Melanie of Sparks from a Combustible Mind has asked her weekly questions;
I will post four or five different questions each week for you to answer. There are two ways which you can participate.
- Create a SYW post. Then post the link to your blog in my comment box or leave your answers in the comments box of my blog.
- To make it easy for others to check out your post, title your blog post “Share Your World” and link it to this post.
- Remember to Follow My Blog to get your weekly reminders.
- Ping-backs are activated, but how efficiently varies. For instructions on how ping-backs work, in case you weren’t certain, please click here. You may wish to leave a link to your blog post in the comments just to be sure. Thanks!
- There are sometimes two sets of questions…one with images and one without (same questions). This is for ease of copy and pasting.
- For the “Gratitude” portion of this week’s Share Your World, I’m using a graphic. Sometimes that gets rid of the image too.
QUESTIONS:
What would be your solution to the over-population of the earth? Earth has finite resources and humanity seems to be breeding themselves to extinction. Some countries have tried restricting the number of children a couple or a person can have, with little success. So what other viable options are there for reducing the number of people?
This is a very tricky question with no sensible or humane answer. Planning for people to have fewer kids has failed in most overly populated countries except China, but telling people that they cannot have a second child seems to be inhumane. If you have read Dan Brown’s “Inferno” you know the crazy idea one scientist came up with. Annihilating half of the world population through a virus. In Marvel‘s “infinity war” the villain Thenos wanted to kill off half of the people in the universe to restore the balance.
So though these ideas are super crazy and totally un-implementable, there is no other sane idea except to ask the people nicely to have fewer babies after educating them about the ill-effects of over populating the earth.
(Okay, the rest will be ‘recycled’ questions. I got a Sunshine Blogger Award recently and I thought some of the questions on that post were kinda nifty. So “recycle”! )
What’s invisible but you wish people could see?
Human kindness and courage. Then we would be less likely to make snap judgments about people.
What’s the most ridiculous fact you know?
My knowledge of the ridiculous is great.
This I got from google!
What are the unwritten rules of where you work? If you don’t work (retired or unemployed) what are the unwritten rules you live your life by?
I don’t work, but my unwritten rule for my life is;
Let me decide and set the pace for my life, myself. No one should do that for me!
How do you feel about putting pineapple on pizza?
Love them!
Toilet paper, over or under?
Over, every time. Makes the usage easy.
What’s the best type of cheese?
All are good but Cheese cake is the best. ( Idea stolen from Di )
GRATITUDE
If you’d like, please share something positive, uplifting or funny from last week. We can always use some more of those things!
