How do you define love?

Robecology comments on Jun 8, 2019:

It's different from "like". It takes more time to develop. it might be stronger than liking Its' opposite is hate....the end of love is indifference....not hate. Hate is when you've been let down by the alleged love/lover. Indifference also takes more time to develop than hate.

Does anyone else hate the phrase "I love you" ?

Robecology comments on Jun 8, 2019:

"I love you" has definitely been "overplayed" in my life.. I love the scene; and the innuendo - in Ghost...when she said "I love you" and he said "ditto"... It's so popular that the "clip" has been immortalized; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LhkwiJowIUM

Spirituality in Film & Literature

Robecology comments on Jun 8, 2019:

The CBS TV series "God friended me" caught my eye because it came right after 20-20. Having watched a few chapters....I like the concept. The story line goes something like " a computer wizard "tags" an atheist/agnostic vocal podcast producer with folk who, at first, he doesn't see why someone named "god" on the internet/facebook would single this "tag" out as a "friend suggestion". But the podcaster seeks the person out...finds out how he's "connected" to the person....does something to "help" that person, and then the show ends...but not before a new "friend suggestion" pops up at the end of an episode. After several episodes, we see the podcaster re-connects with his father ( a very good and seasoned actor who plays a minister in a local church) a smart cutie (for the romance/eye-candy aspect/hook), an asian/middle-eastern computer wizard, and eventually the Computer wizard" who's playing "god" and proposing these weird "friend suggestions". Cute story. Not a bit #religulous but they don't ever "assume" the supernatural elements are either true nor "correct"...but they do point out that they are benevolent (almost beyond belief)

I don't want to call it a "dark age"...

That would be... -all of us speaking one language. -no borders -one economy -stabilized growth...in fact....no growth, the new word will be sustainability. -A population that's reached ZPG. -Little or no "religion". Charity still working - but not because an imaginary power demands it. -Most, if not all "diseases" cured. Anti-aging chemicals and genetic procedures allow us to stay fit and healthy decades longer. -No burning of fuels for energy. Not coal, not fossil fuels. Not hydrogen, not wood, not cow chips. -No need for "combustion"...except for entertainment. -We would even phase out nuclear. Geothermal's already in place in Iceland, for example; so I'm not talking about putting wind-generators or tidal-flow gens there unless they see that the transition would save them from tapping in to the potentially unstable source of geothermal in to the stable sources of wind and tide flow. When will we reach it? I'm guessing in anywhere from a few decades to 100+ years. We are getting close.

Good morning and happy Friday! Today's question: Do you think aliens are real?

Robecology comments on Jun 7, 2019:

I've talked about this many times. In a few words; Yes they're real; but no; we'll not likely talk to them, let alone meet them, any time soon. I'm sure that there's hundreds of millions, if not billions of habitable planets, a few million of which have evolved life, a few thousand of which have evolved advanced civilization, a few hundred of which...even in our galaxy, have evolved radio communication and interplanetary travel Now, Let's look at the odds of us even talking with them. Assume we've spent 100 years sending out Radio and TV signals. So right now, a civilization of aliens, say, up to 100 Light years (LY) away from us just got the signal and translated it to something they comprehend. Within 100 LY of us is 500 stars. Let's apply the 1 in 10 rule. Of the 500 1 in 10 have habitable planets. That's 50 of the 50, 1 in 10 are likely to have developed advanced life forms; that's 5. Of the 5, 1 in 10 have developed radio communications; that's now down to 0.5 star systems; within 100 LY...that are likely to have picked up an old radio or TV broadcast, and translated it. Do you see where I'm going with this? Watch; then comment... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SRoj3jK37Vc

Ignorance is a Choice

Robecology comments on Jun 7, 2019:

Say instead...I'm making progress - a little each day - on conquering TBI. You're talking to us. That's progress. Move forward. Don't wish it weren't so. It just hurts you to do so.

I'm sorry; but I must disagree. If the Congress starts closing in on DJT he'll just resign. He'll hand the reigns over to Pence; like Nixon did to Ford. That will throw us from the frying pan into the fire; because Pence will then pardon DJT. Pence is Trump's worshiper. His "do-boy". He'll simply pardon DJT....which would then make him eligible for retirement benefits....which would then allow him to go do his leisure thing whie we pay for it.... AND Pence would do his bidding... .AND the cabinet wouldn't change a thing. No. No impeachment. DJT wants that push so he can blame the congressmen and women on him quitting. Then if Pence pardons him....he would be eligible to run again in 2020 and perhaps even 2024. No!! Stop pushing impeachment! Play a little chess. Make a few mental moves ahead of him. That would be disaster for us. The only solution is to keep a tight rein on him...then vote him thoroughly and convincingly out in 2020. Beware. The Trump voter will be out in droves. They are blind to his misgivings. They will flood the polling booths in 2020. This is our best hope - to get out and vote him out in 2020.

Hitler conscientiously worked to kill millions. Do you think because he said "I believe" and "forgive me father" that he got in to heaven and the Jews he exterminated didn't? Oh...and in the words of Penn Jillette; What's to keep an atheist from killing, robbing, and murdering? Nothing. That's why an Atheist is more morally upright than a #religulous person; We do good because it feels good. It feels right. The #Religulous only do good because "god tells them to". http://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/file/get/2310350220?profile=original

I shared some thoughts in the Politics Category earlier.

If you call names instead of debating facts, you are #1. violating community standards. and #2. Not debating - you're arguing. Ask any debate coach. Google "debate rules". Once you name call you've - -admitted defeat -lose the debate -get no points...or if in a debate class, get an F. The rules are simple; -debate the issues. -don't make this personal. We're all here for the common good. As a fiscal conservative that also wants to see success in our government, accomplishment (MAGA) and efforts to reduce our deficii - yet not a believer in God....I think we're all on the same page. Teach me with references - don't degrade me with rudeness. I recommend you read this image; and perhaps save it, or at least tab it. You want to make your points as close to the top of the pyramid as possible.

Happy Hippy Wednesday.

Good morning, my lovelies :) I hope you're all doing well.

Good point about Aldi....it being a relatively new name to a great market...I hadn't a clue if the possessive S should be added or left off....so thanks for that. So let's define "peeve"...is it anger showing intolerance? Should we not have "peeves" to have a healthier mentality? I might have been guilty of misusing the Aldi's or Aldis "s" addition simply because I hadn't learned the wiser use. Perhaps there are those who comment that are simply not as wise as we are? Should we be "peeved" at their grammar faux-pas or should we politely try to educate them? As a 45 year teacher veteran....this is constantly a challenge for me! Let me sit on my hands, as well!

Can a potential romantic relationship move too slow?

Robecology comments on Jun 5, 2019:

The "waiting" game. Someone's playing it more than the other. "Waiting" to see if loneliness prompts initiating contact. It could be said that it's a wise game...or just a game...or a game for "players"....but it can be frustrating. Who's going to be more "upfront"? More "honest" ? More "forthright"? Who's going to look at being more "upfront" as too aggressive, too assertive, too anxious....and who's going to look at being "upfront" aa having healthy, strong feelings? Ugh...Games people play...it's the reason many are happily alone.

Is this appropriate for a first date?

We completely know her intentions...

Wow.

Robecology comments on Jun 4, 2019:

Three ways to respond to a personal "attack" !. Take them seriously and work to correct the issue in a positive way 2. Take them seriously and be offended and confused, feeling helpless and hopeless. 3. Don't take them seriously. They don't really know you ...and/or their opinions don't matter. Chose 1 and 3 as often as you can. Try to avoid reaction #2.

Here is a doctor with some interesting and valuable information for both men and women.

Robecology comments on Jun 4, 2019:

Not comfortable with an "alleged" doctor just talking with no data, no visuals. Call me "agnostic" in all areas...I "don't know" until you prove it to me....talk is cheap.

Jimmy Carter gets tenure at Emory University [thehill.com]

Robecology comments on Jun 4, 2019:

Wow; Carter, 94, who has taught at Emory for 37 years, was given tenured faculty appointment in four schools: the Emory College of Arts and Sciences, Oxford College, Candler School of Theology and Rollins School of Public Health. I would be so honored to be sitting in on any of his classes. Rare wisdom; still going strong....

No need to "apologize" then run without some sort of question...I feel....so....incomplete...without them :( An idea; ask...why are you here? then do more polls or surveys.... 1. For the dating -to find/meet a lover 2. For the social interaction - 3. A combination of both 4. Neither 1 nor 2....just keeping up on social views...don't like to comment.
