Comment on Tiahuanaco: its enormous buildings, according to a local tradition, appeared in the course of a single night..? by ♪σρսϟ яэχ♪

it has been suggested that to move those spectacular perfect cut stones some form of vibration was used, vibration can create matter, so why not sound being able to do these tasks account for answers,,,,,,,,
so can i see a technology so advanced enabling one to move & lift gigantic stones into place since no tools are ever found at these sites, save for primitive tools that were surly not used for cutting or lifting and moving such stones,,
was earth visited by ancient Beings with the know how to build these wonderful beautiful structures?
Perhaps,,,,,,,,

Comment on Frustrated with life in America? by bob

Outspoken critics may not feel the love that others do, but still serve a valuable purpose. Frustration with the status quo is what foments change...so your views (many of which I do not share BTW) are quite valuable. Every country has its dark underbelly. Your greater familiarity with the USA is the reason for seeing so much of the wrongness. "Familiarity breeds contempt" is quite accurate.

In my experience… if you spend all your time focusing on what’s wrong with something, you’ll never learn to appreciate what’s right with it.

Every country has its flaws. Every country has points in it’s history that it’s less than proud of. You’ve seen the world, but keep in mind that you’ve seen it primarily as an outsider (even if you’ve spent 5 months in a country). You’re much more intimately familiar with your home country, and all it’s flaws… but people don’t go out of their way to share those flaws with visiting outsiders. It’s true here, and it’s true abroad.

Incidentally… Japan, too, was built on the back of slavery, in particular during the Shōwa era.

Comment on What’s the difference between these word: Custom,Tradition, and culture? by Paula

yes you got it right: though customs, traditions and other kind of stuff that people made up are part of the so called "culture", which it's nothing but a combination of things people has stated as theirs; basically to difference one from another.

People become so used to having tradition that they don't question it.
