If you take it from an evolutionary point of view, those who had religion survived and reproduced. It seems to give us something to fall back on when our own morality fails us. It also brings the whole community together and helps build a shared morality that everyone agrees on. Every religion uses itself as a foundation for morality, although over the years religions have changed and the morality has become obscured and outdated. I consider myself a loose Irish Catholic. I believe that we should take everything from religion and decide ourselves whether that morality makes sense. We should not allow religion to take our identities and our freedoms. We should not have to take the whole package of one religion. We should be able to accept parts of all religions and dismiss the out dated parts. Its nice to have objects that show our belief of morality, an object which we can hold on to or feel when our morals are being pushed. However these objects should not be forced upon us. Catholici...

We are now living in a world completely linked together. The internet and other such things has given us a vast amount of globalisation. As consumers we have a vast amount of choice and selection at our disposable. If you put the time and effort into a purchase to learn about the market then you are almost guaranteed the best deal for your money whether it be in an online shop or a shop just down the road. This means that the best companies will be giving you the best value for the quality of product. This does not mean that the most expensive product has the best quality because there are still companies out there who are trying to screw the customer up. These sneaky companies come and go and so do their products but if you try and understand why, then you will have the best chance of getting the best product. And yet some people out there still spend ridiculous amounts of money on fancy wine, iphones and mercedes-benz. These products do excel in some areas and attributes but the cost...

I really hope that I do not have any anger problems. I think it is more like anger solutions. There are some people out there that are constantly and truly happy. These people do not like to start arguments and would gladly help you out whenever they can. These people really piss me off. If they want to start a new utopia then go ahead, and just like the nazis, they will fail. I believe the only way you will get someone's true opinion on a matter is to get them angry. Anger gives us an excuse and a mask to show our true selves. If vicious arguments didn't solve things then they would not exist. It can be very frustrating when one person opens themselves up to another and they respond with no opinion and resolve. You will probably notice that there is two types of happy people: the first is that of people who are happy doing little nothings all day and the second is the happiness you get from reaching a resolution with someone through an argument. The first comes and goes, I wou...

Before I begin, I would just like to say that I appreciate the diversity that we can create within society. I also respect revolutionists who go against the norm and love to question everything, for example vegetarians. This, however, means that I will judge you almost immediately for your decisions to see how strong willed and opinionated you are. Now onto the juicy stuff. Seems to me that these vegetarians think that by not eating meat, then no one will kill any animals for them. This is true of course but at what cost? If we were all vegetarians then no one would want to farm animals. Farmers would then have to farm something that people want. Just think of all the cows and pigs that will never be born and never graze and have a happy long life. This is clearly a supply and demand situation. Consumers want to eat the energy-rich delicious meat of animals, farmers are happy to raise and sell these beautiful animals and animal rights activists are happy at the way they are treated. Ca...

This brief tutorial should allow users to understand what is inside a computer and hopefully give them enough confidence to create their own desktop from basic components. Komplett sometimes allow you to build your own desktop online and allow users to select the specific components they want in their desktop. If this is available, I would highly recommend using it. I am only going to go through how to build the desktop from components. This will not include what monitors to buy or any other accessories. These accessories generally have a common interface so it really doesn't matter what you choose as most will work. I will leave this up to the discretion of the user. Here are some of the components that I would consider vital for a personal computer: Motherboard Case Processor Memory Graphics card DVD player Hard drive Power supply Operating system Where To Buy? There are several places online which offer great offers for computer components. These include videocardshop.co.uk, kom...

Yes, before you begin reading, this is another rant about Internet Explorer (IE) 6. The experience I have with this browser compels me to write an article about it. The Internet is such a dynamic place that by not having the most up-to-date software you are missing out on the wonders that Web 2.0 can bring and by having one of the most out-of-date browsers is just asking for trouble. Just like others before me, I have worked in helpdesk which means I spent most of my time saying “Is it plugged in?” to customers and staff alike. It was such a relief when I started working as a Web Developer as now I spend most of my time saying “Is your browser Internet Explorer 6?” which is a little more exciting but still very annoying. As a Web Developer, I spend a lot more time maintaining code rather than creating it. Even someone with the best foresight in the world cannot create code which can lead to hassle free maintaining. This usually means I will make a small update to some functionality in...
