    And my magic is the greatest for I learnt the dark arts from my allmighty master......... Mickey Mouse. I have the blue pointed star hat and everything to prove it. Yes I know, you can all start groveling now.

    Love is mother natures way of keeping two parents together until their children are raised to the age where only one parent is necessary for the childrens upbringing.

    TruthSeeker,

    "And before they have children?"

    Your genetic code doesn't know if you have children or not, it just assumes you do if you've been with your partner for a while.

    "Which age are you talking about?"

    Between the age of 5 and 10.

    Damn my alcohol problem. Sometimes it's embarrassing to wake up the next morning and discover you've written martian comments all over a perfectly good thread.

    Allright, another idea from the same show as the insanity concept. Many couples are found to get "bored" with each other and break up in around the three year mark. Researchers believe this is because the time period is enough to concieve, bare, and nuture a child to the point of walking and being able to eat on its own.

    I have a new thought on Love. It is a biological, Phsycological thing that has been integrated into human culture. We must learn to deal with it as it is, not as some mystical force. Love cannot break all bounds, only are believe that it can can makes us do things we didn't have the courage to.

    (I am still a hopless romantic though, can't help it)

    Welcome to realism! No offense or anything, but that ain't a new idea!

    And nothing wrong with being a romantic!

    Yeah I know its nothing new, but I think some people over look all three aspects some times and are left with....... I guess a rather dissmal opinion of love once they begin to rationalize it. And even if I do rationalize it I can still be a romantic, but then again, that's something I can't help.

    And I know you don't agree Nelson, but do you seriously believe Love can do anything, even the completely impossible? - Wait I know the answer to that, I just wanna know why you feel that way.

    Book Suggestion

    The Science of Love - by Anthony Walsh.

    Very good, I highly recommend it. A biological/social/ and Phsycological view of love.

    No, he didn't state that. In any case;

    Argumentum ad hominem
    Appeal to authority
    And an appeal to ignorence.

    I see you did phil 137, or at least a phil subject about critical thinking, or argument or something.. hehe i did it too!! w00t!

    though, does anyone belive that marriage in 'western' is still valid? I predict it will fade, as we become more and more secularised, we move away from traditional thiinking.. agree?
