I subscribe to Dish, and part of what they offer is Sirius digital music channels. About 100 channels, no commercials (except for Sirius' own), and each channel dedicated to a different type of music. Every variety of music one can imagine can be found (though if it were my company, I'd add a...

Hi, I just completed reading a very interesting article called "Love Thy Neighbor: The Evolution of In-Group Morality," by Professor John Hartung. Here is the link to the full article: http://members.aol.com/toexist/ltnhome.html His basic premise is that through the evolutionary processes...

We love our gran. She sits in the chair and keeps an eye on all of us. She makes sure we keep the windows shut when it's cold and open when it is warm. We don't mind her telling us what to do. She makes demands, but we made demands of her. She had a household to run for years and years, running...

I was horrified to hear of the UK government's plans to make child-care available in schools from eight until six. I submit there is a world of difference between 'care' and a mother's love and a good mother will tailor her work-routine to suit the needs of the child, and not the other way...

We all fall in love around the time of puberty and we can all recall the name of the loved one the rest of our lives. The beauty and joy of such love would last for a lifetime if given the chance, but sadly our self-seeking culture denies the value of pubic love, insisting that it is better to...

With my apologies in advance to Admin for whining, I’m going to come right out and say that too often I cannot quite find the Smiley I really need to put that special touch on a post. A few of those I need to articulate myself properly are: Barfing Smiley. I mean really, how does one...

That is the truth. It is a wonderful resource.

We have discussed about many things in this forum without mentioning about the definition of "love". So, what do you think love is all about?

I *LOVE* Ann Coulter! Today I was in a Barnes & Nobles when I saw http://www.townhall.com/acimgs/webimages/annblack.jpg latest book, How to Talk to a Liberal. I'd only heard of Ann Coulter and seen her on cable news, so I decided to pick up the book and sit down with it for a few minutes. This...

Debunked! : You guys will love this! I just read this in this month's SCIAM magazine: Nice. :smile: Edit:by Ivan: No, really not. Only excerpts from copyright protected materials are allowed. I have edited this post accordingly. Please purchase the complete story...

Do you believe in love? sometimes i wonder... is it just a chemical reaction in the brain? hormones creating certain feelings by sending singnals to certain points of your brain? i am not quite sure how this works. It would be helpful if someone could try to explain.. :redface...

How about the debut by Brad Penny? 8 IP, 2 H, 0 ER. Gagne looked tired as hell tonight. Tracy should have let Penny go the distance.

Something came up on the TV that made me wonder about this. I understand that we can account for certain aspects of the feelings of love that humans experience. First, what is the limit of this understanding. Next, how do we account for the many [philosophically] different types of love...

The Czechs and Poles are looking forward to the placement of defensive missile bases/radar systems as partners in the US’s “Star wars” program. Welcome aboard!

Do you know anything about the history if love :redface: ? Post here ==>

"Just because its not science does not necessarily mean its a bad thing... like Love for example..." RPF So what exactly is love? Love of science? Love of a girl/guy? Anyone like to explain this? :approve:

Describe your experience of "falling in love" :-p :confused: :-p

Can it bring me happiness then ? Is it true that if I have money, I can buy a many things even someone to work for me ? Or if someone has money, do I have to follow him ? And if I had a lot of money and someone is after me, what will I do ? His love is untrue right ? I know material life...

Edit. my ideas are incomplete.

I Love You ******* ;) I know you’ve already told or will tell anybody whom you consider as your Prince or Princess “I Love You”! Hmm…but the problem is that…when we first want to tell him/her…the heart beats extremely…and we feel very nervous! As it’s a different and most exciting...

For whom or what would you sacrifice your life? I believe that few of us will face a situation where we would willingly and overtly give up our lives, yet each of us has many years of potential sacrifice for service to others.

hi I'm new, I'm a high school dropout and have a love for science. nice to meet you.

why is love or the concept of love our automatic responce to life , why not hate or fear or anything else , i believe that love is in us as a programe it drives us , it needs us but does it make the world go around or is that just money (ha ha) , love for all the joy and fear it gives us i...

I came to a conclusion awhile back that pain is the only thing in life that is worth living for. Think of it, we base our survival by adapting to situations that cause us even the slightest amount of pain. Whether it is physical or mental pain the decisions we make in life are based on avoiding...

Sounds like a silly topic, but what are your opinions of the X-Men (early 90's cartoons, movie series, characters, anything)? What started this up was simply a discussion among friends that evolved from Astronomy (don't ask me how it happened). A majority of people I know either hate the...

I have the difficulty to know which god is real God. There are so many options! If God is real and he loves me, why not he provides a better way for me to know him? Because i don't think bible is undoubtedly the only credible source for me to know God. Moreover, even i accept...

The overexaggerated "goodness" of amore love What is an apparently evident human motivation is always far from the reality of the dynamics. In frequently mentioning the forces ascribed to human behavior and human actions popular society frequently refers to have the elaborate...

Recently i visited an uncle who is a pastor. I've also been trying to learn more about religion and spirituality in general. we got in a little argument that left me terribly unnerved. aside from he's comments that i wouldn't understand this and i wouldn't understand that, and remararks...

I love $, but the bible says love of money is evil, hence, i must be evil ? Correct? Money is so important, without it i am going to starve, together with my children. I love money, and sometimes do feel Greedy for it, is it OK according to social norm ? [?]

Is there such a thing as true love at first sight, or does true love take time? I personally feel that love is something that grows and is not instant, although others would disagree because of their own experiences...love is on my mind as I have officially become engaged to the love of my life...

ok probably an old theory but what is love? some people say it is a virus, comes on strong at the start, gradually goes away, may kick in a again a bit later then start going away again. etc etc. who has another explanation.

Evolution Click on the link... You'll loveit almost as much as I do..

I have often said "I love you", to children, people I desire, my parents, even aunts and uncles and one or two friends. But what is love? Does it mean I like you a lot and/or I want you a lot? Will someone tell me what love is; I don't mind the explanation being evolutionary and scientific.

In a charming bit of irony, Fox won an appeal against a whistle-blowing reporter who threatened to report pressure from Fox to air what she knew to be false information. Fox's argument? "There is no hard, fast, and written rule against deliberate distortion of the news... the FCC position...
