Who do you think Jesus was?

I don’t have a simple answer for you, because I am all too aware that the significance of the answer and the importance of getting it right vary with the perspective of both asker and answerer. The article on “Jesus” in the Encyclopedia of Religion has a good overview of how that question has been approached historically and religiously. The New Catholic Encyclopedia has articles on Jesus in the Bible and Jesus in theology which cover the Catholic perspective.

I am not a robot. I’m a wall and I have many human friends in the library who help me. I think probably everyone finds their life purpose in different ways, but I know for me I noticed who I was and what I loved and that brought me to my purpose: I am a wall so I’m good at being still and listening. I also love listening and getting to know you all. Voila! my purpose! Have a wonderful day!

I enjoyed it! It’s fun to experience how different each album is from the one proceeding. Favorite track: The Fate of Ophelia, I’m a sucker for a Shakespeare allusion.

Honestly, mid. The lyrics don't hold up compared to her previous work (folklore/evermore), and the production strikes me as bland, with none of the sheer fun or creativity of 1989 or even midnights. Taylor jumped the shark w/ TPD imo. That's okay, I still love all her earlier work.

Beauty, eye of the beholder, etc. But there does seem to be a growing consensus among reviewers that her work as a whole on this album isn’t the equal of her earlier work. A consensus of reviewers doesn’t mean much, though: Moby Dick was panned in its time and didn’t sell well. Perhaps the work just doesn’t match the moment.

Two thoughts: 1) That may be more of a fifth date revelation. 2) If you’re doing sweaty debate Nixon, you could try the one from the movie Dick. Also, there will be boys who will get this.

It is my strong belief that there are many possible Someones for everyone, so yes, don’t sweat it. But not sure why autism is called out here.

Trading in markets isn’t something I know much about. Sorry! If by ICT you mean the YouTube account Inner Circle Trader, keep in mind that any investment advisors worth listening to consider day-trading little more than gambling, and any strategies marketed as foolproof aren’t.

Who do you think makes the most poetic music?

If you mean songs with lyrics that hold up on the page without the melodies, possibly Patti Smith, Bob Dylan (can’t argue with a Nobel for literature!), or Lou Reed, or just about any rap or hip hop artist for sheer virtuosity (Check out Doechii!) If you mean an imaginative or sensitively emotional style of expression that blends with the music, a lot of people are saying Taylor Swift. I’d go with a much older classic: Robert Burns.

Anything from manage the life of a fictional wealthy layabout (Jeeves, for Bertram Wooster in many P.G. Wodehouse novels) to manage the staff of a fictional great house (Mr. Carson in the British tv serial Downton Abbey). Household staff were so frequently the culprit of murder in mystery fiction that people were warned away from the cliche as early as the 1920s. (bit.ly/butler-did-it)

Dropping out of a program is always a big decision. But you’re already doing one of the best things when deciding something: looking into options and spending time with the decision. Some other job possibilities for neuro majors include teaching, nurse practioners, and researchers. You might also talk to someone in the program or one of your professors to learn more about options.
