quasi-pseudo-answers:
- i believe that the universe does that twisty wrap around thing (i forget the word for what that is) but it's sort of cylindrical and there's that whole idea about how if you can get two points in different spots in the universe to align and there's the presense of a wormhole then you can go through...bleh...something like that...ever read Steven Hawkings?
...oh and i found this...

-well people don't all believe in the same god...nor do people all believe in god in the same way. god, like many things is an entity of social co-construction of ideas about the world and the surrounding universe...i believe utopian socialism (aka - anarchism) is the way to go essentially.
what makes us human? that i have no idea...but i don't think animals have a consiousness ...at least they don't have it in the same manner that we do. also...animals don't have language exactly...so, it's near impossible to formulate ideas and future thoughts without the ability to use language. i mean can you or anyone remember to a time before you were able to speak? no, you can't (at least not as far as any study on the topic of memory has shown)...and why is that? probably because you had no language with which to recall the memory with in your head...to go beyond purely visual memory you have to have some sory of language.
i have no clue how a computer works really...my knowledge there is really rather limited... :-\
i know how to solder though!
