Fact or Fiction

I believe that i see no harm in bending the truth just a tad to make a memoir more interesting. As long as it isn't to farfetched.
Toby does not lie about who he as much as to truly harm the line of history. He got to his events in life and may have bent them slightly. But in the end it made up a great read. Just as i have previously said.

It doesn't really matter if he bends the truth or not. It harms no one, and it ended up being a great book. One of the few i would have liked to read on my own if not in class.

This Boys Life

I partially agree with the 2 quotes. This is because, at times there is nothing to do once you've assumed a pose, and corruption is not all of life, although it is part of it.

People in high school assume poses through other people. Usually whomever is more popular establishes there own pose. They do things like knowing many people, doing crazy things, or being attractive gets you there.

Corruption is a part of life because without bad there can be no good. If there is none of that then, there is no foundation for which to establish ones place on moral grounds. There would be no standard of what is right or wrong. Thus a person would not have much of a conscious.

Mo Money

The fastest ways to make money in my opinion are , ironically illegal, prostitution, drugs, arms dealers, etc., but there is the stock market.

The best way to make money would have to be something that is legal. Because that way you feel good about it.

Old money is usually people who have money but are born into it such as the Kennedy's. New money is where somebody gets rich from the ground up, such as Andrew Carnegie.

Intelligent design

Intelligent design is 2 different scientific hypothesis. One being that you need a intelligent design to create every single thing we have ever known; and the other is that there is none.

An argument against evolution is that it is portrayed as a proven fact, when in fact it is not.

At Liberty University one could study the origins of the universe, the earth, life, and its species. This study derives from the knowledge from religion, science, philosophy and history.
