Love is dead. Love is merely a perversion of mankind's primordial drive to reproduce. Disease and the need for protection in prehistoric times drove the species to adopt the concept of manogamy.
wow dude, no dice....... Love isn't dead. There is still a physical need for it, and due to the way its been idealized - a psycological need also. Everyone here, though debating what it is, wants to be loved. Because of natural drives and now long ingrained social ideals. Love isn't dead, no matter how we can rationalize it and understand what it is through science.
I agree with Cactus... Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image! But it's hard to rationalize Love (if not impossible, at all)... there's a great limitation on that... Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image! Love, Nelson
For once dude, I think we are in total argeement. Hey, nother interesting idea for everyone to ponder. Due to the effects on the brain, actions, and certain chemical imbalances - some scientist belive love a type of mental condition liken to insanity.
Ha ha ha! Yes, sounds about right. But have you got a link? Or, in the immortal words of Laleen of the t.v show Lexx: "Love leaks puke juice" Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!
Love is NOT mental insanity. Lack of it is what is completly mental insanity. How can someone live without Love? NEEDS, in oder hand, can surely cause mental insanity. Need is commonly mistaken by love... Love, Nelson
First...... Awesome quote Xev, that's the stuff. Second, sorry I don't have a link - it was a Discovery Channel show entitled something like "Enraveling Love's Mysteries" Or "The Science of Love", Yeah I'm fairly sure the last one's it. Sorry ~ Cactus
Oh well Nelson, at least we can say we agreed on something once........ If you can't live without something, isn't it a need?
No prob, Cactus. I'll do some googling. Nelson: Oh yes it is. Quite close. No, the lack of love is not insane, not in the clinical sense. One can, but it is not human nature to do so. However, one can attempt to vanquish such desires. Great is he who can vanquish the need for love. Cactus: Here's another one, I love that band:
I could live without love. Without sex? Not a chance. Without love? Sure, if there's enough sex and intelligent conversation.
NO sex is not the most important thing, its companionship and surport. Oh and intelegent conversation, i can't belive how many stupid people there are in our world
Me too, my problem is: Give me sex and intelligent conversation, and I will fall in love. Stupid, I know. Sure thing, Cactus. Gotta disagree, Asguard. Sex is waaaaaay more important than companionship. Friendship is nice, though. Luckily, sex is compatible with friendship. The world would really, really suck if it wasn't.
I agree with that and i never said sex is not important but its not the most important thing (i mean if thats all theres allways your hand!)
that was surpost to be sort of joking but oh well Look if lust is all your after call a pro Me i much prefer love
I'm not sure that love can be achieved on the mortal plane that we now live upon. Perhaps a feeling of mutual trust and lust but not love like the media sensationally calls it. Love is held back until the afterlife whatever that may be.
Cactus, Love IS life... Xev, Love is within you. You project your Love in someone else. When you do that, you are likely to created a need and an attachment unless you can control it. This need is what creates insanity. Great is he who can find Love in his Heart. Tyler, See? love as you know, sexual attraction, is a NEED. Love in the Essential meaning is Life Itself! You just proved that you have a NEED instead of Love... Xev, I don't even need to comment, do I? Asguard, Totally agree with you!!

Robeson, It's incredible, but Love is possible to be achieved through self-awareness. That's because when you become more self-aware, you find Love in Its Essence in your own Heart... Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image! If you project It, you get away from this Essential Love and find this "common" love we have in our society. Most people project their Love. That's why we have this love in our society, as it's widely promoted. Love, Nelson
