useing 100 percent of our brain fuction.?            Read More

  • Do Men think more than Woman?

    Shawn Wilson

    I think Im just asking for it here! I did a search through all of the ppl and there ideas on "big think" and found it interesting that percentage wise there seems to be way less woman in big think than men...So do all the men have the ideas or what? (grin) Or could it be that woman are just to busy doing important things rather than the men playing on the internet (grin again) Had to back them up too boys! No but really there seems to b… Read More

  • Will fuel, energy prices eventually force the world into globel green energy?

    Shawn Wilson

    I live in Nova, Scotia the highest taxed province in canada, and am very aware every  day of the cost of home heating fuel, gas, or energy of any kind.  I along with prob. alot of other ppl realize that we will eventually reach a point of critical economical failure. Unless minimum wage or wage increases in general inflate at a balanced rate to reflect the price of energy, we will reach this point.  The lower class and even the middle class are seriously feeling the affects of this now.  to the point of relocating to save on fuel, to switching over to anything that is affordable to save… Read More

    Karmanical: It would seem that you are fairly young... I personaly have already been through the pot smoking stage back about 20 years ago when I was roughly your age and continued to smoke it untill about the age of 25. I then had more things in my life to concentrate on ...and basicly didn't like the feeling of not being totally in control...everybody is dif. it affects everbody's brain dif.. to some it just relax's them others it makes them paranoid and anxious...to answer your question right or wrong ? Its not a matter of right or wrong...the concept of right or wrong for anything d… Read More

    Shawn Wilson

    Homosexuality some belive, that it is caused by the xyr cell? If it is? You could take this as a genetic advance or mutation to control the population......All of us will agree that we have a population problem on this planet.  Disease also .........It almost seems as though the more sophisticated our medication, and cures get the more sophisticated the diseases get.  Almost as though its trying to balance it self. All in All I think we def.  need to get a grasp on the word natural and … Read More

    Dec 21, 2012. This seems to be quite a topic...... It seems that when the year 2000 was comming it was quite a topic too.  But I do find it interesting that ppl don't seem to worry about these dates or even really begin to think about them untill 2 years before the big day..You watch and see as the day aproaches more and more worried ppl drop there pre-occupation, and pay attention....So lets have some thoughts ppl....Is this one just going to be another day or is it?  Read More
