To help you.

 

[Darth]

Huh? I dont really get your post. Do you mean we are on this planet to help others or that we are on eGO to help others?

 

[Smiley]

Its Nice to be Nice to be Nice to Nice people.

 

[Sexy Beast]

While it's generally a good idea to be kind and courteous to those around you, that is not what we are here for.

 

[Ledzo-INACTIVE]

I think he was meaning that , he want an answer to the question which is :

What are the others on earth for ?
Even though you are an earth to help the others.

Got it ?
Hope it helped..

 

[Ledzo-INACTIVE]

I think , that , Peace & Love is better than War & agony...

 

[Grimm911]

That is a question that has no correct answer...

It just depends on who you ask.

 

[Persian Elite]

Karma, do unto others as you'd have them do unto you, live and let live..........Read the book "Everything I Really need to know I learned in Kindergarten" pretty much sums everything up. Here ya go .....

All I really need to know about how to live and what to do and how to be I learned in kindergarten. Wisdom was not at the top of the graduate school mountain, but there in the sand pile at school.
These are the things I learned:

* Share everything.
* Play fair.
* Don't hit people.
* Put things back where you found them.
* Clean up your own mess.
* Don't take things that aren't yours.
* Say you're sorry when you hurt somebody.
* Wash your hands before you eat.
* Flush.
* Warm cookies and cold milk are good for you.
* Live a balanced life - learn some and think some and draw and paint and sing and dance and play and work every day some.
* Take a nap every afternoon.
* When you go out in the world, watch out for traffic, hold hands and stick together.
* Be aware of wonder. Remember the little seed in the Styrofoam cup: the roots go down and the plant goes up and nobody really knows how or why, but we are all like that.
* Goldfish and hamsters and white mice and even the little seed in the Styrofoam cup - they all die. So do we.
* And then remember the Dick-and-Jane books and the first word you learned - the biggest word of all - LOOK.

Everything you need to know is in there somewhere. The Golden Rule and love and basic sanitation. Ecology and politics and equality and sane living.

Sounds like some of the ideals that ego stands for.

* Don't hit people.

Ok, If I have some warm cookies and cold milk, and someone comes by and takes a cookie......I'm hitting them, really hard, in the face.

Where I come from you take a cookie that isn't yours, than you pay the piper (my fist).

 

[Shadow19]

Idk about everyone else but, I'm here to troll you. Derp?

 

[Smiley]

[blackhawksniper]

[Frank Booth]

His statement can be seen as a variant on the barber paradox, though not a complete one.

Suppose there is a town with just one male barber; and that every man in the town keeps himself clean-shaven: some by shaving themselves, some by attending the barber. It seems reasonable to imagine that the barber obeys the following rule: He shaves all and only those men in town who do not shave themselves.

Under this scenario, we can ask the following question: Does the barber shave himself?

Asking this, however, we discover that the situation presented is in fact impossible:

If the barber does not shave himself, he must abide by the rule and shave himself.

If he does shave himself, according to the rule he will not shave himself.

His statement is:

if it is true we are hear to help others what are the others here for??

The correct answer is that we are here to help others, others are here to be helped.


Here is a good story and answering questions like these:
