Statement: ';I wasnt being myself'; true or false?
When people say 'I wasnt being myself' how can that be? Is it just an excuse for a silly moment? Surely people are being themselves whatever way they behave, each behaviour being a small part of their overall personality. How can a person be anything other that what they are, which is themselves?Statement: ';I wasnt being myself'; true or false?
FALSE.
when people say this they really mean ';I was being the part of myself that I dont want people to see';
Everyone does it.Statement: ';I wasnt being myself'; true or false?
Normally when a person says you are not being yourself they are merely indicating that you are not acting as they had grown accustomed to you acting. for instance suppose you are normally a shy timid person yet out of the blue you attack someone for seemingly no cause. this puts you out of charcter in the viewers eyes
when i lost my son i walked around ignoring everyone and yelling. does that mean that is the true me?
When people say ';I wasn't being myself'; they probably mean they have acted ';out of character';. For example, if you are someone who is easygoing and rarely in a bad mood but once in a great while fly into a rage over something said or done to you, you may think that you were not being yourself or acted uncharacteristically.
You are right, but often for many people they don't know who 'themselves' are. People wear many masks which they present to the world, a different one at work, at home, out socializing etc..
They are defence mechanisms to keep themselves safe and often they are not even aware of it, sometimes though the mask slips and part of the true self emerges.
If they are conscious of this 'gaff' they may, in defence say 'I wasn't being myself' and they may even believe it, but often for the observer it is an insight into that person's character that they would rather you didn't see.
The less masks someone has the more secure and self assured a person is likely to be, well grounded and living in the now.
i guess that being ';ones self'; is when your body and mind are at a balanced level for the longest time whilst awake, ie. they have rested enough, all the chemicals in the body are in balance etc.
So to ';not be ones self'; would be when a factor, such as sleep deprivation or chemical imbalance, would effect both the body and the mind causing changes to the ones personality.
For example, if you drank a large volume of alcohol, which shuts off parts of your brain and lowers your inhibition along with other things, would you term yourself as being your ';true self';? i wouldn't, a physiological change has occured inside your brain physically changing your brain causing personality changes.
It may not even have to be as effective a task as drinking, changes in ones chemical ballance can be caused by hearing bad news, not enough sleep, being told ';i love you'; all of these things will effect you and your mental state
so in summery, lol, i think its true
It's a term to describe a moment of just being human.
Being Silly is an intrinsic right of being a human being, so it really doesn't need an excuse - it's just the way we are.
It probably means that they did something out of character, outside of their usual behavior. It really is part of them, though. It might not show itself too often, or maybe we're good at hiding it from others.
There is really so much that makes up one's self, so many things. So many people don't realize how complex they are, and the potential they have of being inpredictable.
You definitely have this figured out unless they having outer body experiences which don't exist. then it is always them being who they truly are.
I think you're answering your own question - it's just a question of whether we're prepared to accept responsibility for our own actions. Once you do you're more likely to act with pure motivation with a good heart.
From a Buddhist point of view we all have delusions which stems from our karma. Also everything lacks inherent existence and there is no 'you' in the sense of an ego identity. Freud got it wrong methinks.
Have fun.....
well sometimes ppl pretend/try to be something or someone else..could be bcuz of pressure,for want of attention and friends etc..ppl adapt n change according to their likes n dislikes.
There is soo much about a person that he/she wouldnt even know yet!Some small character which is deep inside,some big talent hiding under the skin..but eventually some moments bring it out in such cases,they dont seem like 'themselves' but they are!

Should auditors be jailed for giving false statements?
I believe auditors are liable for a custodial penalty for making false statements, depending on the seriousness of the offence, and probably on whether it's a repeat offence.
That's speaking from NSW, Australia.
Should they be jailed?
Maybe not for a first offence ~ probably some form of community service would be more useful, but if they are a repeat offender, and particularly if what they have done has caused hardship to people, then I would give a qualified yes.
Qualified because it would really depend on the individual case and the circumstances.
Most of the time, prison is the LEAST useful of solutions, but there comes a point past which nothing else can be done.
Cheers :-)Should auditors be jailed for giving false statements?
Yes, there is too much graft going on.Should auditors be jailed for giving false statements?

This sort of question is common among deep thinkers. I like the part about cavemen and fire. Can you image cavemen looking at the moon and imagining traveling there? But then maybe they did think about it.
If I were to look out the window one misty morning to see a group of little gray space travelers collecting plants from my back yard, it would not surprise me.
I am agnostic, but if I die and discover that there is a loving creator standing ready to apologize to me for all the suffering that I am going through in my life, I would cry from relief. I agree with you that The Unknown is only what has not been discovered yet. To refuse to believe in the possibilites of all things shows an unwillingness to venture out of the Cave.

That's kinda like asking someone to show you something that noone's ever seen before, and then they cut the inside of an apple open without lokoing at it and show it to you. (the idea is that noones seen that specific apple core). Of course there WERE unknown unknowns, but you can never prove that they are currently existing because they haven't been considered yet. However this is, well, really likely. That they exist, I mean.
Sorry, I think my analogy was unclear. It's just that I remembered a story fron when I was a child ^_^';Do not doubt the unknown unknown'; Do you think this statement is true or false?
True. Everything that is known now was once not known. Discovering something is not the same thing as creating it....it is only dis-covering (uncovering) what has always been there.
Well you've made a compelling argument. Who can disagree?
You... pretty much just answered your own question.

Catholics only please: Would you please verify if the following statement is true or false. No offence meant?
The official position of the Roman Catholic Church on salvation is that a person must believe in Jesus Christ AND be baptized AND receive the Eucharist along with the other sacraments AND obey the decrees of the Roman Catholic Church AND perform meritorious works AND not die with any mortal sins.Catholics only please: Would you please verify if the following statement is true or false. No offence meant?
False.
Did you get that from ';gotquestions.org';?
If so, please ignore everything what they say about Catholicism; they only ';look'; smart because they have a ';.org'; at the end of their URL, but in fact they're pretty dumb when it comes to judging Catholics.
Try other websites like
http://www.scripturecatholic.com
http://www.davidmacd.com/catholic/review…
These sites explain everything pretty good.
Plus: Did you know that the Catholic Church was established by Jesus? Catholics were the first Christians, and it's the true church.
EDIT: Thanks :D
Take a look at James 2:14-25.
There it says:
';What good is it, my brothers, if a man claims to have faith but has no deeds? Can such faith save him? Suppose a brother or sister is without clothes and daily food. If one of you says to him, ';Go, I wish you well; keep warm and well fed,'; but does nothing about his physical needs, what good is it? In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead.
But someone will say, ';You have faith; I have deeds.';
Show me your faith without deeds, and I will show you my faith by what I do.
You believe that there is one God. Good! Even the demons believe that—and shudder.
You foolish man, do you want evidence that faith without deeds is useless? Was not our ancestor Abraham considered righteous for what he did when he offered his son Isaac on the altar? You see that his faith and his actions were working together, and his faith was MADE COMPLETE by what he did. And the scripture was fulfilled that says, ';Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness,';and he was called God's friend. You see that a person is justified by what he does and not by faith alone.
In the same way, was not even Rahab the prostitute considered righteous for what she did when she gave lodging to the spies and sent them off in a different direction? As the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without deeds is dead.';
This means that if we have faith, we'll WANT to to good stuff and obey God.
If someone claims to have faith, but doesn't even try to be good and do his best to obey God, then his faith is just not existent.
There's also Matthew7:20(';by their fruit you will recognize them';), and Matthew 12:33(';ake a tree good and its fruit will be good, or make a tree bad and its fruit will be bad, for a tree is recognized by its fruit.';).
It's a bit hard to explain, but it's not ';faith+works';, but your faith will bring forward good deeds, showing that you do want to obey God; just do your best.
:)
EDIT again:
Well, let's put it that way: It is required evidence.
Just think of ';actions speak louder than words';.
It clearly says so in the Bible, and some other Christian denominations will also tell you this(it's not just a Catholic Thing.)
Here's another Bible quote:
';Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of my Father';
Proper, real faith CAUSES you to obey God.
http://www.scripturecatholic.com/justifi…Catholics only please: Would you please verify if the following statement is true or false. No offence meant?
Its true! Catholic teaching exalts human effort at the expense of Christ.
Anyone who thinks that the Catholic Church is really changing its core teachings is a million miles away from the truth. This is taken from a Reformed Catholic who has written a excellent book of his life in the Catholic Church and how he was converted to Christianity.
False.
No matter what someone may tell you to the contrary, the Catholic Church teaches that salvation is by the grace of God alone. NOTHING ELSE.
The confusion lies in when we explain how we get that grace - through faith and works (that is works done for God's glory, not your own) per Ephesians 2:8-10.
The sacraments are some of God's many ways of conveying saving grace to us.
While the Catechism does say that one must be Catholic to be saved, it ALSO says that since God is merciful, He can and will save those who, ';through no fault of their own, do not know'; the Catholic Church to be God's church. So ultimately it really says that any believer can be saved.
Ummmmm...nope.
The official position of the Roman Catholic Church is that JESUS saves. There is no formula. There is no way to earn salvation. It's up to the Lord, and that's the end of it.
If a person doesn't have the opportunity to be baptized, s/he can still be saved. If a person doesn't have the opportunity to receive the Eucharist (or any other Sacrament), s/he can still be saved. If a person doesn't know what the decrees of the RCC are and can't be sure s/he is following them, s/he can still be saved. If a person never performs a meritorious work, s/he can still be saved.
If a person willingly commits a serious mortal sin (i.e., murder, denouncing Christ, adultery, etc.) without being pressured to do so and refuses to repent of that sin his/her soul would certainly be at peril, but all Christian religions believe that.
False.
“Those also can attain to salvation who through no fault of their own do not know the Gospel of Christ or His Church, yet sincerely seek God and moved by grace strive by their deeds to do His will as it is known to them through the dictates of conscience. Nor does Divine Providence deny the helps necessary for salvation to those who, without blame on their part, have not yet arrived at an explicit knowledge of God and with His grace strive to live a good life.” (Lumen Gentium 16)

True.
And I hope everyone caught the flying nun above....quoting: ';Plus: Did you know that the Catholic Church was established by Jesus? Catholics were the first Christians, and it's the true church.';
Three lies in one sentence, the Trinity of Lies. Jesus did not establish the Catholic church; Catholics were not the first Christians; and it is not the true church. It is ';a'; church, one of many Christian denominations.
Peace.
false
The Church teaches that good deeds and faith and forgivness that comes only through the grace and mercy of the Lord is what gives you eternal life.

people use religion to hide behind their homophobia and hatred and use it in the 'name of god'..
ye all drive me insane!!!
False.
Did you get that from ';gotquestions.org';?
If so, please ignore everything what they say about Catholicism; they only ';look'; smart because they have a ';.org'; at the end of their URL, but in fact they're pretty dumb when it comes to judging Catholics.
Try other websites like
http://www.scripturecatholic.com
http://www.davidmacd.com/catholic/review…
These sites explain everything pretty good.
Plus: Did you know that the Catholic Church was established by Jesus? Catholics were the first Christians, and it's the true church.
EDIT: Thanks :D
Take a look at James 2:14-25.
There it says:
';What good is it, my brothers, if a man claims to have faith but has no deeds? Can such faith save him? Suppose a brother or sister is without clothes and daily food. If one of you says to him, ';Go, I wish you well; keep warm and well fed,'; but does nothing about his physical needs, what good is it? In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead.
But someone will say, ';You have faith; I have deeds.';
Show me your faith without deeds, and I will show you my faith by what I do.
You believe that there is one God. Good! Even the demons believe that—and shudder.
You foolish man, do you want evidence that faith without deeds is useless? Was not our ancestor Abraham considered righteous for what he did when he offered his son Isaac on the altar? You see that his faith and his actions were working together, and his faith was MADE COMPLETE by what he did. And the scripture was fulfilled that says, ';Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness,';and he was called God's friend. You see that a person is justified by what he does and not by faith alone.
In the same way, was not even Rahab the prostitute considered righteous for what she did when she gave lodging to the spies and sent them off in a different direction? As the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without deeds is dead.';
This means that if we have faith, we'll WANT to to good stuff and obey God.
If someone claims to have faith, but doesn't even try to be good and do his best to obey God, then his faith is just not existent.
There's also Matthew7:20(';by their fruit you will recognize them';), and Matthew 12:33(';ake a tree good and its fruit will be good, or make a tree bad and its fruit will be bad, for a tree is recognized by its fruit.';).
It's a bit hard to explain, but it's not ';faith+works';, but your faith will bring forward good deeds, showing that you do want to obey God; just do your best.
:)
EDIT again:
Well, let's put it that way: It is required evidence.
Just think of ';actions speak louder than words';.
It clearly says so in the Bible, and some other Christian denominations will also tell you this(it's not just a Catholic Thing.)
Here's another Bible quote:
';Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of my Father';
Proper, real faith CAUSES you to obey God.
http://www.scripturecatholic.com/justifi…Catholics only please: Would you please verify if the following statement is true or false. No offence meant?
Its true! Catholic teaching exalts human effort at the expense of Christ.
Anyone who thinks that the Catholic Church is really changing its core teachings is a million miles away from the truth. This is taken from a Reformed Catholic who has written a excellent book of his life in the Catholic Church and how he was converted to Christianity.
False.
No matter what someone may tell you to the contrary, the Catholic Church teaches that salvation is by the grace of God alone. NOTHING ELSE.
The confusion lies in when we explain how we get that grace - through faith and works (that is works done for God's glory, not your own) per Ephesians 2:8-10.
The sacraments are some of God's many ways of conveying saving grace to us.
While the Catechism does say that one must be Catholic to be saved, it ALSO says that since God is merciful, He can and will save those who, ';through no fault of their own, do not know'; the Catholic Church to be God's church. So ultimately it really says that any believer can be saved.
Ummmmm...nope.
The official position of the Roman Catholic Church is that JESUS saves. There is no formula. There is no way to earn salvation. It's up to the Lord, and that's the end of it.
If a person doesn't have the opportunity to be baptized, s/he can still be saved. If a person doesn't have the opportunity to receive the Eucharist (or any other Sacrament), s/he can still be saved. If a person doesn't know what the decrees of the RCC are and can't be sure s/he is following them, s/he can still be saved. If a person never performs a meritorious work, s/he can still be saved.
If a person willingly commits a serious mortal sin (i.e., murder, denouncing Christ, adultery, etc.) without being pressured to do so and refuses to repent of that sin his/her soul would certainly be at peril, but all Christian religions believe that.
False.
“Those also can attain to salvation who through no fault of their own do not know the Gospel of Christ or His Church, yet sincerely seek God and moved by grace strive by their deeds to do His will as it is known to them through the dictates of conscience. Nor does Divine Providence deny the helps necessary for salvation to those who, without blame on their part, have not yet arrived at an explicit knowledge of God and with His grace strive to live a good life.” (Lumen Gentium 16)

True.
And I hope everyone caught the flying nun above....quoting: ';Plus: Did you know that the Catholic Church was established by Jesus? Catholics were the first Christians, and it's the true church.';
Three lies in one sentence, the Trinity of Lies. Jesus did not establish the Catholic church; Catholics were not the first Christians; and it is not the true church. It is ';a'; church, one of many Christian denominations.
Peace.
false
The Church teaches that good deeds and faith and forgivness that comes only through the grace and mercy of the Lord is what gives you eternal life.
I just posted this on my blog to answer a similar question posed to me:

God bless!

A Catholic once told me that she earned her salvation.
They would not be able to follow those rules.
not a catholic anymore but yes that's what they taught us in catholic school
oh for god's sake!
i've been raised in ireland and we're all meant to be beaten into catholicism!..
i hate religion!!t's soo ridiculous!!

If S = {x | x^2 < 4} and T = {w | -2 < w < 2}, then S = T. Would this statement be true or false?
It is true:
S = { x | x^2 %26lt; 4}
S = {x | x %26lt; +sqrt(4), x %26gt; -sqrt(4)}
S = {x | x %26lt; 2, x %26gt; -2}

F(x) = sec x. Let x and 2x be in Dom f. Determine whether the following statement is true or false:?
f(2x) = ((f(x))^2)/(2-(f(x))^2)F(x) = sec x. Let x and 2x be in Dom f. Determine whether the following statement is true or false:?
You want to know if
sec 2x = [ sec^2 x ] / [ 2 - sec^2 x ]
So let's work backwards. Start by taking the reciprocal of both sides:
1 / sec 2x ? [ 2 - sec^2 x ] / [sec^2 x]
Since secant is the reciprocal of cosine:
cos 2x ? cos^2 x [ 2 - sec^2 x ]
Multiply through by cos^2 x on the RHS:
cos 2x ? 2 cos^2 x - cos^2 x * sec^2 x
cos 2x ? 2 cos^2 x - 1.
So, does equality hold on the last line?
Good luck.
