Usually, that's brutal simplification of the "reality" around us. But reality is just another word humans made up in order to approximate the world around them. Hence, I don't believe in dogmas or absolute truth.
Only one that counts. Reflects all that's knowable in terms of absolute truth on the subject. All else is philosophical speculation and counterfeit.

With all due respect, you're confused. Only three categories of creatures... angelic, human and food chain. .
You cannot separate man from the food chain. We are also food chain and have been for centuries. It is only in recent times that we have been able to provide a formidable defense to those creatures that see us as a food source.
When you die, you will neither rise, nor fall. You will remain and be absorbed. It is written, and so it shall be.

Shame on me for not reading your introspective profile, again, before assuming objectivity and replying to your logic emasculated posts.
And you have the gall to question MY objectivity????
That's beneath you gb.
As for my "instrospective profile" you do understand rhetoric and what The So Fist stands for don't you?? One doesn't always need to cast light in order to illuminate.

The self needs that balance. It needs to feel the full range of emotions. Temptations, mistakes, selfishness, sickness, disapointments, self-doubt...all of those are human conditions and events. How can a person exist on earth without some days of pure decadence? Come on now....
Believe it or not...
Believe it or not, you were designed with a few unique characteristics which elevate you above the jungle food chain: (1) Self Consciousness
(awareness); (2) Mentality (capacity for rational thought); (3) Volition (free excercise of will); (4) Emotion (appreciations); (5) Conscience
(norms and standards); (6) Percep ...[text shortened]... eachable, wallow in decadence, moan and groan and complain. That was your decision.

Most guys don't need that junk. We get a long just fine without those emotional peaks and valleys. We are not ruled by our emotions. We are not pressure tanks, we do not require venting.
All we require is a bit of comraderie and good health.

Originally posted by uzlessNo. I have a son. And two girls. It's not junk. It's not about "females". I wasn't talking about boys and girls. I'm not talking about gender, though I know from raising kids there are major differences. At the end of the day, though, I am raising human beings that have feelings, Uzless. Emotions and desires rule us, whatever they are. You can deny it. Or call them something else, that's your right. Personal choice and path are what's important in my view.
