If "I think therefore I am" were "I think perforce I am", would we still be quoting it today? How important is word choice?
It doesn't seem like perforce is a good choice for therefore. The word has its place, and it's place is in the dictionary. In the original, Cogito Ergo Sum, ergo has always been translated with therefore, and if some rebel scholar decided to use perforce instead, it probably wouldn't have caught on as well and died naturally.

Do you believe that teenage love is stronger than adult love? or the other way around and why?
It is possible that as people get older, they lose their passion. But I don't think we can make any sweeping statements as teenage love is stronger than adult love. It has nothing to do with how successful your relationships are or how many partners you've had. Could it be that teenager's relationships don't last very long not because they don't love so strongly, but because one loves but the...

"He was acting *SUSPICIOUS."
I thought grammatically "SUSPICIOUSLY; an adverve" matched here as * is an adjective
Actually, either is grammatically correct. The word suspicious should be turned into the adverbial form to make the sense you are thinking of but as an adjective it can also be used absolutely with the verb "act" used intransitively: "(being) Suspicious, he was acting." This sentence means, he while being suspicious in character, acted (as in play or movie).

Pedophilia fits that definition in that the preference for pubescent to mature human...

I am far from able to write a comprehensive answer but in short, Romans used "j" for both "j" and "i" because they didn't have separate letters for them. It's still considered a consanant if the word is really meant to start with "j" instead of "i" and the only way you'd know is to look it up in a dictionary.

Answer to:
Must a Latin preposition always precede its object, or is it OK (for stylistic reasons, perhaps) to sometimes place the preposition after the object?
It is possible for some prepositions to follow its substantive. These are called postpositive prepositions.

Otherwise I have not seen any preposition to follow its substantive.

I'm 18 and I'm having sex with my 17 year old girlfriend, since she is not 18 and underage and I'm adult do I considered I pedophile?
I'm not seeing an answer that I like so here's my say. Don't think what I'm about to tell you is what I necessarily think morally or socially right:
Pedophilia: It's typically defined as "a recurent sexual interest in prepubescent children, reflected in persistent thoughts, fantasies, urges, sexual arousal, and behavior" (American Psychological Association...

If you knew for a fact someone was a pedophile, had acted on their urges, and the police were unable to act, what would you do? Would you take action yourself to protect the innocent children who could be harmed?
I would always take action, whenever possible, to protect anyone, including children, whose well being is threatened. If I knew a pedophile and I knew he had “acted on his urges” – which I assume to mean that he had some kind of sexual encounter with a child, the action I would take depends on if I felt the children he had acted upon were actually harmed, as distinguished from...

If "discedere debeo" in latin means "I ought to leave", what about "discedere non debeo"? Is it "I ought not to leave (I should stay)" or "I do not need to leave"? Does "non" negate the action or the obligation?
Puzzling, almost philosophical debate, on this subject. Very precisely, you're asking if "discedere non debeo" means "I ought not to leave" (I shouldn't do the leaving, but perhaps someone else should) or "I ought to leave not" (I should do something, but not leaving, meaning that whatever I do must result in me staying). I would have to delve more deeply...

What does "between fear and victory, I will conquer" translate to in Latin?

Would you ever make a porno?
yes and I would make it an actual movie. People these days think hiring a bunch of B class actors having sex under the guise of an even crappier plot passes for entertainment. The porno industry needs much more representation.

Normal is the median peak if you were to plot all personalities on a Gaussian curve. There also no normal with respect to the general I believe, but with respect to, say, sexuality, height, and stuff like that. For example, most people are heterosexual, so I would call that the norm. I know a lot of people may disagree with that particular example though.

When someone says “didn’t exactly” or “not exactly” in what they state, EXACTLY what purpose does that adverb serve? If someone says a guy “didn’t exactly love his son,” why don’t they just say “didn’t love his son at all,” period?
Usually these kinds of filler words mean absolutely nothing. WEll. . . ., I'll tell you what. . . Actually I . . . , etc. In this case that person is probably being ironic. When he said he didn't exactly love his son, it most likely meant that he was very brutal to his son. In all other cases, they are filler words to fill in the void of an otherwise simple sentence.

Answer to:
If you give someone a gift and decide you want it back, is it legal to take it back? The gift has been purchased with a Credit Card, but the balance is still outstanding.
No you gave it to the person. Therefore you transferred ownership to that person so you cannot claim something that you no longer own. It doesn't matter if it was once yours. However if you gave it to the person under so and so terms, you can abide by those terms and make out a deal.

Which is better and safer to the body for washing impurities out of dry material? anhydrous acetone or 100% alcohol (ethyl alcohol)...Just a quick answer will do.

Answer to:
What is the difference between a family of elements and elements and elements in the same period?
I'll cite Wikipedia for this. Family is the vertical column of the chart so the elements are arranged by the valence shell. For example, all the halogens have a valence of 7, meaning a formal charge of -1. Since the essence of chemical reactions have to do with the transfer of electrons, you can imagine that the elements in the family have similar physical properties. Period is the...

In a chemical reaction what is the purpose of determining the limiting reagent
So you can calculate your theoretical yield of product. If you need two eggs and two milks to bake a cake, and you have 2 eggs and 1 milk, the actual yield of product can be no more than one cake.
Answer to:
When an alkene is reacted with h2so4 in water why does the double bond break and bond with an OH instead of just an H
H+ is an electrophile. The electronegative sp2 carbon pi bond attacks the H+ from the acid and cleaves the double bond, making a carbocation. Water is a nucleophile and its lone pair attacks the carbon and loses a H+ afterward.
Answer to:
Why is density important to a chemist?
In the lab you might need to weigh out a liquid other than water. Since water is taken to be the reference value of density, 1, at STP, any other liquid such as acetic acid you can't measure the mass straight by measuring the volume.

Lets disregard the age of consent for a second. Do you think a paedophile raping a child is any different then having sex with a child who allows it?
Since the definition of rape is having sex with someone without his or her consent, and since the question asks that we disregard age of consent (meaning statutory rape is out), of course it's different. It wouldn't be rape at all. It doesn't matter if the child doesn't "understand" or whatnot the consequences of having sex at his or her age, he or she consented,...

my opinion on the publicizing and tormenting of pedophile offenders is essentially a modern day witch-hunt. It's disgusting to me. I have nothing against punishing those who would harm children, but our view toward pedophilia is very misguided. which is too bad.

Paedophiles are wicked. But in this PC age, when it is considered wrong to vent hatred at almost anyone for any reason, do you think that some people use them as a legitimate target for all the bile that they can't get rid in any other legitimate way?
First of all, pedophiles are not wicked. You are accusing someone of a crime before the crime has been committed. Child molesters and rapists are wicked since they have by definition committed a crime. Simply being sexually attracted to a child is not a crime nor should it be. You might as well say homosexuals are wicked.
Secondly, it is considered wrong to vent hatred in any form. Anything...

Answer to:
What is 'Pax Americana Technocratica'?
Well "technocratica" is probably "technocrat" (whenever you see -crat, e.g. 'democrat' it's Greek) and it's a noun in the feminine form. Americana is probably an adjective describing it so the full phrase means "American Technocrat Peace." I say probably because these words did not exist in the Roman Empire.
