@AliceTeller @wjfrisby If you want more love in the world, you must create more reasons to feel it. We evolved emotions. They’re explicable.

@AliceTeller @wjfrisby William. Do not confuse understanding via analogy with causal relation. All emotions are reactions to change.

@curtdoolittle 3/ “The GDP of love”. How does a country produce love? How convert it to other forms? How sublimate/store/spend/waste it?

Children need comfort. Solutions require knowledge and explanation. Like I said. Love changed (yet again) because policy did.

@curtdoolittle If it comforts you to reduce complex things to something you can hold in your hand and examine, enjoy yourself.

But I didn’t say A=B. I said that your emphasis on reaction will not assist us in changing the cause. Love has causes.

@curtdoolittle Defeat? Yes, I give up. You can say A=B all day, as cleverly as you wish, that doesn’t make it so.

Wishful Thinkers as Hosts for Deceit

[W]ishful thinkers all, we are easy prey for the literature of deceit whose plots promise free riding in a universe whose red queen we struggle to race. We long for suggestion. We long for entertainment. We long for respite that our Myths, Religion, Literature and philosophy provide for us. But we must not confuse fantasy with reality. When the curtains close, and the house lights rise, nature still awaits us.
