What's in a face?
I started a new topic & moved this to the Worldly Matters forum since it doesn't have much to do with philosophy. There's a difference between the vacant, has an IQ not much above some of the mentally retarded clients I used to take care of and the inhuman psychopath. Certainly. What I was getti...

I think the anti-gun lobby gets its martyrs in the form of 6 year olds who accidentally shoot themselves with dad's gun, or from the likes of Cho. That sort of 'martyrdom' only makes people want to support the irrational idea of gun control when, as I mentioned, the only result of that would be to ...

This thread seems to be mostly an opinionfest, so I thought I'd offer mine. I think at one time, long ago, it would have been a good idea to have more control of guns, but now it's way too late - at least in the US. When the country was first being set up there was a lot of concern not to give the f...

What Jason Looks Like
Big, almost kind of bearish, but not hairy. Kind of long face. Dark hair, pale skin, grayish (?) eyes, small hands, big feet. But I don't feel I'm anymore likely to be right than chance. At the time I published those descriptions on Genius-L I saw them whenever I read the people's words, so I had mo...

Hey Shardrol, I joined Genius-L right at the beginning, back in mid '97 (10 year anniversary of Genius is coming up in June) just like you did. Possibly because of how long ago it was, I cannot remember for certain how I got there. I found this place through a mysterious email from someone I didn't...

One of the major reasons why I could never have children is that I've never encountered a woman that seemed worthly of receiving my genes, and I dont claim to be absolutely perfect, their mental handicaps always left me feeling rather turned off, and not to mention the huge finanical responsbility,...

The Far Side of the World
I'm curious about why there are so many posters here from Australia, porportionally speaking. Is this forum somehow more well-known in Australia, or are you all acquaintances, or what? I'm just surprised that an internet forum would have noticeably more people from a particular part of the English-s...

I thought Alex Berzin's 'defense' of the Dalai Lama was the weakest part of his presentation. What he said, more or less, is that he just felt the Dalai Lama was the person of greatest spiritual attainment he had ever met - in spite of the fact that he had already agreed with the idea that unless we...

Maybe our hunting gathering ancestors were more nocturnal? Predators are often out at night; maybe you don't want to be sleeping when they're on the prowl. Or maybe it's that vampire blood from Eastern Europe. . . I would like to be a morning peprson, get up at sunrise, work all morning, have a 2-ho...

Re: Loner...
Anyway, yes, people go crazy from being completely isolated... Not always. Solitary retreat is part of some Buddhist practices. I know of an American woman who did a solitary retreat for 10 years, & I've met people who have also done retreats lasting several years where they had no contact with...
