When Is A Title Not A Title?

The MailOnline featured the picture below on Friday September 17 and I thought it was interesting enough to copy and insert here, along with the appropriate link, of course.

Who Is Christine O'Donnell?



Christine O'Donnell (born August 27, 1969) is an American politician who is the Republican Party nominee in Delaware's 2010 United States Senate special election, which will be held on November 2, 2010.

Christine O'Donnell is an unmarried conservative Christian known for her vocal opposition to abortion, pornography, extramarital sex, and masturbation.

Christine O'Donnell has said the first thing she wants to do when elected is to vote to repeal the health care legislation enacted by Congress in 2010.

Some Rabbi wrote: Religion is a compilation of humanity's yearning to find meaning and purpose. God is not found in the doctrine of religion. Rather, religion is an institution that seeks to find God.

Yearning to find meaning and purpose? Why? Why does there have to be meaning? Or purpose?

Why is it so difficult for a human being to accept that humanity is not special. Is not meaningful? Has no purpose?

It's so obvious.

I didn't fit into the system."

  1. Gene asks:

    "Why is it so difficult for a human being to accept that humanity is not special. Is not meaningful? Has no purpose?"

    And I respond:

    A human being, you ask (you did not write humanity). No purpose to whom, or to what, sir? Not special?

    No purpose to the universe, perhaps. But I have purpose where other people are concerned. I am special to them, for them and with them. I mean something to other people.

    Why do you bother writing anything, Gene, if indeed you own no purpose?

    How are you feeling these days?
