Dreams
We all have dreams while we sleep, we have many dreams while we sleep but only a few are remember after a nights sleep if any. We talked about if dreams can become reality, is it a coincidence or is it fate? It all depends on what you believe in, if you are a type of person who likes to believe in fate or that things happen for a reason then yea but other people like to just say it was a just a coincidence. I like to believe it is fate or at least that there is more meaning behind it then just a coincidence. I feel like if you think about something a lot in the day and while your trying to sleep then it will effect your dreams because the topic you were thinking about before you sleep is still in your mind. Such as baseball, school, or someone you like, if you think about it enough during the day they chances are you will dream about the same thing, and then chances are you will do something that happened in your dream. Is this just coincidental? I don't think so but in some cases it defiantly can be coincidental.
High paying jobs
We have talked about how much money certain people make off their jobs and how some don't deserve as much as they get paid or how some deserve more that what they make. They are many arguments about this topic, on both sides of the topic. People say that profession athletes don't deserve to make millions of dollars. For the most part i would have to agree that this players are way over paid, but on the other hand i do feel like they deserve it. I feel this way because they do work hard all year around to stay healthily and strong, they also sacrifice a lot to play a professional sport because they are almost always on the road, so they cant spend time with family or friends. The main reason i feel like the deserve what they are being paid is because they are bring so much money in to their teams, sport, and their owners. If they weren't paid so much then all the money would just go to the owners and the people in charge, so it wouldn't be fair to the players which is what happened in 1994 with the players strike. The other side of the argument is that people like teachers or people that help the world be a better place should get paid more. I agree with this too but this is just how life is.

response to Laura Laureano's can virtue be taught?
Can virtue be taught? First of i would like to say that i do agree with Laura's post. I agree with her because I feel as though virtue is something that you are born with. I also agree with her in that people choose not to pay attention to it and do wrong things for the wrong reasons. I also feel like it can be taught, because you can teach someone who uses it the wrong way to use it the right way.
Is it any of our business?
Over the years celebrities, athletes and anyone else who's under the public’s watch has been abused by the media if they have done something wrong in their personal lives. The question I'm asking is this right? It's been happening for decades and is only getting worse as the media grows. One of the biggest and most recent victims of this is Tiger Woods. Is what he did wrong? Yes. Is it any of our business? I'm not sure, in one sense it is his personal life and what he does off the golf course and away from the media show be kept private, but in another sense he is suppose to be a role model to kids and he is a big public figure, and some people will say that you can't just hide this kind of information from the public if he is going to be a role model and doing all of his commercials.
There have been many different types of cases just like this one. The head coach of the Louisville men’s basketball team has also been caught cheating on his wife, not has a extreme as Tiger Woods but still got caught and was made public by the media. Now he will always have that hanging over him and the whole world knows. Lots of people’s lives have been affected by the media just like this, is it alright for the media to do this just because they are dealing with famous people or is it wrong?

repsonse to non christian joining christian church
In response to kolby's non christian joining christian church post i feel as though a person can be a christian to a certain extent. A christian is someone who does good deeds or God' work. God's work consists of doing good, helpful things for others, such as building homes for people who have lost theirs or helping feed the hungry. Anyone can do things like this, so considering this part of being a christian Robert Jenson could do this. The other part is believing in God, which Robert Jenson doesn't so therefore i fell as if he isn't a full christian, but doesn't mean he cant consider himself one and do good things for others.
True love
Many people say that you only have one true love. People search their whole lives looking for their "one true love". But is there only one true love in every ones life's or can you have more than one true love in your live? True love can be anyone where depending on who you are. You can have true love for baseball or any other sport, it doesn't to be the person you love from the opposite sex, you can have more than one true love in your life's, whether its your husband or wife or if its your mother and father, brothers and sisters, sports and anything else that makes you truly happy in life.
Life After Death?
Ever since I was a young child death has been a mystery to me. As we grow up, many things in our lives come and go, including family, pets, and friends. When we lose these close objects in our lives we often believe they go to a better place. Many of us believe this because of our religion and the way we have been raised. But who is to say there is life after death? Many religions express their thoughts through heaven and hell. If you live life the "right" way according to your religion, you will be excepted. If you live your life full of sin you will be punished and live your afterlife in a negative place. Who even knows what happens after life? There is no scientific proof to whether or not there is a negative or positive place to live after death. With that said what we believe happens after life is completely up to inner beliefs.
