Who Can Deny Love...Who?
Who Can Deny Love...Who?
Who Can Deny Love...Who?
Everyone at some point in their lives has received or given their love. Even the most hateful person in the world, at some point his anger would disapate and would feel love even if only an instant.
Christians claim that God is Love, and seemingly enough is believable.
What is Love? Humanity, creation, and every living creature is love
Where is Love? In the minds of most people
Who is Love? I am love
How is Love? Interrelations with people
When is Love? At the time it is shown, felt, or expressed
Why is Love? To feel good
Love is beauty displaying itself through humanity and creation.

Re: Who Can Deny Love...Who?
Who? Me.
But who can deny that this thread is meaningful or rational... Who? Me, again.
It ought to have been posted in the Worldly Matters thread, Donna.

Re: Who Can Deny Love...Who?
Mensa says: I wrote it to be meaningful and rational. No matter where it is posted it still carries the same meaning. Why should anyone really give two shits as to where it is posted? However it is a worldly affair I grant you that, and it really has nothing to do with genius, so if Dan thinks it should go into the other area, then it shall be.Kelly Jones wrote:Who? Me.

So Kelly, since you deny that this thread is meaningful or rational, please explain to me how this thread is meaningless and irrational.

Re: Who Can Deny Love...Who?
Donna, the post was full of incoherence and inconsistencies of reasoning. I'll show you, but I'm guessing this will make little difference.
Throughout the post, there is little thought given to any statement. It's like much of your contributions to the Genius Forum, it belongs in the Worldly Matters forum. Please contain your prolific output to that place. Thanks in advance.
.
Incoherent, vague and emotional. What is being denied: the existence of? The validity of the arguments for? The utility and helpfulness of? The gist of the title means that no one can, but since there is no clarity to give any direction as to how you deal with the afore-mentioned elements, the entire post becomes essentially without proof or meaning.Who Can Deny Love...Who?
Advance assumption prior to any definition of love. Indicative of poor reasoning. And, even if the paragraph were true, so what? This isn't indicative that love is a good thing. You haven't dealt with the topic of morality, or subjectivity in moral choices, either.Everyone at some point in their lives has received or given their love. Even the most hateful person in the world, at some point his anger would disapate and would feel love even if only an instant.
This is also vague. It could mean that the event of Christians' claiming this is believable, which is neither here nor there. It could mean that the claim itself could be believed based on their claiming it. It could mean the claim could be believed in itself. But there is no definition of God, nor Love, so again the statement is an advance assumption prior to any definitions. Unnecessary.Christians claim that God is Love, and seemingly enough is believable.
If that's your definition, it's already internally contradictory, because you've mentioned the existence of the most hateful person in the world, who is presumably a part of humanity.What is Love? Humanity is love
This contradicts the previous sentence, since clearly humanity is not everywhere.Where is Love? Everywhere
Since the most hateful person in the world, and all hateful persons, are also part of everyone, there is a contradiction here also.Who is Love? Everyone
Vague.How is Love? Intercourse
Simultaneously with hate, presumably.When is Love? Constantly
Here again there is the absence of any thought given to ethical choices and the subjectivity of same. And, one could also argue that the hateful person feels good - which is an actual and realistic phenomenon.Why is Love? To feel good
Repetitions of previous errors.Love is beauty displaying itself through humanity.

mensa-maniac,
If you want your posts to appear in the main forum then you're going to need to provide some serious reasoned argument.

Compose on an offline standalone BBcode editor* first, then copy and paste into a forum reply window. Not that I am encouraging you to waste your breath.menses-maniac wrote:Mensa says: I'm thoroughly perturbed that I just lost an excellent response to Kellys post here, I'm sick and tired of this place timing out on me all the darn time.

* Such as Kevin's Forum Post Editor Lite or Pawsoft Fass. Both are freeware.

Mensa says: Kevin, do you believe that everyone who posts in the main forum provides serious reasoned argument, and if you do why do you? Considering it's not true. I see plenty of opinion.Kevin Solway wrote:mensa-maniac,

Re: Who Can Deny Love...Who?
I'm a firm beliver in the power of love. But sometimes love comes in the form of compassion...and compassion can be a rude awakening...
