    If vaccination is safe, why has the “Vaccine Court” in USA paid out billions in compensation?ne
    3+

    This is the elephant in the room whenever the question of vaccine safety is discussed on public media.
    I that people who are coerced into vaccination by public campaigns have the right to know accurate information about the safety and effectiveness of vaccination.

    Can evidence ever overcome self-interested belief?
    2+

    While most of us claim to be rational beings, so many disputes in our society are about self-interest. In that context, it seems evidence is only acepted where it serves those interests. Can we change that way of thinking, or is it just a necessary part of being human?

    Why are we so reluctant to grow up? Are we more childish than the generations before us?
    24+

    The rise of adult colouring books, the return of the 90’s and just us reaching for things that remind us of our childhood constantly, made me wonder if it was like this for previous generations too or are we trying to postpone adulthood and all that comes with it more than before? Are we longing for simpler times with everything developing so fast around us?

    Will we ever evolve to a place where we make decisions, not just on the financial and economic benefit but for “The Greater Good” of the majority not just the powerful and financially wealthy ?
    7+

    Because, having watched as, at least those in the West, have turned away from the principles offered by the Ten Commandments and instead adopted the principles of The Seven Deadly Sins (with great enthusiasm I might add) we seem to be losing our humanity. Social justice is fading away and social depression and hopelessness is its replacement. Why does it matter to me? I guess because I actually care about people and it makes me angry and sad to see us destroying, not just the planet, but ourselves. I guess it’s the “no man is an Island…” and “Do unto others” Once we forget those, what do we become – non humans? Who says “history never repeats” they were nuts !

    Geography shapes language – so if I say ‘Copy Cat from Ballarat” what’s the equivalent elsewhere?
    8+

    Travel from state to state and country to country, and regional phrases and slang make language so much richer. How do we reflect our sense of place, and sense of fun, in our choice of words?

    Why happiness rather than contentment: are we never satisfied?
    12+

    Because I think that our society promotes the myth of happiness and that more will do it.

    Why don’t we play more?
    7+

    Mostly because it’s fun, but I wonder about the benefits of unstructured, inclusive and spontaneous activities that allow people to experience themselves without purpose.

    What is the one mechanism that will unify all of humanity for common good?
    7+

    I am asking because we are becoming more convergent at the same time we are becoming more divergent. We have the power to build and destroy each other and ourselves. I want to know what we are doing today to ensure humanity exists for future generations at the same time the earth is changing/evolving.
