Re: the more entrenched injustices of the world...
Laird: The more unethically a product is produced, the greater the rate of tax/duty on it would be, with the aim of making more ethically produced products more appealing price-wise to the consumer. Sapius: So an unethical company/product may profit as much as they like, but they would have to pay ...

His post (below) is clearly him throwing down the gauntlet, and welcoming all and sundry to pick it up. Oh nonsense. His post was clearly him trying to generally disparage the opinions and positions of others. It doesn't deserve a serious response. But instead of picking it up, you cry outrage and ...

Alright Carl, I think we get the idea. We're all a bunch of try-hard wannabes who love the sound of our own voices but have nothing well thought-out and of any worth to actually talk about.

Re: Making peace with femininity
I’m just curious; [being unmarried has] drawbacks such as? Well, the main and obvious one is that you don't have someone to share romantic/sexual love and affection with, which for most people are very satisfying and rewarding things to share. The other one that comes to mind is that in practical...

Re: A world without war
Sapius, I really appreciate your support on this. I've become a bit fatigued of late so it was nice to have someone take up the reins so to speak.

Beliefs are very deep-rooted alignments and are not easily changed. You may choose to believe what you wish if you are capable, but thinking that you believe something is not necessarily believing. Your "sentiments" or psychological dynamics will elucidate what you actually believe if you...

Yeah, Laird, there are a few women I love very much. I am a single guy, currently not seeing anyone. Being unmarried has many drawbacks, I can tell you. Mate, you don't have to tell me - I'm living it too. When I was in my twenties, I had three long-term intimate relationships that mattered. They d...
