    Defining a True Genius: Qualities & Characteristics

    Iq !? "What makes the genius ?" What is it with this word, you love so much about it? Genius is a renaissance term. And as pathetic as the period when it comes to the concepts of solving problems in contemporary sense. It doesn't have a place in this age in any science. It shouldn't...

    Is Our Reality Just a Simulation in The Matrix?

    :) Do you really think anything, (machines or...) would need or bother to set a 'matrix world' as described in the movie when we're already surrounded by holywood, the world media, internet and the 'brilliant' idea of matrix movies themselves !?

    I can kill a person in a situation of self-defense...I think... But I don't think this could be answered without facing a likely situation. It is too difficult to imagine smt like it! To end another human being's life by your own hands...to do something which cannot be taken back, ever... Ok...
