I don't know how long you've been trying to "feel" your arms, but from (limited) personal experience it can take days to weeks to months before you really feel anything substantial.

kakarukeys, could you post some links to some chinese sites? ( i read chinese )

(or at least, could you post the chinese of this "small circulation" so i could search on it myself?)

Thanks~

Well? Can we be human without a God? Or any conception of religion for that matter? What is it to be human? And is religion a human invention, and if so, how could we be human without it? These are questions that plague me. What do you guys think??

Strictly speaking, while I don't believe in any religion, I'm not an atheist either. I've found in myself a fundumental desire to believe in and submit to a higher power, and I suspect this is the case for general human nature. And a "God" fits this role perfectly.

I must say, while I've been brought up in a Catholic school and have been exposed to much religious ideas (though they never really forced it down anybody's throat), I never related religion with morals or ethics of any sort. (pretty much the contrary, really) I don't exactly know how I developed my own values and sense of morality, but I suspect a large part of it comes within myself -- I might have obtained the ideas from various sources, but then it is what you accept that really counts.

I guess my reply would be "no" for whether humans can be humans without a God, but strictly speaking the question itself is somewhat vague and the context not clear. If you really want an answer it might help to ask yourself what you really want to ask. It's always so easy for a serious philosophical topic to fall back to mere wordplay.
