I, personally, believe that, in the future, the existence of intelligent Extra Terrestrial life in the universe will be seen to be self evident, and people will look back and laugh at the ignorance of the past, much in the same way we do today when we remember people used to think the earth was flat, or that it didn’t orbit the Sun. Slowly but surely scientists are beginning to agree that it is mathematically impossible for intelligent life not to exist with our planet in the endless expanse of the universe, and the trillions of planets it contains....

A kiss is an intimate and private act. To see evidence that someone is kissing someone that they shouldn’t (a taboo) gives us all a guilty feeling of pleasure. Add in a celebrity kiss, and we have newsworthy headlines. Here are the top 10 taboo kisses caught on camera. 10 Amber Rose and 5-Year-Old Son In 2011, a Toronto police officer suggested that women should avoid “dressing like sluts” if they wanted to reduce the risk of sexual assault....

10 Yamato Tanooka Seven-year-old Yamato Tanooka of Hokkaido, Japan, was throwing rocks at people during a family outing in summer 2016. His parents wanted to teach him a lesson. So they pulled over by the side of a road next to the woods, removed him from the car, and drove away. They returned five minutes later, hoping that their punishment had worked. But he was already gone. Yamato remained missing for six days....

It began innocently enough, with a less-than-perfect chart reading during a routine eye exam. Before long, I was referred from optometrists to ophthalmologists to neuro-ophthalmologists… and no one had a definitive diagnosis. When you’re stumping doctors whose titles have seven syllables, there’s a problem. The ordeal lasted nearly two years, during which time my vision slowly deteriorated. Today, at age 41, it stands at 20/70 corrected. It isn’t pretty but, as the following list shows, things could be a hell of a lot worse....

Although still in its infancy, TikTok (named Douyin in China) was listed as the seventh most popular app of the last decade. Users, particularly young people, have flocked to the app to share clips of them dancing, lip-synching and performing short skits.[1] Like it or loathe it, there is no denying its vast global appeal. But TikTok’s short history has been mired with controversy. A British inquiry raised concerns about poor data safeguarding....

As society creeps further and further into the dark corners of the woods, the untouchable expanses of desert, and uninhabitable heights of the mountains and the freezing wastelands north and south of us, society also leaves something behind. As we see trees being cut down to make way for a housing development, we also see entire city blocks abandoned, left to the vagrants and the rats. As we see freeways and bypasses carving straight lines from A to B, we leave behind those dark, winding roads, only to be traversed by the inhabitants, the explorers, and lost....

Arborsculpture is the use of living trees to create a desired shape or structure, something like bonsai on a grand scale. Axel Erlandson is considered the greatest of all arborsculptors and his ‘Circus trees’ are still popular attractions. Through directing the growth of the tree while alive, it is also possible to create unique pieces of furniture by harvesting the wood once it takes on the desired form. While Erlandson’s work, seen here (http://www....

The term “Kiwiana” is used to describe certain items that represent New Zealand’s history and cultural heritage. They are either particularly unique to the country, or have been adopted to such an extent that they are now considered to be cultural icons.

Star Trek: The Final Frontier, Director: William Shatner [1989] I had to include at least one Star Trek film. It was a tough pick between this and Nemsis, but this one wins. The crew of the Federation starship Enterprise is called to Nimbus III, the Planet of Intergalactic Peace. They are to negotiate in a case of kidnapping only to find out that the kidnapper is a relative of Spock....

In an August 19, 1966, interview, an important question was asked to The Beatles. “American people keep asking you guys about Vietnam. Does this seem useful? Why should they ask you about it, you’re successful entertainers?” Lennon responds, “Because Americans always ask showbiz people what they think, and so do the British.” In the 21st century, celebrity opinions hold influence on the media. The persona of a successful musician or actor is extremely powerful....

The SAS’s first operation was launched on 16th November, 1941. It went disastrously wrong (with 40 men out of 62 being killed or captured) when sandstorms and 35mph winds scattered the SAS drops, as wells as making it impossible for them to find much of their equipment. Their second was far more successful – trucks from the Long Range Desert Group (another unit operating behind German lines) were used to drop off teams of SAS at four airfields, where they sneaked onto the runaway, and planted time-delayed explosives onto the planes before sneaking away....

Top 10 Discontinued Sodas 10 Flamin’ Hot Cheetos Cheetos have been a lunchbox food for many kids since they were introduced over half a century ago, but it wasn’t until the 1990s that the Flamin’ Hot variety would grace cafeterias, for better or worse. Though undeniably tasty, the popular spicy snack was banned in several school districts in New Mexico, California, and Illinois because of its lack of nutritional value, and, reportedly, because of an unintended side effect that might have panicked parents....

My answer is that St Thomas Aquinas gave some very convincing arguments in support of the idea that reason can prove faith. I believe that a greater study of his works, with some of the more modern writers will help each person to draw the appropriate conclusions- but we should give equal time to both sides.
