Have you ever thought about who you couldn't live without. Is it your mother or your lover? The question we pose today is if you had to remove your mother or your true love from your life who would you choose? As you can see from the video many people chose their mother, with only a select few choosing their true love. What does this say about human nature or our thought process in general? Post and enjoy!

Communication: Verbal and Nonverbal
Communication takes several forms, but the most common is nonverbal. It is said that 90% of all communication is non-verbal. In this video groups were given cards and had to act out what was on the card - only one person was allowed to talk, the other needed to try to convey something without words. The results proved the point that sometimes our actions don't coincide with our words, which can lead to misinterpretation. Has this ever happened to you?How has someone's or your non-verbal cues led to misinterpretation? Or how has this conveyed a message that may not have been intended? Or, have you intentionally used non-verbal communication to convey a message. Try and guess what each person is trying to communicate to the other. Sometimes the clues are not so obvious.
Religion is the Opiate of the Masses
This video documents our responses to something Karl Marx said about religion. His quote was "Religion is the opiate of the masses." Some of us took the quote and turned it into what inspires and awes us, whether it be the traditional church setting or the natural world. How do you interpret the quote? Are religion and spirituality the same thing or is there a difference? What does religion mean to you?

Deep Thought
The makers were none too pleased. After seven and a half million years, they came to Deep Thought once more, and asked for "the Answer," to which they received the infamous reply; "42."
Deep Thought attested that while they had asked for "the Answer," they had not phrased the proper question. Once they did, 42 would make complete sense.
What you are to do in this Vlog is considerably less difficult than Deep Thought's multi-million year charge. Here, you are to watch and ponder the Deep Questions we pose to you through the videos. They will be posted here with frequency; once a week, unless we are otherwise hindered. We hope you will join us in this endeavor.
I wish you luck!
